Is Hyundai really good in Handling? Compared to Honda and Nissan?

[Vicz]

Yeah it might be bias.

 

This video looks like one commercial that advertising sonata... moreover, its korean. no need discussion, u know i know...period.

[Bimmer12]

haha.. Need to organize race events. Where u can see how these cars really performs. I want to open tyre shop and a fuel station can make good $$..LOL!

[Civicblade]

I've owned the NF 2.4 sonata and I must say compared to my other previous car, the civic ES5, the handling of the much heavier sonata is better than civic ES.

Check out this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kBhiB_qH1KY .

cannot believe it...can't accept...

[King]

The Sonata, Tuscani, Avante and Azera handles good. Obviously MPVs and SUVs handling cannot compare to a sedan.

 

tuscani for a coupe...below average...

 

avante is a improvement over the preious elantra

 

sonata..the best i think

[Bimmer12]

Must ask the taxi drivers. How fast they corner. Or CivicBlade how his 2.4 sonata handles.

I must say that there are too many people underestimate Hyudai car.... its no longer the Hyudai in the 80s.... they are 1 of the leading car maker and respectable car quality....

[Application9999]

I drove Jap, Kimchi and conti before...I must said,,,,people just don't believe kimchi had improved...Japan is no longer the best...btw...am driving a jap car now..

krap acting lah... ask kimchi go join WRC see if the ford focus, evo IIIV, Rex and citreon will kena trashed by their sonata or rather the other way round...

[EventH]

Got lah ... there was the accent wrc

 

[inline "Hyundai Accent WRC F_Loix Alemania 03.jpg"]

 

It didn't do well against its WRC counterparts .. but against regular road cars, even the mighty R34 GTR got trashed.

to be fair, this accent only share the bodyshell with the regular road car.

[Sfrtuscani]

hmmm..if u follow the wrc closely u'll know that evo was rank last in XXXX year... and hyundai is infront of evo....checkout the year urself..... the accent wrc team face limited finance support compared to the big boys and i wonder did evo dug a hole and hide?

its not even mmc's ralliart team, tat has been disbanded lah. it's FL drivers, former MMC team or tuning houses. these drivers get free cars and spares to join at their own expenses.

I suppose mechanical steering geometry and suspension structure can easily be copied.

So technically there is no limitations on how any car can match the Jap or German on handling.

I guess its more about the economics of making a car that sells and makes more profits.

 

Honestly, how many percentage of people in Singapore, India, China or Korea REALLY cares about the ultimate driving experience?

 

How many of us do salome or B type of road daily? Those that want to enjoy such driving experiences will buy the right car for themselves. This group of people is very small.

 

Most of us are happy with a cheap and convenient car, one that can turn corner and brake is good enough.

[Sfrtuscani]

u seems a die hard fan of mit.... no matter who they are(i dont care) they represents mit.... if u dig further, even the current lancer EX engine is developed together with hyundai and daimler.....

[Sfrtuscani]

well said... s'poreans just cant take the fact that their ride costing more than a Korean car or better establish brand is actually on par with them....
