- čas přidán 28. 08. 2019
- Hyundai's best-selling small car makes a grand comeback with more to offer thus naturally, it had to be christened the Grand i10 Nios. Nios means more and Hyundai has ensured that the new-gen Grand i10 doesn't just offer more in dimensions but is also loaded to the gills with premium features and looks, making it punch above its weight. What's not premium is its price tag. Starting at Rs 4.99 lakh, it manages to undercut its competitors but does it pack enough to justify the "Grand" in its moniker? Watch our first drive review to know the answer and leave us your comments with your thoughts about the car.

Hey #PDArmy, do you think small cars still make sense? Like the video, if they do, and tell us your favourite small car in the comments below.
What would you rather go for, Vijay?
Sure they do...
It makes a strong case as daily driver
Small car for big car money doesn't make sense. It's way more expensive than my 2013 i20 1.4 crdi asta which cost only 8.45 lakhs onroad(pretty expensive even at that time) , whereas this grand i10 nios 1.2 crdi asta costs almost 9.5 lakhs onroad.
Daily car users mostly use small cars for the comfortable city drive.... Also someone choose a small car as an additional one for rough use along with a SUV or a luxury sedan... Most probably everyone's first choice will be a maruthi suzuki like swift baleno wagonR ...Sales graphs shows the taste of Indians ... Nothing is more than mileage and features in lower price range, even life 😝
Ok you guys didn't mention tiago but tiago xz+,xza+ and JTP still holds ground by performing on key areas like ride quality, steering feedback, sound quality of infotainment system and design also because this i10 took some inspiration from from tiago in rear of car
We understand, Saurabh but the Tiago belongs to a lower segment.
@@powerdriftofficial that is correct but top spec varient of tiago shares so much with grand i10 and swift ... specially in amt because both those cars dont offer amt in top varients
As a owner of i10 grand nios I felt it was a best choice buying brand new Hyundai i10 grand nios because it has more leg room at the rear passenger seat, good looking interior, it as more features than the other cars in this segment, engine is quiet refined and smooth. It has exciting features like wireless charging first in the segment, rear AC vents and many more. It is also the best city car and stable in highways. It is value for money package.
hi, which variant you have, how is the mileage , maintenance and the speaker quality. thank you
@@asharudheen I am having Hyundai grand i10 nios sportz amt petrol variant, according to my experience, it is giving mileage between 14-15KM/L in cities (with A/C) and 19.0KM/L in highways(with A/C). This figures may improve after the 2nd service of the car. Maintenance is less compared to Maruti Suzuki Swift and many other cars. It has best built quality in its segment. The AVN system is very touch responsive. The consists of arkamys premium speakers. The speakers are having good amount of bass and trebles range. It is not compulsory to have extra tweeters for mid level. You have many types of arkamys moods. The sportz variant is value for money package for both mt and amt.
@@deepakmohan8262 thank you . for your detailed reply. :)
@@asharudheen Your welcome sir 🙂👍
@@deepakmohan8262 what about the ground clearance as compared to grand i10
Lol. Don't ever compare this with Ford Figo. Figo is a brutal animal in dynamics and power and of course vfm.
And yet the sales numbers continue to disappoint :-/
True bro.....!!! Fools here in India are andhbakts of Hyundai and Maruti.... Even though there are many Better options available in the market...
People in India Value Features, Space more than drivability
Sales numbers disappoint due to lack of advertising @PowerDrift . I drive a Figo and it's a beast!
Ford Volkswagen all are way above than Hyundai and Suzuki
I remember back when the reviews were much much better. And more interesting. Remember the dhoom bike review? That was what got me interested to power drift but now its just meh
This is just the first drive, bro. Our complete review will have what you love!
@@powerdriftofficial When is the complete review bro?
The Figo is much more powerful (100 hp) and is more spacious for sure. It is a great handler and Im sure the I10 is not a handler at all. The ride and handling balance will definitely be better on the figo
Varun S Kumar Yes certainly. The older i10 is not that great in handling hence I’m upsizing the tire. The new Nios however comes with R15 wheels hence an upsize on these will be even better. Power wise Figo is definitely better, but then does that help in city mileage?
@@AneeshKorrde i own a Figo diesel and it returns around 18 kmpl on average.
Venue - Seltos - Brezza - Nexon
Good one PD. 😌
Nice catch!
Sir to over take a car fast do we need More torque and will the diesel version be much better than petrol for quick acceleration. I mean only for the amt variant. I am looking for a quick acceleration car amt variant. Could you please suggest a car. My budget is 6 lacs
Am I right in assuming that hatchbacks and even compact sedans make more sense than compact SUVs? Compact SUVs aren't that capable for the premium price they ask over the hatchs. For eg I have been driving my aspire over some of the worst roads imaginable and it hasn't let me down. With a little concentration it gets the job done. I am not sure if brezza would have done any better as it doesn't feel as an hardcore off roader. Plus the body roll factor and higher centre of weight in compact SUVs worry me. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Girl : Enjoy your BrezZa on the beach, sir!!!
Abhik Das : no,... actually i'm here for i10 Nios.
Hahaha! Abhik doesn't like to mix pleasure with business! :P
Can you please help me in making a decision. I have shortlisted 3 cars Tiago swift and NIOS automatic transmission and it's clearly a close call for me. I tested Tiago AMT which is a tad sluggish but equipment and drive on offer is good.
NIOS automatic was not available for the test ride, I drove the manual ASTA which is light behind the wheels and isn't much confidence aspiring.
Remains Swift which I will drive this weekend. Please please suggest me for which car should I go.
Also tigor AMT will come too in the same price bracket when I consider NIOS automatic sports and Swift auto.
At your kind disposal..
Buy swift AMT which is excellent for driving, comfort.
First advice. Do not go for the AMT. Any AMT. They are slow, sluggish , lazy and rob you of automobile engagement and driving pleasure. But if you indeed want to shun the stick shift , the swift fits your bill the best.
The best car there is. I’ve had the grand i10 for over 3 yrs and upto 40k kms now. Low maintenance. Infact I know get my car serviced from Bosch service Centers, and oil changes from Shell pumps. I DIY most basic maintaining myself. My Mods include Philips Extreme Vision+ 60/55 Stock replacement bulb, TVS Airhorns, Leather Floor lamination and 3D mats with ambient lighting, K&N air filter with CATBack freeflow exhaust from Automech Engineers. I run 15W40 semi synth Shell oil. Couldn’t get iridiums for the Kappa Block. The only grudge is the 165/65 R14 tires which I will upsize to 175/65 R14. Rest all the car is much better sans airbags and abs but had push button start/stop and steering mounted audio control and the biggest advantage of rear AC vent. For those complaining about fixed headrest it’s actually just perfect for people upto 6 feet in height. The headrest is small and gives a feeling of higher roofline between the gap. Check a Dzire, Swift or Brezza to see what I mean. It feels claustrophobic in the rear behind the ugly humongous headrests of Maruti and the passengers can’t get a clear view of the road. All passengers can talk comfortably rather than having to poke themselves between the 2 front seats. The all back interiors of swift make the car look even smaller from inside
marvadisexvidio
Facelift Figo with 1.2L dragon, 3 MIL is a beast in performance and handling when compared to Gi10N n Swift. Gi10N is class leading with feature set and Swift has Pros of both worlds. Still I would rate Figo high, despite lacking some features, it's a Gem to own for enthusiasts like us for its Dynamics and Safety !
I agree with you bro. I own a 2019 Petrol Figo and the performance is unmatched. Totally unacceptable to say that the NIOS strikes a grander pose than figo
At first I didn’t like the front design but it grew on me and now I like it. This car sounds great but I will prefer the figo because of the power and safety it offers
Figo 1.5 diesel any day for me
Seems like you are addicted to torque! ;)
The reason y PD has 1.7 mil subs is bcos u guys made vids as petrol heads or bike enthusiasts... plz dont let dat go...
Whoever wrote the SUV referencing bit, high-five to you!
And Abhik, some of us like you, don't let the hate comments let your guard down!
Arunesh Mulay guard down? Wrong usage my friend
Thank you Arunesh!
Please bring back Glen and Ten Hutt together.
POWERDRIFT has LOST ITS CHARM.
Where has he gone?
And do you remember wsikh guy who reviewed xuv500 and many other videos
yes he was good too.
Bro.... i think glen left the powerdrift.
Why the negatives are not discussed, not even mentioned..??!! As if this car is “top notch” in every department..!! Reducing weight for higher mileage and handling is considered a “plus”..!! What garbage!
Sandeep Gupta what negatives.. ? It’s is the best in segment. I own the grand i10 older model for 3 years with 40k kms and can definitely say I’m satisfied even without Airbags or ABS.. tires are small that’s all. But im upsizing anyways. I have freeflow exhaust and I’m enjoying. Lots of highway and city drives. Service cost is low and that’s good no? So what negatives actually are you talking about? Unless you’ve had a comprehensive long term ownership or it’s just a fiction of your imagination?
A car review is ought to be a car review! It doesn’t mean to simply brag about it characteristics in a way that it’s perfect without even a single imperfection! He should have given a disclaimer at the very beginning that it’s a paid review! Anyway.. the car might be good, but is it good enough is the question.
PS: I have owned & enjoyed the good ol’ Accent at its prime, Wagon R, XUV 5oo, and own a Fortuner at present. Still has the Wagon R.
Reducing weight is not always a bad thing given that body shell is stiffer than before and there is no compromise on the chassis and body. Weight reduction can be achieved by reducing the weight of things that doesn't necessarily contribute in safety
I'm wondering from last night which old phone is that you guys showed that I have wireless charging
Does the tier company that sells the tiago rear lights, sell it for dirt cheap? The nios has it and so does the foreign honda brio.
Nice video bro...👍
Aap k pas to all colour available h,
Plz suggestion ...grand i10 nios me aqua teel, red and white me se konsa colour best rahega.
To answer your question powerdrift. Yes small cars does make sense. Not everyone can afford SUV's and i believe that there might be a demand for those small cars in the world. With regards to the grand i10 Nios. In my eyes it looks pleasant and there are notable changes about the place. Not to mention the equipment levels does look generous for a small car. Will love to give this car a test drive so as to compare to my current car the Suzuki Swift which I love soo much. From the looks of interior space there seems to be a bit more than the swift. However when it comes to driving I prefer an engaging drive. The swift delivers this flowlessly and manages to make me smile. Can the G i10 Nios do that maybe not as much as the Swift but not a bad car.
It looks like tiago from the back
Hi, I heard from some reviews that the nios is not good for long drive. Some complaints about driving dynamics. I liked nios but confused with such complaints. Can someone please clarify me how good nios is for long drives?
Nios is good caar
its not meant for highway. the tyres are too skinny and dont offer much front end grip, resulting in understeer. this too is one major bad thing i have about this almost perfect car.
@@dedasdude isn't the tyre 15 inch..that's same as swift
The staring doesn't weigh up much
The staring doesn't weigh up much in hight spped it seems not sure though. Just watched faisals review. Going to book nios now
Hey @powerdrift team, I have been following you for a long time and I love your videos. I suggest you to share your views on vehicle cooling system and AC.
Noted, Gnana. We shall try to include that in the videos.
Well compiled vdo
End is too classy👌🏻
✌️🤘keep posting
Cheers 🥂
Yup thanx for the vlog pal infact I do own one of the sweet radiator hot cake machine ya its a Magna variant and believe me after watching this video I felt mesmerized and now I am a proud owner and I have experienced it on the highway and what I felt its quite commandable and that is the reason why it is a prime rival of Swift......thanx to Almighty and my parents who make these happened....❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏
Sir mai i10 nios sports AMT lene soch raha hu, kya mera ye sahi choice h, ya koi or v option h, under 8 lakh mera budget h,
Best choice for amt go for it...acchi hai amt iski
Sir How's the Air Conditioner performance during peak summers in 40 to 45 Degree temperature.
For that, we would have to review it during peak summers!

Maruti Ignis zeta, and Ford Free style. Mere liye Design and feature s 1st priority hai main regular Drive nahi karta toh aap please suggest kar sakte hain kaunsa option behtar hoga?

Hi, what would be the right upsize for 165/65 R14J for the grand i10?
185/60 r14
175/60 r15
You can check what the top spec i10 has, that size would work too if different from already mentioned above

Don't know NIOS is better or swift but i can definitely say in motoring content powerdrift is king..their s no comparision
Hahaha! We wouldn't be anything without you guys!
The Swift is a better car. In terms or looks and performance. Handsdown
What about the boot space ?
can u compare i10 NIOS , swift and figo
When will it be launch in the Philippines?
Glen is replaced in power drift due to economic slow down???
What do you think is wiser option... elite i20 sport variant or Gi10 Asta variant?
Depends on what you prefer - more features, less space or fewer features, more space.
I20 is a higher placed car when it comes to market segment. Its a tiny bit more flashy and a little bigger than the i10. But nothing too good. If you want driving pleasure, i10 is the one to have. Hyundai's steering wheels tend to get lighter and duller as its cars get costlier.
i would suggest i10 Nios Sportz on road is much cheaper than i20 Base model i.e. Magna plus.
So why go for i10 nios asta, Go for i10 nios Sportz.
Thank me later!! :)
@@mr.kapoor3803 thanks all. I have gone for i10 Nios Asta and I am very satisfied. It just checks all the right boxes for me. Have been driving this for past 6 months and it could not be better in this price range.
@@SouravDharhere thanks for reply, i am myself confused between swift lxi+ modified or i10 sportz.
Yesterday i went to showroom and figured below.
I feel that for rear passengers i10 nios is best due to rear space ,back support ,thigh support and rear ac vents which swift lacks.
But in terms of driving i would like to have your review.
Please respond and please mention if you feel any cons.
Looks exactly like Tiago from behind
yup ...but interior is way above tiago....so as the price ..
@@rohitsharma-hc2tj not much
I don't know why everyone's hating this review where I see no problem at all
Well, people have the right to have an opinion, and it's the feedback- positive or negative that helps us get better. Thanks for liking the video!
It looks Swift from the front & Tiago from rear, really amazing looks. Stiffer chassis should make the car more stern but only a crash test can reveal that how much the car can endure & WHAT ABOUT THE BOOT STORAGE??
Hyundai grand i10 is fantastic . I REVIEW this 2 model. Asta & sportz.
The Tail Lights are strikingly similar to the Tiago
It's become the fashion these days to comment "tin can". The fact of the matter is almost all these comments are made by people who ride 150-200 cc motorcycles and many don't even own a car. Global NCAP is the next trending comment. Again made by people who haven't yet bought a car. Lakhs and crores of families have lived their lives with plenty of cars with enough fun memories safe kms on the road without even a single air bag. Relax. These cars are all built to the specification prescribed by the Indian Government.
Suddenly all are acting like if you dont have a car with NCAP 5 star rating, you will definitely die ... they are doing better propaganda than Tata Motors
@@shashind.9591 True
Wow, the interior is superb. I don't like black colour interior of swift and other cars.
I have 10 years old i10 and it was the only small car with cream colour interior like in luxury car. I am happy i10 comes with this light shade interior.
And the specs are top notch as always by Hyundai.
Loved the Review! Spot on, as always PD
❤️Great Cinematography💜
Powerdrift is now all about what features the car provide!!! They don't talk much about chassis, driving is it fun to drive or not!! How's the engine? Compare to others! In every car review video u most of the time talk about gizmos!! Gizmos is part of a car! Not whole car!!! Plssss powerdrift!
Video was superb one thing missing was a glance of boot space.
Too much buttering, looks like you got an handsome amount
Good video,
Forgot telling about the boot space??
Abhik just nailed it with the review much like the NIOS did to it's rivals
Seems like we have a winner in our hands!
@@powerdriftofficial resounding YES

@VISHWANATH TAWARE Coz of those DRLs !
I am confused between figo(petrol) and nios (petrol)... Which one to buy?
For mostly city usage Nios is great...For highways Figo is the clear winner ...For combination of city and Highway , Nios is better as the clutch of Figo feels heavy for city usage.
You guys drive SUVs in Gurugram and i10s over the potholes. What an idea sirji!
Haha, good one!

Why does he keep saying in comparison with Swift and Figo ? Isn't the Ignis also a worthy rival ? 🤔🤔
Although it does come in the same price bracket, it's quite smaller than these cars, Akash.
Ignis is tall body design which has crossover ground clearance.. These are not in same segment.
Good to know cheers mate !
And that is how you plant easter eggs. Great work @PowerDrift

Hey powerfdrift
Please give me one information
I checked almost all website
This i10 nios CNg version 's mileage is below 20km per kg, but recently Santro, wagon R, celero, etc.. these car's mileage is above 30kms per kg
Why?
While we haven't yet reviewed it, it's mostly because of the way the engine is tuned!
Classy presentation PD ❤️
Thanks!
I am bit disappointed with this video as I was waiting for this! Only talked about thee features but not exterior or drive quality particularly. Whether it is better than swift or not? Nothing
It’s a first drive, not a review

Thank you, Santanu!
Do check out our other reviews as well : czcams.com/video/dikoNw70Xm8/video.html
Could been provided adjustable headrest and hope no one will call tin can to hyundai too like MS for reducing weight.
well i wil still prefer figo....but i think this time nios has given something hard compition to there rivals...but i think figo will not seat silent....need a counter attack😂
Hello Abhik! I played it at 1.25 times the normal speed and you sound perfect. Just in case u care to consider
Hahaha, I'm gonna try that.
I hope TATA ALTROZ is good. Waiting for it eagerly. Please review it as soon as it's launched. And a proper review explaining space front and back, boot space in litres, tyres, variants, price, performance, mileage etc.
Just do a proper, detailed review.
We shall have an in-depth review as soon as we get the car!

Thanks!
Seltos cafe - enjoy your brezza sir 🤣
The taillights are practically the same as the Tiago!
Sound mixing at the end felt uneven ..apart from that it's PD style smooth flowing presentation.. nice and simple
Oops! Apologies about that, Amith.
We can see, now a days companies are reducing body weight of cars fir fuel efficiency and performance. The reviewer also thinking that as an advantage because of improved fuel efficiency and performance. Is it because they are thinking that indian are only concerned about fuel efficiency not about safety?
This tendency we can see in all manufactures like hyundai, maruti. Example, The best car swift, wagonR, Grand i10, etc. (If you have ever in a old swift and new swift you will definitely feel changes in body weight, the new swift doesn't have stability in high speed, flying like a bird, but older one was just superb). Without sufficient body weight, the safety features like ebd, air bags will not help in any situations. The accident histories proven this. We can see that the manufacturer including basic safety like EBD, airbags as standard in all variants, they shoukd also consider the body weight, i would say.....
Becuase most of the hatchbacks in india are failed crash test which is a fact and still peoples are buying those cars, wondered that peoples are not concerned about safety, only concerned about mileage. I think this data, forcing the manufactures to reduce the body weight for better fuel efficiency. Fuel efficiency is big matter, but i would say value of our life is more than that...
I have Nios Sportz CNG, but price is High 8.1 Lac onroad
It felt like a sponsored post. Try not to do in future...
Yogesh Singh why? Because you own or prefer Swift, Figo, Mercedes, BMW or just a perception?
@@AneeshKorrde As per the above review, everything in this car is perfect. This typically happens in any sponsored post.
Hatchback over SUV anyday. my hatch is Renault Pulse RxZ diesel top end variant. diesel has insane drivability..
What is with Hyundai? Why can’t they give adjustable head rests in i10?
Aditya Chowdhary I have a grand i10 it’s not needed as the head rest is perfect for my frame at 5.9 feet. Also the rear seat passengers can see the road and not feel claustrophobic behind the big ugly headrest of Maruti and actually gives feeling of higher headroom.. check a Swift or Dzire for space between Roof and Headrest and you will get my point.

Felt like a paid review
Looks pretty smart for a small car.. Loved the car puns btw..
Definitely does!
It’s good with interiors....but not a car for driving enthusiast, at least the automatic!
Looks really good.

Nice little car... The swift definitely has something to worry about
Thanks for taking notice of that!
Why isn’t polo tsi a comparison here ? Is it the price ? @PowerDrift
Polo tsi is a flop product. Car is kinda ok, but the dealerships are worst. It's sales figures are not that great to consider it as a competitor. Also Volkswagen market that car as premium hatchback, hence it's more of i20 competitor instead
Its old too old... But good... Vw srsly needs to update it
