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.
