Heartbreakid 6th Gear March 12, 2020 Share March 12, 2020 Don't think it is going to look nice. Still with that ugly mouthful grille, still haven't do away the triangular theme (look at the body side) and if spy photos are true, instead of having a small rear quarter window, it is a blanked out unit. By far the best looker of the Elantra was the MD version. Other than that, from AD onwards to its facelift, Hyundai has headed the wrong direction and trying too hard. The interior the new car is probably worth waiting for. Exterior for me personally is already a disappointment. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only when they facelift to the current avante design, then it become ugly. Lol. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current Avante is not nice, especially the rear and you can see the rear camera at the top part of the boot. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ferrytales 4th Gear March 12, 2020 Share March 12, 2020 should be a mini sonata design using the same design language. grille is just audi grille since the designer was poached from audi. gonna resist the temptation to change and wait for the next facelift after this since i just bought the avante 2019 at a good price in 2019.

Vinceng Turbocharged March 12, 2020 Share March 12, 2020 Whatever the looks, price plays a big factor in Singapore. Hyundai was the 4th best selling car in Singapore in 2019, with the "ugly" Avante making up most of the sales. What does that say? 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spring Moderator March 12, 2020 Share March 12, 2020 This model is all new or facelift? Shld be all new right since facelift was just early last year? These days quite confusing esp for Conti cars as they have a few facelifts. Japs n Koreans shld be just one mid life facelift as far as I know. 4 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is an all new model which is planned to launch earlier (just 1.5 years after the facelifted Avante was introduced) because the facelifted Avante styling apparently wasn't very well received and sales weren't good globally. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree that earlier models have more of Hyundai styling character, i.e. XD, HD and MD generation. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
