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.

Saab 9-3 Aero Carlsson

Image
Saab has got experience of producing special editions in honour of rally driver Erik Carlsson, having previously named versions of the 900 and 9000 after him during the late 1980s and early 1990s. Now it has decided to do it again, this time to mark the fiftieth anniversary of the Swedish driver’s first win in Britain’s RAC Rally, which was achieved at the wheel of a Saab 96. Thankfully, the company has resisted the urge to just bung some fancy alloys and a few other extra bits onto something like a mid-range diesel model. Instead, it appears to have resurrected the limited edition Turbo X from a couple of years ago, as the new edition similarly features a turbocharged 2.8 litre petrol V6, Saab’s XWD all-wheel drive system and a six-speed automatic gearbox. The result is the 9-3 Aero Carlsson saloon, which turns out to be a very rapid car. With 276 bhp (205 kW / 280 PS) and a healthy 400 Nm of torque, the 0-60 mph (96 km/h) dash takes just 6.9 seconds. But it’s in the mid-range t...

American spec Fiat 500

Image
Fiat has released the first details and images of the North American specification 500. The tiny city car will be available in Pop, Lounge and Sport trim levels, and is distinguished from the European version by its more aggressive front and rear bumpers, bigger grille and flared sills. Another unique feature is the engine. Fiat has decided to use the 1.4 MultiAir unit currently found in models such as the Fiat Punto Evo and Alfa Romeo MiTo. Perhaps it felt that using the forthcoming two-cylinder TwinAir in the American 500 would have been too much for markets there to take? There’s no word yet on what power output the MultiAir will have, although in its current applications it comes with either 103 bhp (77 kW / 105 PS), 133 bhp (99 kW / 135 PS) or 167 bhp (125 kW / 170 PS). Similarly, prices have yet to be confirmed, but hopefully both details will have been sorted out by the time the order book for the 500 hatch opens later this year. For convertible fans, the 500C is due ...
