Hyundai i10 Grand Highlights & Static Analysis - Features, Specs, Price Comparison

Hyundai launched the new Grand-i10 with some exciting features and updates and more importantly a new 2nd generation CRDi diesel engine.

Highlights of the new i10 includes premium interiors and bit more space in the inside as compared to the previous i10. The top-end variant comes with 14" alloy wheels, rear ac-vents, start-stop push button, steering mounted controls, dual airbags, ABS and reverse parking assist system.

No CNG/LPG variant & Automatic Variant available in Grand i10


The i10 Grand is available in 8 variants - 4 petrol and 4 diesel :
  • Era (entry-level)
  • Magna
  • Sportz
  • Asta (top-end)
Two options are available in terms of engines :
  • 1.2L Kappa Dual VTVT Petrol
  • 1.1L 2nd Gen U2 CRDi Diesel 

Pricing :

Obviously the Grand i10 is costlier than the regular i10, but surprisingly it costs only 20grands more vis-a-vis the same variant of previous i10

So what you get is a bigger and more powerful i10 with lot more features and style for a reasonable hike in price which is certainly not a bad deal.

  3. However, Hyundai grilles could also be placed and installed below the front bumper, in the front of the wheels for serving the purpose of cooling the brakes, or even on the rear deck lid if the vehicle has its engine mounted at the back.automoves
