All-New Hyundai Elantra

Hyundai Motor had its world-premiere of the all-new Avante ( badged as Elantra in markets outside Korea) compact sedan, the company’s best-selling model worldwide, at the 2010 Busan International Motor Show.

With sportier and even more elegant lines than its predecessor, the new Avante continues Hyundai’s fluidic sculpture design philosophy.

Hyundai has applied its latest 1.6L Gamma Gasoline Direct Injection engine and a 6-speed automatic transmission to the front-wheel drive compact, the first time GDI and six-speed automatic have been featured on a compact sedan in the South Korea.

The all-new Hyundai Avante (Elantra) delivers a peak output of 140-ps and maximum torque of 17,0 kg.m. It is also about ten per cent more fuel efficient than its closest competitors, thanks to GDI technology, the six speed automatic gearbox and other fuel economy enhancements.

The 2011 Hyundai Avante (Elantra) will delight and surprise with a raft of other advanced features not found on other compacts, including High Intensity Discharge headlamps, LED combination lamps in the rear, heated rear seats, puddle lamps and a color TFT LCD information display nestled in the gauge cluster
