39+ Hyundai i20 Cars for Sale in South Africa

Hyundai’s i20 has carved out a familiar patch in South Africa’s fiercely contested B-segment, rubbing shoulders with the Volkswagen Polo, Toyota Starlet, and Suzuki Swift. It’s a market where price and low fuel bills matter more than badge envy or wild features. Every one of the 26 listings you’ll find is petrol-powered and pre-owned, with everything from old-school manuals to dual-clutch autos in the mix. You could get in for as little as R79,500—stone-cold entry-level—or spend up to R309,995 for something fresh and barely run in, still undercutting some new-car rivals on spec. That median price just shy of R190k? It whispers what most local buyers already know: real value means hunting the used bins, especially when there’s not a single new i20 up for grabs.

The 1.2 Motion is everywhere—11 out of those 26 cars—spanning R109,500 to R249,995, with model years from 2010 to 2025. That’s a lot of years and a lot of choice if you pack smart. You’re looking at average mileages around 100,921 km, which is honest Joburg and Durban school-run stuff. Want an auto? The 1.4 Premium A/T sits up top at R249,900 to R309,995, ticking the boxes for urban buyers who’d rather not row their own gears. Against the Starlet, you’ll get a more polished cabin and extra gearbox options; over the Swift, a bit more room to stretch. No new stock means the used market is where the action is, and for buyers who care about year and spec, that matters.
