Congrats Nik on your buy.
Metallic red looks superb.
And Apollo Accelere is a great choice in tyres,I think its tubeless.
And why no fog lamps?
Which model is this?

Is Kappa a Top end model with all the features.
Or a total different engine?
What's the difference between this & Magna?

Hi All,

So here is my ownership review of i10 magna.

Its been 5 days that I am driving this car in delhi city conditions and now I am in love with i10 because of its sleek look and smooth drive. This is perfect for city driving and one can enjoy a lot while driving this car.

Things I liked in the car:-

1. Engine is very peppy and there is no engine noise in the cabin.

2. Great city mileage ( I am getting 13 Kmpl right now but I am sure that i'll get more after first service)

3. Best interior in its class.

4. In magna model they have given stearing wheel adjustment feature which is really a good feature in this price tag.

5. Suspension is really good, one will not feel small pathholes inside the car.

6. A/C performance is really good as it chills the cabin very fast in delhi high temperature condition.

7. Decent pickup

8. Decent space for 4 adults.

Things i don't liked in the car:-

1. Power windows are not so good.

2. Less boot space.

3. First gear is little bit hard and get stuck sometimes( please let me know is this problem is coming with everyone or not?)

4. There is no handrest on left hand side of driver as it is very much needed when the position of gears console is high.

These are the points which I have make out in my 5 days experience with the car.

In whole this is a best car for city driving.

i'll post some more pics after some mods.

Regards,

Nik

Hi Nik,

I10 is an awesome car. Nice to know that you are happy with it.
Have a happy and safe drive.

About the gear that gets stuck in 1st, I think that wont be much of a problem when it crosses couple of thousands.

 

[mukeshus]

@ Nik looking forward for the pics.
And the gear in 1 st gear is hard because of air bubbles in the hydraulic fluid.
So before switching ignition on press & depress the clutch 3-4 times.
The shifting will be smooth.
As the car is new gear will be bit hard & smoothens after a few hundreds of kms.

4. There is no handrest on left hand side of driver as it is very much needed when the position of gears console is high.

Armrest is something which I too always prefer, be it for front or rear. Although, If you’re finding it really inconvenient, then there’s always an option to install one as an aftermarket accessory.

1. Power windows are not so good.

Could you elaborate a little on this one?

Drive Safe,
350Z
