Wow a whole lotta viewers found this review unfavorable ! : O I for one loved the heck outta this review and am amazed every year at the kind of kit hyundai put out with their cars and how they offer a really good value package for buyers ! I'm not a fanboy though, I chose a fabia over an I20 when I had to make a purchase :p About the video, the shots of the cubby holes was perfect, the one with the abandoned petrol station, the one with the water flowing from the dam, the driving shots were the best I've seen anywhere ! Powerdrift, keep this up and you'll put top gear outta business :p
Just a thought... why not start giving vehicles that you review score out of 10 based on all the different parameters that you judge them with and then finally come out with an average total score?
dear powerdrift I have purchased grandi10 asta automatic nd I have driven the car almost 790km nd it has given me the average of 11 is there any chanches of increasing the average as the km increased... reply nd thanks
Great work guys! The first part of the review was good where you explained what features the car has to offer. The second part though does not seem up to the mark. If you are comparing the Grand i10 with Swift, what swings the balance in favor of Swift is the handling. Though the Grand i10 feels stiffly sprung than other Hyundais, what lets it down is the dead steering. It feels over assisted and has a mind of its own. It weighs up inconsistently and can get really frustrating at times. And thats what lets it down in terms of a driving feel, which the Swift nails by the way. That could be a deal breaker for many. The other thing that the Swift gets right is the engine which has much better power delivery than the Hyundai 3 cylinder pot. You are left wanting for more in the Grand i10, especially on the highway. But Hyundai always delivers on what the average Indian customer wants - A fully loaded and comfortable car which takes the user from point A to B without worrying much about how it does that!
Grand i10 feels more spacious and it has more boot space and lot more features, also the dashboard feels much better, I really love how grand i10 steering feels, I really love it especially when steering through narrow roads in the city, and its a breeze to drive in the traffic. Swift may feel bit punchy in terms of handling, but if you consider the over all package, grand i10 wins the race hands down. Obviously grand i10 owners are most likely from big metropolitans and nothing beats Grand i10 in the city. Also its not so bad in the highway, if you do not want to push your car too hard in to 120 to 140 zone, grand i10 scores really well in highways as well. There is little reason to opt for Swift over grand i10, but there are more reasons to opt for grand i10 over swift. :)
Fantastic review, the first presenter was awesome, the third one, not so much. The one who was doing "trems of trems of trems of .. whheeeuf whheeeuf" .. lol
i have heard other reviews stressing the fact that the suspension is on the softer side and that the handling dynamics of the car is not as sporty as swift .
I am getting 12 kmpl(with ac) in city... for petrol 1.2 litre engine. n highway 16-17 kmpl (with ac) on highway... grand i10 owners how much are you getting in city/highway... for petrol version... I am happy with the highway mileage but city its too low.... I donno whether its because of my driving ability or its car actual output...
finally grand reviews already got it booked on sunday the 22 gr8 review as always ten hut wish u a speedy recovery bro i agree to at this range its heavily packed with features
I am kinda waiting for the review of the new Xcent. I feel the faster you release the review video, the more viewers you're going to earn and henceforth cranking up PD's review respect ;). Please do work on fast. I can't wait to another good quality review. I also understand quality comes with time but if you can trick that factor out, you would get awesomely qualitative viewers in large quantity
Fair enuf!!! Bt din feel d charm nd energy of ur regular reviews!!! Felt vry plain!! M sure d whole team of PD r al workd up abt rohans crash !! Hope hes doin fine!! wishn hm a speedy recovery!!! Get wel soon buddy!!!
Hey Guys, Great Review..! I really love your reviews :-) I am confused between Grand i10 Petrol & Swift ZXI. Which one would be the better choice between the two?
Need some advise... I am planning to buy my first car(petrol).. Shortlisted to Swift, Grand i10 and Brio.. Swift clutch is too hard and wasnt comfortable in high traffic and low speeds.. Narrowed down to Grand and Brio... I found brio handling and ease to drive top notch.. wanted to drive more.. Grand i10 felt like neutral driving.. steering was sensitive and suspension bouncy in bad roads..but build quality and features are too tempting.. Please advice which one is better car to buy in ur opinion..
hi did you bought grand i10? If yes please share your experiences. I'm also planning to buy grand i10 but from various channels came to know it has battery drainage problem. car is not starting if not used for 3-4 days. what's your experience. Thanks
***** Awesome stuff - yeah, eagerly waiting for that..!!..And No disrespect to the content of this video, I mean it is informative in a way, but missing Charles' inputs big time, considering the car as a debutant..!!
Great review as always ! Im a avide follower of your channel, and I was hoping if you could review the sedan version of Grand i.e. Hyundai Xcent as it is much awaited car !
I own Hyundai Grand Automatic version purchased by me in January 2015. The car is excellent, grand driving experience and overall its fun. On negative side, consumption is bit high. In Mumbai the car gives average of 10 KM/LTR ONLY. Its too low. Swift gives over 13/14 KMPL in Mumbai. I have noticed that this is mainly because the engine is set at very high rpm ( I understand its 800 rpm). This consumes very high petrol in ideling condition. For self driven cars, where owners are capable of manevoring engines in idealing condition, Hyundai should consider possibility of setting 650/700 rpm level in idling conditions. This will definitely improve milage of vehicle.
PTR , u build up an entire new refreshing atmosphere in the start jus lik in any of ur review which s really admirable n definitive, but that subsided substantially by the end of ur review.. u failed to deliver a final verdict on this car.. the final half of the review was a real let down for me which never happened to me before..u really need to find a way to sort out the way u presented the handlin n dynamic aspects of the car..really lookin forward for ur other reviews..:)
Thanks for the review. But Sorry PTR, you might lose your subscribers if this style continues. This review seems to be a more biased review unlike what i have seen from PTR. Agreed its much cheaper that Swift but taking away a cylinder out of the equation does not seem right. Adding to this, the comment from reviewer saying it handles better when i myself have experienced it to be set soft and rolls a bit just did not feel convincing. Having been a fan of PTR, and made many of my friends to sub to your channel, this review does not seem to be of usual PTR standard. Missing out on the fun stuff as well from TenHut. Wishing for better reviews next time. Thanks.
Well I don't want a fan war here but don't you think your comment is biased itself? My parents have few marutis and I bought my grand 3 months ago (5K till now and that includes 2 trips to mussoorie and 2 600KM up and down trips) never felt it inferior to swift (not comparing it to dezire of course). You're entitled to your view but calling a review totally biased and regretting recommending friends is kinda rude...my views.
Amit Tiwari Its not a fan war dude.. Its a fact.. Till now no car in hatch back segment able to match Swift's riding dynamics and perfomance.. Its truly a master piece from stable of Suzuki.. Still the undisputed champ... !!!
Hello, I've booked Hyundai Grand i10 Sports in Petrol Variant. My question is? Is it good to go with Petrol Engine or should I go for Diesel engine? As I go on long weekend trips only? So what will you suggest me.? And even should I go with this car or any other suggestions? -- dINESH hIRANANDANI
I want to buy grand i10 (asta optional-petrol variant) for city driving only ...but i just love the looks of i20(sports) a lot more than this car... little difference of budget between the two is no problem. Few points that concern me are- MILEAGE, MILEAGE and MILEAGE .. so i20 looks wayyyy better and is a segment above than this. i10 has improved ride quality but untested and new. am little tilted towards i20 because of the way its Looks, Only! KYA KARU????
what happened to you PD ? i was a big fan of your reviews full of great editing and the use of marvelous graphics, but now i have seen your 2 latest reviews and they were totally dull in comparison to you recent reviews . hoping to get those reviews that really matches at your level . otherwise m still a fan of you ,
Guys, I have seen better reviews of yours. Please take time and give us full fledged reviews as you used to. And whats with the music??? Please, if thats a background music, let that be that. It was highly distracting and kind of irritating. Hope you guys take it in a positive note.
Dude, it was a very one sided review...the air con is very fucked up and the rear ac vents are of like no use. you might just blow cold air to each other's face instead of using the rear air con. The air con is much better in creta but i think given the conditions, s cross by suzuki is far better than creta when it comes to comfort and performance but then again it is my perspective. S cross doesn't has a rear ac vent but the cooling is fast AF. P.S. I own a Grand i10 and s cross and my sister own a creta, so this review is not biased.
Raghavan Chakravarthi I agree that these cars are from different segments but given that the i10 has an rear air con vent and still extremely less air flow, I think it is quite useless. I was also intrigued by the rear vent but it is of no use. What i meant to say was that the above car s cross has no rear ac vent but the cooling as compared to creta also is very fast and i think that hyundai could have slightly improved the air con in i10. Even the swift which is kind of a slight overpriced vehicle in my opinion, has better cooling. P.S. Overpriced because if you are able to buy swift at 7 lakh inr then you better invest 40 Thousand more and buy the alpha baleno.
Watching after 6 years
Missing this energy in now days ✌️influencers✌️
Fantastic review, special kudos to cameraman !!!
what is the ground clearance of the Grand i10? Thanks..
How is leg support at driver seat for 6 ft tall guy? In my budget I have options as i10 irde2 vs grand i10 magna vs celerio vxi manual. Thanks!
how is the performance of the 1.0 manual petrol variant? in terms of fuel consumption.
Explain some technicalities like bhp, torque, 0-60. People are getting smarter, so should your videos. Anyways, u guys earned fans, good job!
Isn't the automatic version available only in petrol?
Sir which is a better petrol car-Grand i10 sportz or swift vxi?
Wow a whole lotta viewers found this review unfavorable ! : O I for one loved the heck outta this review and am amazed every year at the kind of kit hyundai put out with their cars and how they offer a really good value package for buyers !

Powerdrift, keep this up and you'll put top gear outta business :p
whats the on road price in mumbai for the basic petrol
edition
Nice review, nice that you are not using too much of video editing filters for your videos, 5:00 to 5:07 looked too much overacted.
This was the first powerdrift video i watched! This one sold me! Came back after 4 years just to relive a good memory!
Ive heard there is no suitable auto box for this engine with hyundai I'm not sure what he said is correct
The way in which camera moved & captured the various features is just fantastic!
it under steers a bit 5:21 but i guess its common in all front wheel drive cars
Finally!!
An avg. Review....was expecting something grand...lol!
Just a thought... why not start giving vehicles that you review score out of 10 based on all the different parameters that you judge them with and then finally come out with an average total score?
dear powerdrift I have purchased grandi10 asta automatic nd I have driven the car almost 790km nd it has given me the average of 11 is there any chanches of increasing the average as the km increased... reply nd thanks
I have bought grand i10 Jan 2016 and I must say your review have quite fit to my expectation with car.. keep up the great work :)
+ahrar husain Thank you so much and congratulations! Ride safe.

If you are comparing the Grand i10 with Swift, what swings the balance in favor of Swift is the handling.

Good review..... 1:56, Audio mounted Steering controls!!!! HAHAHA!!!
Need some advise...
I am planning to buy my first car(petrol).. Shortlisted to Swift, Grand i10 and Brio..
Swift clutch is too hard and wasnt comfortable in high traffic and low speeds..
Narrowed down to Grand and Brio...
I found brio handling and ease to drive top notch.. wanted to drive more..
Grand i10 felt like neutral driving.. steering was sensitive and suspension bouncy in bad roads..but build quality and features are too tempting..
Please advice which one is better car to buy in ur opinion..
Aman Khurana buy Chevy beat

Hello,
I've booked Hyundai Grand i10 Sports in Petrol Variant.
My question is?
Is it good to go with Petrol Engine or should I go for Diesel engine?
As I go on long weekend trips only?
So what will you suggest me.?
And even should I go with this car or any other suggestions?

dINESH hIRANANDANI
+Simrat Singh thanx for ur response
May I know how much u r getting mileage??
+Simrat Singh yes
+Simrat Singh I have taken Petrol Variant
+dINESH hIRANANDANI Great decision. how much u getting?
+Simrat Singh only 15 in the city of Heavy Traffic
I want to buy grand i10 (asta optional-petrol variant) for city driving only ...but i just love the looks of i20(sports) a lot more than this car... little difference of budget between the two is no problem. Few points that concern me are- MILEAGE, MILEAGE and MILEAGE ..
so i20 looks wayyyy better and is a segment above than this.
i10 has improved ride quality but untested and new.
am little tilted towards i20 because of the way its Looks, Only!
KYA KARU????
Biased video. I would not even call this review just a big grand i10 advertisement.
Disappointing Review, Ride & Handling Better?? You must me kidding
grand is best
+Aayush singh Do you own one?
what happened to you PD ? i was a big fan of your reviews full of great editing and the use of marvelous graphics, but now i have seen your 2 latest reviews and they were totally dull in comparison to you recent reviews . hoping to get those reviews that really matches at your level . otherwise m still a fan of you ,
we have a hyundai grandi10 its not that fast but cool
Givenchy Sanico It isn't supposed to be fast! Cool, definitely ;)
Good but took much music...
***** yes and the video end is irritating
One word..... Disappointing.
Guys, I have seen better reviews of yours. Please take time and give us full fledged reviews as you used to. And whats with the music??? Please, if thats a background music, let that be that. It was highly distracting and kind of irritating. Hope you guys take it in a positive note.
what about safety?
If it's designed for European market ... Sell it in Europe not in Asia... Design for Asian market if u want to sell in Asia ... Smart***??
plz try to say 0to 100 of every car
Thanks for the suggestion! :)
Dude, it was a very one sided review...the air con is very fucked up and the rear ac vents are of like no use. you might just blow cold air to each other's face instead of using the rear air con.

S cross doesn't has a rear ac vent but the cooling is fast AF.
P.S. I own a Grand i10 and s cross and my sister own a creta, so this review is not biased.
You cannot compare i10 with S cross or Creta, both are different segments..

P.S. Overpriced because if you are able to buy swift at 7 lakh inr then you better invest 40 Thousand more and buy the alpha baleno.
The word is rear. R-E-A-R. Please stop saying "rare" seats, "rare" design and so on. It is quite annoying.
