Hyundai has given its Bayon compact SUV a facelift, bringing a fresh look to the exterior and refinements inside.
The i20-based model launched in 2021 and competes alongside the Ford Puma and Skoda Kamiq.
Exterior changes see a new front end that aligns the Bayon more closely with the Hyundai Kona. A new central LED daytime running light spans the width of the car's front bumper, which has also been reprofiled for a more distintive look. Similiar tweaks are found at the rear of the new Bayon, with the new look complemented by fresh alloy wheel designs.
The interior has been updated with the fitment of a 10.25-inch central touchscreen as standard, while a new digital instrument cluster is available. There's also new LED interior lighting.
Hyundai has equipped the new Bayon with a suite of driver assistance features. Among those available are Lane Following Assist (LFA), which works to keep the vehicle centred in its lane, blind spot monitoring and and Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA), which first sounds an alarm, then, if necessary, applies the brakes to prevent a collision from occurring. FCA includes car, pedestrian, and cyclist detection, as well as Junction Turning, which can apply the brakes to prevent a collision with an oncoming car when turning at an intersection.
Another advanced feature, Navigation-based Smart Cruise Control (NSCC), uses data from the vehicle’s navigation system to adjust speed autonomously when driving on a highway or expressway.
Hyundai has not confirmed when the new Bayon will go on sale in the UK.
