@bensam56 , verna looks really good in white! but some how I feel that very dark tints take away the rich look of the car. Is there in option to change the door handles to chrome ?

I'm looking for the door handle chrome and I missed that. I asked the dealer but no luck. I think so far no exclusive accessories is available for this new verna. If anyone knows where the door handle chrome is available kindly let me know guys! [cheers]

Re: Hyundai Verna Fluidic SX (O) Experience

you may find it after market.
or maybe after a few months.

ive added window chrome garnish will add pictures tomorrow
taken her for a drive to the city and it felt great very easy to maneuver and park in tight spots. The ac is very good and efficient.

so whats my take after a week of owning it?
Its got killer looks every where people keep checking her out.
The interiors make you feel comfortable and in an expensive car.
The ac is very powerful i guess its a 0.75 tonne rated ac (comparing the suction gas pipe)
The car has lots and lots of pickup very good acceleration. Brakes are good to
very good features right from the steering controls to the keyless entry to reversing camera and electronic foldable mirrors
steering is very light very good for city driving and highways its good to no issues just needs getting used
nvh is very good can barely hear engine noises below 2.5k rpms and the shift indicator is good for newbie drivers
suspensions are a treat no bumps get into the cabin
seats are very comfortable especially the rears with lots of leg room the window line maintains your privacy but never made me feel claustrophobic
gears are smooth along with the clutch

what i did not like
The ac when in auto mode will automatically go into fresh air intake on its own.
The suspensions make a thad noise when going into very very bad potholes
The ovrms do not open and close automatically have to use the switch
seat belt sensor is only for driver and wont chime if you drive of without wearing it. it only chimes when you start the car and remove the belt with the engine on for a few seconds(i dont know if its only in my car or if theres a way to activate it)
The passenger airbag has no option of disabling it(i hope there is a sensor)
Lots of dashboard reflection during sunny days.
Keyless keep key in your pocket is true if the driver wont step out of the car with the engine on and key in his pocket or else it will just buzz for a while say few seconds and stop but wont switch the engine of :stupid:
The faux wood is scratch prone

my engines guzzling fuel like anything im still on my first tank and 200kms done and fuel indicator shows 2 bars of fuel and distance to empty as 100kms
instantaneous fe shows between 6-8 kmpl and this is 90% highway driving with 100% ac and quickly shifting to 5th no over revving and clutch ridding same average is got by dad me and my driver each time. ill change my bunker and check the average again. If this continues ill try to hypnotize it to run on water.[lol]

more feedback after a long drive to nashik this sunday

Re: Hyundai Verna Fluidic SX (O) Experience

@ nick : How much did ur entire ICE set-up cost u? how would u rate the improvement in sound? better than infinity/JBL? Kicker is good? And yes were u able to find out the size(type) of speakers that will be compatible with the 4 OEM speakers slot ? Just to remove the OEM speakers and shove in the new ones, i mean.
[thumbsup] i'm a little sleepy now. will be fresh and go through the videos u uploaded.

Re: Hyundai Verna Fluidic SX (O) Experience

Its really amazing for me! Actually I had planned to check the max mileage what my beauty can give. So I went @ 80 - 90 Kmph for a long distance starting from my home. Finally I calculated the mileage manually and its giving 25.7 - 26.2 KM/lt and I checked the mileage in DIS shows 26.6 and the result is almost same which I calculated. Check the image and awesome [:D]

Re: Hyundai Verna Fluidic SX (O) Experience

first tank full got over today at 327 kms which is 7.6kmpl same as what the mid showed. filled in speed97 42 litres for rs3570 got some increase in pickup engine mid shows fe as 15kmpl and distance to empty as 600 kms. I guess that reliance fuel i put in my first tank was bad.

vikram i added 6.5inch speakers the infinty ones you have choosen will fit perfectly and yes theres a vast change in sq its more solid and hitting good mids and hi's and fairly good bass i just changed the rear speakers as i was kind of liking the front speakers costed me around rs24000 and i find the kicker amplifier very good was recommended by a few dealers if i wanted sound quality

and heres the window chrome garnish i added

+100 to chrome garnish. it looks beautiful.
how much did it cost?

@bensam
if it's giving such a superb mileage , then verna is worth buying for me.
