2007 Hyundai Getz Edition review from Croatia
"Very good car for the money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing in the first year and 45.000 km.
General comments?
Good handling, swift and reliable small car.
Have enough inner space for its size, but a little bit short on space in the front seats for taller persons.
1.4 engine is OK for size of this car, but for a dynamic ride you have to push over 3.000rpm.
My car has an LPG conversion because I do about 50.000 km per year.
For town driving it is excellent, and for highway, and longer trips it is enough comfortable, but the engine is little bit too noisy (At 140km/h it revs 4.000), and this affects fuel consumption.
On average, it takes 8.5 liters of LPG per 100km, and on the highway 9-10 liters/ 100km.
Overall I could recommend this car, and I plan to keep mine for 5 years, and put some serious mileage on it.
It seems Hyundai is making good and very reliable cars. If they improve fuel consumption for their gasoline engines, they will become serious runners for the top market position.
