Insight summary

Hyundai I10 is a common model in this snapshot, with 216,759 represented vehicles and 0.52% of the active UK pool tracked by AutoRank. For the last 5 years, it has a pass rate of 78.7% from 1,466,398 MOT tests, with a reliability score of 51. The current pool shows an average of 55,827 miles and an average age of 11.3 years, while mature-fleet mileage is estimated at 62,082 miles. Petrol leads the fuel split, followed by diesel, and the most frequent defect themes are lighting, parking brake and windscreen damage. The practical read is that the Hyundai I10 looks like a solid used-car baseline rather than a rare find, with age, mileage and common wear items doing most of the explaining.
