Overview
The Hyundai Eon 2015 is a notable entry-level hatchback in the used car market. Imported mainly through authorised agents such as Hyundai Lanka as brand-new units, it offers a stylish and modern alternative to other budget city cars. The Eon introduced the "Fluidic Sculpture" design philosophy to the entry-level segment, giving a more premium appearance than its direct competitors. Powered by the 0.8L iRDE 3-cylinder engine, the Eon emphasises maximum efficiency and ease of driving for urban environments. It targets first-time car buyers, students, and small families who prioritise low running costs and manoeuvrability over long-distance performance.

Owners note that the Hyundai Eon 2015 is a nimble city car. Feedback suggests that the steering is light and responsive, making it ideal for navigating traffic in urban areas. Within city limits, the engine feels lively enough for quick bursts. However, on motorways, drivers say the car feels light and can be affected by crosswinds or passing heavy vehicles. The vibration from the gear lever is a common observation, highlighting the budget-friendly nature of the powertrain.
