Currently reading: New Hyundai i10 prototype spotted

Latest prototype of all-new model spotted during testing near the Arctic Circle

The next generation of the Hyundai i10 has been spotted undergoing testing near the Arctic Circle.

Seen being benchmarked against the Volkswagen Up, little is known about the all-new i10 but the styling of the new car does appear different from the previous model. 

Engine options will potentially include revised versions of the current model's 1.0- and 1.2-litre petrol engines, with either a manual or automatic gearbox.

Interior styling is thought to reflect that of the new i40 and i30 models, with the look and feel of the cabin notably improved compared to the previous generation.

The i10's range of equipment and options will probably expand as well, offering more connectivity and entertainment functions.

Production of the new Hyundai i10 is due to start in late 2013, with sales likely to commence in early 2014.
