The Hyundai i10 is Hyundai's smallest car: a five-door, five-seat petrol city car with a 252-litre boot and a five-year, unlimited-mileage warranty. This page explains the petrol engines, the Advance, Premium and N Line trims, and which suits which driver.
The Hyundai i10 is a small five-door, five-seat hatchback built for town driving, and it sits at the bottom of Hyundai's range as the brand's smallest car. At 3.67 metres long with a 9.7-metre turning circle, it is made for tight streets and awkward parking spaces.
The choice here is simple. One body style, petrol engines only from 62 to 99 bhp driving the front wheels, and three trims: Advance, Premium and the sportier N Line.
It suits city commuters, downsizers, new drivers and anyone who wants a second car that's cheap to run but doesn't feel punishing on a longer trip. Insurance groups run from 1 to 10 depending on the version.

The i10 is the current, third-generation car, on sale in this form since 2023. It's a proper five-seater rather than a four-seat city car, with a 252-litre boot that grows to 1,050 litres with the rear seats folded.
Reviewers consistently describe it as more grown-up than its size suggests: comfortable, quiet for the class, and composed enough on a motorway that it doesn't feel out of its depth. Road testers also single out the light steering and visibility as making it easy to place in traffic.
Hyundai backs it with a five-year, unlimited-mileage warranty, plus a five-year paintwork guarantee and six years against corrosion. Servicing falls every 12 months or 10,000 miles.
Because the standard kit list is unusually complete for a car this small, and leasing puts you in a brand-new one under warranty for the whole contract. Every i10 gets safety and connectivity equipment that some larger cars still charge for.
Across the range you get a digital instrument cluster, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a rear-view camera, rear parking sensors and air conditioning. On the safety side, autonomous emergency braking, lane-keep assist, traffic sign recognition and automatic high beam are fitted to every version.
Practically, it's five seats and five doors in a car 1.68 m wide, with a 36-litre fuel tank and WLTP economy of 49.6 to 55.4 mpg depending on the version. Worth knowing before you order: there's a tyre repair kit rather than a spare wheel.
There's one answer here: petrol. No hybrid, no plug-in, no electric version, so nothing to charge and nothing to plan around. You simply fill it up.
Power runs from 62 to 99 bhp from 1.0 to 1.2-litre engines with three or four cylinders, front-wheel drive, with manual or automatic gearboxes offered. Expect 0-62 mph in 10.5 to 18.4 seconds and CO2 of 116 to 130 g/km, depending which version you pick.
The lower-powered versions are happiest in town; the stronger ones make motorway runs less of an effort. If you do most of your miles in traffic, the automatic is worth a test drive before you commit, as reviewers rate the manual more highly. Our guide to choosing your car covers how spec choices play into a contract.

Advance covers the essentials properly, Premium adds the comfort kit most people notice day to day, and N Line is the quick, sporty-looking one. All three are five-door, five-seat petrol hatchbacks.
The entry version starts at 66 bhp and rides on 15-inch alloy wheels with cloth upholstery. It brings Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a leather multifunction steering wheel, a rear-view camera with guidelines, rear parking sensors and DAB digital radio.
The Advance is currently available from £232.44 a month.
Premium moves up to 16-inch alloys and adds a heated steering wheel, a wireless charging pad and privacy glass, along with heated front seats, ambient lighting, front fog lights and power-folding door mirrors. Its entry version is also 66 bhp.
The Premium is currently available from £250.24 a month. Against the Advance, that is currently £17.80/mo more expensive.
Then there's the performance version of the i10.
N Line is the 99 bhp car, the strongest engine in the range, on 16-inch alloys with cloth upholstery and an N Line branded leather gear stick over Premium. Road testers describe it as genuinely entertaining on a twisty road, though the ride is firmer and it's noisier at speed.
The N Line is currently available from £262.13 a month. Against the Premium, that is currently £11.89/mo more expensive.
Advance, Premium and N Line can each be specified with an option pack - the 63, 79 and 90 Packs. All three add the same things: a 12.5-inch touchscreen with navigation, mapcare and live services, a leather-wrapped steering wheel and gear knob, a smart key with keyless entry and engine start/stop, and privacy glass for the rear window.
Nine paint colours are offered across the range, from Atlas white and Phantom black through to Lucid lime, Mangrove green and Meta blue. Which packs and colours are available on a given contract varies, so check the individual deal.
If the i10 feels a size too small, the MG MG3 is worth a look as a larger, similarly value-focused hatchback. You can also see the rest of the Hyundai range if you want more space or an electric option.
Specifications from Hyundai's UK data and Euro NCAP; equipment, packs, paint and availability vary by version, so check the individual deal.
