City-wise price variance
Resale values for the Grand i10 Nios vary by 3–5 percentage points across Indian metros, driven by supply-demand tightness, RTO transfer friction, and CNG infrastructure. Numbers below are deltas against the all-India mid.
What drives the Grand i10 Nios's resale value
Launched in 2019 as a replacement for the original Grand i10, the Nios was built specifically for the Indian market on a modified version of Hyundai's small-car platform, with the sedan-bodied Aura later derived from the same underpinnings. As Hyundai's entry hatchback, the Nios typically serves as a first car for young buyers and small families, and that ownership profile, generally gentler usage and more consistent servicing, is a meaningful contributor to its resale strength relative to fleet-heavy competitors.
Diesel was offered only in the Nios's first year before the 1.2-litre CRDi was discontinued industry-wide ahead of BS6 Phase 2, so the overwhelming majority of used Nios units on the market today are petrol or CNG, both built around the naturally aspirated 1.2-litre Kappa engine. AMT-equipped Magna and Sportz trims hold a small premium over the manual for buyers who specifically want the convenience of an automatic in city traffic.
Factory-fitted CNG on the Magna trim has proven consistently popular in Delhi NCR, Ahmedabad, and other piped-gas-dense cities, where the running-cost savings are large enough that CNG Nios units often resell within a few percentage points of equivalent petrol cars despite the higher upfront variant price. In markets with thinner CNG infrastructure, the plain petrol variant remains easier to sell quickly.
Hyundai's extensive dealer and service network across tier-2 and tier-3 towns underpins the Nios's resale floor more than any single feature of the car itself; parts availability and predictable service costs matter disproportionately at this price point. The depreciation curve is typical of the segment, a steep first eighteen months followed by a steadier decline, with well-documented service history being the single biggest swing factor in what a specific car fetches.
How TheResaleValue calculates these numbers
Resale bands aggregate wholesale transaction prices across Indian metros, refreshed monthly. Age is calculated in whole years from the manufacturing date on the RC. Kilometre bands are self-reported and rounded to the nearest band. City adjustments apply an RTO-level multiplier on the all-India mid.

Frequently asked questions
What is the resale value of a Hyundai Grand i10 Nios in India?
A well-maintained Grand i10 Nios retains roughly 72% of its ex-showroom value after two years and 64% after three years, as of September 2026. A 2023 petrol Sportz with 25,000-50,000 km currently trades in a fair-market band of roughly ₹5.4-5.8 lakh.
Does the Nios CNG hold value better than petrol?
In CNG-dense markets such as Delhi NCR and Ahmedabad, yes, the Magna CNG trades close to equivalent petrol cars of the same age because buyers actively seek out the running-cost savings. In markets with thinner CNG infrastructure, petrol variants resell faster.
How much does the Grand i10 Nios depreciate per year?
The Nios loses roughly 17% in year one and 9-10% in year two, then settles into a 6-7% annual decline through years three to five, reaching about 51% retention at the five-year mark.
Is the AMT Nios worth more on resale than the manual?
It commands a small premium, generally 3-5%, among buyers who specifically want the convenience of an automatic for city traffic, though the gap narrows considerably on cars above 50,000 km.
Which city gives the best resale price for a Grand i10 Nios?
Delhi NCR, Mumbai, and Ahmedabad currently trade at roughly +2% above the national mid, while Kolkata trades at around -2% due to softer entry-hatchback demand.
