I have to rant a bit about white cars in Malaysia. Beh tahan already. Why is there so many white cars in Malaysia? I just came back from Stuttgart, I see barely NO white cars there. Maybe 1-2 units out of a hundred. But when I touch down in Malaysia, all cars are white, especially the new ones. Not boring meh? No offence to white owners, but I think it's a trend going on in Malaysia. biggrin.gif

The question, is the Malaysia car owners really opted for white or is limited to choice on the available stock/long waiting time? cool2.gif

After rain in Malaysia, doesn't matter what car also dirty la.

White car + snow = very good camouflage. A point given by a foreign friend.

Many Malaysian are very funny, you see them rather follow other car to a busy toll lane, than go into an empty lane... I've seen it happen many time. "Ppl have = I have; ppl do = i do; follow only lo"

That's normal for city drive. Again I comparing with my ex 1.8 altis. Same FC
If constant 80km/h, our owners club gang already achieved 5.3L/100km.
There is no miracle in city driving unless u get a hybrid.

No offence bro, but if I were you I will not be satisfied if it is same fc with altis 1.8 (not mistaken, it is pre-fl 4 speeder? ) as Elantra is claming a far superior mix driving fuel consumption than altis. Anywa, I really enjoy driving my elantra, no doubt.

80km/h can achieve 5.3L/100km with elantra 1.8 or 1.6? If it is 1.8 I must say "wow !"

Yup, agree that no miracle in city driving as too much variation in terms of traffic and such. I actually did say the same thing to others. Now I am trying my best to keep my right foot as gentle as possible, and not rev pass 2k if possible (very hard as our 1.8 and 6 speed ratio is rev friendly) and try to avoid heavy traffic as much as possible. I will see what fc I get in the end. If I need to drive like an idiot to achieve a near to factory claim consumption rating, I will say that there is a big flaw in the factory rating as it is unachievable under "normal" driving. What for to buy a 1.8 car while you need to drive so gentle with slow acceleration in order to achieve the rated fc? Hyundai mustn't be so ambitious with their advertised FC as they know in real world, alot of things need to be taken into account.

US test it in their highways. And their highway are really 5 lane super ways.
As for comparison, I am comparing with horror stories ppl say korean cars suck petrol. So my logic is, nowadays if same as japs, damn good dy.
Anyway, the only to achieve good FC while city driving is downgrade to light car(perodua?) or hybrid.

So long it's not a thirsty petrol drinker. I'm glad. I know I won't get good FC, as my route are full with bumps and drivers whom love to step on brake for no reason. I never get below 10L/100KM so far. And yet, I'm still happy with my ride.

Guess they should really revise the way they test the fuel consumption. Engine wise, japanese maybe still has the edge in low end torque I guess.

Yup, korean cars have improved alot, so far very satisfied with the elantra, more than 4k milleage, no rattling, vibration, very solid car. Assembly quality seems to be better than some japanese rival.

Only one complaint is the exhaust hissing sound is quite obvious when on hard acceleration (with audio turn off), don't know if any owner notice that. Went to SC to check they say it is normal exhaust sound, but as I was on a rush, I didn't further question.
