Hyundai Verna Fluidic Black SX VTVT - Experience!

[nickandre]

one of those vernas will be mine but sold privately. If their offering 4-5 lacs id chuck plans of selling it of and open my themed amusement ride "ROLLER COASTERUIDIC" charge 100 bucks per seat and take the car at 100 over a severely potholed road. If they say thats not fast ill prove them by showing the fe. And then ill preserve that car in my garage as a vintage and show my kids and grandkids "Here lies the car that fooled thou grandpa"

Well said nick!

my brakes are making noises now for the first 5 km those grinding noises i wasn't getting them before they cleant and sanded the pads, i visually checked the pads their mine as they have the same thickness. While the ac is making hissing noises for a few seconds on compressor startup. its like the gas in the evaporator is over and just getting filled in.

 

[bobazooka]

Took the car out for a short drive after 4 days and guess what it never tries to surprise me! Its getting even better!

 

[nickandre]

bazooka do you idle after start up? or just drive away? cause if you do idle it will drink petrol to warm up faster. Lets try those cable ties on the fuel hose to limit the fuel supply and see the fe (sarcasm)

 

[bobazooka]

Nope i dont idle, coz i know this guzzler will not sip so its start and drive away.

Yeah rite now's the time for innovative ideas.

Hyundai trying to match audi ,BMW on mileage front

 

[nickandre]

audi and bmw have higher cc engines with 6 cylinders and or turbo charged so for them their fe seems proper. Hyundai is a 1.6 at least hyundai could've claimed their figures right? if they had to put 8-9 city i don't think anyone of us would have got so worked up on the mileage we receive then.
the vernas engine cannot support ethanol at all online honda city where it can tolerate 10%

 

[allhyundaicars]

7.6 that's what should i say. and i agree with nick this is a plain 1.6 and still drinking like beemers

guys owning beemer doesn't mind the fe but we do. at this rate we'd spend half the car's price in 2-3 years

 

[vaibhav]

Its better to buy sunny and sell verna

 

[nickandre]

I'm hoping passat comes out in the tfsi in a years time if the pricing is high ill settle for a4 1.8 petrol then. lets see hope the verna doesn't bankrupt me before that.

 

[bobazooka]

Thts the problem its a plain 1.6 pot, infact this car cannot handle a city FE. Was reading Car India long term ownership of the SX(O) VTVT and the have pegged the city average at 9.2 kmpl. The only way is to get high octane fuel and then run on syth!

guys FE came down..being a CRDI its giving me 14 odd in city..if it doesn't get better, i know dads gonna kill me..its the same mileage i guess Honda city would have given at lot less price with I-vtec engine..

 

[allhyundaicars]

many diesel owners are reporting the same what have hyundai done. messed up the fe. now they can't say its your driving style

done some 340 kms on trip meter and range shows some 60 kms. so 380 kms for 35 or 43 liters i don't know.

i think the reserve is for 7 liters and not just 2. can't be 2. that's why only 35 liters went in after 1 petrol bar remained. will continue to drive till the bar blinks.

I am getting 10.6L for my 850kms old verna crdi, is it a fair deal..??
well i am not in a mood to sell it off, but still..!!
On Road delhi is 11.20L plus 60k black for early delivery, so total is 11.80L...i dint had to pay that black, so for me it was 11.2 only..
