look at this .... K car is still far behind the J cars

if the K car sale goes up by more than 100% which mean previously the sale was really bad .

For the EPS vs hydraulic steering, it's really a matter of preference and setup.

I've so far driven both EPS and hydraulics steering from Hyundai's offering, both steering weight is about the same, just that the EPS is lighter and has weaker feedback but they're still enough there for you to react to road conditions.

We are far behind, but we are catching up for sure.

It is quite true that the sales for Korean vehicles were really bad few years back, but Rome ain't built in a day smile.gif

Updated Rumor :

- No ready stock for Elantra, if it launch in November, join the waiting list brows.gif
- No clear answer on why HSDM is launching Elantra this late, but it's business strategy so I heard hmm.gif
- If you order the car in november/december 2011, you're very likely(not absolutely) to get 2012's car.

man delay keep delay i switch to POLO GTI huhu
180 PS (or 178 hp, if you will) at 6,200 rpm and 250 Nm at 2,000-4,500 rpm, and the Mk5 gets a seven-speed Direct Shift Gearbox transmission – with an XDS electronic transverse differential lock – as standard. Performance specs for the 1,269 kg hatch include a 6.9 seconds 0-100 kph time as well as a 229 kph top speed.

really disappointing what SD doing, Hyundai great lineup should have better treatment then any.

Normal Polo cost around RM115k, what price range do you expect on Polo GTI?

Anyway, hope can get car by end of year...

Yup it's true, read it at a few sites too. In S.Korea itself, a slap in the face for taikor Hyundai cos the Sonata lost in sales to the K5. But TBH, both cars oso cun la.
