Hyundai India launched the stupendously awaited small car-Hyundai EON in India on October 13th, 2011. Hyundai EON is the cheapest car from the Korean car manufacturer with its base variant priced very affordably at Rs 2.69 lakh, while the top end variant costing Rs 3.71 lakh to one’s pocket. However, Hyundai EON was launched only in petrol variant and the fuel is no longer the fuel for masses. Therefore Hyundai India is mulling to introduce an LPG variant of the car. The Hyundai EON LPG was spotted near Chennai undergoing the tests and speculations point towards a launch in mid-2012. Hyundai Motors will equip the small car EON with LPG kits with the compatibility to switch between the petrol and the LPG option. Since diesel technology is expensive, LPG is the best way to keep the price of Hyundai EON stable and low. Even maintenance of the hatchback will become easier for customers who will also get better fuel efficiency and a suitable option alongside Maruti Alto which already offers a LPG variant.
The users’ comments about Hyundai EON are mixed. Some say it has got more space than Maruti Alto, mileage, comfort and handling is good. But others say that there is a noise and vibration in the engine at higher speeds. Also be sure that you know it’s a 3-cylinder engine, a user also has given a review that even on a just 15⁰ high road, the car lost its power and he was forced to run the car on the lower gear. Even the plastic quality inside the car is low .
Finally, it’s you who has to decide.. so just take test drive and find yourself what’s in it..!!
Excellent reviews.Hyundai EON is a direct competitor of traditional small cars like Maruti 800 and Alto.It looks compact,urban and powerful but I am not confirmed about What is Boot Space of Hyundai EON?
