Hyundai i20 (2008 - PB) 1.6 CRDI 90 hp — mass-market diesel engine of the passenger segment of the Hyundai Motor Group group (Корея, 1967).

The 2008 generation — first-generation CDI/TDI/HDi diesels with relatively simple ECU protection; OBD reading works directly.
The Hyundai range covers compacts, saloons, crossovers, SUVs and commercial vehicles (HD). The Hyundai diesel range is shared with Kia and Genesis within the group.
The Hyundai community in Eastern Europe has a large pool of ready-made Stage files. Within Hyundai Motor Group, ECUs are partly shared, so Hyundai files often work on Kia. Low-output Hyundai engines are city units, and Stage 1 is safe. On naturally aspirated Hyundai engines, the main effect is on throttle response.
