Hyundai Go Blue

On the eve of Hyundai's Geneva debut, where the all new Hyundai iX35 will be revealed, the Korean giant will also showcase a plethora of eco-focused Blue Drive vehicles.

The i10, i20 and i30 will undergo a number of tweaks to transmissions, tyres and aerodynamics, aided by ISG technology, in order to achieve to the sub-100g/km range.

The i10 will employ a new efficient 1.0 petrol engine, emitting CO2 of just 99g/km, whilst the i20 with 1.4 CRDi engine will be mated to a new 6 speed manual transmission and produce just 98g/km of CO2. The i30 uses the 1.6 CRDi 90PS engine and produces CO2 emissions of just 98g/km and 99g/km for the hatchback and estate models respectively.

Hyundai Reduce Amica Prices

With the impending launch of the all new Hyundai i10 drawing ever nearer, Hyundai dealers have been getting concerned that surplus stock of the outgoing Amica will be difficult to sell when the i10 hits the showrooms on April 2nd with a price point of £6,495.

To remedy this Hyundai have announced price reductions on the top-of-the-range CDX manual and automatics from £6,617 to £5,995 and £7,467 to £6,495 respectively. The basic Amica GSI and Atlantic prices remain the same at £5,995 due to low stock levels.

The Amica was re-introduced in the UK in 2006 as a stop gap whilst the Korean car maker revised it's small car strategy. Based on the Santro Xing which was exported from India and based on the original Atoz and Amica has done suprisingly well in the UK offering cheap and cheerful transport for under £5,000.

Now that's all about to change as Hyundai introduce a new family of models based around the 'i' brand over the coming months and years.

The new price reductions for the Amica CDX manual and automatic take effect as of today.
