Hyundai i10 Prime Launch Date

We haven’t had a word with Hyundai India so far, however we reckon this should be launched by mid 2017. The new i10 Prime will be made available in this year itself.

Hyundai i10 Prime Design

In terms of design there won’t be a major changes. We reckon, the front grille shall be revised and then a new front and rear bumpers will be added. The other important aspect of the i10 Prime is the design should sharp and fresh. We aren’t certain on what will be the exact changes, however these shall be some minor changes. There won’t be any major updates. The 13-inch tyres will continue to be offered. We could expect the design look fresh and resemble the new Fluidic Design 2.0 to a good extent. The side profile of the hatchback will remain unchanged while the rear will get minor upgrades. We could expect some new paint shades on offer too.

Hyundai i10 Prime Interior

It is on the inside that the Hyundai i10 Prime looks a tad different. As a touchscreen will be offered on the Eon, we expect the same for the Hyundai i10 Prime too. The other aspects of the interiors remain the same. For instance, a three-spoke steering wheel will be offered with a blue-backlit instrument cluster. The centre console gets a simple layout with AC vents on the top, followed by an infotainment system and AC knobs.

The front row seats are spacious, while the seats have decent support. At the same time, the space on the rear seats is just fine. The knee room is a bit tight if you are a tall person. The boot isn’t very large in size. The i10 is a good option to consider for a family of two adults and two kids.
