हुंडई i10 [2010-2017] यूज़र रिव्यूज़

I have bought the i10 car in May 2008. When a chance to get drive at higher speed in Delhi- Gurgaon road there is too much vibration when the speed reaches at 65-70 kmpl. Within 10 days of purchase I have to Visit the Service Centre for rectifying the problem.

Now on 27.2.09,  the car has just crossed 3400 km. While starting the car the light of  PSM (Power Steering Motor indicator) at deshboard keep on blinking and the Power steering get Jammed.

What type of Standard and Technology the Hyundai People are maintaining. I have purchased the  New Hyundai car  to have at least 4-5 years peace of mind. But I was wrong.

Previously I owned Maruti 800 which i used for more than 12 years which give me complete peace of mind.

I have bought Hyundai i10 as my first car and booked Sportz version of the same. It has been barely second week of the car and I have already clocked, 1100+ Kms, made a trip to Bhimashankar and Shirdi from Mumbai. The performance of the car was phenominal and I am totally satisfied as the car was anything beyond my expectations. Pickup and power of car is really good, although it gives you real feel only at speed above 80 Km/hr. Since its a new car and still first service is pending, I didn't go beyond 100 Km/hr during my journey.

Car was really good in terms of suspension as it easily managed bumps and pot holes on the highways. A/C was really helpful to manage hot summers in Sahyadris. Drive is real smoothy and I got fuel economy of around 12-13 Km/ltr including drive on ghats and in between towns and villages with A/C on almost all the times. Still to calculate exact mileage in Mumbai city driving conditions.

Music system of the car is again one more addition to satisfactory feel of buying this car. I could listen to FM channels almost thorughout my journey, which changed locations from Mumbai to Pune to Surat FM stations but stil songs were in Hindi :-).

The only few cons I would say is Hyundai has cut the cost at many small places to maintain the cost of car low with new Kappa engine. Gear knob is lower in quality, inside rear view mirror back is again odd plastic, air ventilation system changed to traditional mechanical one from the electronic one as compared to the old versions. But these tits and bits won't reduce the fun of driving i10.

I would recommend anyone who is planning to buy new car with real fun, should consider i10 also in their shortlisted cars.

Awsome Style, Smooth Drive, Good Pickup, Powerful A/C, Trendy InteriorsHard shift between 1st and 2nd Gear, Lil'bit cost cutting by Hyundai in plastics,

I had a Indica Xeta GLS (2008), i had many problems with it like mileage (8-10 km/l in city), Vibration (Doors), Steering (Very hard - power steering), etc. So finally i sold my car last month, and bought an HYUNDAI I10 (Kappa) Magna.(After various enquiries and reviews).
This car meets my all expectations and i am totally satisfied with this car.
1. Good Mileage: 20.47 km/l (Highway - 5 persons, with full load @ backside, 65% A/C usage), 12km/l (City - 100% A/C, Chennai traffic)
2. Good Sound Proofing: Nil sound when you shut all windows.
3. Good Ground Clearance: Longer wheelbase, and bigger tyres help a lot in city driving like chennai.
4. Good Power Steering: EPS is great.
5. Good Legroom: its good when compared to other hatchbacks of its class (Except Indica)

So, if anyone wants to buy a family car with 4 persons, directly go for it. I ll recommend it. . . . !


Good fuel economy, Good style, Good interiors, etc.No intermittent wiper mode, External Antenna

I have been using Santro for last two years and in the recent past my friend has purchased i10 sportz. I see lot of gap is there between these two - Santro Vs i10 - I simply say its uncomparable even though the engine capacity gap is 100cc. Its actually the engine technology. After my friend purchased this car, we went on long drives from Bangalore to Ooty, Coorg, Hoganekkal falls and Tirupati. Amazing driving experience. We went to tirupati and come back on the sam day - 600KM. Really good and it gives a mileage of 12KM as we always try to be 100+ speed with AC on. If some one is think of buying a car - between Santro and i10. I suggest to go with i10 1.2liter Sportz. Of course there is a price gap, but after buying the car.. you feel very happy

Exterior Looks are good especially rear, but front looks dated. Descent appearence all together. Rear spoiler and wiper add to the appeal.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Nice Interiors, especially the red sports pack. There is no much silver ascents seen.Equipmets nice to use and well placed. Space is adequate but no where compared to ritz. But quality feel is much better for a hatchback. Dash board glare a problem in briaght sunny times. Seats offer a nice underthigh support, but doesn't feel as comfortable as the 'seat of a pants' feel like swift . Still very good. There is some work neede to improve the suspension set up as the car try to wallow around the bed at high speed direction changes.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Very nice steering its so light that without any effort u can handle it. 5 speed manual gear box is well mated with the 1.2 rev happy engine which doen't fell Strained even at higher rpm. Torque falls flat distributed all over the rev range. So nice pick up and feel. But there is small strugle for  pick up while u put to 3rd gear  after 20km/hr. U may have to down to 2 and then rise the speed to 30 or around and again link to 3rd. Geer box altogether is sleek and has a low travel, again easy in city.

Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality is good in city speeds and in average to good roads. It handle corners with good confidence but u should be a bit careful while pushing her hard. In an unlevel surface it tend to unsettle, thanks to its high stance and narrow rubber. Its too long that hyundai should have upgraded theit tyres to 175/14s atleast in kappa for good handling and grip on highways. Ride & Handling is no way comparable to the benchmark Figo.

Final Words A nice city car that gives good FE figures and so nice maneuverability.So effortless to move and park. Good responsive engine and nice interiors add to the glory. Wider tyres and a little more shoulder room in the rear could have been better. Alltogether a nice pac

Areas of improvement Tyres, 3rd Gear and Suspension too.

Interiors, Kappa EngineFront looks Dated, Not So Spaceous

Exterior

fantastic.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

very much space, comfortable, its i-relax front seat is very relaxing.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

it has a very good performance, its engine (kappa) delivers very low emisstion. it gives a fuel economy of 15-16 km/l. on highways at a speed of 80/90km/h it has given 15km/l with ac. its rear coil spring suspension is good for indian road.

Ride Quality & Handling

very easy to handle in traffic, its tilt steering is good for persons of all height. old persons can handle it very easily in traffic if it is upgraded to automatic transmission.

Final Words

it is the best car in its class, i love it, i suggest everyone to buy it. best car go for it. you can also buy its era version (irde engine 1.1L), it is also good.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  

 

 

performance, acceleration and everything.nothing...

 

Exterior Looks gud.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The car has decent space with its size, comfortable seats. infact its seating position is like we r sitting on chair. so comfortable. in and out from car is so easy.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox I purchased i10 era on july 2008. now I had driven it 64000kms and I have not changed its tyres till now. Its a no maintenance car guys, unless u drive it with care. I had only scheduled services at 10000kms. and it costs only 2000-2500rs. brake pads have changed at 60000kms. It gives mileage of 15+kms.in city. I drive it at 50-65 km/hr. pickup of car is nice with 1.1l engine. but enough for city drive.

 

Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality is gud enough, it handles pretty gud at 145 km/hr also. no parking problem.

 

Final Words Its a great car and has gud resale value too.

 

Areas of improvement It has improved a lot now in newer versions.

 

good fuel economy,no maintenance,value for moneydashboard reflects on front glass

 

Exterior is fantastic. Look wise Interior is good and spacious. Features are also good as per the price. Location of AC Vents are wrong for driver seat. The AC air flow is blocked by the stearing on both side of the driver and only half of the air could reach the driver. If you wear long-toed shoes/sandals then you cant drive the car comfortably at least in crowded area. I have to take-off my formal shoes and use floaters while driving the car and change them again when I reach office. 

Engine is Powerful and performance looks good.

Fuel economy is bad (12 kmpl in City) while Hyundai claims 20.36 kmpl for Magna 1.2. Its about 1 and half months now I have bought my car. I drop my wife in Gurgaon DLF Ph III in the morning and go to my office in Infospace Gurgaon and return home with my wife in the evening(34 km/day). Both area are over crowded and could be the reason for bad fuel economy. People say that fuel economy could improve after 1st service. I will post again if I see any improvement after 1st service.

Ride Quality is good and Engine is powerful (May its bcoz, I used Wagon R earlier). Even at 110 km/h it looks in control and stick to the road.

Final Words Good car with few comfort related issues and bad Fuel economy. 

Areas of improvement Location of AC Vent for driver seat should be adjusted, Clutch design should be modified for comfortable drive for long-toed shoes.  

Good looking, spacious from inside, powerful engineBadFuel economy Comfort issues: location of AC Vent for driver seat, Clutch is'nt comfortable

 

Exterior Good.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Generally OK- but scope for lot of improvements.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Fuel Econimy very bad.

Ride Quality & Handling Good.

Final Words It seems Hyundai Motors are cheating people by giving absolutely fa\lse claim on mileage. A bad choice indeed as I purchased this car after reviewing other cars, mainly because of better mileage expectations. The car was given to authorised dealer M/s Kun Hyundai, Chennai 2-3 times, They have done nothing and keep giving vague answers.  They claim that most of the i10- are getting 11 kms in city. I am   very Disappointed.   Advise others to be very careful before buying this car. Also its very sad, that Hyundai Motors are least botrhered about all this. They have nowhere mentioned any customer care nos or any mail ID of Hyundai Motors where consumersan lodge any complaint.

Areas of improvement Hyundai Motors must do something seriously to improve the performance.

smooth driving, good pick upvery poor mileage(around 9 kms/ltr) with AC, less spacious.
