Hyundai Elantra Sport 1.6L Turbo review - AutoBuzz.my

[@iamryanlittle]

Hey, AutoBuzz! Honored to have my music in your video.

[@asrul_hadi]

Nice music

[@samueltan2148]

I didn't expect myself to enjoy this review so much. Nice one, Mr Adrian, keep it up ✌️

[@kaiser98berlin]

Came from an article in wapcar where a Johor plate Elantra Sport with stage 2 pushed it to 350hp!! Crazy how the Koreans made a rooftop Koreans of this

[@holisticcoons]

I remembered GC Mah car reviews style when watching yours.. which i like. Good job Adrian, all the best to your future reviews.

[@RhythmAndRibs]

From the intro I knew this video would be great. Well done mate, enjoyed it!

[@meijikenbootes]

This guy is good, definitely better from his CX-9 video. He speaks very clearly. And that awkward silence about the boot, i laughed.

[@travischang5565]

Kenneth W no way, the cx9 was meme worthy lol

[@malcomx8791]

Keep up the good work Adrian

[@xiper86]

nice video Adrian, u did exactly what i would have done when the rear boot open just a little...

[@AndrewKNI]

Great review and lovely cars. UK Hyundai fan here :-)

[@dalphinus]

Andy K. UK hey sir, I’m a fans too here.

[@syameer95]

That was a buttery smooth contents presentation, love your style! Thumbs up! Anyway, yeah I do agree that while most Korean cars these days have some of the most impressive package ever for such an affordable pricing of sub-150k with such a rather pleasant and bold aesthetic, the major turn-off point is still the massive usage of hard plastic throughout the cabin albeit a high quality one unlike Toyota, and the steering feel is dead which is quite a shame. Otherwise, the Koreans should be proud of how far they've come. While many typical Malaysian are still sceptical of these Korean marques, those of us who live in expats area would know that a lot of em love the Kimchis, and the Sportage is just as ubiquitous as the CR-V.

[@kumaress7546]

Good job. Detailed review.

[@Beanjuice]

recently got myself a used 18 Elantra sport. Lost my Veloster Turbo in an accident, boy do I love this car. I kinda wish I was able to find the GT Sport however since I do prefer hatchbacks...but honestly I have yet to miss my Veloster Turbo.

[@sharipdx6301]

hi, how much did u get for the used unit?

[@Beanjuice]

@@sharipdx6301 16.9k USD

[@BrandonChuah168]

Pls do comparison video and drag test with its C segment rival. Volkswagen Jetta vs Honda Civic Turbo vs Hyundai Elantra Sport

[@Neo.555]

This is a car I really liked, but I went for a Civic instead. Reason, i might need to sell it in a few years and considering how malaysian market is I was genuinely worried. But I wish I would have taken the risk. Compared to the highly priced honda civic, this is a bargain... Elantra sport is to be compared against Civic Si not the regular turbo. Watch straight pipes or any other youtu.be reviews for an unbiased review. Compared to Civic, it looses on space, digital instrument cluster, and electronic parking break plus auto hold and steering feel. What you gain is a blacked out interior, lumbar support, quiter cabin, reliable engine, better gearbox, better seats, blind spot monitoring, rear cross traffic alert, front parking sensors, better quality speakers and most importantly no rattling! If all of these are significant to you then buy the Elantra Sport or else buy a Civic. Base version of the Civic wins for sure and it's value for money but if you are opting for turbo, then elantra sport is a better buy.

[@Neo.555]

faiz489 brand and model values and thus the price is created by the people and the demand. If people realise that Kia or Hyundai is of good quality, then sooner or later the resale values are going to go high. No doubt that Kia and Hyundai Malaysia needs to do more, say a 7yr warranty might in itself will increase the sales.

[@Neo.555]

faiz489 Those who don't switch cars like smartphones, right now this Elantra is a bargain deal

[@ygovec]

How much now if were to purchase

[@zalfitrimutalip869]

Still prefer GC Mah. But all the same, you did a good job Mr. Adrian. Try to be a bit more natural and humourous like GC. Keep up the good work guys!

[@lakhsmantianlangkehesvaran6754]

Nice Review ...Good Job ..Love the enthusiasm..

[@derekow5638]

Awesome review Adrian! I've been working ass off to afford this car in the future but I like how u relate the sport's colour to the M4 haha. TBH, when I first saw one, I had the exact same thought... but anyways, stay cool man!

[@christan6218]

Would prefer red seats, really enjoy your review!

[@JohnnyJTav]

Love the Blazing Yellow paint... I Wish USA would have that color available.

[@lonewalker213]

7:03 , haha LMAO! Hope to see more of your reviews, good one!

[@hauyean86]

10:53 ohh best part..

[@edwardmazibuko3608]

What's the actual name of that yellow paint job ??? great review bra

[@AdrianChiaa]

Edward Mazibuko Blazing Yellow! Thanks bruh!

[@compacheo603]

Love my 2018 sport 6speed 😎

[@xenosaiyan-8106]

How heavy is the steering feel in normal mode?

[@Seramics]

2:11 The side air scoop is functional, but its not for aerodynamic purposes. It is for the front disc brake cooling.

[@AdrianChiaa]

Seramics Thanks for the comment! You're absolutely right, some manufacturers like Porsche uses air curtains to cool the brakes. The Hyundai Elantra Sport on the other hand, is primarily for aerodynamic purposes as stated on their official website - www.hyundai.com.my/News-2017-06-09.aspx Although I believe that the air channelled may contribute to some form of cooling for the brakes. Cheers!

[@muhammadaliff3179]

Yandei...not shundai...but ur doing great...love it

[@anandsamy5194]

100 times better rear design compared to Civic.

[@faris.R56]

Good Review... Btw u look a bit like Nobita

[@speedzlow]

Maybe he really is

[@zerotohundred]

Good man Adrian

[@AdrianChiaa]

zerotohundred thanks ZTH! 😁

[@julietian2696]

Do a comparison video, civic 1.5 tc-p and elantra sport

[@tanyannhwa4831]

Adrian and GC, can you suggest some of the routes that is fun to drive, testing car capabilities and handling in west malaysia? perhaps countryside or twistiee whining roads? I would like to try of them during weekend. :D

[@fakhruimran6022]

Does it come with generous rebate like Kia gives for Cerato??

[@araiien]

Cerato got RM16k rebate bro!

[@fakhruimran6022]

Azraii Zulkiple serius la sampai 16k rebate Kia bagi??

[@adibkhld]

Weh, banyak jugak Kia Cerato punya diskaun sampai RM16k. Dasyat betul Kia ni!

[@fakhruimran6022]

Tak kisah la byk mana Kia nak bagi rebate at least kita customer untung.

[@adibkhld]

Fakhru Imran yups. Makin tinggi kia bagi rebate, makin untung customer. Tak kisah la beli waktu hujung tahun pun.

[@generalking6095]

Good one

[@boy638]

Where is the road you tested?

[@ahmadxhusni]

Wow nice one but does it have rebate like Kia Cerato?

[@adibkhld]

I dont think their rebate will go as high as Kia Cerato, which is RM16k!

[@hazobi]

the shot at 2:44 looks as if the car is humongous. or is the presenter a small guy? Also the Red leather interior makes it look very gaudy, they should have gone with black/grey/etc leather WITH red stitching. That way it makes it looks more premium. If there is an option, i would trade the seats from the executive version and put it in the sport. looks much better.

[@derekow5638]

hazobi not sure but I don't like Alcantara. It's not very practical in our Malaysian weather. I'm actually glad that they didn't put it in the sport version.

[@derekow5638]

hazobi but I do like the red leather. It gives the vibe of owning an American sports car.

[@screamao8841]

how abt the dct?a lot of people complain its jerky

[@TanvirAlif]

I love the D shaped steering wheel.

[@quebec_00]

Which c segment car do you guys think is the best interms of nvh and comfort ?

[@afiqjaffarran]

I want but too poor to afford this. Guess ill setlle with bezza for now 🙁

[@VacancyJB]

looks nice and powerful....but the door made by plastic remind me my iswara, really not a good material choice.

[@andrewwalla4877]

I absolutely agree on the hard plastics tho...Horrible

[@RajveerSingh-gg9uq]

The new Picanto is good though, they’re giving rebate too now

[@kelvinhii939]

Chassis is pronounced "che-see" not "chas-sis". Otherwise great review. Still prefer when GC Mah does the review though

[@AdrianChiaa]

Kelvin Hii I stand corrected, thanks Kelvin for pointing it out!

[@jesselogan92]

If I buy this car, I will change the Elantra emblem to Avante emblem to get more Kpop feels on it... haha

[@Neo.555]

Btw, that colour is Too Fast too Furious Evo Green :)

[@izzuadhassan7091]

I prefer Kia Cerato. And KIA is giving nice promo now.

[@adibkhld]

Itu lah, tak silap diskaun Kia bagi sampai rm16k!

[@domanicharris123]

You have a 200hp car in your hands, and the driving part was so mundane. SMH. This review feels like you took a bunch of pictures and turned it into a video.

[@hariharankrishnan3398]

Well done Mr.Chia,try to be more natural during the reviews...otherwise you did a great job!

[@lcsiew8875]

Never seen one on the road.. guess the price is too much to stomach

[@UZUMAKINARUTOGAY]

0928 : i heard "liar", haha...

[@Seramics]

I like your smart and polite style of presenting But I must correct your statement. 1:28 ES is not the most powerful C segment sedan money can buy! LMAO. What about BMW 3 series of C63 AMG for example? Its way more powerful I am sure. Its the most powerful car in its price point RM 130k+ segment, not in all category. Please dont make stupid statement like this.

[@AdrianChiaa]

Seramics Hey man thanks for the kind words, appreciate it! Apologies sir, but I think you have the segments mixed up: in Malaysia, luxury brands like examples you've given follow a different set of classification. BMW 3 Series and Mercedes-Benz C-Class fall under the category of "Compact Executive". For more information about vehicle segmentations in Malaysia you can refer to one of the most comprehensive buyers guide in Malaysia, www.Carbase.my. Cheers!

[@travischang5565]

I believe the 3 series is considered as a D segment. Nevertheless, compact executive will be more apt.

[@sesatin2dawell]

no it's not a D segment

[@cyrilleyong9615]

Lmao. Talk about reality check. BMW 3 and C-Class are compact executive. Google it before calling someone stupid.

[@Rndmaniacs]

I like this guy's reviews more than his sleepy face predecessor 😁

[@radinsyah1574]

Hmmm... 7.7s to the sprint is rather slow for a 201hp/265Nm don’t you think? I mean it’s a mere 1.2s faster than my enormous VW Sharan.

[@davidrobinson3148]

I live in New York at sea level and I get sub 6 second 0 to 60 time. It all depends on the altitude

[@izzuadhassan7091]

I prefer Kia more than Hyundai. With a lot of rebate too. Interesting!

[@johannessains]

proton should upgrade their cfe turbo engine

[@Nasxtye]

They're building the E01 engine.

[@davidwang1502]

Should close shop and return our tax

[@harshagowdagowda5815]

hy elantra sport best lookz

[@ArisSharif]

chassis

[@darnishidzhar]

I can’t understand why u compare with civic??? U compare with the base one or the TYPE R??? U know TYPE R is the best right???

[@meijikenbootes]

This, civic turbo (not type R, of course, duh), focus ecoboost, golf tsi, and probably, maybe, suprima s. these cars are in the same segment, of course you would compare within these. Not family-oriented vehicles with slightly more power to hyperhatch going around nurburgring and shite. Duh. I can't understand why would you even come up with such statement.

[@travischang5565]

I would think the Hyundai N30i would make a fairer comparison with the CTR.

[@joshuaimmanuel9864]

Its a C segment car ranging from 120-130k. If want to compare with Type R against a Hyundai it would be Hyundai I30N,Golf R, AMG A45 .Please do your research before vomiting nonsense of an eyesore.

[@eric8188]

It needs someone who do spirited driving to enjoy and review. Else unfair to this car. Gc mah should give this car a secord review.

[@pingshien91]

Hi, please take note. Hyundai is pronounced as Hee-onn-day. Not HUIN-DAY...

[@AdrianChiaa]

Hey Ping, apologies if my pronunciation is not up to standards. I used this video as reference: kzbin.info/www/bejne/i3nRhnRva9x6maM

[@pingshien91]

You don't look up to ANG MOH and see how to pronounce a KOREAN word. LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Check out this link instead. kzbin.info/www/bejne/maPUnXZprpqXfbM Tips for you, you look like a fresh grad, btw. When you want to look up something, look up the RIGHT person. For example, you don't look up to accountant to see how to cure your fever, you look for a DOCTOR instead.

[@AdrianChiaa]

The next person who pronounced Hyundai is a Korean girl. But thanks for the tip ✌️

[@pingshien91]

It's Hee-onn-day. Period. You call a spade a spade. 1+1 = 2. As simple as that

[@AdrianChiaa]

pingshien91 Thanks 👌

[@siggplus]

Step over la hyundai. Now orang semua go for kia. Better in terms of price dgn design

[@adibkhld]

siggplus haa betul. Sebab design Kia now makin competitive. Siap high discount lagin

[@siggplus]

Adib Khalid haah aku dah check dah so far kia punya end of year sale paling value for money. Rebate up to 16k wehh

[@adibkhld]

Fuh, power betul Kia ni bagi diskaun banyak2

[@shinohfilm838]

this Kimchi flavored sedan??ㅋㅋㅋ 너희나라는 무슨차 만드냐??

[@Moonface00z]

Even gc doesnt even bother to review this crap. I agree Know why the veloster turbo gets 50k discount ? Same gearbox also

[@esthervandyk3171]
