Hyundai Motor India Ltd. India’s largest exporter and second largest passenger car manufacturer has achieved two new milestones leaving the competition behind. Hyundai i10 – the most popular car in compact segment, is rated the country’s most fuel efficient petrol car in the compact segment. Not only this, the best-selling model in Hyundai’s range of cars has also emerged as the top seller in the ‘over 1 litre of capacity’ segment.

The BS IV compliant car powered by a 1.2 litre Kappa engine under test conditions has achieved a spectacular mileage of 19.81 km to a litre of petrol. This is the best in class ARAI-certified fuel efficiency, among petrol cars in compact segment in India. The high fuel efficiency coupled with environment friendliness makes Hyundai i10 an affordable transportation solution with a low carbon footprint for customers in India.

The fuel efficiency and comfort of i10 also makes it the top selling car in the ‘over 1 litre of capacity’ segment. During the financial year 2009 -10, Hyundai i10 sold a whopping 149,242 units in the domestic market thus breaking all previous records and becoming the highest selling car in the ‘over 1 litre of capacity’ segment.

Right from the time when i10 made its world debut in India, it has witnessed a huge demand both from the overseas as well as the domestic market. Ever since the i10 was introduced with the power-packed and highly fuel efficient Kappa engine, it went on to become the best seller in its segment.
