    Just driving  this car for past 20 Days.. The Build quality as it looks on a test drive is very good but after 600 Kms driving in a City like Coimbatore itself is Giving Lot of Rattling sound inside the car. It sounds like i have got a 5 Year old rough used car.

    Fascinated by the Gizmos on seeing on the ADs in Internet Booked the car to get it first, But all in Vain, The car is Photogenic But without the Real Stuff of a car. I was using Hyundai Accent CRDI Before and that car was Great. Still having it  after 1,60,000 Kms, Accent Feels and Handles the road in a nice manner but this New Verna feels as if we are in an Auto Rickshaw.

    Beware of Advertised Reviews Done by Media Partners of Hyundai. Also A good example will be the release of Detailed Specs. Why is Hyundai New Verna's GROUND CLEARANCE not been stated in any web site / Auto Magazines. Just because the Ground Clearance is Very Low  May be 155 mm and Hits Most of  the Speed Breakers in Coimbatore. LOW Ground Clearance is Clear when you Drive in NH 209. Cannot Get the car on sides as it Hits the ground at almost all places. ALL MEDIA REVIEW has concealed the Ground Clearance Thing.. Good Job Hyundai.

    And then Six Speed Gear Box. It just wants us to Move the Gears Keeping the Left hand Busy Thats all Abt it. Just a piece of Junk. At about 500 Kms driving itself, Car sounds the Grear Slip Sound Frequently and Missing a Gear is very common, You will feel as if you have Put the Gear in Proper position and then when you give acc it will Give the "KRRRRRRRRRRRRR" Sound and let us know that the Gear is not properly in place...

    Yeah The engine - Turbo Lag is everywhere, Gives out Black Smoke a lot if you Push it hard... I thought this car will replace my Old Hyundai accent CRDI, But this one, "AS I HAVE GOT IT", may  replace my Dad's Old Maruthi Alto.

    The Mileage for Diesel is good at 18 to 19 Kmpl in Mixed Driving. Better than Hyndai accent CRDI. When Verna reaches speeds of above 80 Kmph on Highways like NH 209, The car dances on road like a Drunk man, It Wobbles, Shakes, and Drives as if i am driving a Jet Ski / Small Boat on water. Even though there is enough Grip it feels as if you are floating. This makes us to reduce the speed to 70. The same thing happens in 4 Tracks(Modern NHS) where the speed above 100 Proves to be Very difficult as the Floating Effect spoils the confidence to go speeds.

    yeah and i forgot, I have complained this to hyundai, They Simply told, We are producing Lot of cars  and see sir we have lot of bookings and so there can be ""some faults in some cars"" which cannot be 100% perfect "" they also added " YOU ARE NOT OWNING A BENZ this is Hyundai" I am not looking for a BENZ quality but at least Some thing worth for the 12,00,000 Hard Earned Rupees. Let me Say this Clearly " The Car Does not Worth the Price, It just has bells and Whistles, Dont get Taken away by them".
