Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)
While the overall car is good, a basic feature of the AC is rubbish. I purchased a Xcent Petrol and got the AC of the car repaired 2 times within 4 months of purchase. After that even the AC cooling is very little because the AC cuts off too soon. If you use this car in the summer, you will have the run the car AC on 3, to even feel that the AC is running, while not really cooling the car. The company gives me explanation that technology has changed so it functions differently. They ask me to run the AC on 3, then bring it to 2 and then to 1 to get the car cool. So am expected to do this everytime i start the car on every signal in the city.
Hyundai is fooling its customers as they make the AC cut off sooner than required, automatically increasing the fuel efficiency but leaving the car hot on the inside. I regret my decision of purchasing the car, given Mumbai is hot almost 365 days, but the car is missing a basic feature, cool the inside of the car.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox
Fuel Economy seems good because AC cuts off too soon. However company expects you to run the AC inside the car on a higher blower all the time to get decent cooling, automatically hitting the fuel economy.
Ride Quality & Handling
Final Words
Basic feature of an AC cooling the inside of the car is complete rubbish. You cannot expect even 10% cooling inside when driving during summer.
Areas of improvement
