The letter "i" has great significance in the motoring world. It first came to prominence as a boot-lid indicator that the engine of the car in front had fuel injection. A couple of decades ago, company reps were said to be particularly proud of this bit of oneupman-ship because some considered that it also stood for "important".

Wonder if the impressive 56mpg are US or UK? If UK, that means it
would get ~67mpg, no?

That mileage is indeed very impresive. The i10 made it's debut in
India but it may have a diffrent powertrain since the mileage isn't so
high there, Oh wait a min they give km per litre to be around 20
(actual user figures) So when you convert to MPG I guess it kinda
evens out ..

I am not very certain this buddy of mine is a frugal driver. I
remember on a bike which advertised 100 kmpl & the average Joe would
get around 70 min this dude never got more than 55. Of course those
figures where in college, & hopefully he has matured ;)
Bottom line the figures of 56mpg could be realistic :)
