      Exterior Good.

       

      Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Good in petrol not in LPG , Gas smells really bad inside, when we fill it up , and the back dicky space is fully covered by stephny tyre, so that is also not good.

       

      Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Worst ever i havent seen any of that like santro LPG, when four members goes in a Bridge it is not going up in the 2nd gear, we need to drop them out and go up and again make them inside.

       

      Ride Quality & Handling Driving is good and in high ways if we need to overtake a bus(private) in a empty road it takes 2-3 minutes minimum.

       

      Final Words DO NOT BUY A SANTRO CAR WITH A LPG . I HAD A BIG HEAD ACHE , RIGT NOW IAM FREE I SOLD IT NOW, IAM HAVING TOYOTA INNOVE ITS JUAT AWESOME,

       

      Areas of improvement PLEASE PRODUCE A GOOD CAR, IF YOU CANT DONT PRODUCE IT, i earned the so hardly and bought a rubbish car.

       

      THANK YOU

       

      Good car only with petrol version , LPG is a worst car in the world i hopeLPG pick up and MIleage is most Worst

      Exterior The car has good looks and also hard shell. Headlamps and indicators are good.

       

      Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Resonably good space, the dash board is good, Good power windows, Power stearing has good responce. bottle/cup holders are bad and non standard size.

       

      Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The mileage of the car is consistent. It has 14KM city(normal traffic) and 17-18KM long drive, Second gear shift is hard and is difficult in city driving conditions. The clutch becomes hard after 35000KM and had to change the clutch after 40000KM. I was told that most Santros have same problem.

       

      Ride Quality & Handling Good driving comfort in long drives. Back seat is not good, so the car is recommended for a very small family :).

       

      Final Words Good first time car, change car after 5 to 6 years.

       

      Areas of improvement The design of Shock absorbers should be looked at especially as it is real challenge for indian road conditions. Should improve the comfort for Back seat passengers.

       

      Driving comfort, Mileage ok,Back seat bumpy, Clutch complaint after 40000KM,

      I am riding santro from past 6 years and I have no issues with the car. Ride is smooth and mileage is 18-20km pr kg of CNG. Built quality is also very good, I met with many small accidents but no major dents on car.

      Exterior

       Good looking car. stylish Bright lights. 4 parking lights gives clear brightness to rear side persons

       

      Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

       It is small family car. comfortable for 4 members.  Good space at Boot. Back seat folding gives more space for couples want to take a journey.

      Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

       1.1L petrol engine give excellent performance in its class. good pick-up(if no AC). 

      We can feel smooth drive and almost nil noise inside. Infact re-started even it was in on condition in my earlier days. Based on my suggestions most of my friends begine with santro(pur)..later moved to different brands.

      Ride Quality & Handling

       Driving is comfortable even for long trips. I drove it for 43K KMs...still it is looks brand new.

      Final Words

       I purchased in 2007 till now enjoying the drive. Made more than 15 long trips(300-500KM).

      In general it is the best car in its class. More over best re-sale value.

      Any new buyer can start with Santro.

      Areas of improvement  

       Power steering.

       

      Good Fuel econ..best in classWith AC -low power for 75% load & service costs.

      Exterior Conventional design however suited for middle age and senior adults not so much for young adults.

       

      Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interiors are not at all luxurious compared to Chevy beat or other cars in the segment eg wagon R,seating comfort is zero especially in the driving seat and quite hard,orthodox speedometers and odometers Hyundai can update them to keep up with the times.

       

      Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Clutch assembly and clutch gets tight after a few 1000 kms and clutch is quite hard compared to other vehicles in the segment.

       

      Ride Quality & Handling Excellent and best to drive in crowded cities and places. Easy to park and ride.

       

      Final Words If low on budget and to buy your first car ,santro xing is your best option else go for i20, i10 not so much. Seating comfort is a compromise.Best for people who are mindful of their wallets.  Easy to drive, great fuel economy and service centres are well known for this car so any kind of service can be expected,easy to handle and smooth driving, though changing gear can be quite a menace due to hard and tight nature of the clutch. If a little more money can be spared, I would advise going for the chevy beat.

       

      Areas of improvement Odometers and speedometer, seating and interiors can be made more comfortable.

       

      Fuel economy,Excellent handling,smooth driveclutch gets hard and tight after a few thousand kilometers,interiors relatively not luxurious

      Exterior It ish balanced in shape as per indian liking (Previoulsty Santro sahpe was having a janpenese lolk) and beautiful in exterior.

      Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Space inside is quite sufficeint in its segment, particulary its double fold rear seat which give a large room for any parcel to be carried. Only problem I found is the rear to fixed plastic netted space for speaksr which put some resistence in keeping big article inside like children byclyle when folded. Diving is very smooth and  enough leg space give comfornt to driver.

      Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Very fine. Very nice. I never felt any problemc in 8 yers of my driving. Pick up is still lke when I got  it new.

      Ride Quality & Handling Ride is very comfortable and enjoying.

      Final Words Any one who is plannig to buy a car in this segment, I recommed him for Santro Xing. for small family.

      Gool looks and high monted seatsMonted Speaker space in bood space makes hinderance to keep big article

      Exterior Good and trusted exteriors which are not too flashy or too old styled the new santro is a pleasent to the eyes.

       

      Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Beige interior is difficult to maintain especially with the service centre people making it dirty with grease.

       

      Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Trusted Engine, No Complaints at all.

       

      Ride Quality & Handling The tyres that come fitted with the car is too thin. Doesnt allow you to do spirited drive, runs out of grip quickly. You can notice the same on highways when you speed above 90km/hr.

       

      Final Words I had bought aq HYUNDAI Santro xing GLS from "SANSAI MOTORS NALGONDA ADDANKI ROAD ph:08682248666" i got tortured so much by the showroom that i am planning to sell car as soon as i get the registration so pleeesa people of NALGONDA A.P. if you want to buy a santro which a exellent car please dont buy atleast from the above mentioned Dealer, ,Thank You. 

       

      Areas of improvement Improve the after sales and services thats all i ask no other demands.

       

      Best car in the classcustomer torture by service centres
