2014 Hyundai i10 prices and specification

Hyundai’s new i10 five-door city car arrives in dealers at the end of January, with prices starting at £8,345.

That’s the same entry-point as its predecessor, although rivals such as the Škoda Citigo and Kia Picanto are available for slightly less money.

The i10 line-up begins with the ‘S’ trim grade, which features electric front windows, central locking, a CD player and apparently not much else.

Spending an extra £950 gets the ‘SE’ version. It gains rear electric windows, heated door mirrors, driver’s seat height adjustment, remote central locking and a choice of colours for the cloth upholstery.

The third and most expensive variant is called ‘Premium’. Costing from £9,995, this range-topper features as standard Bluetooth connectivity, a leather-trimmed steering wheel, 14” alloy wheels, body-side mouldings, front fog lights, LED daytime running lights and rear-mounted speakers.

Buyers will be able to choose from either a 1.0 litre, three-cylinder petrol engine that produces 65 bhp (48 kW / 66 PS) with 94 Nm (69 lb/ft) of peak torque, or a more sprightly 1.2 litre, four-cylinder unit with 85 bhp (64 kW / 87 PS) and 120 Nm (88 lb/ft).

As would be expected, neither delivers scintillating performance - even the larger capacity motor takes a fairly leisurely 12.3 seconds to propel the i10 from rest to 62 mph (100 km/h), for instance.
