The Hyundai HB20 is a subcompact car produced by South Korean manufacturer Hyundai Motor Company since 2012 in Brazil. It is the first and only Hyundai model strategically developed and produced exclusively for the Brazilian market. Offered with a range of flex-fuel engines, it was not exported to other Latin American countries until 2016, when it began to be sold in Paraguay and Uruguay,[1] and eventually in Mexico and Colombia in 2022.

"HB" stands for "Hyundai Brasil", while the number "20" is the company’s characterization for vehicles in this segment in line with the similarly sized Hyundai i20.[2]
