Hyundai

Korean budget car maker, with an ever-expanding range of models. Major bonus is the five-year warranty with every new car.

Hyundai Getz
Budget five-door supermini but not as clever as the Honda Jazz.

Hyundai Accent
A focus-sized saloon or five-door hatch, yours for Fiesta money.

1.3 CDX 5dr 1341cc
1.6 CDX 5dr 1599cc

Hyundai Trajet
One of the least expensive ways of carrying seven people around in no style. Destined for airport cab status.







2.0 GSi MPV 1997cc
2.0 CRTD GSI MPV 1991cc

Hyundai Elantra
Another domestic appliance-like Hyundai. Not a car you would consider for the way it looks or drives, even if it is moderately refined.







2.0 CRTD CDX 5dr 1991cc

Hyundai Sonata
Larger, slightly more comfortable minicab than the Elantra. Trouble is, you can buy a Kia version for considerably less money.

2.0 CDX 4dr 1997cc
2.7 V6 4dr 2656cc


Hyundai Coupe
Nissan Z-car on a budget. Looks decent enough and quite pleasant to drive, if not as lively as a Toyota Celica.






1.6 S Coupe 1599cc
2.0 SE Coupe 1975cc
2.7 V6 Coupe 2700cc

Hyundai Matrix
Cheaper five-seat alternative to a Renault/ Citroen Picasso. But not as good to drive, or sit in, or look at…







1.6 GSi MPV 1599cc
1.5 CRTD GSi MPV 1493cc
1.8 CDX MPV 1795cc

Hyundai Tucson
Yet another bland SUV from the Koreans.






2.0 16v GSI 4x4 1975cc
2.0 CRTD GSI 4x4 1991cc
2.0 16v CDX 4x4 1975cc
2.0 CRTD CDX 4x4 2656cc
2.7 V6 CDX Auto 4x4 2656cc

Hyundai Santa Fe
Quite cheaply priced family sized compact sports utility vehicle that should be better built than it is.

2.4 GSI 4x4 2351cc
2.0 CRTD GSI 4x4 1991cc
2.7 CDX Auto 4x4 2656cc

Hyundai Terracan
A mid-sized budget sports utility vehicle. Disappointing in lots of ways.

2.9 CRTD 4x4 2900cc


Awards
Elantra won bronze in the ETA’s eco awards.
Getz voted 2003 Scottish Small Car of the Year by ASMW.
