The South Korean automaker has been dropping new information and pictures on its mid-size sedan that will take its place between the Sonata and the Genesis. This time we have details on the engine options for the Korea domestic market version, which will continue to use the Grandeur nameplate.

 

In South Korea, the Azera will be offered with a choice of two naturally aspirated engines, both featuring direct-injection technology. The base model will be powered by the same 2.4-liter GDI four-cylinder gasoline unit found on the Hyundai Sonata and Kia Optima, while the flagship version will be motivated by a 3.0-liter GDi V6 delivering 270HP and 31.6 kg/m of peak torque. The company states on the official brochure that the four-cylinder model will return an average fuel consumption of 12.8 km/lt while the V6 will deliver 11.6 km/lt.

 

The new Azera shares the same design language as the Sonata with its sloping roof line. However, the front grill seems more proportional on the Azera than the Sonata (a bit oversized). Similarly, the cockpit of the Azera looks like an enlarged version of the Sonata

a Hybrid in design between the Kia K7 and Hyundai i45....

 

and hopefully they've retained the upmarket interior build quality as well (which isn't seen on the i45 sadly enough, probably due to cost cutting measures)....

  • Carpark Review: Junction 8

    Built in the 1980s, Bishan (or Bishan New Town) may not be one of the earliest housing estates in Singapore, but it was the first whose HDB architecture saw a departure from the more brutalist designs of the past and featured more variation in height and design.  Residents are primarily served by Junction 8, which opened in 1993. Now more than 30 years old, it remains the sole mall in the Bishan East area. Driving there? Here’s our quick review of the carpark.  Manoeuvrability: T
