Since its launch in the Philippines 6 years ago, the Hyundai Eon never went through any changes or minor updates at all. And the company is truly proud to say that the Eon still remains as one of their consistently best selling cars in the hatchback segment.

The Eon is a 4 door mini hatchback that has a FWD layout design. Armed with its curvaceous and stylish body type, the Eon gets an additional plus point for this accompanied with its uniquely designed hexagon shaped front grille with subtle chrome embellishments. Adding to its design is a pair of elongated and contoured headlights which makes the Eon look bigger and wider.

The car is equipped with the basic features needed for everyday driving, it is ergonomically designed to be driver and passenger friendly.

Moving into its interiors,  the car is originally designed to sit 5 passengers but due to its limited wheelbase, the rear cabin can get a little bit cramped for 3 adult passengers. For average sized Filipinos, both headroom and legroom space won't really be a major issue at all.
