My wife and I were waiting for this car since last year. She decided to change her old Honda city to the all new elantra. Went and test drive today the elantra 1.6 high spec. To our surprise, the 1.6 feel very under power. The dashboard quality is bad especially the air con control norb. Feels and looks like a cheap plastic painted silver or something like that. The ride comfortness is no different than the honda city. Even I feel the 1.5 city has better pick up. Overall, the exterial look good. But quality wise for interior, inOkom has made the elantra look very cheap. I was expecting more from this car but it let us down and dissapointment. For the price is deffinately not worth buying.

QUOTE(stinger82 @ Apr 7 2012, 08:16 PM) inokom just assemble, nothing to do with the plastic....
Added on April 7, 2012, 8:20 pmwant power must go 2.0 forte. but then, power is not cheap( same like pumping ron97, lol ) Yes it does. Parts has been strips off and interior material are locally made. Poor quality compare to original avante ( in Korea called avante). So after all these, the price is too high and it's not worth buying. |

does the elantra 1.6 from SD comes with the same engine as korean version? Korean Avante comes with 1.6GDI and 1.6 GDI Blue saver....
The SD Elantra says, Gamma 1.6 MPI D-CVVT
Are they the same?

QUOTE(caddilac @ Apr 8 2012, 05:27 PM) Different. Worldwide Elantra (exclude parallel imported) is getting MPI engine and only South Korea gets GDi engine. QUOTE(V12Kompressor @ Apr 8 2012, 05:27 PM) not the same. GDI is direct injection and MPI is not. All thanks to the quality of our Malaysian petrol. QUOTE(V12Kompressor @ Apr 8 2012, 05:30 PM) The GDI lump. Because it can offer more hp and at the same time using less fuel. meaning.....they are using an older engine? Is Honda I-vtec and Toyota Dual VVT-I and Nissan CVTC using direct injection? This post has been edited by alxdc: Apr 8 2012, 05:51 PM |
