Pristinequality88 Neutral Newbie November 15, 2006 Share November 15, 2006 yeah man. surprisingly, Latio at only 60kg lesser than Avante, seems like a very light car to me leh. but good pick-up and control. i guess its easier to zip around as well, and for parking, etc too. or maybe my parking kung-fu not that good, haha. but seriously, Avante gives a solid continental feel. just like toyota which 'over-engineered' their cars in the early 90s, I am of the opinion that Hyundai 'overengineered' theirs this time round. The Avante certainly packs a strong punch. Anyone who dismiss its due to the kimchi association is really short-sighted. oh yah..maybe during my test drive the max i went was only close to 70km/h but not beyond it.. should have steped up more hor.. to test the steering..

Imaginary 1st Gear November 15, 2006 Share November 15, 2006 don like the feel of the steering wheel ... too light. Personally, I like the steering wheel to be light (currently my ride is using hydraulic, getting sick of the relatively heavy steering). I know some people say heavier steering lets you feel in control - but to me that's crap - if you're adaptable and receptive to change and have some decent level of intelligence, you'll have the awareness of knowing when and what you're in control of. Honestly, I would take a light steering wheel any day over a heavier steering wheel. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ccssgm 1st Gear November 23, 2006 Share November 23, 2006 Please take note that this is my opinion, need not agree or disagree.... Good Points: Fresh interior, fit and finish of good standard Height adjustable Driver sit Auto Climate control Blue back lights Nice oval air condition indicator Rear armrest with cup holder Press button boot instead of traditional lever opener Ice head set, air con controls etc in good location for easy access Quiet egine below 4k rpm Beautifull body lines Very smooth ride with great gear change Nice Rear New VVT engine Optional sun roof, make car look sportier 15 inch sports rim instead of Hard caps Can be better points: Engine dont feel eager Harsh engine tone after 4k rpm Electric steering give me a not on the ground feeling, maybe not use to it No build in radio head set with steering wheel controls where the Australian have it Overall, will buy this car anytime over some japanese make... Best Hyundai effort so far... My college wil be Driving Avante with Sun Roof to Show Me tomorrow........ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
