This is the all-new, second generation Hyundai i10, which will make its debut at the Frankfurt motor show next month.

Not to be confused with the upcoming Grand i10 for India, the all-new i10 is 80mm longer, 65mm wider and 50mm lower than its predecessor and its wheelbase is 5mm longer. Hyundai claims that this helps to give it more mature driving characteristics and best-in-class cabin and luggage space.

The engine line-up is yet to be confirmed but it is tipped to include three-cylinder 1.0-litre and four-cylinder 1.2-litre petrols. Hyundai is yet to detail the new i10's trim levels and equipment, but expect it to be packed with features.  

Senior vice president and chief operating officer of Hyundai Motor Europe, Allan Rushforth, said, "Every aspect of the car has been designed and rigorously developed to meet the demands and needs of European consumers. The new-generation i10 fully embodies Hyundai's 'true value' proposition, bringing higher levels of features and functionality than many buyers would expect to find in a vehicle of this segment."

Hyundai's new i10 has been designed and engineered in Europe and it will be built at the manufacturer's factory in Turkey.
