HUNDAI GL 100 Unique

The Hundai GL Unique 100 is a standard commuter bike. And we already know how valuable standard commuters are in Bangladesh. Mostly because of their fuel efficiency and affordability. Most people don’t want to spend as much time or money on their bikes, which is why standard small capacity bikes are more reasonable to them. These bikes are not necessarily highly efficient, they just consume less fuel compared to higher capacity bikes.

Hundai is a Chinese motorcycle brand. Hundai bikes are imported by Rupsha Trading Corporation. Rupsha Trading is also responsible for Zongshen motorcycles in Bangladesh. They import most of these bikes in CKD conditions and then assemble them here in Bangladesh. Rupsha is one of the oldest motorcycle manufacturers of the country. They have made a serious name for themselves in the motorcycle industry of Bangladesh.

Key Features:
The Hundai GL Unique 100 comes with a fairly regular design. The design somewhat reminds you of the TVS Metro. The bike comes with a long single seat, with the rear part of the seat slightly elevated, which gives the pillion the much-needed privacy. The bike also has a tail rack, which allows for the rider to strap in any extra baggage to the rear. The bike also had a crash guard.

The Hundai GL Unique 100 comes with a 100cc engine, which makes the engine consume less compared to larger capacity engines. The bike is expected to consume about 50-55kmpl. The fuel consumption should allow the bike to ride without any worries for days under heavy use. However, for the bike to continue with the low fuel consumption, it should be well maintained and properly checked out.

Physical Attributes:
The Hundai GL Unique 100 is a short bike with short saddle height. The bike may seem tall, at 1080mm of height, due to the upright handlebars. The bike also has a large fuel tank of 13liters. The large fuel tank ensures that you don’t have to think of filling the bike up now and then.

The Hundai GL Unique 100 has a single-disc brake setup. The front wheel has a disc, which is unexpected for a bike of this Power figure.

The Hundai GL Unique 100 comes with telescopic forks at the front and spring-loaded twin suspensions at the back. The front suspension being telescopic is expected to be average and similar to other bikes of this range. The rear suspension will be quite comfortable for the pillion, but won’t be the best for cornering.
