My "Silver Beauty Xcent" Ownership Review

[motorlover]

For the past few days, I am feeling the car going sideways while driving.Wonder what's the issue?

Hi blitz, Seat covers are looking good on your xcent.
Are these bucket fit or normal fir seat covers?
How much seat cover costed to you?



I am also searching for armrest for my xcent. But I don't think space between front seat can accumulate armrest and rear ac vent can be hindrance for installing armrest.

Hello gagan, harri on this forum has installed for his Grandi10 from ebay.
CAR Multi ARM Rest Console BOX AMP Storage Purpose IN Black Colour | eBay.
Since xcent is based on grandi10, wonder if we can install too.

Hi motorlover, I have also confirmed with local shops for armrest, it can be fitted on Xcent and costing only Rs. 800. I will take my car on Sunday for installing bucket fit seat cover costing me around 5k and armrest to the same shop.

I have also heard from one of my friend that bucket fit seat covers are installed by cutting some parts of the original seat. Can you help me on the same.

Hi Gagan

Yes. This happened to me as well. I had 2 issues:

1) Wheel alignment

2) Incorrect fitting of the steering during assembly of the car. I got this fixed from the showroom. He did the tuning while on TEST drive. Tightening the nuts on the drive so that the car remains straight on straight steering angle.

Actually the tire air pressure was low. After filling it , I didn't feel the problem but still took it to the service station.They also said it was fine.

Took my xcent on very high altitude ghats section fully loaded during the weekend.At no juncture I felt it underpowered or pickup. It was a joy all way through in spite of the heavy downpour.Traveled 500+ kms. Super Happy.

Hi Gagan,

Did you install front arm rest? How does it serve the purpose?

Post the pics also.

 

[gagan_1992]

Hi mail2gsyadav, I was busy last week, so couldn't take my car for installing seatcovers and armrest. Probably, will take it tomorrow for installing the same.

Hi,

can you please let me know, how is the actual Mileage on road ?

My Dealer in Vadodara is asking for INR 2500-3000 Extra for RTO (Bribe). this is after I pay full price for onroad Xcent. Does any one ever pays anything Extra to RTO ?? Please advice.

I have booked my Xcent S(O) diesel. Its my second Hyundai after i10. I am planning to get a reverse camera fixed, but a little sceptic if my warranty would be void for electrical components.
I am not finding any accessories for the car in open market, i guess cause its new. Also wondering what are costs of accessories been provided by dealer. Seat covers i was offered by dealer were around 9-10k and the reverse camera with mirror(screen) was around 9k which i felt are ridiculously higher than once available in market.

I was offered 3K for revers parking sensors and 4K for seat covers

Hello Everyone, I've recently bought Silver S variant. Roughly about a month ago. I had query for all in terms of mileage. I'm pretty disappointed as I get only around 6-7kms in city. Can anyone tell me if this is normal for the first month. Should I be expecting any progress in the coming months. Ive completed around 680 Kms and have filled insane amount of petrol in it.

6-7 is very low. You should be at least getting 11-12kms.

 

[furious_driver]

Yeah, 6-7 is real low. I am getting 12-13 in my city, and a good 17-18 in highways. Did you tried checking with tankful? Cause don't trust the fuel gauge.

 

[Charger91]

6/7 kmpl is really low. You can expected better figures post first service. At least 10-11 kmpl in city is acceptable. Btw, what was the On-Road price for S Variant?
