I purchase Eon six months back.It is good looking car.It has same engine that of Santro one piston removed.I have driven alto, Alto800, indica vista, beat, alto k10 .But I love to drive eon in city. It returns average of 15 km in city like Andheri with Ac. On highway it Returned me average of 19+ km with Ac 100%. Those who are confused go for EON instead of alto 800 as Space is more, looks good.It has Gear shift indicator for new learner driver. In city with traffic no car will return u this much high mileage. Till now I have not received any problems. I purchased it from sharayu Hyundai.First service was done at same place, they are the best service provider.
How to improve mileage:
1)For magna+ and sports tyre size is R13
Recommended air pressure is:33psi(1 to 2 passenger) 36psi(full load)
Tyre air pressure plays key role in getting mileage every month air pressure decrease by 2 psi .So every month air pressure check is required .
Normally Indian people don’t check Tyre air pressure by gauge they do it by eyes or by kicking Tyre with leg.
2)Follow the gear shift indicator in eon for few days your average will definitely improve
Follow both steps to get average.And ENJOY
Fuel Filling habit: Fill the fuel early in morning or during night time as petrol gets easily vaporized at high temperature and save money and enjoy.
Note:Normally people don’t follow this steps and complain of less average if ARAI has certified car 21+ km It must return you 19+ with AC on highway.If you don’t get average that’s your driving fault.
For those who are concern about mileage:
you must go for Era or D-lite version as tyre are R12 145 similar to Alto, Wagon R and Estilo Tyre. Magna and sports version have R13 155 .Tyre width counts a lot in mileage larger the width lower the mileage but better during turning and driving safety.
Care To Be Taken:If your car is brand new for first 1000 km drive it below 80 kmph So that higher RPM is no reached. Don’t do plastic lamination matting as it is not water proof if water enter by mistake it cannot be removed and cause rusting of floor.
Car Stability:
Max speed at which I have driven this car is 145km/hr with 5 people on board the car is extremely stable even at this speed same feeling like Verna or SX4.
