Final Words- 1. Horrible braking....I brought this car before 1 month..now 1500 Km is over..But i am not satisfied about braking system of my Xcent..its very horrible and uncomfort for passengers..when I  touch the break pedal the car was stopped suddenly.This braking system is not good for city driving. I went to the dealer but they are telling this is the new system of hyundai xcent and grand I10....I hope hyundai will resolve this isuue..

2. A/C gas leaked after 1300 km. Ac gas leaked from my car after done my 1st service.

3. Spare shotage. after found Ac gas leak.. The mechanic telling spare parts is not available..it will take 3 or for days to repair my car. mudflap,& body cover are necessery  need full things for new cars.but this items also not available.

Areas of improvement  Braking

Exterior It exterior look is simple and nice 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) It's interior space & comforts are unparallel in this segment. It has lots of features with advanced technology. It is the first car in the price bracket, which provide the rear AC vent. It's cool glove is fantastic for a long drive in summer. It provides good leg space for back riders and lots of space for luggage.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The inner sealing is very good and makes the noise- free journey. It gives ~ 15km/l in city and 18km/l in the highway. The gear shift is very smooth.

Ride Quality & Handling It provides very comfortable ride and easy handling.

Final Words Those it is my first car which I have purchased in November 2014 and have > 3000km riding/ driving, its give me full satisfaction in all areas. So it is simple a nice family sedan.

Areas of improvement Posterior look and breaking system.

Purchased 2 months back. In parking condition and am sitting inside heard a sound and found back windshield cracked and crumbled without any reason. When taken to Lakshmi Hyundai, Hyderabad..they started forcibly convincing me that something fell on it and this cant happen on its own hence forced me to go for insurance claim for a manufacturing defect. I am shocked and horrified with the safety and security features and the HYUNDAI SERVICE STANDARDS. Would suggest to check all glasses even the joints before finally taking hand over because after that no responsibility will be accepted by the company even within warranty...hence also suggest not to go for extended warranty as these are false promises to increase revenue. Shifted to Hyundai from Maruti and now realising some mistakes: Shifting itself; Paid full amount( finance option) hence cant change immediately; purchasing a new model with no/few feedback in market- this risk can be taken with Honda or Maruti.

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.
