Ancaster Hyundai - New & Used Cars in Catford and Welling

The Hyundai i10 Blue has received special recognition at the inaugural Honest John awards (www.honestjohn.co.uk) this evening as the 'Most genuinely economical petrol-engined car'.

The i10 Blue is a recent addition to the popular i10 range and offers customers even greater value for money than ever before.  It emits just 99g/km, so it is exempt from VED and the London Congestion Charge, delivers a combined fuel economy of 67.3mpg and costs from only £9,195.

Dan Harrison, Honest John's editor, commented: "Nothing gets our users going quite like fuel economy: when consumption in real life fails to live up to the official published figure, they soon let us know about it. So it's good to be able to reward the models which come closest to matching - or improving on the official fuel consumption figure and the Hyundai i10 Blue is one of the best examples of this by genuinely delivering over 60mpg in real-world driving."

Tony Whitehorn, Hyundai Motor UK managing director: "Hyundai is committed to researching and developing cleaner, more efficient powertrains to reduce fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.  The Blue drive system - which includes an ultra-efficient 1.0-litre petrol engine and Intelligent Stop & Go technology - ensures that the i10 Blue is one of the cheapest cars to buy and run on sale today."
