Car Profiles - Hyundai Eon

HYUNDAI EON

It was destined to replace the i10 back then but it did not went through. One of the entry level cars without looking very basic inside which comes with lots of headroom (Indians are tall people). The 0.8 engine is fuel friendly and it can pull decently.

The Good: Very fuel friendly
The Bad: No rear wiper

Price Range: P438,000-P508,000
Our Rating: ***
