Think twice before take Hyundai Car.
1. The Tucson car has the cap of the fuel tank under the back seat. Which means there have the "fuel tank access" at the back seat. 2.Both Front Door can easily be open eventhough already locked from inside.. just simply pull the door latch. Highlight to SC, they claim that so call future design. If above is the fact, the Hyundai car is just have a nice look but the customer safety not the priority concern in the car design concept. Further more if you go to access below link , you will find that a lot of customer struggle in Hyundai bad service . http://www.facebook.com/hyundaimalaysia |

QUOTE(ngweichoong @ Jan 19 2012, 01:57 PM) Think twice before take Hyundai Car. Point 1. Most modern cars have this fuel tank cap. It's to gain access to the petrol filter inside the tank, which needs to be changed periodically. No big deal. Maybe because the Tucson's back seats can be moved about easily unlike sedan cars that's why many people encountered this so-called shocker. No big deal.1.

Further more if you go to access below link , you will find that a lot of customer struggle in Hyundai bad service . http://www.facebook.com/hyundaimalaysia Point 2 is really a safety feature, a mechanical unlocking system that allows the occupants from within to open the doors even if it is locked from the outside. The first time I encountered this so-called futuristic feature was many years ago on a Citroen ZX. I also tried it on a Pug 308T, works the same way. On my Forte, it's the same thing but only two front doors. However, when the car is moving, I tried to pull the lever, it won't budge/unlock, only when the car is stopped will this feature work. In other words, there's nothing wrong with the Tucson or any other Hyundai having the above two features which have long been in place in so many cars, including Jap cars (except maybe Point 2 which is more for Conti makes). |

But it is a fact that Hyundai is more premium than Kia in term of their marketing position. Remember Genesis and Equus?It is true a fact but not entirely true. It just from perspective of global consumer including in south korea from the beginning of korean car industry. Hyundai and Kia are technically separate companies, with Hyundai owning less than 50% of its junior partner. But as the two major divisions of the Hyundai-Kia Motor Group, the two firms share resources and align their strategies through carefully-maintained relationships in the classic Korean chaebol (conglomerate) fashion. Hyundai and Kia enjoy a dominant position in Korea, earning 45.2% and 33.2% of the overall Korean market in 2010 (including commercial vehicles). Technically, it just like Proton and Perodua in Malaysia. Proton initially said to be premium than Perodua. However, time to time Perodua catch up wt Proton in term of pricing & quality. Lastly there almost no different between their car (pricing & quality). The past few years, it was said that Hyundai built better car as they own better technology, factory and staff. However, the gap is closer and closer as they share all their resource. As the result, current car pricing and quality is same. Yes they are very closely related in many ways, but there is something called branding. The same reason between VW, Skoda and Seat. Three of them are sharing a lot of similarities yet VW is more expensive than Skoda and Seat. But cheaper Skoda and Seat don't mean that they are inferior or lousy compared to VW, just a matter of branding and positioning. This post has been edited by caddilac: Jan 19 2012, 02:49 PM |

Corolla US spec has 5 speeds compare to Altis 7 speedsthe result is why US spec get only 35mpg meanwhile here got 5.5L on fuel consumption ? May someone answer me... As I know the engine is same |
