The Grand i10 Nios gets a sole 1.2-litre petrol engine and is paired to either a 5-speed manual or a 5-speed AMT. There's a CNG version too and the engine can also run on E20. The 1.2-litre motor gets the job done though it lacks the pep of Maruti’s K12 engine. It works best in city, and with a light-steering and good ride, the Grand i10 is a friendly city car. The previously available 1.0 turbo petrol and 1.2 diesel engines are no longer on sale.

It is a sensible and well-equipped family hatchback that is at home in urban environments.
