New 2024 Hyundai i10 Review | Better Than A VW up!?

[@chirpywiggins5796]

Test drove one last week and have ordered one in Mangrove Green. Have an Up GTI but this thing has more toys, less crashy ride, is nicer to look at , cheaper to insure and although not as quick, is still nippy enough !

[@BuckleUpShow]

I used to have an up! GTI and would agree with your comments

[@GUTI-ps6oy]

" Not as quick" 😂😂😂😂😂 In a German Treck Test IT smoked the GTI by ONE FUCKIN SECOND 🤣🤣🤣🤣 The GTI is slowest Car ever build 😂

[@ACESN1]

Yer I drive this exact car for work doing 100 miles per day 5 days per week shes definitely a great looking lil car with nice performance for the engine size and great safety tech etc but it dont half drink fuel in my opinion have to say tho aswell dude the build in live sevices sat nav in my i10 is one of the best I’ve seen and used even compared to apps like waze it’s amazing and keeps me away from accidents & road closures, try’s to redirect away from congestion, keeps me informed of speed cameras and it’s actually navigation superb with a clear accurate map and indications….Surprised yours didn’t have it as you should have probably checked it out before bashing it and calling it rubbish when it’s the opposite

[@BuckleUpShow]

It barely sipped any fuel in the week I had it as a press loan, so I’m surprised to hear you think it drinks fuel. In my experience, having driven every Hyundai on sale, Waze and Google maps operate better in conjunction with Apple Car Play or Android Auto than the cars standard systems. It’s personal preference, but Waze definitely does all the things you’ve mentioned above and more.

[@hgihgiu]

@ACESN1 Interested to know whether you have the 2024 version (digital dash) and if so does the nav version use the gps to help determine speed restrictions for the ISLW system? You may see from my other comments that the camera-only version fitted to the standard version of this car is fundamentally broken (doesn't recognise national speed limit signs) Thanks

It will hold you for a couple of seconds, but because it still has a manual handbrake, it won’t hold you indefinitely like you can with ‘auto hold’ on cars with electronic handbrake systems.

[@peteg8920]

Nice review. Do you notice a stiffer ride compared to the regular i10 ?

[@BuckleUpShow]

Tbh no, it was comfortable enough around town for me

[@DrOneOneOne]

I have the 2021 N-Line, and yes, I did. Hyundai have done more than just slap a body-kit and a turbo on the i10 for the N-Line; it's got larger, lower-profile tyres and noticeably stiffer suspension compared to the standard i10. . Initially I found the ride was actually a little on the uncomfortably-firm side for the first 8000 miles or so, then it softens up as the car gets run-in a little. I like it though. Still gets good mileage, excellent range (about 420 miles on a full tank), and it's an involving drive without being desperately slow. The N-Line is noticeably zippier than the standard models.

[@laralu8688]

Eeek get my N-line in 3 weeks and I can't wait 😁

[@BuckleUpShow]

You’re not gonna be disappointed

[@andyhornby7666]

What’s the mpg please?

[@BuckleUpShow]

WLTP testing says to expect 52.3 mpg in mixed driving. Testing data we've seen line suggests you should be able to get at least 42 mpg in the real world. (For the 1.0 T-Gdi engine in the N-Line)

[@Bambotb]

Is 67hp on normal one enough ? We don’t have n lines where i am

[@BuckleUpShow]

It’s enough for round town, but you’d want the higher powered one if you frequently travel on faster roads.

[@Bambotb]

@@BuckleUpShow but for occasional traveling like 180km twice per month is that ok

[@hgihgiu]

Did this test car have the nav option? The standard i10 N-line has camera-only Speed Limit Warning which is unreliable and drives me nuts beeping repeatedly to tell me I'm speeding when I'm not... I wonder if the nav version uses GPS to augment the camera? If so, it would be a valuable upgrade to avoid the need to scroll through several menu options to disable the 'Intelligent' Speed Limit Warning every time the car is started.

[@BuckleUpShow]

The annoying bonging is now mandatory on every new car in the UK. You can turn it off but, by law, it’s supposed to come back on every time you start the car again.

[@hgihgiu]

@@BuckleUpShow The problem is that the camera-only implementation in the i10 is quite poor. I have 2024 i10 N-Line and the bonging is driving me nuts, often when I am not actually exceeding the speed limit just that the camera has missed or interpreted signs incorrectly. At present the Hyundai camera-only system is not really fit for purpose, the manual has a full page of caveats describing when it might not work. Hence my question about whether the GPS-assisted variant is any better. I'd strongly recommend potential buyers take a test drive with the system enabled (make sure the dealer doesn't temporarily switch it off) or go for the 2023 model. This is a great car with little else like it in the market at present, but potentially ruined by faulty 'safety' systems which are so annoying that they verge on being dangerous

[@BuckleUpShow]

Every new car uses road sign recognition for this system, the navigation makes no difference as it can be outdated in 5 minutes. We’ve experienced it reading signs wrong in pretty much every make and model we’ve been in. Get used to it because you will not be able to buy a new car without it from now on.

[@hgihgiu]

@@BuckleUpShow I think when people start to realise how poor this technology is there will be significant impact on new car sales - why would you spend cash on a new car that has faults not present in the car you already have. To be honest I think you should be calling this out to your followers.

[@BuckleUpShow]

Unfortunately, we’re not the law makers in this country, so there’s not much we can do about it…

[@KevvyP83]

Gotta say the Hyundai sat nav system is brilliant, way better than Apple Maps.

[@BuckleUpShow]

Using a paper map is better than crapple maps

[@You.are.boring.me.now2024]

The Nav/Maps on my 2024 i10 was not working when I bought it, apparently waiting for an update, so I tried both Apple maps and Google maps via apple car play, I have just had my system updated via a Hyundai main dealer (update not available on line) and the Hyundai system is great, goodbye the other two.

[@hgihgiu]

Hi Rob - Hyundai UK have now confirmed that there is an issue with Intelligent Speed Limit Warning failing to identify national sign speed limit signs. When going from a 30 or 40 zone to an area governed by non-numeric sign (black diagonal line) the 2024 i10 doesn't recognise this and the ISLW system retains the previous speed limit. You get bonged 4 times the first time you exceed this limit and then again (4 times) every time you slow down and re-exceed the erroneous limit. Nightmare when driving on country roads with repeated variations in speed. I assume that you must have disabled ISLW when you were testing - or just not slowed down for corners! No idea when Hyundai think they may be able to fix this - suspect that they are flummoxed by the fact that non-numeric signs can designate multiple speed limits depending on road type. In the meantime potential buyers need to be aware. Either put up with it or go through a laborious set of menu options each time you start the car. Don't even think about trying to disable on the move, you'll end up in a hedge.

[@BuckleUpShow]

If it’s such an issue for owners, they should be turning the system off when they start the car until Hyundai fixes it.

Drove one and hated it. They are great value for money, but.... compared to an Up Gti they are totally devoid of personality. Every time I get in my Up Gti and hear its grunt and gruff, I smile.

[@BuckleUpShow]

This isn’t really a competitor for the up! GTI, it’s more the R-line. Sporting intentions, without any of the sporty stuff like more power. I owned a up! GTI for over two years, so I know it well. Obviously if you want a genuine hot hatch, go for the GTI, but in terms of R-line vs N-line, the Hyundai wins every time.
