Reasons contributing to Hyundai's iconic hatchback getting this accolade are many and shall be brought to limelight.
Primarily, Hyundai brand itself makes a reliable choice for auto aficionados to purchase the Grand i10. The South Korean auto giant claims that since the inception of this model in the domestic market, the company has successfully sold its 35,000 units all over the country. Astonishingly it took Grand i10 a minuscule of 90 days to attain that figure.

Furthermore, experts are of a view that the reformed body structure of this hatchback was a highlight for customers to put the car on their check-list.
However, the principal factor amounting to huge admiration of Grand i10 was the introduction of a diesel variant, which the i10 lacked. The technologically advance U2 diesel engine has been incorporated in the car for an exemplary performance.

At present, its rivals in the form of Maruti Suzuki Swift, Ritz and Ford Figo are offering a multitude of features and lucrative schemes to allure domestic buyers but somehow the former revolutionised the hatchback segment. In a country, where citizens are assiduous in their expenses, Hyundai's prudent hatchback Grand i10 meets their expectations accordingly.
