F/lift of the i10. Check out the LED's + lekker 7" TS system with CarPlay & Android Auto...(zero chance of that making it here hey)...

Euro model build in Turkey; local model built in India.

"Hyundai i10 has been enhanced with new advanced active safety and connectivity features from the segments above, as well as modern design refinements, including the new signature Cascading front grille.

"New i10 showcases strong build quality and our passion for detail, while also including many features from the segments above," said Tony Whitehorn, President & CEO Hyundai Motor UK Ltd. "The impressive package has made the i10 one of the best-selling cars in its class and popular with customers across the UK - a success story that the New i10 is set to carry on."

Refined design highlights and an enhanced ride

New Hyundai i10 comes with many design refinements for a more emotionally appealing look, including the new Cascading front grille. It is characterised by its curved natural flowing line and will become the new family identity for Hyundai models in the future. New i10 will be the first Hyundai car on the road with this new signature design feature.

In the front, the New i10 features a new bumper design and new round LED daytime running lights, positioned at the edges of the new Cascading grille. On the rear, New i10 is also characterised by an evolved bumper design, including refined materials on the rear lights, a new black inlay as well as round rear fog lamps mirroring the new front design. Redesigned side mouldings with a new shape and size round off the fresh profile of New i10.

Moving to the interior, New i10 comes with a new shade of red cloth. Customers can now also choose from blue and black interior colours on all trims.

New Hyundai i10 introduces a new design of 14-inch steel or alloy wheel. Enhancements in ride and handling created by a larger front bump stopper and modified steering gear ratio, round off New i10's segment-leading package.

Like its predecessor, New i10 will come with the proven choice of two petrol engines, 1.0-litre and 1.25-litre, driving the front wheels through five-speed manual as standard or four-speed automatic gearboxes. The BlueDrive model, based on the 1.0-litre petrol variant, includes a number of features to reduce fuel consumption.

All good things come from above - great package of connectivity, convenience and active safety

The New i10 makes advanced technology available to more people than ever before. Responding to customer demand for single connectivity features, New i10 includes the latest connectivity features, all integrated into the new seven-inch touch screen navigation system. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto guarantee seamless integration, safe operation and mirrored functionality of mobile devices based on iOS or the Android operating system. In order to be up-to-date at any time, New i10's navigation system comes with a seven-year free subscription to LIVE Services, offering real-time traffic conditions, local weather and points of interest as well as the position of speed cameras in countries where this is permitted by law. Customers do not even have to choose: New i10 is the only car in its class to offer Android Auto, Apple CarPlay and LIVE Services in a single infotainment system.

In terms of safety, New i10 now comes with two advanced features to actively avoid accidents, both based on the new multi-functional camera: a Front Collision Warning System (FCWS) and a Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) (optional on most trims). Using front camera sensors, FCWS alerts the driver acoustically and visually about collision dangers arising from other vehicles. Lane Departure Warning alerts the driver if unsafe movements are made while the car is driving over 60 km/h. The LDWS sounds an alarm before the car moves over lane markings.

On the convenience side, the New i10 scores with the tried and tested feature package of its predecessor: automatic air conditioning, heated steering wheel and front seat warmers, make it an ideal companion for every weather condition and every activity. Up to five people fit into the roomy interior and the segment-leading trunk volume of up to 252 litres offers generous stowage.

Made in Europe, for Europe - the i10 success story

Since its introduction back in 2008 the Hyundai i10 has been a major success story for Hyundai Motor with around 670,000 units sold by July 2016. That makes it one of the best-selling cars in this segment in recent years.

The original i10 alone with its unique value for money offer achieved over half a million sales in seven years between 2008 and 2014. When the second-generation i10 was introduced in late 2013 the model truly became a European car - designed and developed at the Hyundai Motor Europe Technical Center (HMETC) in Rüsselsheim, Germany, and manufactured at Hyundai Assan Otomotive Sanayi (HAOS) in ĺzmit, Turkey.

The second-generation i10 with its young, modern design and dynamic drivability has been more than capable of keeping up with its predecessor, with more than 220,000 units sold in only three years."

Facelifted Hyundai i10 revealed

A facelifted version of the Hyundai i10 will go on sale in the UK next January, following the car's public debut at the Paris motor show next month.

The i10, a city car rival for the likes of the Volkswagen Up, Skoda Citigo, Seat Mii and Kia Picanto, has been on sale in its current form since 2013; this mid-life refresh is designed to keep the car competitive in the face of increasing competition.

Styling updates for this i10 are minor, and mainly focus on a new front grille and LED daytime running lights. There's also a reprofiled bumper at the rear, and a new shape for the side mouldings. Other exterior features include a new 14in steel or alloy wheel design.

The current i10's interior has been a source of disappointment in the past. It's functional and robust, but doesn't offer much of the charm or technology you'll find in premium rivals. Hyundai is looking to change that by adding a 7.0in touchscreen infotainment system. Likely to only be available on high-end versions of the i10, the new touchscreen features Apple CarPlay and Android Auto functionality, as well as satellite navigation. The sat-nav system comes with a seven-year subscription to LIVE services, which adds real-time traffic conditions and local weather updates.

Buyers will also be able to choose from new cloth trim colours.

Hyundai has also upgraded the i10's suite of safety equipment to include front collision warning - which gives the driver an acoustic and visual indicator if they're about to have a crash - and lane departure warning systems.

Mechanically, Hyundai says it has improved the i10's ride and handling by adding a larger front bump stopper and modified steering. The updated i10 will be offered with the same engines as the current car - meaning 1.0-litre and 1.25-litre petrol units with 65bhp and 86bhp respectively. A five-speed manual transmission is standard, but a four-speed automatic can also be specified.

Final specifications and pricing for the facelifted i10 won't be announced until closer to the car's launch, but we expect prices to increase from the £7995 entry-level price of today's car. For reference, the Volkswagen Up costs from £8995, while the Seat Mii and Skoda Citigo are priced from £8440 and £8275 respectively. The Picanto, from Hyundai's sister brand Kia, costs from £8095.

Does not look as good as the current one. Would be nice to have the infotainment as an aftermarket product.
 
"The facelifted Grand i10 is set to go on sale in Europe in early 2017 with identical engines to the current lineup of 1.0-litre or 1.25-litre petrol models. The Grand i10 will make its debut in South Africa around March or April next year (2017), but the specification is yet to be decided. Suffice to say the higher-end features of the European model are likely to be omitted."

Probably start at 200k ,the current one starts at 180k .

Imagine paying 200k for i10!
 
Hyundai has given its European-spec i10 a small makeover and technological update, and many of the changes are expected to filter through to South Africa's Grand i10 during the first quarter of next year.
Disambiguation: South Africa's Grand i10, which is sourced from India, differs from the European i10, primarily at the rear end where the 'Grand' has been stretched by 100mm. The different rear door design (note how the Euro i10's rear window line runs into the C-pillar) is the easiest way of telling them apart.

The two are otherwise very similar and that applies to the facelift that you see here, in which the freshened front and rear designs will also find their way onto either end of the Grand i10's longer body.

The biggest visual changes are upfront, where the facelifted i10 features Hyundai's new signature 'Cascading' grille, with round fog lights integrated into the top corners. Moving to the back, the i10 gets a bolder rear bumper featuring a large black inlay, while new chrome surrounds garnish the taillights.

Apart from additional red and blue colour scheme options, the big news inside is a range of new features, including an 18cm touch-screen, reverse camera, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay connectivity as well as driver aids such as Front Collision Warning and Lane Departure Warning.

The local features basket has yet to be confirmed, however our contact at Hyundai informs us that some new features are being considered for the local model.

Pricing and final specs, of course, will only be known closer to launch. There is no word on any new engines though, so you can expect the Grand to soldier on with the familiar 64kW 1.25-litre normally aspirated petrol engine.

The most significant change is the addition of an all-new infotainment system. Available only on range-topping Premium SE trim, the new 7.0in touchscreen features Apple CarPlay and Android Auto functionality

Probably won't see it in our models :(

Yup; If a 500k+ Tucson in ZAR does not have one (standard) then I doubt a sub-R200k i10 will....lol!

Yup!

I was actually surprised to see they have now introduced an infotainment system with satnav as standard in the i20 N sport but... R284k?? Maybe if they started selling them with the 1.0T it's sold with in europe, it would be a good deal.
