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!!!

Hope the Points mentioned above are clear to all. However I would like to give some clarity on some of the points mentioned above.

· Engine Capacity – Higher the engine capacity of cylinder higher the output power

· Compression ration and Power to weight ratio – more or less similar. Both specify the pulling power of the cars.

· Tyres: Nano has smaller tyres in the front which assures good turning radius and swifter driving in city traffic conditions. Also the broader the rear tyres ensure stability at high speeds. M800 has same set of tyres in front and back which would cause over steering very easily.

Conclusion: The points portrayed speak only about the points in which Nano beats M800; it doesn’t means that Nano is better than M800 in all means. In short, both are best in their own way.

Cheers

SANTRO ecoLPG - Bifuel Marvel

Hi all,

It's been a long break i posted blogs and am very happy to see you all in the new mood. Hope! you might think why i am posting about Santro which was more than 10 years old and also there were news spreading that the Santro is soon going to be stopped.

Sorry! my heart refuses to believe that Hyundai will stop this record breaker in India (Hyundai - if you are planning to stop this car. Pls! Pls! throw away your thought) Since this car is the one which inspires not only the older but also the younger minds, due to its lowest maintenance cost and better mileage.

With all the existing features, the car is also fitted with LPG (older news though), I came to know this just a month back (too late!) when i was trying to find a better car for my friend.

On the day, when i saw the car it disturbed me and it was awe inspiring (truly better than i10).

These are all my uttering until i came to know about the all new 2011 Santro.

Ooooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhh! Hurrah!!!

oops! sorry! am sure that any santro fan will shout like this on hearing the news (irrespective of age).

Well what's going to be new in the 2011 Santro?

Well, it's an all new santro and hence it is also going to have it's all new outlooks. Hey! am not kidding! Hyundai has changed the looks completely.

The car will be more like a Jr. i10, but we'll surely miss the family car's homely look! as well as Gorgeous front face! However the revved up engine and the similar mileage will relax our hearts.

It seems the new car would carry same 1.1 Litre engine with peak output power of 65bhp @5500rpm (previously 63bhp@5500rpm) and max. torque of 105nm@3500rpm (97.8nm@ 3000rpm) and new improved speed of (145Kmph).

Boss! this is not just a decent figure. It's awesome from a 1.1L petrol engine. considering its rivalry Maruti Zen Estilo provides output power of 65bhp@5200rpm(awesome!) but poor torque of 84nm@3500rpm(v.poor!), which makes it fuel efficiency bit lesser than the Santro but not in the speed (150Kmph).

Even its elder sibling i10 having 1.2L engine provides peak output power of 80bhp@5200rpm and torque of 114nm@4000rpm.

Also there is no big change in the price just 15K-20K higher. Obviously at reasonable price again).

Let's welcome the new car! However don't miss the old one's if you are planning to buy the current santro you'll be the luckiest. So don't go for second thought else you'll miss the best santro ever, since a not sure 100% about the new car that is yet to be launched.

Cheers!!!
