Hyundai will take the wraps of the i20 face lift at the upcoming Geneva Motor Show in March 2012.

Hyundai's next-generation Santa Fe SUV have draped in the brand's sharpened new styling language.

Revealing one-half of the new SUV's face (which we've duplicated for your viewing pleasure) and a proper look at the rear end, the shots show that the 2013 Santa Fe will take on an "upsized ix35" look.

The Santa Fe name could also be replaced in world wide with an ix45 badge, although the survival of the Accent and Elantra names leaves the door open for the big wagon's existing name to continue.

Technical details for the new model remain a secret for now, although we can likely expect the new Santa Fe to continue with the 145kW 2.2 litre R-Series diesel that features in the current model.

We could also see the Genesis Coupe's 205kW/372Nm 2.0 litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine. If so, this would sit as rival for Ford's EcoBoost-powered Explorer.

The 2013 Santa Fe is rumoured to be heading for a New York Auto Show debut in April, although Hyundai has yet to confirm plans on that front.

HYUNDAI IS GOING TO GIVE FACELIFT TO i20

  HYUNDAI IS GOING TO GIVE FACELIFT TO i20

The i20 was launched in 2008.

Hyundai is planning a cosmetic treatment on the i20 to infuse the new Fluidic design philosophy.

The front fascia of the new i20 is unveiled ( although not completely ). 

As expected, the new Fluidic design is quite evident on the front of the i20. The new headlamps are now swooping in the side profile of the car. There is also a heavy usage of chrome garnish to make it look upmarket.

Expect to see the new i20 hitting the Indian roads by the festival season.

Hyundai Eon - Perfect small car

Hyundai Eon is the latest arrival in the small car (A) segment of Indian Car Market. As of today (16-Dec-2011) Eon is the smallest car launched by Hyundai for the Indian Market. So I chose it to be the best car to start my review activity again!

First point - With meagre capacity greater than M800 or Alto - The car was perfectly placed with an extra ordinary power and mileage in the segment.

Well! coming to power the car churns out an amzing 55Bhp of output power @ 5500rpm, which would allow us to reach 100Kph much earlier than any of the cars in the segment. Even when the engine churns out abnormal power the engine remains conservative. With an average mileage of 19Kmpl astonishes the consumers of this segment. The runner-up model in this segment even gives out 15kmpl on an average.

The price of the model is also convincing - much equivalent to the other competitors and to be honest with the power-mileage ratio the price is very reasonable ranging from 3.5lacs to 4.5lacs,point to be noted that Alto 800cc version ranges from 2.75Lacs to 3.5

The Ergonomics of the car also ensures the stability even at higher speeds. Styling of the car is also excellent combination to its specifications.

Conclusion:
Hyundai Eon is the perfect blend of Style, Ergonomics and power assuring the best buy for the money.

Cheers!!!
