Hey...hyundai i10

Yesterday I went to Mid-Valley Mega Mall with my family for some window shopping and saw a Hyundai i10 on display. Wow 1st time seeing it live...it does look about the same size as Suzuki Swift but surely bigger than a Perodua Viva.


The boot space looks like can fit a medium size luggage but a full golf bag is impossible unless you fold down the rear seat.



Engine compartment is neat..yeah minus the hydraulic power steering as Hyundai i10 is using electric motor power steering as its space saving, more power to the engine and less worry
on hydraulic leaks which happens on normal hydraulic power steering. The driver will experience easy and fast to turn the steering during parking and it becomes heavy once the driver speedup the vehicle.

The rear looks quite good ...modern concept. With the 3rd brake light fitted to the rear mini spoiler. Also the seat fabric feels nice but the rear seating is good for 2 person and if 3 person will be abit tight of space.The plastic also feel nice to touch. Plus the steering have nice grip and Hyundai i10 has 2 airbags installed for the driver and front passenger.



The center console..neat.Buttons nicely place and with large lcd screen make reading the text on the display at ease. Wish they have install a digital a/cond..saving some space. The auto gear shift knob...is short and comes with overdrive button.

Hyundai i10 is replacing the Hyundai Atoz..lets give a big welcome and hope it will pose strong compettion in its class.
