FactThe Getz's name isn't really a word — Hyundai built it by mashing 'get' and 'it' together, reportedly meant to read as 'achieved by desirability.'
The Hyundai Getz (model code TB) is a supermini built from 2002 to 2011 in South Korea (2004 to 2009 in India) as a three- or five-door hatchback, on the Hyundai-Kia TB platform related to the Hyundai Atos, Kia Picanto and Hyundai Accent (LC). It was sold as the Hyundai Click in South Korea, the Hyundai TB in Japan, the Dodge Brisa in Venezuela and the Inokom Getz in Malaysia, and an electric version was built in Australia as the Blade Electron. At launch there were three petrol engines, a 1.1-litre, a 1.3-litre and a 1.5-litre, and one diesel, a 1.5-litre three-cylinder unit licensed from VM Motori; after the facelift in 2005 a new 1.4-litre petrol replaced the 1.3-litre, and a new 1.5-litre diesel with variable geometry turbocharger was introduced.
