Hyundai is rumoured to announce its return to the World Rally Championship for 2013 at the Paris Motor Show at the end of this month.
The South Corean car manufacturer is apparently working on a WRC-version of the i20, powered by a 1,6 litre turbocharged engine.
Hyundai has competed in the World Rally Championship some ten years ago with the Accent, and got some good results with Kenneth Eriksson, Alister McRae and Juha Kankunnen.
Hyundai would join Citroën, Ford and Volkswagen. Toyota will run the Yaris with the Super 2000 specifications, but the Japanse carmaker is also rumoured to plan a WRC model for 2014.
The Paris Motor Show will take place from September 29 to October 14.
