Hyundai has achieved two new milestones. Hyundai i10 was rated the country’s most fuel efficient petrol car in the compact segment. Not only this, the best-selling model in Hyundai’s range of cars has also emerged as the top seller in the ‘over 1 litre of capacity’ segment.
The BS IV compliant car powered by a 1.2 litre Kappa engine under test conditions has achieved a spectacular mileage of 19.81 km to a litre of petrol. This is the best in class ARAI-certified fuel efficiency, among petrol cars in compact segment in India. The high fuel efficiency coupled with environment friendliness makes Hyundai i10 an affordable transportation solution with a low carbon footprint for customers in India.
During the financial year 2009 -10, Hyundai i10 sold a 149,242 units in the domestic market thus breaking all previous records and becoming the highest selling car in the ‘over 1 litre of capacity’ segment.

I dont know how the heck did anyone manage to get a 19.81 km/litre reading on this junk.
I have tested it with RON 95 and RON 97, without AC and switch off the engine when cruising downhill and still got only 12.2333333333333333333333333333333 km/litre!
