“The car has a unique look. It gives a fuel efficiency of 20 kilometres per litre,” he told Bernama at the pre-launch campaign here Wednesday.

He said the car has motor-driven power steering that only could be found in the premium cars like Audi and BMW.

“The car comes with a five-year or 3,000-km warranty or whichever comes first,” he said.

Ho said the i10 was designed by Hyundai for the global market, especially for developed countries like Europe and the US, due to rising demand for a safety car.

The car was recently launched in India.

It has a power steering system and comes with the option of a four-speed automatic transmission for ease in city driving.

Scoring on safety, the i10 comes with anti-lock braking system, seat belts with pretensioners, dual airbags for the driver and front passenger as well as an impact sensing auto door unlock mechanism that automatically unlocks the doors upon impact.
