Hyundai Elantra MD Car Review

The car features a 1600cc engine that uses a D-CVVT system, which doubles valve opening control with multi-point injection (MPI) to maximize the use of every drop of fuel, producing a maximum power of 130 hp, surpassing most competing engines at this time. This is 9 hp more than the previous generation engine, but at the same time, fuel consumption with the manual transmission is reduced by 0.1 liters per 100 km, and remains constant with the automatic transmission at 6.7 liters per 100 km, compared to the previous Elantra. For the first time, both the manual and automatic transmissions come with 6 speeds, resulting in better response to driver needs and greater driving enjoyment. The car's curb weight is 18 kg less than its predecessor with the manual transmission, reaching 1153 kg, and with the automatic, it is 3 kg less, reaching 1184 kg.

The interior design of this generation of the Elantra has a sporty, family feel, and is in keeping with the exterior design with curved lines that give a sense of additional spaciousness to the cabin, which is characterised by ferocity and is fitted with metallic inlays. The car's dimensions have been modified, with a height increase of 45 mm to 1,445 mm, which is lower than its closest direct competitors, giving it a coupe-like feel. The length has increased by 25 mm to 4,530 mm, while the width remains unchanged at 1,775 mm compared to the previous generation. Dimensional changes include shortening the overhang between the front and rear wheels, and streamlined edges to increase airflow from below.

The car has a very spacious interior with a long wheelbase of 2,700 mm, a 50 mm increase over its predecessor. At the time, it outperformed the Kia Cerato and Chevrolet Cruze, with a luggage compartment capacity of 402 liters.

The car offers good noise insulation, and the car's interior offers comfort due to its size and spaciousness, with a spacious rear trunk. However, the rear of the car's interior is uncomfortable for taller people due to the roof's slope, which resembles a coupe roof at the rear. The rear

The car comes with a good, modern, and comfortable dashboard design that is presented without many complications. The car's air conditioning is powerful and distinctive. However, some consider the interior materials of the salon to be poor.

Spare parts for the car are average in price; they are neither cheap nor extremely expensive. It can be said that the price of spare parts for the car is close to that of European and Japanese cars, but they are widely available outside the dealership and at lower prices. Among the problems they face are the steering wheel box, the clutch, and the rear shock absorbers, but their maintenance is easy and they are also widely available in the market.

In the event of collisions, the losses are large, especially for the headlights that extend over large areas in the front and rear, and therefore their losses are high. There are complaints about the poor quality of the exterior paint and its rapid exposure to problems.

As for the car, the ground clearance or height has become 10 mm lower. The 150 mm height is considered by some to be suitable for Egyptian roads, but when there are passengers or luggage in the back, the car's height drops due to the flexible rear springs, causing them to rub strongly against bumps and requiring sideways movement over bumps.

There are some complaints about the car's suspension, which, in some opinion, works in conjunction with its design to make this model unstable at high speeds exceeding 140 km/h. There is a decline in stability after 140 km/h to a certain degree, reaching 180 km/h, in addition to the difficult sensation of road gaps and bumps. The reason is that the car's rear suspension is a Turing Beam, which causes the car to have slight sideways movement over bridge gaps and bumps, especially in turns. However, this problem is addressed with time and getting used to the car, as it also causes a greater sensation of clicking on the roads.

Reselling the car is easy and the resale price is good. There is also a high demand for the car in the used car market, both in supply and demand. It is one of the cars that is considered a good deal when reselling, and you can make a good profit from it due to the high demand for it.
