Q.Confused between Hyundai Grand i10 and Maruti Suzuki Ignis

[QUOTE=JOY MRC;n16342]I strongly suggest you wait. The Ignis is around the corner and so is the Grand i10 facelift.[/QUOTE] I second this, it is better you wait for some time now [USER="6568"]Anup_Raut[/USER], let's get these two compared after they are launched. If you are in a hurry though, the Grand i10 is not a bad car to buy and own.

[USER="155"]Ronny[/USER] yes, you are right. Hyundai diesel engine's NVH levels aren't all that bad. They are way better than Honda's 1.5-litre i-DTEC for sure. [USER="6568"]Anup_Raut[/USER], I really like the Ignis. Even I have been waiting for its launch and Maruti to announce the price to see if I can afford it in the future. I love the retro-modern looks and spunky interiors. It certainly looks like no other Maruti from before except probably the first generation Swift. I do hope it does come in the coming months instead of next year. I just hope buyers in our country can warm up to the looks as the design is not for everyone.

[QUOTE=JOY MRC;16119]"[B]Originally posted by JOY MRC"[/B] Hyundai India seems to be readying a facelift for the Grand i10 hatchback.Testmules are spotted on the Chennai-Bangalore Highway and have surfaced on the Internet thanks to the prying eyes of enthusiasts.The hatchback was launched back in 2013 and it is due time for a ~3 year mid life facelift like with all hyundai cars. [IMG]https://media.zigcdn.com/forum/filedata/fetch?filedataid=7466&type=large[/IMG] The hatchback segment is facing intense competition and with the launch of the Tiago,some drastic measures was in order.In the above image we can see a restyled Diamond cut alloy wheels and camoflaged front and rear giving us an idea that the car will come with a restyled front and rear end.Although we cant see through it,DRL's may be included since the Swift already has it.We saw DRL's being added to the Elite i20 at a later date which was earlier available only with the i20 Active. [IMG]https://media.zigcdn.com/forum/filedata/fetch?filedataid=7468&type=large[/IMG] We can see a sneak peek of the restyle front grille in the picture above and it looks better and fresh than the outgoing model for sure. [IMG]https://media.zigcdn.com/forum/filedata/fetch?filedataid=7469&type=large[/IMG] The Interiors of the car is also taped down.So expect a new redesigned center fascia with the inclusion of a touch screen with navigation like the i20/Active/Creta or atleast just a bigger color screen stereo.The built quality of the Grand i10 was always best in the segment and we hope it would continue the same way. [IMG]https://media.zigcdn.com/forum/filedata/fetch?filedataid=7467&type=large[/IMG] There may be not be any engine change and the car will continue to get the 1.1L 3 Cylinder CRDi Turbo Diesel and the 1.2L 4 Cylinder Kappa2 Petrol engine.There could be a small bump in power to the CRDi motor to aid in better city drivability and highway ride.From the pictures it seems the car is ready with official production tags on the side.We can expect the launch later this year but no official words are out as of now. Source - Motor.vikatan.com [/QUOTE] [USER="6568"]Anup_Raut[/USER], I strongly suggest you wait. The Ignis is around the corner and so is the Grand i10 facelift. It was seen doing rounds near Chennai (Hyundai Plant) and seems production ready. Even though launch dates are not yet confirmed, expect it to be out pretty soon. It should have better styling and features than the outgoing model. It wouldn't feel right if there is this new model out right after your purchase it. Even if you like the old one, you would get a lot more discounts after the launch of this facelift as they would need to clear off the old stocks. Regards...
