The new Hyundai Elantra will launch on 10 Dec 2020.
Price around RM130k.
CBU from Korea.
Outstanding design and the price is reasonable for a CBU. I think can fight with Honda Civic.
Quality- Better than Civic
Design- Better than Civic
Specs- Similar with Civic
Price- Similar with Civic

But too bad no auto parking and no 360 camera.

U call the design nice? It's too over the top lah.

2018 design better.

Why need auto parking tho?

Parking skill sucks until need the car to do it for u?

why compare to civic?

Nicee

topkek pricing

Sos?

Ppl manja need all senang. You'll be amazed at how many people cant park without reverse camera

experience?

Top up skit dpt Beemer

Elantra also got Hyundai SmartSense, just that no turbo engine only. But CBU quality. Honda CKD quality LOL

2018 design too conservative la. This new design is more striking.

The more the equipment, the better.

Both also C segment sedan

SA told me.

smartsense will be included meh in this elantra? even sonata didnt get smartsense

Got bro, trust me.

hnggghhh can't wait!

Can compete with madza 3?

Potential segment challenger. Toyota Altis and Honda Civic ..

the only time i used the auto assist was, wait never. the only one time my car doing the auto asist park was delivery day when the salesdude demo to me.

i was like if this was option i would probably NEVER spec it.

Not in Msia where rv matters most.

In SG, the top spec Elantra is more expensive than the top specs of Mazda 3, Toyota Altis and Honda Civic (except the 1.5P version)

Below the SmartSense features for Malaysia Elantra:
Forward Collision Warning and Avoidance Assist
Blind Spot Collision Warning and Avoidance Assist
Lane Keeping Assist & Lane Following Assist
Rear Cross Traffic Alert & Avoidance Assist
Smart Cruise Control with Stop & Go
Driver Attention Warning
Tyre Pressure Monitoring System
But they took out reverse parking avoidance assist.

And also got wireless smartphone charging pad and Android Auto and Apple Car Play.

Can, because Mazda 3 top specs RM 160k

Sure rm130k?
Btw 1.6L enough power?

kalau x ada sos, jangan bukake thread.

Preview just in

u think the exterior is the selling point?

wait till u see the interior
the interior is what attracts me when it launches in SK years ago

TS already seen the car in MY?

Youtube hari hari dapat ad ni, masuk lowyat pun dapat ad dari TS

Where can view and test drive?

No over the top advertising like city, this car is destined to failed

U mean 2020 interior better or worse than 2018?

actually we all know it's 2020 elantra but this is launched in SK for few years already
only for us is new
and yes, better...all screen left to right

yucks.. catfish car

who say CBU quality must be better? this is Hyundai not others

Can so big will it be under power?

inb4 elantra 1.6T CBU only 138k

C segment car with B segment engine & suspension

Incoming Korean car haters and their overloard Kevin23




Fking Msians still think Korean car quality is shit. Truth is CKD Honda have even more laughable quality

At least Honda still worth 65% of the original price in 5 years

Go check Honda resale value and come back

Malaysian consumers risk getting left behind with their outdated views on the world of automobiles.

My CBU elantra 2013, 220k mileage never broke down before, no dashboard rattling sounds, power windows still working perfectly, electronics all still working, never spent overnight at workshop before. So yes, CBU Hyundai beats the crap out of topkek ckd quality.

The main reason why people bought the previous old elantra or kia forte was because the price was on the b segment market. Dirt cheap for a c segment. Now there is no more reason to buy.

Here.. Read...
Hyundai Elantra

kalau xde tebu, kita pasang tebu.

If u consider resale value when purchasing the car means u can't afford it....

i actually feel korean car is going the right direction by NOT going to small displacement and tebocasing it

Wait till self driving

owait

3 years later resale val 30k, rubbish car

This is CBU from Korea, not from Pakistan.

Careful bro, Honda fans incoming...

i hope this starts at RM101k

No, not RM 101k, That price you can buy X50 la

Yeah around RM 130k. Enough power if you just drive normally.

Euwww torsion beam

totally my cup of tea since the next honda civic design wants to please uncle taste.

however it is korean car with expensive spare parts and may have risk to get parts after few years....i am somewhat hesitate...

Fooh

The design really modern and eye catching

Too bad i'm into SUV alrdy

The new Honda Civic design looks boring, suitable for uncles and aunties. This will be a game changer in the C segment sedan market.

Cannot la SUV.
Sedan> SUV
Sedan normally has a sleeker look.

i owned Elantra 2012 1st batch ....drove for 6 years...very satisfied before i move to conti

Booked x50 but until now no car. Elantra looks tempting!

everyone still talking bout RV... if so damn poor pls dont buy car ride bicycle

btw this design looks weird to me, same to hyundai kona

Cant wait for second hand

It's this the first critirea when you buy car ?

What a sad life.

And you do not know any one working as a tow truck driver.

Please tell me I'm correct.

Some conti car owners know them by their names. No joke. Enventually they become friends.

Still prefer the older looks.

jayraptor

How is Hwonday's strategee?

This design to edgy

Couldn't past the test of time

Elantra MD fluid design looks more lasting

Design good but powertrain sucks. Need to at least match the civic

X50 got 360 camera, auto parking, remote access of the car but Elantra don’t have. To me 360 camera is a critical feature to have, especially on a big car like Elantra.

True but x50 booked until now cannot deliver..

Yes sir, never called a tow truck for the elantra.

weeeeeaaakkkk ass powertrain

should be sold rm99k max

X50 > Elantra

Those mood lights are so awesome! Hope sime darby didn't remove it.

Malaysia Elantra don't have the 64 colour ambient lighting. Sime Darby already removed it. What a waste.

130k for torsion beam is not worth. It

Possible elantra will price similar to Mazda 3 ?

Not RM 160k so expensive la. This new Elantra is around RM 130k.

Very kesian now, cold calling previous customers any older 1 they can dig out from.old records asking whether want to test drive. The new head got the name dragon from oto bawalia appointed by Dinnes (terbalik i & e) said hwontai is beemer level high keras kualiti. After failing big in 2018-2019, principal said no more CKD in newer models.

Principal brought in gang of 20 over experts from korea tested numbers of Japanese rivals also don't know what advantage of Hwontai other than saying hwontai more gadgets and better NVH said Japanese interior not so solid bound to rattle later. That's the only strategy korean gave to local hwontai so endee up kantoi now

CKD Elantra already RM120k, what makes you think CBU Elantra can price rm130k with current tax rate on CBU increased so high by roket tm? If Mazda 3 RM160k then Elantra CBU if brought in could be rm150k border. Just look at cheap Kona, price how much already? It's smaller than HRV and supposed to be priced rm10k lower than HRV originally planned CKD at RM90k. Now CBU ended up selling RM135k being rm10k less than Toyota C-HR. Elantra priced higher than Kona so probably around C-HR or higher due to revised tax rate.

They should buy back old cars at good price to boost RV.

But the interior no no no

The previous generation facelift Elantra that was launched in 2019 was priced at RM 109k, where did you get the RM 120k figure??? The new generation CBU Elantra they are able to priced at around RM 130k because they brought in the 1.6L instead of the 2.0L to keep the taxes low.

Still got quote for 1st 50 customers discount?

It is a bad strategy because 1.6 engine can’t compete with Honda, Toyota or even Mazda. Hyundai Malaysia keep shooting itself on its foot by bringing in lower powered Elantra.

I don’t know about this.

Last time they brought in the higher powered Elantra also nobody buys it what. This time might as well just bring in the lower powered version to keep the cost down. Can’t blame them though, it’s because of our rubbish tax structure on cars.

Some youtuber reviewer said the 1.6l can generate enough horsepower for the weight of this car, unlikely to be underpowered.

They screw up the Elantra line similar like how Kia screw up Cerato. Both should be C segment cars but both distributor keep marketing them as competitor to B segment Honda City and Toyota Vios. That is why now they have difficulty convincing the malaysian public these cars are worthy to be priced higher than 130k and had to bring in lower specs version to keep the price low but its still not low enough like City or Vios.

They themselves don't take in high RV. NASA came up with special good RV plan only if you changed new keeah within 5 years, so the plan failed. They expect people that forked out so much to buy new car to quickly sell off in 5 years and buy another new car when still stuck with loan then take new higher loan fork out more money.

Elantra 1.8L 2011/2012 priced rm115k.

Elantra 2.0 2017 rm120k, 1.6T RM 136k

Ugly elantra 2.0L 2019 at rm120k but then started slashing price on their own minus rm10k but unofficially minus more like Sonata LF. Self cut price cannot change the official declared price.

Check Sonata 2.5L price how much first then you'll figure out roughly where elantra 2021 park. New Sonata more expensive than Camry CBU from Thailand, do you really think Elantra 2.0L can park itself near Altis price range? More likely higher than Altis.

Cerato in 2017 priced higher on C segment level. Then they started slashing price of 1.6L RM10k then another rm10k to RM80k competing against vios and city yet failed to sell in numbers. Such a disgrace for C segment 1.6L failed to grab more sales from Vios City. Almera can't fight vios city head on also cut price RM10K to preve level only can sell. Maybe cerato slashed another RM10k can challenge Almari.

If really don't care about rv and want wow factor might as well get mazda 3 sport back
