The car to put this Korean manufacturer on the map was the old Santro hatchback which was sold right from 1998. Hyundai has brought this humble hatchback back in the market in a new, modern avatar.

Hyundai also offers a factory fitted CNG kit with this car.

Hyundai Grand i10
The Grand i10 may sound like a facelift of the of the i10 hatchback but the Grand i10 is, in fact, an all-new car. Carrying the latest fluidic design language of Hyundai, the Grand i10 looks quite European. Why would it not be? The car was designed at the Hyundai Design Centre in Germany.
