HYUNDAI EON MAGNA+ REVIEW AFTER 3 MONTHS, 3000KMS

Exterior - GREAT EXTERIOR DESIGN. LOOKING MODERN EVEN THOUGH DESIGNED 5 YEARS BACK. COMPACT DIMENSIONS ARE BOON IN CITY.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)- FULL MARKS TO INTERIOR! SUPERB QUALITY WITH GREAT LOOKING DASHBOAD. ENOUGH HOLDERS TO KEEP THINGS IN PLACE.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

NOTHING TO WRITE ABOUT. ENGINE IS STRICTLY RESTRICTED TO CITY USE ONLY. ANYTHING BEYOND 80KMPH IS STRAIN ON ENGINE. ENGINE KNOCKING AND JERKINESS IS TOO MUCH. IT IS BOTHERING. ENGINE INSULATION IS BELOW AVG. GEARS ARE SMOOTH TO OPERATE AND CLUTCH IS ALSO FEATHER LIGHT.

 

Ride Quality & Handling

VERY GOOD RIDE QUALITY EVEN ON UNEVEN ROAD SURFACES. SUSPENSIONS TEND TO WORK WITH THUD NOISE BUT ACCETABLE LEVELS OF COMFORT. 

HANDLING IS GOOD TOO. EVEN ABOVE 90+KMPH CAR REMAINS STABLE. KAPPA 1.2 ENGINE IN THIS CAR WOULD CREAT WONDERS.

 

Final Words

NOT A GREAT CAR IF U ALWAYS TRAVEL WITH FAMILY AS ENGINE IS A WEAK LINK. INTERIORS AND SEATING COMFORT AND SPACE IS ADQUATE. EXTERIOR DIMENSIONS ARE COMPACT SO CAR IS BOON TO DRIVE IN CITY.

A STICKLY CITY RUNNABOUT CAR. DONT GO FOR IT IF U TRAVEL MORE ON HIGHWAYS. 

Areas of improvement  

ENGINE NOISE, JERKYNESS AND KNOCKING NEED TO IMPROVE ON IMMEDIATE BASIS.

FUEL EFFICIENCY IS BELOW AVG FOR THIS SMALL CAPACITY ENGINE.
