Design & Presence

The Hyundai i10 wears its city‑car brief with confidence — compact, upright styling that looks purposeful rather than toy‑like. At about 3.67 metres long and 1.68 metres wide it slips into parking bays with ease while still managing a friendly, modern face. Small details such as sculpted headlights and crisp character lines give it personality without trying too hard.

Interior & Usability

The cabin is straightforward and well organised, with controls placed where they’re easy to reach during traffic‑light sprints. Materials are mostly hard‑wearing plastics but the fit and finish are neat and surfaces that touch most often feel resilient. A standard touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto keeps smartphone mirroring simple and higher trims add nicer cloths and useful storage spots.

Space & Everyday Practicality

The i10’s practical side is its strongest suit: a 5‑door layout and a 252‑litre boot that swallows weekly shopping or a couple of medium suitcases. Fold the rear seats and the cargo area expands to a claimed 1,050 litres, enough for a flat‑pack weekend or extra sports kit. Rear‑seat legroom is modest — adults are comfortable for short hops but taller passengers will feel the pinch on long motorway runs. At just over a tonne curb weight the car is light enough to feel nimble in town and makes manoeuvring a no‑nonsense affair.

Driving & Handling

The driving experience is tuned for the city: light steering, a tight turning circle and a soft suspension that soaks up common urban bumps without pitching into corners. Engine choice matters — the 1.0 T‑GDI with about 90 hp and a 0–100 km/h time around 11.4 s makes motorway overtakes confident, while the 63 hp units need roughly 15–18 s to reach 100 km/h and are best kept to urban duty. Three‑cylinder engines add a characteristic buzz at higher revs but overall composure and predictable handling make daily driving relaxed rather than sporty.

Efficiency/Consumption & Range

Fuel consumption is a strong suit, with combined figures from roughly 4.9 to 5.5 L/100 km depending on engine and gearbox, which translates into sensible running costs for city and mixed driving. A 36‑litre tank paired with those figures gives a real‑world range of around 650–730 km on a full tank under typical mixed use, so long runs are possible without constant refuelling. CO2 output sits in the low triple‑digits (about 110–124 g/km), which helps with taxes and fleet considerations in many markets. For buyers focused on economy and low running costs the i10 is a pragmatic, economical choice rather than a performance car.

Assistance & Infotainment

Safety kit is up‑to‑date for the segment, with Hyundai’s driver‑assistance package available including autonomous emergency braking, lane‑keeping aid and driver‑attention alerts that reduce the risk of everyday fender‑benders. Infotainment is practical and user‑friendly with smartphone mirroring, Bluetooth and intuitive menus; higher trims add larger displays and extra connectivity features. Parking sensors and a rear camera make city manoeuvres simpler and the overall tech level focuses on usefulness rather than gadgetry.

Who is it for?

The i10 suits city dwellers, first‑time buyers and small families who prioritise low running costs, easy parking and reliable everyday practicality over outright space or performance. Those who do significant motorway miles or need regular room for adults in the back will find more comfort in a bigger car, but for urban commuting the i10 delivers more than its footprint suggests. With a choice of 1.0 and 1.2 petrol engines, manual or automatic gearboxes and power ranging roughly from 63 to 90 hp, the i10 covers most practical needs in a compact, economical package.
