    Value for Money

    PURCHASE:
    New

    DRIVING:
    Few thousand kilometers

    Exterior Awesome... Best designed hatchback in India.

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Overall comfortable, very spacious, dimming interior light is an excellent feature, glove box cooling doesn't work upto satisfaction. AC was too good on purchase but after 1st free service, the temperature was set to degree Fahrenheit, and cooling has become much low than desired at 24 degree Celsius. Sony memory stick loaded with songs reads but doesn't play. There is no manual for music system in the car.

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine performance is not upto the mark. My car has run over 1200 km in 3 months of purchase but in idle position the tuning (doent know the exact term)  seems to be high as compared to the silence of Chevrolet Spark. Pick-up on driving up on flyovers or bridges is low as compared to other cars which overtakes my i20 easily even while trying to compete with them.  Fuel economy is good and at par with other cars of this segment.

    Ride Quality & Handling Handling the car in city like Kolkata is too comfortable. Ride quality is very smooth.

    Final Words Good value for money.

    Areas of improvement In-built music system should be optional as this gives freedom to the purchaser to go for higher end music systems with far better sound quality compared to what comes as company fitted. Antenna is too long and there is no option to make it shorter. This cauises a great discomfort to me as it gets stuck to the beam of my garage while backing the car. Everytime I have to get down mid way and bend the antenna to garage my car. Saini Hyundai, Kolkata has no solution to this problem.

    Excellent exterior design and interiorsSteering though adjustible, strains right hand while driving for long,Sony USB doesn't work
