Hyundai i10 Hatchback (08 on) - Review

The i10 is Hyundai's small five-door hatchback that's compact and easy to drive. In 2011 the car received a refresh with new front and rear lights, a revised grille and updated bumpers. Out goes the 1.1-litre engine and in comes a 1.0-litre three-cylinder petrol for the Blue eco variant. The cabin is modern and easy to get on with and there's also decent space with enough legroom in the back for two adults to travel in comfort. The engine line-up now comprises a 1.25-litre four-cylinder petrol and the three-cylinder 1.0-litre petrol. The 1.25-litre is our choice - it offers nippy performance to go with the 61.4mpg economy. Along with a five-year warranty and low insurance groups, it means the i10 is very cheap to run.
