I got my I10 Magna in September 2009, my utility is very low so till now I have driven only 9000km. Let me tell its great car and fantastic performer on road, be it city or Highway. Earlier I used to drive Maruti 800 so definetely the experience with I10 is excellent.
1) Driving - Very smooth and great maneuverability. Easy to handle and revving acceleration.
2) Power steering - Very soothing, use single hand and drive calmly.
3) Comfort - Space is contraint but it gives very copact feeling. Rear seat is comfortable though.
4) Mileage - Decent not great, I am getting 11kmpl as of now. My driving is mostly in city of Mumbai. If others can give me feedback on their experience with i10.
5) Gear Shift - Smooth, although I feel my reverese gear is cranky as it always make noise before shift. Please tell me if anybody else felt the same. Also I think the power in 2nd gear is low. On slope I have change to 1st gear.
Overall, its nice drive machine and I recommend to others to go for it. The new looks are good.
