Photos of the new Hyundai Creta 2019
Exterior
The design of the new Hyundai Creta 2019 model year is made in the current style of the brand and is a bit like a smaller version. In general, the car looks modern and, looking at its appearance, you cannot say that there is a budget model in front of you, especially since it is like this only in basic trim levels.
Even in such a "kid" the front part is distinguished by an aggressive look, primarily because of the head optics. The latter follows the current trend, creating the visual effect of evil eyes.
Between the headlights of the Hyundai Greta is a nice hexagonal grille, covered with three chrome horizontal strips of complex shape and a small manufacturer's logo in the center. Below we have another narrow slit of the second grille, and on the sides in special slots there are trapezoidal fog lights.
The crossover profile betrays Asian origin, it's hard to say how this is expressed, but you can see it right away. The side of the Hyundai Creta 2019 is characterized by a rising shoulder line, narrowing the glass line with the front and center pillar in black. The bonnet is slightly lowered down and the tailgate is raised, a raised line is made at the level of the door handles, and a small spoiler is visible at the rear.
A similar story with the rear of the car - everything is simple and without any "frills". Spoiler with integrated brake light on top, wide tailgate dividing rather large lights in half, right in the center of the manufacturer's logo. In general, the relief is minimal.
Interior
The Korean automobile company Hyundai has decided to please its fans with new models, most of which will appear in Russia. Today we will talk about the new 2018-2019 Hyundai products, and in particular about their prices and the date of appearance on the domestic market.

Hyundai Creta
Soon, another novelty of Hyundai 2018 is expected to appear - the Creta SUV. According to representatives of the company, the new product will definitely not disappoint motorists, because the developers have carefully studied all the shortcomings of the predecessor and eliminated them in the updated version of the SUV.
As for the exterior, it is immediately clear that Creta belongs to the friendly family of Hyundai crossovers and is very similar in style to Santa Fe and Tussan. main reason lies in the fact that in the design of the appearance of these cars, one interesting concept was used, called "liquid sculpture".
The interior of the novelty is not much different from its predecessor, and can offer a stylish and unobtrusive design. There is enough free space in the cabin for the driver and passengers. And the quality of the finish is quite good.
The line of power plants includes two gasoline units with a volume of 1.6 and 2.0 liters, cooperating with 6 automatic transmissions and 6 manual transmissions.
The release date of the car in Russia is spring 2018. The initial cost is 800 thousand rubles.
Hyundai Santa Fe
Of course, everyone remembers the old man Santa Fe, who should go through another update next year. Car enthusiasts are already wondering if the developers have managed to improve the already excellent safety system, which has been recognized more than once as the best in the segment.
As for the exterior, despite the fact that the design of the car has become fresher and more progressive, it has not lost the main features of the lineup. The developers are confident that their bet on an aggressive and dynamic appearance will appeal to fans.
The designers of the company did not confirm the skeptical assumptions of critics, and decorated the interior of the novelty in a very bright and innovative style. Overall, it can be noted that the interior layout of Santa Fe 2018 has risen to a whole new level. And the confirmation of this is the readable and informative dashboard, ergonomic seats and fantastic finishes.

The start of sales in the domestic market is scheduled for this fall. The minimum cost is 1 700 thousand rubles.
Hyundai Solaris
Probably every domestic motorist has heard of Hyundai Solaris at least once. And this is not surprising, because the company's marketers have done a great job and made the car popular among all age groups and categories. Recently, a presentation of the updated version of Solaris 2018 took place.
Compared to its predecessor, the car has outwardly become more solid and representative. In a word - Solaris 2018 has matured noticeably.
As for the salon, the designers have designed it in a laconic, but no less striking style. Each part of the interior is perfectly composed and in some way repeats the style of exterior decoration. Inexpensive, but high-quality materials were used for decoration, from which the developers made "candy".
The role of power units is performed by two gasoline engines with a volume of 1.4 and 1.6 liters, which have high efficiency -.
The debut on the Russian market is scheduled for this winter. The initial cost of Solaris 2018 is 600 thousand rubles.
Hyundai Sonata
The legendary business-class car Hyundai Sonata should undergo modernization next year and appear before motorists in the form of a 4-door sedan.
From the photo of the novelty, it can be seen that the developers still relied on solidity and representativeness, but also added a little sportiness, most likely in order to attract the attention of younger age groups.
The interior of the novelty has not changed much compared to its predecessor, but the Sonata 2018 interior should become more spacious and ergonomic. Car enthusiasts should be pleased with a wide range of basic equipment.
As motors, two two-liter gasoline units and one 2.4-liter were proposed. They can cooperate with 6 manual transmissions and 8 automatic transmissions.
The start of car sales in Russia is scheduled for early next year. The estimated initial cost is 1,500 thousand rubles.
Hyundai Tussan
One of the most popular crossovers in Russia, the Hyundai Tussan, will soon undergo an update.
According to the photos of the novelty that have recently appeared on the network, it is noticeable that the exterior of the Tussan 2018 has become more aggressive and dynamic. In addition, there appeared the solidity that the predecessors lacked. Experts are confident that the new crossover will again regain itself leadership positions in domestic sales ratings.
The salon of the new Tussan, even in comparison with its predecessor, looks simply grandiose. It is noticeable that the developers paid special attention to this aspect, because everything is excellent - from the level of ergonomics to the layout of the center console.
The line of motors consists of two two-liter diesels. Most likely, there will be gasoline units, but there is still no information about them.
The start of sales on the Russian market is scheduled for the spring of 2018. There is no reliable information on the price yet.
New Hyundai products that will conquer the world in general and Russia in particular in the period of 2017 and 2018, we have collected in one place. For your comfort. So that you don't run anywhere else and look for anything else. So let's get down to them brief overview... Why hesitate? Go!
Let's start with a mini crossover. Koreans have already introduced their Creta all over the world. In Russia, it was shown at the Moscow Motor Show in 2016. The model used to be called ix25, aka Cantus. In principle, it can already be bought in the Russian Federation, and therefore the car is considered a full-fledged novelty of the 2017 model year. Economical, safe, powerful, stylish, functional.
Buy Creta on site Russian Federation you can for 750,000 rubles.
Hyundai Solaris
During 2017, it will be possible to purchase a brand new Solaris in car dealerships in Russia. Elegant, comfortable and safe. With advanced technology. The car has long become familiar to many Russian motorists, and therefore everything that they lacked so much before appeared in the update. A large list of proposed options for improved interaction and rich technical characteristics for its class.
The cost of the updated Solaris model in Russia is set at a little over half a million rubles.
Hyundai Genesis
Also in 2017, a brand new Genesis will be delivered to Russia. Genesis, if you like. In general, a business-class sedan. Premium sports if you like. In general, now Genesis is a sub-brand of Hyundai. Four-wheel drive sensations, how can you describe the model in a nutshell. Okay, three. And even more than that. I mean, a lot more sensations. Passionate design with majestic virtues. People made a great gift to their own kind.
It will be possible to buy it for oneself for oneself for only 2.5 million rubles.
Hyundai i30 / Hyundai i30
Hatchback of the Korean company. However, there is also a station wagon. The new generation can be mastered by attending a car dealership during 2017. There are changes: for example, the style is emphasized. Earlier, some drivers complained about a certain "uncertainty" in appearance. This seems to be all right now. Improved technical data. Compactness along with the necessary set of functions.
The issue price is up to 1 million rubles.
Hyundai Tucson / Hyundai Tucson
Hyundai Tucson. A compact crossover in demand around the world. In 2018, look forward to an update. The novelty, according to journalists, should please fans with a large set of changes that have occurred with its predecessor. For example, luxury. Well, this is somehow superficial. Agree. If we dig deeper, we will see the increased aggression of appearance due to the processing of elements of lighting technology. Elegantly designed front bumper. Something like that, yes. In general, the courage of engineers is visible to the naked eye.
You can thank them for this with an amount equal to 1.5 million rubles.
Hyundai Santa Fe
Looking forward to 2018. Then, according to insider information, an updated mid-size Korean crossover will go on sale. In Russia too. Note that this model, generally speaking, enjoys considerable consumer demand. In the future, it will undergo changes mainly in terms of design. More expressiveness, more sport. Less roughness. Well, that's understandable. Massiveness entered the trend.
Increased opportunities will not be followed by higher prices per se. In Russia updated crossover will be offered at a price of up to 2 million rubles.
Hyundai Santa Cruz / Hyundai Santa Cruz
Another Santa. This is a concept. It probably went on sale in 2018. It is planned that it will be available on the Russian market as well. Half crossover, half pickup. And the Koreans have taken Tucson as a basis, if you are interested. So imagine what happened in the end. Better yet, just take a look at the photo. Who needs it? It is not clear yet. How to position? The Korean brand's management thinks.
It is planned that the cost of a crossover pickup truck will reach 1.5 million rubles, and it is possible that it will be set even higher. Would you buy?
Hyundai is planning to promote its miniature SUV in 2018. In general, when this trade term is mentioned, a kind of massiveness immediately pops up in my head. In fact, the Koreans want to make a kind of knight's move. The crossover - and so it is also positioned - in size will be even smaller than the compact Crete. The concept, as follows from inside information, has already received approval from the company's management. This means that soon something really new awaits us.
For "truly new" the consumer will have to pay a little less than 1 million rubles. Approximately.
Hyundai Elantra / Hyundai Elantra
Few news on the Web can now be found on a topic that directly relates to the update of this "average", but still the fact of their any presence makes us mention it. In 2018, Elantra will be transformed. In general, it will become sleeker than its predecessor. The designers worked on several ambiguous points at once, which were negatively received by fans in the context of the release previous version... Also, cars will add power. Enough of this, do you think?
Elantra, aka i35, in its new incarnation will cost the buyer about 1 million rubles.
Hyundai Santro
Koreans are slated to revive the Santro in 2018. Presumably, a lot will change in it. Actually, for this, according to rumors, they stopped production for a certain time. There is information that the development of a new generation is already underway in the company’s camp. And this hatchback will be replaced by another - i10, which, in fact, once replaced Santro. These are the events that happen among Asians.
By the way, you might also know the car as Atos. His new version in Russia will be sold at a price of about half a million rubles. Quite possible.
Two new Hyundai SUVs
It is likely that one of them hides the same miniature SUV that we mentioned earlier in the text. However, not a fact. According to rumors, Hyundai executives are planning to release two new SUVs for 2018. However, compact. Small if you like. Again, as we are talking about an SUV, images of "giants" immediately appear in my head. It seems. In general, we are waiting.
It seems that the price of each will be set at 1 million rubles. Perhaps + - a couple of hundred thousand.
If you are, so to speak, indifferent to the release of two new Hyundai SUVs, then the news regarding the company's electric crossover seems to interest you. Engineers are already working on improvement issues batteryused as the main source of energy. According to rumors, it will be liquid-cooled. Unlike the Ioniq, where it is installed air cooling, liquid will improve the mileage of the crossover, which has taken over all the delights of the Intrado.
The price of an electric crossover Hyundai, similar to the Intrado concept, in Russia will be about 2 million rubles. Expected. Sales will most likely begin closer to the summer of 2018.
In 2018, a hydrogen crossover is likely to go on sale in Russia. The car has already been named: Tucson Fuel Cell. There is information that main feature such a punishment will be his ability to pass (drive, if you like) half a thousand kilometers road surfaceusing only a small supply of charge for this. Agree, it's impressive.
And here's another "impression" for you: the process of replenishing what is necessary for proper functioning vehicle the supply of hydrogen will take a couple of minutes from your strength. The operation of the power unit is based solely on the combustion of water.
However, the tests continue. Insiders are trying hard to please the public with important information in advance. Let's wait for the official statements of the company representatives.
The approximate price of a Tucson Fuel Cell hydrogen car in Russia will be at least 2 million rubles.
New Hyundai 2017-2018: which "Korean" is the best?
Which "Korean" is better, you ask? Perhaps, each has a lot of advantages. You are better off based on your own vehicle preferences. What you want to see in it, then look for it. Found - feel free to buy. If, of course, what you have found meets your expectations and capabilities in full.

Hyundai history
The firm was founded 49 years ago by Jung Joo-yeon. Previously, the company was part of the Hyundai Motor Group, but 13 years ago it was taken out of there. In the sixties, the company produced a couple of cars and one cargo model American brand Ford. Since 1972, the company, along with three other firms, received permission from the government to produce cars. So since 1974, the development of the Hyundai Pony runabout started, the appearance of which was dealt with by the specialists of the Italian studio. Until 1980, the company began to produce 50 thousand cars per year. The first generation of the famous Sonata sedan appeared in 1988, and eight years later the Coupe sports car was born.
Eighteen years ago, the company acquired another Korean concern, Kia Motors. Since 2000, Hyundai entered into a strategic agreement with DaimlerChrysler, which was valid for several years. According to data from ten years ago, the plant in Ulsan, which consists of 5 production facilities, was called the largest in the world.
The company is a part of Hyundai Kia Automotive Group, its shareholders with a total share of more than 26 percent are the developer of automotive components Hyundai Mobis and NPF of South Korea. The company has many factories in the country, as well as Turkish, North American, Chinese, Indian, Czech, Russian and Brazilian factories.

Hyundai i30 2017
Redesigned from scratch new car , follows in the footsteps of the i20 variant in its styling. But the model is bigger, prettier and sportier. The massive organic lines of the previous generation are already in the past, they are replaced by a design that includes sharper elements that add a touch of aggressiveness. At the same time, the hatchback still has traditional short overhangs, its engine hood is larger due to the movement of the front struts back. The new hexagonal grille is sportier with a new mesh and is flanked by three LED headlight projectors at an angle to the front. Triangular side of bumper includes air intakes, vertical LED daytime running lights running lightsand the center piece under the grille is split-shaped.
The side view shows the sloping roofline, its pronounced character runs directly under the windows, and you will also see darkened B-pillars and rearview mirrors. A thin notch above the side skirts gives the vehicle a sophisticated design. There are three wheel options available with the new hatchback: 15-inch steel alloys available in standard configurationbut customers can choose other 10-spoke wheels in any 16 or 17-inch size.
The rear of the car received LED taillights, a redesigned tailgate with a black spoiler on top, and a beefy bumper that, unlike other designs, has its own additional headlights that are only installed under the tailgate. While the bumper is somewhat unconventional, it gives the hatchback a unique look, helping it stand out from other offerings in this segment.
The redesigned body is not only in appearance. After careful testing of the car, it was possible to come up with a drag coefficient of 0.30, which is a very impressive figure for a hatchback.
The I30 will be available in a very rich selection of enamel colors, namely twelve colors. Engine Red and Polar White will be the standard solid colors, while the rest of the palette will be metallic and pearlescent. The metal picks will include:
- Demitasse Brown;
- Intense Copper;
- Moon Rock;
- Fiery Red;
- Platinum Sliver;
- Ara Blue and White Sand.
The pearl picks will be Stargazing Blue, Micron Gray, Phantom Black.
The next generation of the new Hyundai 2017 will be born with a new generation design known as Fluidic Sculpture 2.0. The front fascia receives a completely redesigned front grille. It is sporty in a hexagonal shape with an aggressive diamond-shaped look and a Hyundai logo in the center. The front grille is illuminated with a chrome accent. The headlights of the next generation of the car have also undergone changes. The new headlights have a sharp look and come with integrated LED daytime running lights. The lower front fascia looks aggressive and stylish, which is no doubt a good thing. It gets a wide air intake with an unusual cut of sharp LED fog lights at both ends.
The side profile has sharp sporty lines running from the characteristic part behind the front fender to the taillights. The side profile is similar to the previous Verna generation, except for the redesigned C-pillar. Wheel arches look huge along with sports alloy wheels... Also on the sides are integrated side mirrors, a blackened glass area and a beautifully curved roofline that adds elegance to the car's design. The roof line runs almost to the very end of the rear of the model. The rear profile receives around streamlined sharp lights, notches and folds, a spoiler on the top of the trunk lid, and shark fin-style antennas.
In terms of dimensions, the next generation of the model will receive a 2600 mm wheelbase, which will be 30 mm longer than the Fluidic Verna. In general, the car has a length of 4 meters 380 millimeters, a width of 1 meter 728 millimeters, a height of 1 meter 460 mm and a clearance of sixteen centimeters. The body has thus become 5 millimeters longer and 2.8 centimeters wider, the height has not changed, as already mentioned, the wheel base has become larger, which will make the car more comfortable in the second row. The sedan, depending on the level of assembly, will receive steel and light-alloy fifteen-inch wheel disks with 185x65 tires, and sixteen-inch light alloy wheels with 195x55 tires.
In general, the car received a modern exterior, which is made in the best traditions of the Korean company, thanks to which the four-door sedan resembles a smaller version of Elantra and Sonata. Perhaps a significant difference is visible only in size.
Much of the new 2017 Hyundai car departs from the i20 variant, the model has a more sporty emotional appearance. At the same time, the engine hood and headlights are identical to the previous model, the bumper and main grill have been redesigned to give the car a sporty appearance. The radiator grille no longer resembles the familiar trapezoidal design, it is now wider at the top and already at the bottom it is distinguished by curved side lines. The firm calls this design a cascading grille, this new feature is making its debut on the i10 and will soon be seen on others. hyundai models, in particular the i30.
Other notable additions are new, round LED daytime running lights around the edges and revised side vents that extend further towards the grille and include smaller fog lamps with chrome bezels. Finally, the thin grille between the headlights is more cumbersome.
Around the rear, changes include a revised bumper with a large black center section and circular rear fog lights. Everything else remains unchanged in regards to the stern, but the black bumper trim makes a significant difference and gives the i10 a heavier outward stance. The hatch is rounded off by redesigned side moldings, and new sets of 14-inch steel and alloy wheels are also available.
The changes are less noticeable inside the car, but customers will immediately see the large, seven-inch touchscreen display in the center of the dashboard and that there is a new red clotch upholstery available. Speaking about the color, we note that blue and black interior colors can be obtained with any level of interior equipment, and not only in more expensive versions.
While the overall style has remained the same, there is big news in the tech department. The small hatchback comes with latest features Hyundai connectivity, including Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and the navigation system has a seven-year free LIVE subscription, offering real-time traffic conditions, weather and a host of other attractions. This makes the i10 the only vehicle in its class to offer the aforementioned apps along with LIVE services in a single infotainment system. Pretty impressive!
On the outside of the new car, there are some design features that are borrowed from the G90, such as the front grille, for example. It has the same shape and size, with horizontal slats running from one side to the other. It also gets the same LED fog lights and corner-seated dashboard air intakes. The overall design of the front is quite different. A chrome insert flows from the inner point of the fog lamps to create a C-shape around the lamp and crosses the bezel under the grille. This insert substantially separates the corner inlets from the air intake below.
The headlights are also of a different design. Compared to the G90, they are not so long, while recessed into the body a little more forward. They also feature a 90-degree bend from the outside, the bottom corner is sharper on the inside and sits closer to the grille than at the top.
The bonnet has some defining lines towards the outer edges and the Genesis logo is positioned above the grille, we will see even more interesting points on the side. First, we won't be seeing the fender gill that was introduced in the New York concept car, it's actually a relief. This car would look rather odd with this design. There is a clear body line that runs from the outer point of the headlights to the rear of the vehicle. The line of symbols starts off thin, but gets sharper as you move further up the wing. It eventually goes through the door handles and ends at the bottom of the taillight. Below is a small recess in the body with a chrome-plated body liner attached to the underside of the fender and both doors.
The rear of the G80 is defined by the oddly shaped taillights, which are sharply positioned on the tailgate and have backlight running along the entire length of the lower edge. The rear quarters and the luggage compartment lid create an integrated fin element. At the bottom with a black insert there are double exhaust pipesproviding the car with a floating appearance. Long, slender reflectors sit above the tailpipes, and separate body lines on the sides of the rear fascia create a complete sculptural look. In general, a very good exterior, which makes the model undoubtedly an attractive proposition from Hyundai.
Hyundai Ioniq 2017
When the company released just a few photos of the new 2017 Hyundai auto, it was more than enough to confirm that the car is not as aggressive as the renderings of the model. However, you can't say that the car has a dull design. Hybrid and sporty, on the contrary, it got a pretty interesting look, mixing the brand's latest styling cues with the focused design of the Toyota Prius and Honda Insight. By the way, look at the site for all the details about the business.
The Ioniq has a similar shape and size, short overhangs, a hatchback-like rear end and tall rear fenders. On the other hand, it has a more conventional front end and windshield compared to the Prius, which makes the car look less weird than other Hyundai products. In addition, the sports hatchback received a profile piece separate from other hybrid models.
Designed for maximum aerodynamic efficiency, the Ioniq uses external panelswhich are designed for improved bending characteristics of the body. The function improves aerodynamics and, when combined with other solutions, produces a class-leading Cd value of 0.24.
The model also has a more upscale look than its direct competitors, thanks to the balanced combination of black accents and chrome trim on the lower window and two-tone wheels. Sure, these features are likely to be available on more expensive trim levels, but it's good to have the option to order a build like this and not necessarily have to settle for a unitary look across the spectrum. In general, the car is a fresh offer in this segment and most likely the model will compete with the Chevrolet Volt.
When Hyundai released the first teaser of the interior image, one might think that the production version would not be as interesting. It turns out not, as the actual interior looks a lot like the renderings, featuring the same dashboard, a similar center stack arrangement, an identical flat-bottomed steering wheel instrument cluster, and even bright blue accents. The only thing that distinguishes production model apart from the rendering, it is the center console, which has several buttons and switches. Despite this, the project remains attractive and by no means chaotic, which makes the car complete in every sense.
Hyundai Genesis G90 2017
The exterior of the new 2017 Hyundai auto model introduces a new design style called Athletic Elegance. The sedan was built on a new platform from the Prestige Design Division, which promises to expand the project to five new Genesis branded models slated for the end of the decade.
The G90 is truly an elegant and sporty sedan. Significantly more refined than the big but rather boring exterior of the Equus, the car is also very sporty for its size. The front fascia has received the massive radiator grille and similar daytime running lights that are prominent in the Genesis versions, but everything else has been reorganized to give the sedan a premium look.
In the presence of LED headlights that extend to the sides, an impressive chrome insert, muscular bumper and fender, as well as a company badge above the grille. Long bonnet, retains the clean lines of Genesis.
The car's profile, unlike anything else, was designed by Hyundai with an eye on today. The G90 has a high body line, muscular rear elements, large wheels and a serious glass area for the rear doors. Rear glass, a short luggage compartment hood and vertical taillights give the car a unique look in the luxury segment. While the car is massive like the Spur Bentley Flying, it is incredibly sporty and elegant for Hyundai.
In terms of dimensions, the model is 4.3 centimeters longer and 1.5 centimeters wider than the Equus. Until new sedan marginally larger than its predecessor, its wheelbase is 11.4 centimeters longer, reflecting the firm's efforts to improve comfort and roominess.
Much like the exterior, the interior is a significant departure from the Equus. While the latter was quite luxurious for Hyundai, it was inferior to most of its competitors in terms of soft-touch materials, workmanship of fit and finish. The G90 comes with a redesigned interior that features superior ergonomics, improved materials and an elegant color palette.
The cabin is much more modern compared to the Equus, which looked a bit dull even when compared to previous generation S-class. The new design combines Italian and nappa materials, and the rear is upholstered in wood, contrasting stitching, and polished aluminum accents.
The new generation of Hyundai cars of the 2017 series receives a complete restyling, making the crossover bolder and more upscale. Besides the obvious external changes coverage of the Euro-American specification, Tucson, which debuted in New York, is identical to the one that debuted in Geneva.
At the front, the developers have added the already traditional element in the form of a hexagonal radiator grille with vertical slats. On the top of the new grille, the entire fascia has a more vertical appearance, and the lower apron gets a set of horizontally oriented fog lights that help give the model a wider look. The LED headlights also contribute to this element, as does the fender, and the lower bumper adds a sporty silhouette.
From the profile, you will notice that the A-pillar is pushed back compared to the 2015 model. This adds some separation between the bonnet and the A-pillar, helping to lengthen its appearance. In addition, a sharp, upward accent line starts from the front wheel arch and eventually meets the outside of the taillight.
At the rear, slimmer taillights and a redesigned lower bumper door continue the more mature theme of the small SUV.
Overall, Hyundai has brought the crossover up to date with the rest of its lineup. Compared to the same Sonata, the car boasts a more refined design, such changes can only mean that Tucson is moving in the right direction.
The car's interior also receives a complete restyling. Hyundai has created a more premium interior with soft-touch materials and, upon customer request, in Wine Red leather. Salon Tucson more than the previous model, with more passenger space and available cargo space. The previous version offered 2,885 liters of passenger space and 727 liters of cargo volume with seats and up to 1,580 liters with the rear seats folded down. The new model improves performance to 2,893 liters of passenger volume, 877 liters of rear cargo space and a maximum cargo capacity of 1,752 liters.
Hyundai has also given the dashboard a different look, with the touchscreen now housed in a metal rim with air vents on the sides, and a redesigned and more premium HVAC control interface.
Designers for the new 2017 Hyundai auto model have taken a decidedly more upscale approach despite budget segment... The car still carries its familiar shape, but every body panel and angle is new. The larger grille becomes more aggressive, with HID headlights on both sides lED headlights daylight. The LED fog lights are low and vertical, giving the vehicle a unique look.
The sculptural features of the bonnet feature accented lines that run along the A-pillars at the bottom beneath the side mirrors. Another accent of the line starts at the front fender and above the door handles, ending at the taillights. The deep scallop along the bottom of the door helps give the lower third of the vehicle a sculptural design.
At the rear, LED taillights with slim fittings make the car unmistakable at night. The bumper and lower black fascia are not as impressive as the front, but their shape still complements the car perfectly. The premium look continues with 17-inch alloy wheels and chrome trim.
In addition to aesthetics, the new look also improves aerodynamics, dropping the drag coefficient to 0.27. The car is also built with higher strength steel than before, making the chassis more rigid than the previous model. In fact, the vehicle is 53 percent high-strength steel. As a result, it is 29.5 percent torsionally stiffer and has 25.3 percent higher ultimate flexural strength. These statistics result in an improved ride with the highest level of handling characteristics and a quieter cabin.
Inside, the designers have destroyed the old interior in favor of something similar to the interior of the Sonata. The dashboard contains several rectangular segments, including a gauge cluster and an infotainment display area. Not only has the dashboard improved, the car is larger as a whole. The Elantra gets wider and longer by two and a half centimeters in both directions, while gaining more interior volume than before. In fact, the car should technically be classified by the EPA as a midsize sedan thanks to its 3,120 liters of interior volume.

Those who actively follow car noveltiesknow that 2017 turned out to be very productive for many companies. The Korean giants were no exception. In this article, we'll talk about the new 2017 Hyundai crossovers. Let's discuss the main advantages and main aspects separately for each model.
Hyundai Tucson
Photo: Hyundai Tucson Hyundai Tussan is deservedly considered one of the most popular Korean crossovers. World fame for the car was brought by its witty name, which it owes to a small American town, which is located in the desert. Many experts believe that this is a very subtle and successful move of the company's marketers.
The debut of the model took place in 2004. After that, in 2009 and 2015, the next two generations of Tussan were presented.
And finally, at the beginning of 2017, the long-awaited restyling of the car took place. The new crossover has received a more sporty and sophisticated appearance when compared to the pre-styling version.
In general, the exterior of the new product was significantly redesigned, and, according to Hyundai representatives, Tucson 2017 raised the company's prestige to a new level. You may not agree with this, but no one will definitely turn their lips to say that the updated car will be something worse than its predecessor.
The salon of the new Tussan has become more spacious. Of course, there were no problems with this before, but the developers decided not to stop there, and continue to impose the struggle on European competitors.
As for the drive system, the creators offered a choice of two options - front and full. The line of motors consists of two gasoline, and three diesel units, which work with a six-speed manual transmission, and the same "automatic".
The cost of Tucson in basic configuration is 1,090,000 rubles. For the most pumped version you will have to pay 1,810,000 rubles.
Hyundai Grand Santa Fe

Now it's 2017, and the current version bears little resemblance to the debut version, but the main features of the model are still visible.
It should be noted that among the most significant changes should be highlighted the improvement of the security system. The body has received additional fastenings, and now the car can withstand a frontal impact at speeds up to 60 km / h.
At the first acquaintance with the appearance of the Grand Santa Fe 2017, it becomes obvious that the designers have made the main focus on the sportiness and aggressiveness of the interior. This is evidenced by numerous stampings, as well as massive crossover bumpers.
Traditionally for latest models Hyundai, the car interior has become more spacious. Also, the quality of the finish has improved to a large extent, especially with regard to the seats. Among other innovations, I would like to note the presence of 12 speakers and an air conditioner with automatic air ionization.
The role of power units is performed by a 2.2-liter diesel engine and a 2.4-liter gasoline engine.
There is no exact information on the price of the updated crossover yet, but most likely it will be 1,500,000-2,000,000 rubles.
The start of car sales is scheduled for this summer.
Hyundai Creta
Photo: Hyundai Creta One of the youngest crossovers of the Creta company, it began to be assembled in 2014. It is worth noting that the news about the imminent debut of the novelty caused a huge stir among motorists, and even before the official presentation, about 80,000 people had already applied for the purchase of the Cret.
In 2017, the car was restyled. As representatives of the company note, it was a forced move in order to raise the popularity of the model to its former ratings.
The appearance of the car has hardly changed, and only pinpoint interventions by specialists can be observed. Such passivity of designers in terms of the exterior can be explained by the fact that the appearance did not raise any questions even before restyling. I would only like to note the increase in the trunk lid, which had a positive effect on its spaciousness.
The salon of the novelty received a number of innovations, but still retained the main features of its predecessor. It is worth noting that dealers offer each customer individually to compose the interior of the Crete, so there is no need to fear that some element interior decoration may not suit you.
The company's engineers have seriously modernized the crossover suspension, and it is now perfectly adapted to domestic road conditions... As for the engines, a pair of gasoline and diesel units were proposed.
The minimum cost of Creta 2017 is 750,000 rubles. For the top-end configuration, you will have to pay - 970,000 rubles.
Car sales started at the end of 2016.
