Categories (out of 5)
Exterior
Compact compare to other in same segment, however gives sporty look. Non fluidic design but gives enough space for a small family.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)
Features like keyless entry and start/stop is unique. Gear Shift display helps in saving fuel, Cooling Glove box is an excellent add on.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox
Excellent, as just driven 100 odd kilometeres so can't comment on economy factor. Gear Shift is smooth and quick.
Ride Quality & Handling
Smooth........, Handling. Good Torque and remarkable accelration.
Final Words
Overall an excellent deal and value for money. Other manufacturers are providing less features and charges more. The Korea tech has been well tested and has produced veh as per Indian road condition. Less versions makes purchaser to choose easily without confusiing him/her.
Areas of improvement
Company fitted 2 Din should have be given as optional accessory. Seat fitted head-rest doesn't make any sense. It should have an option of GPS and other latest technology in it.

Exterior The Car is a decent looking car considering the price it is offered for. Ir doesnt stand amongst the most stylish cars but its a decent and good looking family car.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The Car comes with all basic features and additional add ons which are greatr at the price tag. it is comfortable for driving and can seat two people comfortably at the back. It can accomodate three od sized individuals at the back with efforts.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The car is good to drive in the city traffic. It has a smooth and comfortable feeling. As it is low on power one can just feel a bit of lag when on the highway. But a regular car user who really does not prefer to Zoom around qt high speeds will love the drive. I have been checking my average regulary. It gives me around 18 kmpl minimum in the city traffic for my diesel car, which I am happy and satisfied with. depending on the traffic situation the average may slighly vary but it has never gone beyond the 17 mark ever. the Gear box is well placed and comfortable.

Car done 1000kms has oil leakage which cannot be identified by the showroom mechanics here in bhubaneswar. very weird. did also see another car bought in may 2014 with engine sound . the whole engine is opened. this scares me . I wonder if anybody else is having similar problems with their Xcent. What does one do in these circumstances. Does the the hyundai company have a forum where they get to see and read these issues directly and come up with a solution straight away. why does the company not try and test these cars and then launch them in the market. I am told these cars and all other cars are designed to do 1 lakh and more kilometers effort lessly with no problem whatsoever. so what has happened to cars such as these.
So therfore i have not had a good experience buying this car. I wonder with competition in the market today how can companies such as hyundai afford such flaws to occur.

Exterior: need improvement in only rear exteriers , front and side views are amazing
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort): interiors are too worth in car price, also 3 din audio , bluetooth, 1 gb storage, stearing mounted controls these are some amazing features.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox: i got 19.2 KMPL on highway without AC..i think its enough with the digit.we cant expect more than this in any other sedan available in market.
Ride Quality & Handling: very smooth and easy handling , driving is too friendly. interiors plays good role to make driving pieceful.
Final Words
I am happy with my xcent it gives fully enjoyable experience with style. specially i am happy with petrol car fuel efficiency its 19.2 KMPL i got . its unbelievable i have checked it twice. both time it was above 19 KMPL.
Areas of improvement : little bit power need to increase as its just 1.2 Litr engine. still its good for city drives only on highways and long journey we miss the power little bit.

Exterior Xcent indeed looks graceful. Design is curvy and stylish.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) I am astonished to count the number of features offered in SX model including some unique and usable features such as rear AC vent, glove compartment AC. I was sceptical of glove compartment AC. So, I stored half a litre milk at normal temperature in the glove. I set temperature at 24 degree and drove this car for 9 hours. To my astonishment, the milk did curdle and remained cold. Space is adequate for 4, but not for 5 ( 3 in the back) as the passenger in the middle will face rear AC vent quite obstructive.
Night view feature in the mirror is awesome. All you need to do is to press the button at the center to tone down gazes of car lights.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine performance is superb and quieter. I drove on Bangalore H'Way right up to Kolhapur. Fuel economy of 18 KM was achieved. average speed was 70 KM/Hr.
Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality is superb. The only thing, Engine sluggishly responds in lower gears.
Final Words Xcent is surely a better option for peopel tired of using hatchbacks and do not want to spend money to buy full-scale sedans like Vento or Ciaz.
Areas of improvement NA.

Exterior
Good to look at. Exterior looks pleasing, but very disappointing on the inside
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)
Very poor in this zone. May be designed to be as most uncomfortable as possible. Seats feel like hard benches. Leads to back pain and severe strain for driver also. Air Conditioning performance is very poor, even though there is supposed to be a vent for the back seats.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox
Lacks power. If we cross 90, then the vehile wobbles. On the highway, very disappointing.
Ride Quality & Handling
Not good. Even on National Highway toll roads, it wobbles a lot, not so say anything on bad and not so bad roads. Makes one see a ortho speacialist after every ride.
Final Words
It feels like engine mounted on an oil tin. Bad quality seats.Travelled 20400 KMs from July 2014 to Feb 2015. (8 months).Now switched to Hyundai Verna SX(O) CRDI, a time tested car.
Areas of improvement

Exterior
Very good from the front and side profile. Ugly at the rear.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)
Rear comfort is good being a compact sedan for the reclined seat back, but thigh support in both front & rear seats is not as good as my i20. Space in the rear is just good for three average people. Rear leg room is good, much better than dezire. front space is also good. Best features includes rear A/C, driver seat height adjustment, electric folding ORVMs, electric adjustable ORVMs, rear parking sensor, rear view camera, bluetooth connectivity, steering mounted audio and phone controls, 1gb internal memory for songs and phonebook contacts,407 ltrs boot and lots and lots more. Dzire and Amaze lag far behind in this aspect.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox
Nice silent kappa2 engine. In the city very good to drive in the traffic. Good pick updue to decent low end torque means less gear shifting. But on the highways it has a soft, gradual pick up. In my earlier i 20 diesel, it was like a jet.
Mileage: I Checked nearly 10 times: 12-13kmpl in city with 100% A.C , 16-17kmpl on highway with 100% A.C and 20.5kmpl with no A.C on highway. Gear lever is placed up near the front console but its shifting quality is just average.
Ride Quality & Handling
Ride quality is decent and the car grips well on highway at speed. Body roll is very less while steering in the curves. My i 20 was very bad in this regard . The car is very stable and suspension is better than hyundai's reputation. Steering is smooth and better than earlier hyundai cars but amaze is far more ahead in this regard. Steering in amaze is amazing. Braking is very instant and sharp and it takes a few days for the driver to adjust.
Final Words
A very good car at this price point. Good engine, good fuel ecinomy, space and features with hyundai's good after sales service its really tempting if you can bear with that ugly rear.

Exterior Exterior is good, missing fluid concept at back side. Alloy wheels really matches with the design.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Very well managed space, comfirt. Features are good. Music system is good. Dashboard is managed well. Rear AC vents are good. Bootspace is good and vell managed. ACC is good.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine offers more economy than company suggests. 1.2 petrol engine giving a very strong response wherever required. Gearbox is very easy and operates very smoothly.
Ride Quality & Handling Ride qualiry is we managed and handling wiht ABS is very + point(It survived me twice :P). Drive the cars with the speed of almost 120/130 and stable on the road, no scary feeling.
Final Words Value for money really and Hyundai managed it very well. 4 mtr sadan is really a good option for the people who is looking for budgetr sadan. 5 average adults can easilly adjust.
Areas of improvement Add fludic design to exterior, basically at the back side. Only aera they can improve.

Exterior
The exterior is not the german car or the japanese car types but it is decent as it is a shoot right out of the grand i10, so average looks, but not too bad like the etios or the Amaze.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)
The Interiors are really exciting like the Dashboard with Bluetooth technology and steering mounted controls with phone call support as well as the rear AC vents. The bottle holders on the doors hold the normal aquafina or bisleri bottles unlike all other same segment cars. The Air Conditioning is really very good and at 1 or 2 cools th cabin without the need of the rear ac vents open. the USB doxk and the power inputs are neatly placed and easily accesible as well. ample of space to keep your small titbits. The cool Glove box is also an advantage. The Rear Space is quite good with the armrest and glass holders, but 3 heavy persons will be a bit difficult to accomodate behind. The Drivers Seat height is adjustable ad so is the steering wheel. The Trip meter is super and its controls are on the wheel as well. Only dissapointment is the Horn. It is very stiff and feels plasticky and noisy when in use. But a small issue which can be ignored as every car has its cons.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox
The Engine is Wow...I didnt think i would get such a good mileage on the car as i just travelled to pune and back and the car gave me an average of 20 kmpl, which is amazing for a petrol car,
Yes the engine is a bit slower on the highways but there is a technique to handle it, like whenever i needed some power for overtaking or something simila I always used to upShift first see how the gear is coping and then down shift for max torque and when the momentum is back I upshift again. this way I have got good results. But in the City traffic it is the best car which even beats the Dzire, it is too good for crowded areas and you can easily manouvre it smoothly.
Ride Quality & Handling
The Handling of the Car is very practical and very smooth just like the Polo. It gives the feel of safety and comfort together and in sticky areas it is very good. I only sat once in the rear seat as i am the only driver in my family but when i was seated it felt like you are in a sedan and the bumps were very little to feel, beautiful Suspension.
Final Words
Well I would recommend this car to them whose budget is just under 7 and are probably looking for a small car. This car is a dark knight amongst all other cars in its segment. The service is excellent. I had researched so many cars before this decision of mine . like the dzire the amaze even the polo but feature wise and price wise this car was the best along with the zest but the zest being a tata product and because of its bad service history I rejected it. The only car which was competition was the Dzire but it offered only half of the features which the xcent offered. Therefore We chose the Xcent and are very happy for our decision. Kudos Hyundai
Areas of improvement
Only area for improvement I guess is the Horn and the Braking which you have to get used to after some time, Rest all is all shiny for the Xcent.
