| I am planning to buy either Elantra CRDi or GLS and would like to make my decisions based on comfort and fuel efficiency. For a usage of about 15-20K kilometers per year what would be the recommendation. Are there any concerns with the possiblity of Elantra production stopping in the short term to make way for the Verna and/or other models that will affect the availability of spares and support from Hyundai? |

| Senior - BHPian | petrol is more for enthusiasts and those who dont really drive long distances. crdi isnt much behind petrol though but it depends whether you need a diesel or not. I would say try it out if you have never owned a diesel. People have had good experiences and you wont be an exception. but I may personally buy a petrol just for the heck of it.

| CRDi is a wonderful technology but its very prone to adultrated fuel. it cant take adultrated fuel with the ease of regular cars hence if u not careful u might ruin the whole engine. nothing personal against CRDi, i myself was considering it sometime back. pls correct me if i m wrong guys. |

As for fuel - yes the common rail engines are more sensitive to bad fuel, but a tankful of good fuel normally gets them back to their smiling selves again.

| BHPian | Can some Elantra owners please post real world fuel economy figures for both the models. I have read somewhere on this forum itself and Elantra Petrol gives a mileage of about 7KMPL in the city conditions. If so, it appears to be very low compared to other cars in its segment. -Sumit

| If someone can confirm that the FE of GLS is at least 9 kmpl, I am probably going to like GLS. While CRDi seems to be a good technology, can you please point me to the driving confront, vibration and noise levels of CRDi w.r.t. GLS. I can live with a milage of 9+ but certainly not 6-7kmpl for petrol. I will go for my decision early next week. |

| BHPian | hey i have an elantra GLS-its been really nice,has not givenme even one problem till now(and hope it never does) its comfortable to drive,it has good response,and to top it up it is giving me a mileage of 10-11.so i would suggest you go in for the gls if you are not too keen on the crdi |
