KBC 2023 Contestant Mayank Awarded Hyundai i20 After Winning Rs 1 Crore

He is the youngest contestant on the show to win the Rs 1 crore prize

• The i20 facelift was launched in September 2023 in India.

• It is available in five broad variants: Era, Magna, Sportz, Asta, and Asta (O).

• Offered with a single 1.2-litre petrol powertrain.

• Features on board the i20 include a 10.25-inch touchscreen, auto AC, and 6 airbags.

It’s been a few months since India’s popular TV game show, Kaun Banega Crorepati (KBC), started airing in its fifteenth season. The show, hosted by none other than Amitabh Bachchan, recently got its youngest winner, Mayank, to bag the Rs 1 crore cheque, which also got him a Hyundai i20 as an award. Early on in this season, Jaskaran Singh, the first contestant to win Rs 1 crore, also got the Hyundai Exter as a bonus prize.

While Mayank quit the quiz after winning Rs 1 crore, had he played on and won Rs 7 crore, he would have bagged the new Hyundai Verna instead. That said, we don’t know the variant of the premium hatchback that was handed over to the winner, though we suspect it to be the fully loaded Asta (O) trim.
