Hyundai has launched a Grand i10-based crossover hatchback called the Grand i10X in Indonesia. The i10X sticks to the traditional crossover look, as with the i20 Active being sold in India.
In terms of styling, the Grand i10X gets a similar treatment as the i20 Active, with black body cladding, daytime running LEDs, plastic side extensions and a chrome-tipped exhaust. The new crossover also gets a raised ride height. Getting in, you will see a new steering, but otherwise the car retains its basic layout —a console-mounted gear shift lever, integrated audio system with 4 speakers, USB and aux ports, driver seat height adjustment, smart key with push button start, cooled glovebox and 256 litres of boot space. The car is powered by a 1.25-litre 86bhp petrol engine.
The Grand i10X will be the first cross-hatchback from Hyundai in Indonesia; the i20 Active is not offered in the market. Based on the Indonesian Grand i10, the car has more in common with the European model than the Indian one, and has slightly different exterior styling.
Talking about the market here, the i20 Active crossover hatchback is already on sale in India. Therefore, it remains to be seen if Hyundai will consider exploring the crossover treatment for the smaller Grand i10.
