Hyundai Motor India — Hyundai I20 Emission Standard

Address:

Bangalore, Karnataka

I was advertised and sold a Hyundai I20 as a Euro V Ready Vehicle in June 2009. I attach the Advertisement of Hyundai in period January/February 2009 (reference number bottom right, it is a legit Advertisement). In the advertisement you will see that this vehicle was sold as a Euro V ready vehicle (bottom list of specs). In fact all their brochures and print advertisements were carrying this information. You can also find a Hindu article of that period: http://www.hindu.com/2008/12/30/stories/[protected].htm I bought and registered the vehicle in Bangalore in June 2009. Now I need to move the vehicle permanently to Ahmedabad. The Regional Transport Office at Ahmedabad only registers Euro4 vehicles. The Hyundai company is now telling me that my vehicle is a Euro 3 vehicle only, and trying to find all sorts of meanings to ``Euro V ready'' that they had advertised the vehicle with. I am an engineer: When a complete vehicle is advertised as Euro V ready, it means the Vehicle's Engine, along with the Car Kerb Weight, Catalytic Converter, Transmission, is putting out emissions which comply to Euro V standards. There cannot be more meanings to this!! In fact, this was one of the only cars that was advertising this as being ``future ready''. I had to highlight this wrong doing from Hyundai India for people to know, because the Dealer and the Hyundai Regional Office are trying to misguide now, by trying to find meanings to Euro V ready. Hyundai India Management wakeup, don't let the company go to dogs like this and try to make a fool out of Indian Consumers. I have been a happy Hyundai Customer, but Gross Lies and Misleading Information like these are not acceptable to us.
