The Hyundai Eon is the Korean carmaker’s entry-level offering in the Indian market. It competes against established rivals such as Maruti Suzuki’s Alto 800 and Alto K10 and the Renault Kwid, among others. The little hatchback boasts of a well built cabin and frugal 800cc and 1.0-litre petrol engine options. The Eon returns an ARAI-claimed mileage of 21.1kmpl and 20.3kmpl with the 0.8-litre and 1.0-litre engines, respectively. With a price tag that ranges between Rs 3.33 lakh (800cc D Lite variant) to Rs 4.67 lakh (1.0-litre Magna Plus Optional variant), the Eon comes across as a worthy alternative to Maruti Suzuki bread and butter models, the Alto. It’s diminutive size should prove to be an advantage in our crowded cities as well.
