Hyundai Portugal and Miguel Oliveira together create a special limited i20 series

Anonim

Since the beginning of the connection between Hyundai Portugal and Miguel Oliveira, in 2018, both “dreamed” of creating a special series inspired by the Portuguese pilot. Now this “dream” has come true with the arrival of Hyundai i20 Miguel Oliveira.

Limited to 88 units, this exclusive i20 series is equipped with a 1.0 horsepower engine and features exclusive 17” alloy wheels, front and rear sensors, full LED headlamps, dual exhaust output, tinted rear windows, pedals in aluminium, sport upholstery and smart key.

In addition, the i20 Miguel Oliveira is also presented in an exclusive color, the “Intense Blue” chosen by the Portuguese driver, a logo that allows the identification of the limited series number of 88 units, the headrest of the sports seats and the mats with the number 88.

On the headrests, the number 88 “denounces” this version.

According to Hyundai, the Portuguese pilot was involved in the entire development process of this limited and exclusive series, which is now available for ordering on the i20migueloliveira.hyundai.pt website.

Whoever buys the Hyundai i20 Miguel Oliveira will not only be entitled to an exclusive gift kit (which includes, among others, the pilot's official products, a t-shirt, a mug, a cap, a key ring and a replica of the helmet of the GP of Portugal 2021) as you will have the opportunity to choose the number of your i20 Miguel Oliveira, being able to choose between the 2 and the 87.

The Hyundai i20 Miguel Oliveira is a car for everyone, but at the same time exclusive for having only 88 units customized with what I like. Since the beginning of my relationship with Hyundai Portugal, in 2018, I was still in Moto2, which we wanted to create together something unique and differentiating. The Hyundai i20 Miguel Oliveira combines Hyundai's DNA with my identity, which is spread throughout the model.

First and last units already have destination

While unit 88 in this special series was awarded to Miguel Oliveira himself, the first unit will be auctioned in a solidarity initiative designed by the brand and its ambassador.

The auction is scheduled for the end of October and the amount that is bid above the commercial value of the Hyundai i20 Miguel Oliveira (21 900 euros) will be doubled by Hyundai Portugal and donated, in full, to the social solidarity movement “Race for Good” , an organization founded by André Villas-Boas and which has an exclusive partnership with Hyundai.

About the launch of this special series, Sérgio Ribeiro, CEO of Hyundai Portugal, said: “In addition to your author's note and full involvement in the construction and customization of this edition, the launch of the Hyundai i20 Miguel Oliveira will also have a solidary aspect that it makes us both proud.”
