I bring some updated news. A lot of questions has been asked and I am back with answers.

Leather Seats - ALL, yes ALL range is leather seats, with 1.8 getting Nappa leather. Nappa leather may not be black colour.

Gearbox - 6 speed automatic and 6 speed manual

Wheel Size - 16 inches on the 1.6 with 205/55 rubber. 17 inches on the 1.8 with 215/45 rubber.

Rain Sensor - No Rain Sensor

Colours - Unconfirmed, but is said to be launching with 6 colours. White, Silver, Black, Red, Blue, and very possible, hyper metallic grey.

Brake System - 4 disc brakes and 4 ABS with ESP and VSM.

Technical data is said to show the fuel consumption to be 11.6cent/KM for the 1.6 Manual, 12.7cent/KM for the 1.6 Auto, and 13.5cent/KM for the 1.8 Auto.

Pricing? By the words from the head of sales Elantra is a 'c-segment car with a c-segment price'. As for waiting period, head of sales say there'll be a lot of ready stock during launching.

Here's some bonus pictures, can you recognize these cars?

Is it really that hard to reverse the calculation?

9/10 of my customer catch no balls when I say L/100km. They're always saying 'wah, so high' until I translate them into cent/km. What's the point of following international 'standard' when no one tries to understand what's efficient and what's not?

The other question to highlight my point is 'Full tank how much?', if I answer litre capacity, they'll give me the puzzled look and ask 'How much per tank?'

I do have L/100km figures if you all wants it. So here they are

1.6 Manual - 6.1L/100km
1.6 Auto - 6.7L/100km
1.8 Auto - 7.1L/100km
I am not too sure yet as the head of sales isn't around that day, hopefully it's black.

I guess this 6.7/100km(1.6 Auto) was quote by Hunydai manufacturer and no surprise is only the same wat Kia quote their Forte as 6.6 litre/100km(1.6 Auto). but when come to real life everything should expect slightly higher. Personal thought i just wish Elantra can have lower FC as compare to Forte so that i have to kick out my consideration on forte rclxub.gif
