What is miles per pound?

Fuel economy

A more stringent standard for fuel economy (WLTP) was introduced from September 2017, and this model was not required to undergo that test. Its fuel economy measured under the previous test system was 47 - 67 mpg. However these figures are less likely to be achievable in real world driving and so should never be compared to another car's mpg which was measured under the newer, more realistic WLTP system.

Thanks to low prices, the i10 will always be great value. It’s also cheap to run thanks to an average economy of 61.4mpg (67.3mpg on the i10 Blue) and cheap to tax. The auto is the least efficient returning 51.4mpg on the combined cycle. Hyundai i10 running costs will be helped by the affordable servicing prices and although this is a small car, intervals are long at 12,500 miles.

The five-year warranty means that any unexpected costs are covered – plus it can be transferred to a second owner.

Hyundai i10 emissions make good reading. This is an eco-friendly car: the 1.25-litre emits 108g/km of CO2 but the auto emits 129g/km. The Blue model emits 99g/km and is free to tax.

Like other Hyundai models, the i10 is covered by a five-year warranty that’s not subject to mileage restrictions. Regardless of that we expect Hyundai i10 reliability to be impressive.
