Hyundai i10 (2020-present) Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
Very practical for such a small car	Entry-level cars don't have Apple CarPlay or Android Auto
Economical and well equipped	No three-door version
Generous warranty	Not as much fun to drive as a Seat Ibiza

Quick Summary

The Hyundai i10 (2020-present) is a benchmark city car, packaging impressive practicality and features into a compact, affordable supermini. As one of the few remaining options in its class, it stands out with a surprisingly spacious five-door-only body, a well-designed interior, and a 252-litre boot. While some cabin plastics are hard, the build quality is robust, and the car is backed by Hyundai's excellent five-year, unlimited-mileage warranty, offering exceptional peace of mind for used car buyers.

On the road, the i10 impresses with a comfortable and composed ride that handles UK roads well, a quality often missing in this segment. The 1.2-litre petrol engine is the recommended choice over the entry-level 1.0-litre for its added flexibility, while the top-spec N Line model offers a punchy 99bhp turbocharged engine for more spirited performance. Running costs are low, with official fuel economy figures around 55mpg and low insurance groups, making the i10 an economical and sensible choice for daily driving.

Best for: City drivers, new drivers, and anyone seeking a highly practical, reliable, and economical small car with the security of a long manufacturer warranty.

Not ideal for: Buyers who prioritise driving fun over comfort (consider a SEAT Ibiza), those who need a larger boot, or drivers wanting a premium badge.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the i10 if: You want one of the most complete city cars on the market, prioritising everyday usability, low running costs, and long-term reliability backed by an excellent warranty.

Consider alternatives if: Your priority is a more thrilling driving experience, a more premium-feeling cabin, or if you need more space than a city car can offer.

Competitive Position: The Hyundai i10 (2020-present) sets the standard in the city car class. It excels with its blend of practicality, comfort, and standard equipment. While rivals like the Kia Picanto offer similar value and the Toyota Aygo X provides quirky SUV styling, the i10’s superior ride quality, interior space, and unbeatable five-year warranty make it arguably the most sensible and well-rounded choice for most buyers.
