Additional Notes

  • The Hyundai i20 BC3 (EU) brake fluid fill level for the 1.0 T-GDI 48V-Hybrid variants is defined as "between min and max" rather than a fixed volume, meaning the reservoir is serviced by topping up within the marked range on the reservoir body rather than by a measured quantity.
  • The i20 N 1.6 T-GDI is the only configuration in these specifications to carry an explicit capacity figure, listed at 0.7-0.8 liter for the hydraulic brake system.
  • All three configurations share a check interval of 15,000 km, though the 1.0 T-GDI 48V-Hybrid variants pair that distance interval with a 12-month time limit, while the i20 N 1.6 T-GDI specification states only the 15,000 km distance without a corresponding time interval.
  • The change interval across all three configurations is 30,000 km, with the 1.0 T-GDI 48V-Hybrid variants additionally specifying a 24-month time limit alongside the distance figure, and the i20 N 1.6 T-GDI listing only the distance-based interval.
  • All specifications apply under normal use conditions, meaning the stated check and change intervals are not adjusted for severe or demanding driving scenarios within the data provided.
  • The 74 kW and 88 kW versions of the 1.0 T-GDI 48V-Hybrid carry identical brake fluid specifications, indicating no differentiation in brake system servicing requirements between the two power outputs of that engine family.
