Used Hyundai i20 Towbar

The Hyundai i20 is a small city hatchback and Hyundai did not offer a factory-fitted towbar for it, nor is it type-approved for towing a trailer in the conventional sense for this class of vehicle. Aftermarket towbars were sold by third-party suppliers for some generations, but you are very unlikely to find a used i20 towbar being stripped from a dismantled car at a breaker's yard, as they were rarely fitted. If you need towing capability you may be looking at the wrong vehicle or the wrong part, and it is worth reconsidering whether a towbar-equipped used part is realistically available for this model.

It is theoretically possible that an individual owner fitted an aftermarket towbar to their i20 before the car was scrapped, and a breaker could occasionally have one removed from such a vehicle. However, this would be rare, non-standard, and the towbar would be specific to whichever aftermarket bracket was used rather than a genuine Hyundai part. If you do find one, confirm with the breaker that it matches your exact generation and body style before purchasing, as aftermarket towbar brackets are not interchangeable across different i20 generations.

The i20 ran in a first generation from 2008 to 2014, a second generation from 2014 to 2020, and a third generation from 2020 onwards, each on a completely different platform and body structure. Because a towbar bracket bolts to the rear chassis and underbody, parts are entirely generation-specific and not interchangeable across these boundaries. Given that used i20 towbars are not a standard breaker's yard item regardless of generation, your best approach is to contact a specialist aftermarket towbar supplier rather than a vehicle dismantler.

Body style does affect towbar fitment because the rear subframe and bumper mounting points differ between body styles, and any bracket must match your specific variant. The first-generation i20 was offered in both 3-door and 5-door versions in the UK, while later generations moved to 5-door only. That said, since factory towbars were never part of the i20's specification, this distinction is most relevant if you are sourcing an aftermarket bracket and should be confirmed with the towbar supplier using your registration number.

Trim level does not affect towbar fitment on the i20, as differences between grades such as S, SE, Premium, or Active relate to interior equipment and cosmetic features rather than the rear bodyshell or underbody structure. Any towbar bracket is determined by generation and body style, not trim. Since used towbars are not a standard stripped part from i20 breakers, trim level is unlikely to be a meaningful consideration in your search.

If you need a towbar for your i20, your best route is to contact a specialist aftermarket towbar retailer such as Witter, PCT, or Brink and quote your registration, as they can confirm whether a type-approved bracket exists for your specific variant. A vehicle breaker is not the right source for this part given how rarely it was fitted to i20s being scrapped. If you have arrived at this search looking for a different rear-end component such as a rear bumper, tow-eye cover, or trailer socket wiring harness, those are parts you can legitimately request a quote for from a Findapart breaker.
