The new generation Hyundai i10 will go on sale in the United Kingdom on January 18, with an MSRP of £12,495 ($16,489/€14,788). This makes it £1,195 ($1,577/€1,414) pricier than the entry-level Ford Ka+ and £2,355 ($3,108/€2,787) more expensive than the base Volkswagen Up!.
Still, it does offer a wide selection of standard gear, including DAB radio with 3.8-inch display, air conditioning, electric windows, electric side mirrors, cruise control and a leather-wrapped steering wheel and gearshift lever.
The forward collision warning with autonomous emergency braking, lane departure warning, lane keep assist, high beam assist and eCall are also standard.
