Hyundai Motor UK have just announced to MotorMartin the pricing and specification of their new i10, the latest generation of the multi award winning city car, which goes on sale on the 18th January.
Arriving at its 3rd Generation, the all new i10 is a comprehensive upgrade over previous models, with substantial changes regarding exterior and interior design, equipment and driving dynamics. In fact, it could be said to be a brand new model from the ground up offering technology, segment leading connectivity and safety features and even a full 5 seat configuration when many in its segment only offer 4 seat models.
Evolving from the previous generation the i10 has increased proportions, with its visual stance improved by a lowered roof (20 mm), wider body (20 mm) and longer wheelbase (40mm). These enhancements can be complemented by newly-designed optional 16-inch alloy wheels, resulting in what Hyundai describe as an energetic and agile look.
Further changes have occurred with the i10’s stylish interior design repositioning the model when compared to the previous generation, without losing any of the i10’s reputation for real world convenience and usability. Indeed, the entry level S specification is no longer available meaning that you can now enjoy the increased specification of SE trim at the starting point of the i10 range.
Hyundai have shared the following information with MotorMartin regarding the latest engine and specifications of the all new i10:
The i10 SE 1.0 MPi 67PS 5 speed manual is available from £12,495 offering a fantastic level of standard equipment including DAB radio, 3.8” display, Bluetooth, air conditioning, electric windows, leather steering wheel and gear lever, electric mirror adjustment and cruise control.
