2008 Hyundai i10 from Malaysia - Comments

Purchased brand new car.

Alignment and steering pooling was noticed after taking the car home.

Send for checkup/repair.

Funny thing I was issued a bill.

Shouldn't they provide free service due to their negligence (during colllection and car inspection)

Currently having other major issue.

Car won't start.

Ignition problem and create funny irritating noise.

What a joke

Car was reviewed OK or good by world wide automotive review.

Yet many funny and irritating issue was found after purchased this little car.

I also bought one for my wife. No problems but the f/c seems high. How far can you go on a full tank of 30 liter?

The fuel consumption is HIGH. And I certainly AGREE!!

I believed all of us have been deceived & cheated by their ad campaign, which highlighted for 1.1L manual at 20KM/l or auto at 17KM/l.

The car get me around 10-12KM/l.

Plus I've send the car for checked as it creates cranking sound and cannot start.

Apparently Hyundai Malaysia noted the flywheel was defective.

Again, very funny as this was the first i10 registered for consumer in MALAYSIA and only done first 1000km service.

We are sure been fooled by them.

I've just bought i10 last week. At this moment, no problem at all. This is the best small car I ever had. I recommend it to those who need a new car with low consumption on fuel. Mine is auto 17km/liter. Depends how you drive.

I believe you can only get that if on the highway. I took 2 people down to Singapore and a full tank of 30 liters goes 500km with air-con on. That works to about 16-17km per liter.

I think it may be best to find out if can reduce Idle RPM or other engine tuning to reduce wastage while sitting in traffic. It's quite a stable car though, not bumpy.

Yeah you can get as you said 16-17/L on highway.

Normally I bet you should get around 12-15/L in city.

But look on the bright side, you still can go far with a 1.1L CVVT & 35L tank capacity.

Noticed the car is stable on speeds like 120-140km.

Braking system is good: ABS.

Would recommend others (city driving).

I bought a car a month ago, and the first thing I noticed was that the fuel consumption is not as stated -17 km/lit. It is only between 10 -11 km.

I think it depends on how you drive. Because this is not a 2000 CC car, you need to be patient to achieve good fuel consumption. I think this is a great car.

I bought an i10 two and a half weeks ago. I've driven the car only in city traffic for about 1,300 kms. I'm quite happy with the car, Not a single problem so far. It's really light on gas (14 - 15 km/lt) only city. The manual suggests not to drive the car over 4000 RPM (around 120-125 km/h) during the first 1000 kilometers (break-in period). I've already done that.

I really recommend this small vehicle to any small family or people who are on a tight budget (actually the interior is larger than most cars in its segment).

I also a driver of an i10. For me, this little car was good performance and stability. For those who never try it, they will not know the situation... Good car...
