you might think it's a little slower because you're used to a faster car. But 320nm of torque in a 1.7l turbo diesel motor is awesome. You can get 1500km to a tank of fuel highway driving in one of those too. I sell Hyundai's and i'm currently driving one for a drive car - i think it's great i enjoy driving it every day. Nice and smooth comfy and power is great.

The question you have to ask is; if you can get 320nm of torque and 1500km per tank from 1.7l,

Why wouldn't you make it 2.2l or 2.4l with a wide ratio box, & actually have a car that goes fast AND gets good fuel economy?

Cause mazda already did that with the 6 diesel. 2.2 litre 130kw 420nw 5.4l per 100

And Hyundai owners are povos, that wouldn't pony up for a mazda.

Would not buy.

If you found out the cost of servicing and replacement of parts on these modern diesels you would freak, the particulate filters alone are worth 3-4k and can block every year or two.

[Daleo]

Pfffft, who needs particulate filters...

[scotty nm35]

I punched one out the other day as it was clogged, the customer couldn't afford the 4k for a new one from Subaru. So happens there are temp sensors in there to help diagnose the burn off phase, without the medium in there this doesn't happen well at all obviously. When the fuel gets dumped to do the clean the car now goes into limp mode.

Love a bit of engineered failure; how else can you make money out of reliable cars?

[scotty nm35]

My point exactly.

Add to that the stupid direct injection issues of carbon build-up around the intake valves and you have some serious maintenance issues, cars are definitely not designed to do half a million k's anymore, not without massive servicing costs.

Hyundai Car is a good and Reputed Car Brand among the all Car Manufacturers.

Best first post Eva.

I bet Mercedes Benz are quaking in their boots...

5 year unlimited km warranty, 7 year roadside assist, 3 years capped price servicing (15,000km-12 month intervals) full size spare better put together interior (easier to navigate and more updated), better features, better value for money and a better looking car is a handful of reasons why i'd buy an I40 over a dolphin-nosed Mazda.
