Is your Car A/C provide you the necessary cooling? Or Is there any problem on how to maintain it?

We all want the ultimate cooling out of our vents; especially when it comes to surviving the hot concrete jungle. When the A/C system kicks in on those hot, sweaty days, that’s something we all relish. But, believe it or not, there’s no ice machine inside (but at one time ice was used to cool people’s rides down. In fact, the cold air generated by your A/C system is actually hot air with hot gases removed during a multi-step process.

A car air conditioner’s components include the compressor, evaporator, hoses and belts, all of which are prone to wear and tear.

These will need replacement if required to keep the air conditioner running smoothly. Like Hyundai , many other car brands have started providing specific information on how to maintain the car’s air conditioning system in their owner's manual.

Car CC: A deciding factor before you buy one!

Car CC: A deciding factor before you buy one!

What does it exactly mean when we say that Hyundai Grand i10 has a 1200cc engine? How does it matter? Why do people keep referring to cc (cubic centimeters) while looking for good vehicles? Does more CC means more consumption? Does it have more impact in engine power? Let’s unfold all the questions one by one..........

Since ‘cc’ stands for cubic centimeters, everyone regards it to be the volume of cylinder. But the fact is it is the Displacement volume of a cylinder. In other words it measures how much the engine displays power. It does not include the clearance volume or the volume of the combustion chamber. The cylinder volume for a single cylinder engine is higher than the 'cc' of the engine.
It's a basic rule that a car with a bigger engine displacement will consume more fuel for every mile traveled. There are very many factors that affect fuel efficiency, so don't count on minimizing engine displacement in your criteria when you go shopping for a fuel-efficient car.

So how much CC is best for your car? Well, it depends on the purpose for buying your car. Following points will hopefully clear all your doubts.

Buying a Hyundai Car in Mumbai for City use

If you’re looking for a city car, where the roads are leveled properly with minimum slopes, then your car cc doesn’t matter much. You can undoubtedly go for a car with less cc. Having a car with low cc has its own pros and cons.

• Lesser Power: Firstly, because of low cc, the power of the car is less known from its volume displacement. 
• Secondly because of low power, your car doesn’t consume much fuel, that’s where you also have an added advantage of having a fuel efficient car which is a must for city purpose.
• One disadvantage of having a low cc car is that one cannot you cannot take your car to hilly areas as they cannot climb the mountain easily because of having low power.

So if you’re looking for a city purpose Hyundai car, consider Hyundai’s Grand i10 Car and Hyundai Eon Car. Hyundai Eon Car CC for petrol version starts from 814 CC till 998 CC and Grand i10’s has 1197 CC respectively.

Just to clear the confusion from your minds, the 'CC' specification for any engine is rounded off to nearest value. It is never exact. For example, Hyundai i10 has 1086cc engine but it is regarded as an 1100cc engine car.

New or used: Which car to go for?

It is agreed that the pleasure and feeling of driving a brand new car is just undeniable, but if you think logically than buying a used car makes financial sense. There is a high chance of getting confused to select your one car from the entire car industry. But how to know that the car you select is really the right choice for you? By reading the below mentioned Pros and Cons of new and second hand cars, all your hesitations will be cleared. So here we bring you the benefits and drawbacks of buying a new and a used car for both have their own purpose to play.

Advantages of buying a new car

• First Owner - The principal benefit of buying a new car is in being the first owner of the car, which directly helps you keep a gap with its dark past, regular visits to the garage and all other mechanical and paper hassles which generally cause inconvenience to the buyer of a second hand car.
• Maintenance Cost - Another important benefit that a new car can give is it can reduce maintenance cost. For the first several thousand miles a new car won’t need maintenance, and then costs incurring only an oil change and tuneup are required, leaving you with low maintenance cost and enough amount of peace.
• Warranty - Nowadays by buying a new car, one generally gets a ‘three to five’ year extended warranty cards in which if something goes wrong it becomes the responsibility of the dealer and manufacturer to fix it.
• Handy Assistance - With the inclusive warranty by buying a new car, all major carmakers offer free roadside assistance on just a call.
• Installed Gadgets - Another advantage of buying the new car is that the car comes loaded with the latest technology installed gadgets, accessories and equipments. For ex. Hyundai’s new i20 Active. It comes with its new variant features with all the latest technology installed rather than the second hand Hyundai i20’s old model.

 Disadvantages of buying a new car

• Higher Costs - The cost at which you are buying is much higher than what you will pay for a used car.
• Quick Depreciation - If you once bought the new car and then change your mind to sell it ASAP, its value already gets depreciated by 20-30% once it has came out from the showroom.

 

Advantages of buying a used car

• Luxury Car - One should go for a used car when dreaming of buying a Luxury car if it’s unaffordable otherwise. It is the best option as here is a chance when you can get your dream car at half the price rather at the price which you were paying for a new car and were rather unhappy.
• Depreciation Value - The depreciation value of the car remains considerably less than a new one retaining the original value when you plan to resell the car.
• Cheaper Insurance - There’s an advantage at the insurance cover also as for a used car you pay marginally less amount on insurance.

Disadvantages of buying a used car

• No Warranty - A brand new car will generally comes with a pretty extensive warrant whereas a used car will not offer the same protection. The warranty your used car gets generally depends on how old your car is maybe an original factory factory warranty is remaining. If that is not the case it is often a good idea to purchase an extended warranty.
• Difficulty in getting your desired Car - While their selection of used cars is huge you may not get the exact car you are looking for. When buying new, you can choose all the options and colors.

Things to know while buying a Car!

Is your dream car really suitable to fulfill all your needs? It may sound like a simple question to you but it's the truth that you can be easily distracted by impractical cars when you're looking for your dream car.So before buying a Car you should put down the points i.e give priority to the features you needed the most in your new car.

Prioritizing your Needs

• Is it comfort or speed?
• Is it falling for looks or thinking practically?
• Petrol or Diesel?
• Off - roader or simply a city Car?
• New Car or Used Car?

Questions mentioned above are very important to consider as these determine which Car is perfect for you to buy.

There’s no point of buying a sports car if you want to transport a family of four. Similarly, there is no reason to buy a big awkward off-roader if you stay in a city. Why consider mileage as top priority if you travel less than 10km a day? So Petrol or diesel, it doesn’t really matter unless your daily travel is more than 10 kms.
