(except in India where both will sell)

I guess the speculation on the i10 replacing the santro does not seem to hold water once you think of it.The i10 has been positioned right in the middle of the santro & the getz. It is very common for a company to gain a customer at the entry level & then encourage them to move up their value chain,thus having products at all possible price points.My take is we will soon see a better entry level santro with the i10 serving as an upgrade to existing santro owners.

i10 Era -On Road in Pune 427468
No discounts so price difference is 440007/-

In 440007, you can get an extra Santro mate....

Anyways....yes, the difference is much but consider this....
In delhi one of the dealer is giving Santro GLS with beige interiors and wood finish.... He is charging 35-40K extra just for that...

Moreover, Santro is 10 years old in India whereas i10 is the new kid on the block so resale will also be much better...

Why are they calling it i10?

Old thread, new reply :-).

I read somewhere that the 10 means the 10 new "i" innovations they have put for the car. It seems the next versions of Getz, Verna etc will
be named as iN (where N is the innovations behind it).

I found it silly to believe.
