The name may be the same, but the new Hyundai Santro is far removed from the original. In fact, name aside, the engine is the only common element between Santros old and new. The latest model is also positioned slightly higher up the price ladder but hopes to justify its higher price tag with premium features. The new Hyundai Santro is available in petrol-manual, petrol-AMT auto and CNG-manual forms.

Where the original Santro was renowned for its high roof 'tall boy' design, the new model has a more conventional silhouette. Styling is neat but the oversized front grille is polarising. What Hyundai has successfully managed to do is make the cabin feel upmarket despite some obvious cost-cutting. There's plenty of room in the back as well and the feeling of space is enhanced by the large rear windows.

On the positive side, the AMT auto is well in tune with the engine's character and offers timely shifts for the most part. A light steering and tight turning circle make the Santro easy to punt around town in, while the pliant suspension does a good job of bump absorption.
The petrol-AMT is the version of the Santro we'd recommend. It is pricier than the manual but the additional outlay also buys you the convenience of c...
