Background

Hyundai started development of the i10 to replace the Hyundai Atos, also known as the Santro.

The development for the concept was code-named Hyundai PA. The car was targeted primarily

at the Indian market and intended for production in India, given the popularity of hatchback

subcompacts in the country.

The i10 has a large gaping air-dam, pulled-back headlamps, chrome-lined grill, integrated clear

lens fog lamps, a bonnet that has a clam shell hint and a rear window with an upswept kink.

The tailgate has a chrome-lined boot-release handle and an integrated roof spoiler on the top- end

versions.

Overall length (3,565 mm) and wheelbase (2,380 mm) are identical to the Santro with slightly

more interior space; Ergonomic design was intended to accommodate tall drivers and increasing

rear knee room. The width has been increased (and front and rear track) by 70 mm (2.8 in) formore shoulder room. The height has been reduced by 40 mm (1.6 in). Boot space at 225 litres

(7.9 cu ft) is significantly lower than that of Getz.

In September 2010, Hyundai introduced a facelift for the i10. Sporting an innovative design look

and an array of contemporary features.

Exteriors

Hyundai introduced an all-new front-end design inspired by the Fluidic Sculpture designlanguage. Its centrepiece is a new radiator grill which features chrome detailing. It also boasts a

 bracing set of 3D wraparound headlamps with multi-reflector chrome surround fog lamps. The

 bumpers have also been redesigned with a new front grille to lend a more aggressive look.

It also features a micro roof antenna, body colour door handles and the side indicator lights

incorporated on the outside rear view mirror. The rear of new i10 boasts of sleek and elongatedtail lamps, bold rear bumper with body coloured inserts as well as rear bumper reflectors and

trendy full wheel cover.

Interiors

The new i10 has a two-tone beige and light brown colour in certain markets. To impart a moreaesthetic appeal, the interiors have been accentuated with chrome and silver accents at multiple

 points. Other interesting design features like metal finish centre console, new instrument cluster,

 blue interior illumination, etc., have been added to offer a more luxurious and ergonomicexperience.

Apart from this, the i10 brings in a host of highly innovative design features like first- in-segment gear shift indicator display (M/T only), digital fuel indicator, Bluetooth, steering

mounted audio & bluetooth controls and multiple power outlets

Engines

i10 iRDE 1.1

The i10 was launched with a 1.1 litre 65 bhp (48 kW; 66 PS) I4 iRDE engine - the same motor

used in the Kia Picanto and Hyundai Atos Prime/Santro Xing  but with lower CO2 emissions.

i10 Kappa 1.2

The i10 also comes with a 1.2 litre petrol Euro-5 compliant engine (called the Kappa engine),with the same CO2 emissions as the 1.1L version. The spark plug of the 1.2L is non-standard.

i10 Diesel

A 1.1 litre 3-cylinder diesel CRDi variant is available in Europe but has not yet been introducedinto the UK and Indian market.

i10 Electric

Main article: Hyundai BlueOn 

Hyundai recently launched i10 Electric in Delhi Auto Expo and is expected to be available in

India by 2011.[3]

 The i10-based electric car is called BlueOn.[4]

 

i10 Kappa-2 1.2

In 2010 Hyundai launched a facelifted version of the i10 in India which uses a Kappa 2 engine

with VTVT Technology to further improve performance of this engine. Hyundai engineers have

taken the existing 1.2-litre 4-cylinder Kappa engine and added VTVT (Variable Timing andValve Train). The i10 is the first small car in the country to receive variable valve timing making

it, on paper at least, the most sophisticated 1.2-litre engine in its segment (the Honda Jazz also

has an i-VTEC head but is a segment higher). This system, working on the intake side, helps in

altering the valve timing and lift according to the situation and thus improves low-end responsesand fuel efficiency. VTVT hasn’t increased the horsepower  and it is still rated at 80 PS (59 kW;

79 hp). However the engine is reported to feel more refined and show very little vibration athigher revs

Accolades and feats

Hyundai i10 was widely recognized as "Car of the Year 2008" by various automotive magazines

The amount of safety features varies from market to market. While most countries have the i10

equipped with airbags for all passengers, the entry-level 1.1 manual transmission model in the

Philippines can be sold without airbags.

Since launch and as of August 2009, electronic stability control (ESC) is still a special-order

option for UK spec cars which prevents a full 5-star EuroNCAP score.

Hyundai Xcent

Main article: Hyundai Xcent 

Prior to the official unveiling of the Grand i10, Hyundai Motor India Ltd. revealed that a sedan variant will be launched in 2014.

[34] The new sedan, called the Xcent, was revealed on February

2014 and will hit showrooms on March 2014 to compete with the Honda Amaze and Maruti

Suzuki Swift Dzire.[35][36]

 

Reception

The European i10 was met with very positive reviews. John McIlroy of  What Car? magazine

gave the car a perfect five-star rating, commenting that it "represents a major step forward overits predecessor –  to the point where it's an extremely tempting alternative to a VW Up, and not

 just on price."[37]

 Piers Ward of  Top Gear  gave the i10 a score of 8 out of 10, with his verdict being: "Yet another quality car from the Koreans. Cheap price, good design and with minimal

compromise."[38]

 Matt Burt of   Autocar  gave it four-and-a-half out or five stars, calling it "one of

the most accomplished and well-rounded offerings in the city car segment, and has road mannersthat would embarrass a few much larger (and more expensive) vehicles."

[39] Andrew English of

The Daily Telegraph also gave the car four out of five stars, describing it as "Clever and quite a

8/10/2019 Hyundai i 10

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/hyundai-i-10 18/18

nice little car. Reasonable comfort, ride, handling and well put together, though not the most

economical. It's certainly the best car Hyundai makes and wouldn't be disgraced as the family's

main transport."[40]

 

Awards

The Grand i10 was awarded the 2014 Golden Steering Wheel in the hatchback category.[41]

 It

was also awarded "Car of the Year" and "Entry Hatchback of the Year" at the 2014  NDTV Car

and Bike Awards.[42]
