Hyundai i10 Electric Launched
The i10 Electric made its world debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September, 2009. Slated for a limited series production run in 2010 in the home market of Hyundai - South Korea, the all new i10 Electric is an embodiment of Hyundai's radical, transformative vision for the future and the culmination of decades of investment in research and development.
On the occasion, Arvind Saxena, Director (Marketing & Sales), HMIL, said, "A growing awareness amongst consumers for all things green inspired us to introduce the electric version of our immensely popular compact car - i10. It is truly a real-world car with zero emissions, and the unveiling today, marks the first step in what is sure to be an exciting journey - for people all over the world, for Hyundai and for the industry. We hope that the heightened interest in electric vehicles will present us with a huge opportunity to bring in EV technology to the Indian market in the near future."
Powered by a highly efficient 49kWh electrical motor and a 16kWh battery, the i10 electric uses advanced LiPoly (Lithium-Ion-Polymer) technology with numerous advantages over other batteries. The low kerb weight and the evolved battery technology gives the i10 Electric a driving range of 160km on a single charge to satisfy real-world consumer requirements with a top speed of 130kmph.
