I purchased i10 Magna on MArch 12, 2008 after considering options from Santro, accent, getz, U-va, Swift and SX4. I choose to go with i10 because of its initial reviews. However, the car is overall OK but fuel economy is quite bad. I am getting an overall mileage of around 9 (50% time Ac on) on Delhi city driving. Its a big hole in my pocket. I am wondering y i hv not purchased a mide size car with better fuel economy. Even two of my friends has also purchased i10 and getting the more or less same mileage. Hyundai peple assured me that it will give a mileage of around 15-16 on city roads. I fm feeling cheated. Till date i hv completed 1600 kms and first service done. If anyone is planning to buy i10, please bear the furl consumption in mind. Santro may be a better option.

    In India we people are always looking for fuel economy options which i1o does not seems to achieve. Facinating interiors are last feature in india.

    Fuel economy of vehicle doesn't matter a lot in actual sence because how much money one can save in app.10 years run-ten thouasand or twenty thousand,the amount which can not change one economic life.It is fact the look,design,comfort and taste which makes one to go for cars like I-10 or Zen.If u really want to save money then just go for TATA's Indica.

    Rahul, taste and comfort are definately one should consider at the time of buying, but please apprecitae most of the people who are buying small cars are definately lokk for a better mileage, as cost of car may be one time but operating cost will be of the lifetime of the car.AND DONT FORGT, company is claiming mileage atleast 10% higher than santro. As far as style & comfrt, we r payng xtra 4 dat over santro or Indica.And trust, i m not denying the positivs but highlightng negatives.
