| Home Hyundai / List of Hyundai Bayon Models without Timing Belt
The Hyundai Bayon is a subcompact SUV car (B-segment in Europe) manufactured by the South Korean marque Hyundai. It was introduced in 2021 as a more affordable alternative to the Kona, which is also based on the Hyundai i20 hatchback platform. This entry-level SUV is powered with mild hybrid engines, discarding diesel engines altogether. It has numerous driving aids (including semi-autonomous driving thanks to Hyundai SmartSense technology) and also enjoys the dimensions of the Kona.
The Bayon is sold with standard turbocharged gasoline engines or with 48-volt mild hybridization. There are also two types of transmissions; the intelligent 6iMT manual or a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox called 7DCT.
The idea that Hyundai is pursuing with the Bayon is to increase the offer in the B-SUV segment, even if it means cannibalizing its own products. This sector is continually evolving thanks to consumers’ preference, so Hyundai wants to position itself with several different models to compete against vehicles such as the Dacia Duster, Nissan Juke, Seat Arona or Opel Crossland.
However, the idea of a brand having two subcompact SUVs —three if we count the Hyundai Creta, although this model is aimed at other markets— in the same segment for sale is not new, and brands such as Volkswagen with the T-Roc and T-Cross and Opel with the Crossland and Mokka do it, although in these two cases, there are differences in size between the two vehicles.
There is only one generation of this crossover.
