Alfc 5th Gear April 22, 2019 Share April 22, 2019 What a nice looking teksi..All the teksis are getting upmarket. From the Camrys in Sydney to Opel Insignia locally. They are joining the bandwagon of Audi A3, Alphards, Mazda 3, Altis, Wish, Vezel etc just to name the common models. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spurman Supercharged April 22, 2019 Share April 22, 2019 Din see the new sonata on the road yet in seoul. But i saw sonatas on a trailer.. Btw sat on my nil's brother's sorrento for a short trip. The interior is nicer than sg sorrento. Brown interior. dashboard looks premium. Leathery touch. Maybe the highest grade model? The current teksi in seoul mostly on sonata vii and grandeur. Theres noticably diff in interiors compared to non taxis one. Really is the interior of these makes that makes hell a diff in feel sia Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easier to get around sometimes as the metro run parallel n interchange station quite far.

No other form of communication except kamsahamnida when i paying & getting off One particular teksi driver was quite fixated on my Note 9 and kept talking about it in korean. Dunno what to say except "Samsung, korea - good, good" while giving him a thumbs up. Lol Edited April 22, 2019 by Soya 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheefarn 5th Gear April 23, 2019 Share April 23, 2019 This is how the new Sonata N may look like. 300hp 2L Turbo GDI as shared by the i30N Performance package, not the water down I30N we have in SG. Hyundai will have a big winner if Komoco brings this here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfc 5th Gear April 23, 2019 Share April 23, 2019 (edited) As much as I would like to concur, the market perception here for Korean cars has not mature to the stage of acceptance yet as a premium or normal goods status. Just look at the comments on the car forum here which is supposedly for the more savvy people and yet.... So it gives a picture of the feel outside. Secondly, take reference from the Kia Stinger. Still can't shake off the " it's Korean so it must be cheap" mindset. Even without looking at the real car (the new Sonata), the spec, the test drive, already has comments on price expectation.

Heartbreakid 6th Gear December 2, 2019 Share December 2, 2019 3 hours ago, teomingern said: Many say look like a catfish face... ha ha ha... actually quite true leh... Hyundai just went overboard with the big mouth design. In fact the normal version and the hybrid models have nicer grille, it is the Turbo models that went with the carfish mouth grille design. Hyundai designer just need to curb their obsession on the big mouth grille because it just doesn't work for them. The current facelift Avante, just went overboard with the triangular and big mouth theme. And compare to their sister brand KIA, KIA is much more successful in designing for originality. Look at the Cerato? And the recently unveiled KIA Optima/K5, which simply blew away the latest Sonata away as far as design theme and attractiveness are concerned.

SGCMmilkysilver Neutral Newbie December 17, 2019 Share December 17, 2019 Any news yet if Komoco going to launch this model? If yes, best to be the 1.6T than the cmi 2L again. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
