Hyundai reveals updated i10 for UK market

Hyundai has updated its i10 offering that will be released for the United Kingdom (UK) market.

Per the South Korean car brand, the new Hyundai i10 now has a lower roof and a longer wheelbase — resulting to a bolder and sportier stance.

Overall, it looks modern and subtly aggressive — far from the Hyundai i10 once made available for the Philippine market. The said nameplate was offered locally by the then distributor Hyundai Asia Resources Incorporated.  

Inside, the new Hyundai i10 comes with tartan fabric seats. The checkered design offers purple lines that complement the purple appliques found on the compact city car’s stitching and air vents.

Further, gray touchpoints with a purple sheen in the crash pad and lower central console, add extra style.

Hyundai also fitted the UK-market i10 with a 4.2-inch instrument cluster and an eight-inch infotainment system with audio-video navigation, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and the latest update to Bluelink telematics. It also has a wireless charger.

In addition, the new Hyundai i10 comes with safety features such as forward collision-avoidance assist, lane following assist, and rear occupant alert.

Hyundai also revealed an N-Line i10. For those who do not know, N-Line is the performance variants of its nameplates.

The Hyundai i10's N-Line trim gets bespoke bumpers, inserts, and red touches. The backs of the seats feature triple red line fabric, and the model comes with new 16‑inch alloy wheels.

More details about the UK-spec Hyundai i10 and i10 N-Line are expected to be made available soon.
