Hyundai Motor India has silently updated the Grand i10 hatchback and Xcent subcompact sedan with more features, amidst growing competition. The additional features are available on the mid-level Hyundai Grand i10 and the top-spec Hyundai Xcent. While both the Grand i10 and the Xcent are running in the facelifted avatars, the competition coming from the Maruti Suzuki Swift and Dzire, as well as the Honda Amaze for either models, has taken a hit on the company’s popular offerings.

The additional feature list includes exterior and interior add-ons and will make both models more lucrative choices in their respective segments.

The infotainment system also comes as standard on the variant.
On the range-topping Hyundai Xcent SX, the model now gets a boot mounted spoiler, 7.0-inch touchscreen system with the Hyundai iBlue app and a segment first wireless charging. The latter was first introduced on the Hyundai Creta facelift earlier this year.
