Hyundai which buoyed by the sucess of i10 (6500 bookings in first 15days of the launch) is planning to add more values to the car. The launch of i10 has increased the traffic in the Hyundai showroom by almost 30% Hyundai is really surprised not because of the response it received but due to indian’s passion for features like sunroof. Since most of the i10 on lookers are professionals, they opt for high end variants. Hence hyundai plans to add more values to i10 by offering an automatic transmission and by strapping an all new CRDi engine. Apart from the santro AT there are no small car with automatic transmission. Maruti Suzuki which tested the automatic with zen ditched it after a poor response. The new i10 automatic will have a more powerful engine compared to the the 1.1L engine(santro’s). The automatic i10 will launched first in western markets and then it will be introduced in india. Hyundai will also strap a new 1.1L CRDi engine under the hood of the i10 in 2008. Hyundai i10 CRDi will also be launched in 2008. Hyundai will display the i10 in Bologna motor show in December and will launched in europe soon after that. Rush to the Hyundai’s showroom, since Hyundai has already indicated that the current i10 price is the initial launch price and from January 2008 it may go in for an adjustment.
IT WILL HELP TO HYUNDAI MOTORS TO INCREASE IT VOLUME IN AUTO SECTOR
this is a good move , quite a lead from other makers as diesel automatic will sell outsell more than any diesel existing as it will be quite a breeze through traffic,
congtaulations !you have my money on it
i’m eagerly waiting for i10 CRDI when its expected on Indian roads & what will be the costing..
An automatic i10 variant with a CRDi engine, in my opinion, will place Hyundai in a very unique and gainful position in the market. Many indians will look for an automatic diesel variant as it turns out to be cheaper to run and easier to drive in maddening traffic conditions.
Hi
Can anyone tell me when the i10 automatic model is releasing…
Thanks in advance…
Hi Vicky,
I am in a wheelchair and have been waiting to drive an automatic for long time. Should I wait for the i10 automatic or buy a santro Automatic?
When will the i10 Automatic be released. The Hyundai folks are hopelessly unhelpful.
Many thanks.
really waiting for I10 AUTOMATIC, want to gift my father who is 60+ & fears driving bigger automatic cars on busy city roads
I wish to know the advantages in todays market Scenario. I wish to compare Hyundai Magna i10 1.2 L with Tata Indica Turbo V2 DLG. Looks to me like both are really good cars. Need your suggestion to select the right car to select depending the future market scenario. Diesel demand in present days is also a thought. need your answer.
Thanks,
Rakshith
both are completely diff cars… i have been using indica turbo v2 dlg from 1.5 yrs and have done over 35k kms.. earlier, i had a santro… reliability and quality of hyundai, after sales, can’t be matched by tata ever!
go for a diesel oly if you commute like 40 kms daily.. anything less than than, i would suggest a petrol hyundai.. 1.2 l i10 is really promising, but i find it a bit small for the price you pay.. you may check out indica vista, which is great vfm(again, pl keep in mind, 40km.. less than that, a santro/i10 is anyday a better proposition)
dear sir,
