ஹூண்டாய் வெர்னா [2011-2015] யூசர் ரிவ்யுஸ்

Exterior: The material used starts rusting very soon. Few places i can already see the metal rusting. I owned an Accent before and have used it for about 8 to 9 years and its body has also rusted in many places literally having holes in the body.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox: Its 2 and half years i own the Verna and have driven about 49,000km. Once i faced a problem with coolant leakage however it does not indicate on the instrument cluster, even the temperature was normal. I discovered this when i opened the bonnet and did not find any liquid in the reservoir. The dealer charged me approx 10,000 for this.

lot of noise of the steering and the wheels when the car goes in potholes and speedbreakers, also the ground clearenc is very low. Even when only the driver is driving the car scratches most of the speed breakers in India. The car literally jumps on highways making it uncomfortable for rear passengers.

Recently i had a problem with the gearbox. While driving suddenly the rpm raised and i slowed down the car. since i was on the highway i culd not pull aside very soon so i drove a bit to know that unusually the rpm was higher for the speed. When i stopped aside i found that the REVERSE, 1st, 2nd & 4th gear of the Auto transmission were not getting engaged. I only had to drive to my destination in the 3rd gear. When i got back to Pune and showed to my dealer they said i had put the gears in wrong manner so the gear and shaft had broken. How silly they are that they dont know in Automatic transmission it is not the driver who controls gear shifting but is the machine itself. They say it will cost me 2,50,000/- (yes Two lakh fifty thousand) to get the gearbox replaced. This is a sign of poor quality of materials and bad workmanship of Hyundai. gears cannot break so easily and in such short life span. I have writtren  to Hyundai and hope they act wisely and prevent this in future.

Ride Quality & Handling: Bumpy ride, less control at high speeds while turning the car literally drifts. Steering becomes too light at high speeds. Ride for the driver is fantastic, it zooms with press of the accelerator pedal.

Final Words: After sales service of Hyundai should be better. Labour and parts are very expensive.

Exterior IS ALL GOOD

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) all very fantastic

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox cant say just driven 300 kms

Ride Quality & Handling  is all ok

Final Words problem was with dealer , the veichel is available , just a scarcity created by dealers to earn premium , we pay premimum 50000, for a automatic car , the issue is dealers are more greedy , they give a pacakage , we have to buy insurance and pay the rto tax to dealers , the insurance is expensive , rto is irrresponsible , do not respond , dealers demand advance payments for the car and deliver the car after 30 days and that to charge premium ,  wery unhappy with this vapi dealer (Divine Motors ) staff is very good , but policy is very bad , hyundai needs to take action against such dealers. Hope company does some thing , the car is good value for money and a realy good pacakage. 

Areas of improvement  NA

Exterior Nice Looks, Clean Edges

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Beautiful Asthetics and Ergonomics

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox 15.5 KMPL on Auto (Combined). Highway - 17.5KMPL @100 KMPH, City - 11 - 13 KMPL @ 40 KMPH

Ride Quality & Handling Wavy Handling - Needs Replacement of Rear Suspension Once in every 15,000 Kilometers. 2 Rear Suspension Costs about 2764.98 Rs.

Hyundai Service Never takes care of this Issue even when reported Several Times. Iam only left with the option of Chaging this Suspension Every 15,000 Kms.

Right nor my ODO is 44,650 kms.

Original Suspension - That Came with the Vehicle - 0 to 15,000

Fought with Hyundai Service to Change just the Springs at 15000 it proved to be Temporary and Ordered for Suspension when it reached 25000, It Reached me only by 44,000 Kms. So changed at 44,000 Kms and its good now.

Final Words Be Prepared to Spend 3,000 INR every 15,000 Kms for Suspension

Areas of improvement SUSPENSION - is Hyundai seeing this or Acting

Exterior Very good... Planned and built as per the indian roads.  

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) No complains here, has most features that a Rs. 20lakh+ has. And mostly all useful. 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Great for nornal city drives and upto 400km highway drives. AT is a good option for enjoy the car to the max. 

Ride Quality & Handling Excellent.

Final Words Go for it. Try to get good deals. They all give. 

Areas of improvement  Dealer ship and commitment by dealers. Service to be monitored. They end up only changing oil and cleaning the car. Exterior is very good looking. really a stunner out and out. everywhere i go people look at it admiringly. interior is also breath taking and gives out a very posh and fresh upmarket feeling. all the swithces are kept within easy reach of driver so that it doesn't distract him while driving. blue tooth is a very good feature and is need of the hour and is conviniently located on the steering wheel itself. back seat is also very comfortable and nice. A.c is very effective even when the outside temp was 48c. automatic gearbox is a blessing and once you drive it then you will not want to drive manual i am sure. it is so hassle free. however being automatic takes its toll on mileage. mine gives around 15k/m in highways and around 11k.m in city traffic. but i am not complaning as it is very easy to drive a automatic. ride quality is upto mark. however suspension is some what soft and it shows at high speeds. overall a sensible package that's why it is a hit and commands a waiting period of around 3 months.
