    PURCHASE:
    New

    DRIVING:
    Few thousand kilometers
    Buying experience: I wanted to have Mysore Regestration number. When enquired about the price, We had different options in Mysore and Bangalore. Advaith Hyundai in Mysore had a price far bigger than showrooms in Bangalore. They cheated us of Rs.2500/- as booking charges. Never told us about the same before but showed us the condition written somewhere in a corner (laterally hidden). Anyhow, buying our vehicle at Blue Hyundai in Kengeri was a good experience even after the loss at Advaith. In 2012 November, we got Eon Era+ At 3.75 lakhs on road with music system and keyless entry.
    Riding experience: The only disadvantage is the pickup. I ride Eon every week to and fro Mysore and Bangalore. I ride it at 80 to 90 kmph and quite comfortably overtake bigger vehicles. Many of my friends say it looks like a bigger car.
    Details about looks, performance etc: Looks of the car is truly fluidic. Amazing part of my car is that, though it's over 6 years now, the battery is still going good. The GOODYEAR tyres given with the new vehicle were very bad. Now I am using JK tyres. And it is really good when it comes to road trip. In the 1st 3 years, the vehicle has run just 8000 kms. In next 3 years 20000 kms. And in last 3 years, it has run 60000 kms. And am still loving it. My next car would be Nexon if not, at least KUV100. But KUV100 has one big drawback of its length. Next is it's small tyres and lesser GC. Some people complained with its mileage. Otherwise KUV100 is an excellent vehicle for people like me who love ROUGH and TOUGH rides!
    Servicing and maintenance: I strongly advice Hyundai customers to never give the vehicle for servicing at Hyundai Showrooms. It is very expensive. I gave my Eon for servicing at Advaith Hyundai for almost 5 years. They didn't do good job at all. Either the washing was very bad or repairing the belt near the engine that is noisy was never resolved. Once I had to change the fuel pipe that runs below the car from tank to engine. The pipe price was somewhere near Rs.300 But the bill amount was Rs.1700 That was very funny. Labour and taxes were the only 2 things added to the price of the pipe. But the bill was Rs.1700. Then onwards, I am giving my vehicle for service outside with a reputed garage. Now the amount is Rs.1800 that includes Engine oil, air and oil filter. Car wash interior and exterior and wheel balancing and alignments. The same in Advaith Hyundai used to cost Rs.5000 and above.
    Pros and Cons: Pros 1. Value for money 2. Good mileage 3. Good speed and smooth drive in 5th gear 4. Excellent space for luggage 5. Very low maintenance Cons 1. Body build is very poor 2. GC is low 3. Gear nob vibrates like Hell when in 1st and 2nd gears. 4. Steering wheel is tight (not as smooth as i20) 5. Gear seat cannot accommodate 3 people.
