Verdict: With four airbags, TPMS, and other segment-first features, the 2023 Hyundai Grand i10 NIOS stands apart from the competition. We may anticipate similar adjustments in the Grand i10 NIOS-based sedan Aura. The brand has tweaked the engine to comply with upcoming RDE requirements. The brand has not yet disclosed the price of the 2023 Grand i10 NIOS, but given the addition of additional amenities, we estimate it to be slightly more expensive than the present price.
