The new Hyundai Grand i10 Nios mid-size hatchback has been launched in India with prices starting from Rs 4.99 lakh (ex-showroom India). It features a plethora of changes from the previous model in terms of exterior and interior design that makes it look sportier than before. We take a detailed look at the Grand i10 Nios below.

Exterior

The new front end features the latest iteration of the Hyundai’s cascading grille. It has a sportier look overall and hints at the increased width of the Nios. The Nios is 1680mm in width, that’s 20mm wider than the last Grand i10 hatchback.

The new projector fog lamps are placed beneath the air curtains, above the section that is designed to look like a sporty air vent. The Grand i10 Nios is the only car in the segment to offer projector fog lamps.

The grille design integrates the new boomerang shaped LED DRLs. It is coloured gloss black with most paint options. But if you opt for white or silver paint, the grille and the grille-surround is also finished in silver.

At the rear as well, the Nios is sportier than its predecessor with the more noticeable tailgate line that connects with the new tail light layout design as well. The Nios is still 1520mm tall, same as the previous Grand i10.

Like the Venue, it now has ‘Nios’ lettering in the centre under the Hyundai badge along with the Grand i10 badge on the top left. It also gets an extra strip of chrome at the bottom of the tailgate.

The rear bumper features indents that look like air vents with the sleek rear reflectors and a rear skid plate styled to look like a diffuser.

From the side profile, the Nios looks to have a more European hatchback kind of silhouette with the sloping windowline and rear end instead of the usual flat-back look.

The Nios measures 3805mm in length with a 2450mm long wheelbase which is 40mm and 25mm more, respectively, than the previous model. Despite the increase in dimensions, it is still 30-40kg lighter thanbefore.

It also features a floating roof design with the black cladding on the C-pillars. There is a textured G-i10 graphic on the C-pillars for an added bit of style. It still comes with roof rails as well.

Most notable in this dashboard layout is the 8-inch touchscreen infotainment unit that sits above the central AC vents and integrated into the instrument cluster’s panel. It features both Android Auto and Apple CarPlay smartphone compatibility. The unit also has few buttons and dials flanking the touchscreen display as more tactile controls.

The Nios gets a new steering wheel similar to the one seen on the Kona Electric. However, this unit gets steering mounted controls on the left side of the wheel only.

These controls are for the audio system, hands-free calling, voice recognition and for some of the digital MID controls too.

The Grand i10 Nios’ instrument cluster houses a 5.3-inch digital multi-information display. On the left, it gets an analogue tachometer with a chequered-flag design and the right side has a ring to mimic an analogue dial but actually houses part of the MID. It displays the current speed, odometer, fuel indicator and a few other bits of information as well.

The fact that the outer ring of the tachometer extends to include the MID with the curved edge is a nice design touch as well.
