Hyundai got a roadshow at Watertown Pt, what are the prices for i30 & CW over there?Probably... no reason not to keep the cars in the same band... and don't get scared by the sales people telling you the price will jump after July... cos they'll definitely re-tune the engine to meet the emissions standards... they won't want to do themselves in with a car priced out by the taxes... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt that will be the case. Its not like old school carburetor or using a twin balancer to tune a weber carb of an alfa. It needs to go thru a whole host of certification bodies that SG is totally relying on to get the attestation. BUT, whatever it is, the certification was still fooled by VW during the dieselgate. So unless the engineers did not go to jail and were rehired by Hyundai, I highly suspect its not a matter of changing the settings and hosay liao. Only wild card here is that the COE may drop and the car prices even out the uptick for emission. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only wild card here is that the COE may drop and the car prices even out the uptick for emission. Actually it's just a matter of adjusting the engine parameters... the case in point is the Sonata that I drive... it uses the same 2.0 L Nu engine used in the i45 and my 2016 Sonata and in the current 2018 face-lifted Sonata. Mechanically they're all identical but the secret is in the tuning... the engine found in the i45 and my 2016 Sonata are only Euro 4 compliant. The current version of the Nu engine is Euro 6 compliant and also compliant with our VES that comes into force in July... the horsepower has dropped from 160+ to just 150 now... actually if you examine the engines of the Japanese 2.0 L engines, the same trend is also seen... to meet the VES... don't really need a lot of re-engineering... and also not gaming the rules... basically if you want to meet emissions standards, you lose power... quite normal...

retrozz 3rd Gear May 25, 2018 Share May 25, 2018 If COE prices slide from July by $5k, then i30 would be more worthwhile to get from July onwards. At least the rebate wouldnt eat into the scrap value by $5k. The premium Komoco has is around $25,000 with COE based on listed price Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats according to you or you will attest that LTA "thinks" the same way so its like how they sell durian. Sure bao cheit ? Because if from your point of view, just import in the i30 with 140 bhp. And if the COE chiong , detune to 125 bhp to CAT A, easy peasy, lemon squeezy Edited May 26, 2018 by Sdf4786k Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Btzqabc Neutral Newbie May 27, 2018 Share May 27, 2018 Not much to be honest. 3 servicing nia. But the front and rear security cameras and tinting I guess are standard. I wanted the brown (forgot what color exactly ) but it’s out of stock so the next best for me was stargaze blue. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
