Hyundai Motor India Limited (HMIL) has launched a brand-new special edition of its Grand i10 Nios hatchback. Dubbed the Corporate Edition, the car carries a price tag of Rs 6.93 lakh for the manual transmission option and Rs 7.58 lakh for the AMT transmission option. Both prices are introductory and ex-showroom figures. The moniker was previously used for a limited-edition variant that Hyundai debuted in 2020 but subsequently discontinued in 2021. The Grand i10 Nios Corporate Edition is currently Hyundai's most reasonably priced model in the Indian market. According to the carmaker, this updated version improves the overall driving experience for buyers on a budget. Notably, there is a three-year standard warranty as well as a seven-year extended warranty being offered with the new model. Prospective customers may reserve the car via the brand's official website or in person at their nearest dealership; deliveries are anticipated to commence soon.
