kennyyy 4th Gear July 4, 2018 Share July 4, 2018 Particularly this I think I would choose elantra for pick up from rest. City pickup from rest is sibeh dull due to CVT.. But after rubber band effect, the acceleration very shiok.. Hi Bro, Elantra pick up abt 11.8s which is pretty slow leh .. I was going for these features - good, FC, Good rear legroom, boot size, rear aircon, keyless entry, knockdown seats, lot of charging points, Cruise control + paddle shifters, climate control etc Hi bro, mind sharing hw much u bought? Also, wat colour choice does KM have? ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay321 1st Gear July 4, 2018 Share July 4, 2018 City SV ($88,999) should be compared to Elantra GLS Elite ($84,999) and K3 SX Sports ($91,999). Elantra and K3 road tax slightly higher. K3 got more features in the car than City and comes in slightly more ex than City by $3k. In this scenario, City sounds logical to me leh. Comparison.JPG Nice comparison. Thanks for that. Double confirmed that I made a good choice within my budget, that meets my expectations. Hi Bro, Elantra pick up abt 11.8s which is pretty slow leh .. Hi bro, mind sharing hw much u bought? Also, wat colour choice does KM have? As per the promotion of Honda, City 1.5 SV is $88,999. Not ready to lower but with my old car handover, it came down to $80K With the COE less than $30K, got a $5k rebate. They had 3 types of blue - sporty blue, nocturnal metallic blue, Metallic blue, red, grey and white, black etc. I chose Nocturnal metallic blue. Looks gorgeous. Pleasing to the eye.

Contipro 5th Gear July 5, 2018 Share July 5, 2018 The reliability, economical FC (check the One motoring fuel calculator - Elantra has higher FC), also I see a lot of Elantra in the resale market but not many City. Also, I was looking for Jazz and City is another version of Jazz in a way. I didn't even consider it - many taxis are using Kia - so not keen you are right if FC is a concern, then elantra will not meet your expectation. Unless drive very very slow with very very light foot, then may be can achieve something. but City is less features, if you are okay with it then will be a good choice for you. happy shopping of your new ride.

If you dont mind bright colour, should have choose the red. It looks nice on city. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Contipro 5th Gear July 5, 2018 Share July 5, 2018 Elantra is a heavy car. from engineering point of view when a manufacturer advertise using of latest technology on material such as carbon fibre or high strength steel, the purpose is to make the car much lighter but achieve the same/better rigidity. how come Elantra became more heavy... ?? lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
