Hyundai santro LPG and people’s car

Print This Post Print This Post Email This Post Email This Post

Hyundai santro LPG:

Hyundai reiterated its stand and said that it will not phase out santro. Hyundai which recently rolled out its new hatchback ‘i10′ is expected to phase out the santro (which it launched in late 90s). Hyundai is currently selling around 12000 units of santro every month and recently it stopped offering of santro top end variant. Surprisinlgy, Hyundai on November 2nd said it targets to sell 5.35 lakh units of Santro (of this 50 per cent will be constituted by exports) next year. Hence it is clear that even after the introduction of another hatchback ‘i10′, it plans to sell more than 16000 santro’s every month. To achieve the ambitous target Hyundai will roll out launched LPG version of its Santro car 2008.

Hyundai people’s car:

Hyundai is developing a ‘B’ segment car which they plan to launch in india in 2009.  The car could be expected to be priced below Rs three lakh, Lheem Managing Director, Hyundai Motor India Ltd said after the launch of the i10 car.”But it is still in the concept stage. From concept stage to translating into a real car, it will take four years. The car will be for both the Indian and export markets,” he said adding that it would meet all international safety and emission norms.

    Hey,

    Well the LPG in the Santro will surely be a good thing but i think Hyundai plans to phase out the car.

    Cheers

    it’s not going to work …

    I have seen the Santro LPG car recently launched in Bangalore. It is good and value for money especially considering the running cost.

    Taking the test drive the pick up and comfort in driving is same. Yes you do feel a slight difference once you cross 85-90 kmph speed but thats ok considering the bangalore traffic.

    Better dont go 4 lpg n cng rather go 4 diesel.
    Coz running cost reduces n neednot be worried abt no:of km running n fuss.
    Coz CRDI is the tech which “reduces vibrations and gives better pickup”, this will happen when fuel combussion is more.As like petrol, diesel doest burn quickly, so it has less pickup.CRDI is the tech which minimises such things to happen.

    SWIFT,iNDICA VISTA,PALIO……..best mixture of power fuel economy.

    HYUNDAI cars are high on maintanence,and provide less space n comfort in there cars.The only big thing is they price it high for getting the psyhe of people who r brand concious.
    WHATS HYUNDAI BEFORE MARUTHI,N TATA.

    I got my RED SANTRO ECO GLS yesterday.

    One striking defect is the conspicuous absence of Gas tank lid lock whereas the petrol tank has a remote lock & opener.

    Its a must for the car esply that its a GAS and also when the car is kept parked in common areas of market theaters etc

    I own a WagonR Duo and find it to be a good car. The mileage is a little lesser on LPG when compared to petrol. If you’ve got a fully loaded car and running AC, there is a clear difference in performance between petrol and LPG. The big reason for me to go in for LPG is the low emission levels and the lower cost per KM.

    I don’t see any advantage of the Santro LPG over the Wagon R. The specifications for both cars on their websites don’t differ, except that Wagon R is much taller (70cm taller), which is better for tall guys like me :)

    check the comparison on this website -
    http://www.carwale.com/research/comparecars/carcomparison.aspx?car1=1022&car2=1435

    But I believe Wagon R has a more powerful engine, though I don’t have any evidence, except a few reviews on the net. The big plus for WagonR is the service support and the reasonable pricing for spares and maintenance.

    So that’s why I decided on Wagon R.
