Hyundai Xcent [2014-2017] User Reviews

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 classy interiors with loaded features , and no sound at all inside the cabin which i liked so much , also the boot space inside is quite sufficient.Although i feel the vehicle can be made just a bit more wider than what it is to give a bit extra comfort.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 Engine is awesome n superb for city driving , butter smooth gear shifts r awesome. I drove some 2300kms by now and i really love the engine and the sweet sound which it makes in 90s. The fuel economy what i am getting is about 14km with ac on always in city.

Ride Quality & Handling

The quality of ride is as good as any higher segment sedans and i really enjoyed inside the cabin. Only thing i feel is suspension can be a bit better than what it is and also the fog lights are quite dim although no issues with headlamps.

But one thing what i really miss is lack of automatic central locking in S1.2O MODEL. It should be the basic feature.

Overall i recommend to buy this car for people who want luxury and driving comfort on city roads.

 

Final Words

 

Areas of improvement  

 

 

BOOT SPACE , STYLISH INTERIORS , SMOOTH RIDING , PICK UP OF THE CARAIR BAGS ONLY IN TOP VARIANT , FOG LIGHTS QUITE DIM, SUSPENSION , AUTO CENTRAL LOCK NOT IN ALL

Exterior

I have bought black model, it looks shining. The front and side looks good

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

Xcent has nice interior and spacing , in build music system performs well. Reverse parking sensor doesn't seems working properly it will alerts even if there no object. I bought S.12, even in that bluetooth connection and phone call feature are there. Xcent A/C is very good and makes the car cabin a very comfortable. Extra foot space gives comfort for long drive 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

I am bit worried about performance, engine is not powerful. There is a issue on changing geer into second, that is not smooth. Xcent gives 13~14kmpl economy on driving , and hyundai told it  ~19. 

Ride Quality & Handling

Riding quality is good in city.  ABS braking is very smooth .The ride quality of the car is not very absorbent and bad patches of road do filter in, the suspension is a bit on the stiffer side, otherwise its pretty comfortable

Final Words

Xcent is good sedan for small family

Final Words

 Car is good, but I have been facing central lock issue, my car get unlocked automatically when I kept it locked , I am facing this issue since I have perchased the car, tough this issue is intermitent and not reproducible all the time , I have been following up with hyundai costumer care, delares, service center. I have visited service center many times but thier technical engineer are not able to find the cause. I have taken vedio and shown to them but they want to reproduce in front of them (unfortunitely issue is intermittent hence could not reproduce when I visited thier site.

I really concerned about this issue.

Areas of improvement  

 Hyundai has to really improve after sell service, at this moment I am really missing mariti service.

I am feeling helpless as I have to live with thsi problem in my new car , there is no one concenred about customer's problem once car is sold.

 

Comfort driving pleasure,facing central lock issue in my new Xcent , it get automatically unlocked

Exterior Good.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Everything is ok.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox In 170 liter 2712km driven in hectic pune's traffic (15.9km/L) and never run my car without Ac and most of the time  kept nob of ac 2nd position . I am new driver I learn driving on this car. so its great fue economy in its class if you are new driver. if I drive on the higway it will definately give more than 19km/L. Excelent braking system. Sudden stop whenever you need to stop.

Ride Quality & Handling Very good ride quality and easy handling in city. it is vibrating when speed goes above 95  why company should check.

Final Words GOOD CAR IN THE SEGMENT BETTER THAN ZEST AND SWIFT AND EVEN DESIRE

Areas of improvement Its body steel  material used is not siff. so thicker gauge should be used to resist the impact of even a hand or knee. very thin steel masterial is used. COLOR COATING IS POOR.

i had drove in hectic pune's traffic got 15.2 km/h (2700km). good fuel economynot bad interiors , spacious one in its class

Exterior 3.5/ 5  Great styling and fudic design, Keeps the car well noticed on the crowded roads.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) 4/ 5  Hyundai  is known for giving more then asked for when it comes to feature packed interiors. Xcent is not less on any asspect when it comes to this Category. 

Engine Perform ance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox 3/5 Gear box is very nice and comfortable. Its easy to shift gears and not much of a effort. Fuel economy is something which is just about average, as company claims its not so good.

Final Words  There are few basic needs to call a Car "CAR" and brakes come in top few of that, which I guess hyundai is not acknoloding with this range of car. It just kiddish to say ur customer that xcent is design to have such sharp brakes and its a new technology. I am speechless when it comes to that. Secondly I think the Trip meter rests itself on its own once in a while which is also just absurd.

Areas of improvement Brakes for sure. My car can give me worst millage if it comes to it but a faulty brakes is just meaningless.

Premium design and stylingBrakes are not Luxury they are necessity.

Exterior

 Front look and side look are quite good whereas the rear look is average with comparatively small tail lamps. Lack of slim look because of more height. 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 It is a feature packed car. Nice dash board with easy access of audio control and phone control. Liked the 1Gb storage feature. Comfortable driving with good leg space. Rear seat space is also very good. Auto door lock is not there. 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 I feel the power / pickup is little less and the engine is also little noisy. I feel the engine noise is due to my driving style as I am a learner. Gearbox is smooth. Fuel economy is average.

Ride Quality & Handling

 Feel very comfortable driving in the city. Very good visibilty, comfortable seat. Suspension is good but not great. 

Final Words

 Overall a nice car in this segment. Enjoying the driving everyday. 

Areas of improvement  

 Not much in interior features. Could be better exterior look / fluidic design concept. 

 

Features, good interior, boot space, comfortable seatsPickup, less width

I have purchased new hyundai Xcent but is continuously making rounds of company workshop on account of major manufacturing defects starting from breaks which are too hard and bring car to dead stop even by small touch making it very dangerous to drive on road.already hit 4 times from back.despite accepting fault the company is not able to rectify despite calling 4 times in the workshop.AC is another area weather control is not at all effective and you feel lot uncomfortable sitting on the back.slightly better after major repair by company but still not at all satisfactory.Regarding seat belt at least 3 times repaired already.

Exterior Good.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Good.

Bought it in 2017 at 13000 km driven. Now it is at 30000 km. Excellent car,in comfor performance fuel economy (city 17 kmpl highway 19-20 kmpl). Best for all age group. Nice features,easy to use. Top speed drived almost 140 km per hour. Solid build quality, once hit by honda but nothing happen at the bumper in fact the front of honda was damaged. So thubs up to Hyundai.
