After a exhaustic research for the best entry B segment car, I finally decided on a Hyundai Accent GLE in October'06. This was the only car which is is Technically represented in both categories -
A) Along with Esteem, Indigo, Fiat Petra, Ford Icon Flair &
B) Along with Baleno LXi, Aveo 1.4
and accordingly is priced very well. The car has almost all the aspects in between an excellent and poor worth considering before buying a 5 Lakh Plus car.
Be its Power, Acceleration, Torque/Power/Weight ratio, Reliability, After sales service, Spares & Maintenance, ownership experience, Steering & responce, comfort levels, space inside, Interiors(best), Looks from outside, ground clearance, colour range, fuel efficiency (though on lower side) thus making it a VFM.
My decision was made for GLE considering that now Hyundai will discountinue GLS, VIVA and CRDi for the variants of newly launched VERNA. Though GLE will continue.
However soon after booking and passing the booking amount the dealer informed that I will to wait for 2 month till December end. Reason was that Hyundai has stopped production of Accent GLE temporariliy to cater for VERNA's heavy bookings. I am not sure as the dealer is changing its statements every day.
Can anyone tell what is the true status of Accent GLE and whether it will really be really reproduced and how long I have to wait. Immediate Suggestions will be really helpful .
I don't want to wait for 2/3 months and in such a case I will have to cancel the booking and may be opt for Baleno LXi.
