Is the Hyundai ix20 petrol model suitable for 10,000 miles per year?

I am thinking of buying a Hyundai 1.6 auto ix20. I only drive 10,000 miles each year and petrol, I believe, is the best choice for lower mileages. Is this a good choice or do you have other suggestions? I don't like low-slung cars, they are hard to enter and leave with poorly knees.

Yes, petrol is your best choice for short distances. The ix20 is a good choice of car: comfortable, upright seats and excellent visibility.
