Hyundai Eon Discontinued
Its the end of Hyundai Eon from January 2019 in India as the car is officially discontinued
Eon helped HMIL post impressive sales numbers as the car was featured in Top 10 Selling Cars of India with last featured in December 2016, February 2016 and December 2015. But lack of updates led its sales falling to low.
So, finally after around 7.5 years since Eon is in production, with the fact of no major facelift / no new generation launched by Hyundai except minor reshuffling of features and post Hyundai Santro launch in October 2018 - it was the last laugh for Eon as there was mere handful of units dispatched in November, December where customer demand of specific color / variant was it
Now - Hyundai has taken off all discount schemes off on Eon from January 2019 and previous left over stock of MY 2018 is been off on shelves with a Flat Rs 50000 cash discount. Needless to mention - any dealer having old stock may offer even higher to dispose off
Below is the Internal communication sheet from Hyundai to there Dealerships where the name of Eon is Removed
So - Santro turns out to be the Entry Segment Car from Hyundai India. There are no discounts as of now on New Santro Car,
