Time back to 10 years ago, when the Korean car scenery was unlimited, and it could make money lying in the Chinese market. However, feng shui turns, due to the rapid rise of independent brands coupled with the lack of attention to the Chinese market, products are arbitrarily reduced, differentiated treatment, resulting in a significant decline in sales of Korean cars in just a few years, many people even prefer to choose their own brands rather than choose Korean cars. However, this can not be generalized, and there are still several products on the market that are worth starting.
NO.1: Kia Jawa
Although Kia Kahua, which was listed domestically last year, was robbed of all the exposure by the Toyota Syna next door, although the popularity is not high, the product is still very good. With a length of more than 5.1 meters and a wheelbase of 3090mm, it is exactly a medium and large MPV level. The interior of the car adopts a 2+2+3 seven-seat layout, and the rear has heated seats, and the high-end also has leg rest and ventilation functions, so there is absolutely no problem with comfort.
In terms of practical configuration, the instrument's two 12.3-inch LCD screens, dual-car electric side doors, keyless entry, remote start and full-speed domain adaptive cruise are all standard in the series, even if you buy the most entry-level model, you will not feel that the configuration is not enough.
The most important thing is the price, The kahua guidance price is from 28.89-33.99 million yuan, which is much cheaper than the toyota race at the same level, and the comfort configuration is also more abundant.
NO.2: Modern Elantra
If your budget isn't too much, only about 120,000, then Elantra will be a good choice. First of all, the appearance design is more youthful and sporty, the body is streamlined, and the slipback roof looks more dynamic. Compared with corolla, Xuanyi, and Langyi, whose aesthetics have long been tired, Elantra seems to have a more advanced sense.
In terms of power, Elantra offers two engines, 1.5L and 1.4T, and I personally recommend choosing a naturally aspirated version, on the one hand, the CVT transmission is more smooth, and on the other hand, self-priming is better than turbocharging in terms of post-maintenance costs.
NO.3: Modern Kussuit
In addition to Jiahua, Hyundai Kustu was also listed together last year, and although the positioning is lower than Thathua, the price of Kustu has also fallen back to around 200,000.
The shape is different, the typical modern family design language, the side by a multi-segment waist line outlined into a rich layer of the body, the freshness is still there. There are sliding doors on both sides, but with the exception of the top with double-sided electric and entry-level double-sided manuals, the rest of the versions are electric and manual.
In terms of seats, it adopts a seven-seat layout of 2+2+3, and the two independent seats in the second row of high-end models support electric adjustment, and also set up a one-button lying flat function, which is simply a nap artifact. However, it should be noted that because the wheelbase is slightly shorter than that of Jawa, the legroom of the third row of seats can only be said to be decent, and there are not many surprises.
The power section is available in 1.5T and 2.0T engines, with maximum horsepower of 170 and 236 hp respectively, and the drivetrain matches the 8AT gearbox.
NO.4: Kia Kaiku
Kaiku's appearance is very young and sporty, and the Tiger Whistle grille connects with the headlights on both sides, further stretching the transverse visual effect. The interior also uses the popular dual screen design, which has an excellent sense of technology. But the biggest killer of this car is the price. The guidance price of 16.18-205,800 yuan is much lower than that of Japanese mid-size cars, and there are 20,000 discounts in the terminal market, and the gap is even more obvious.
In terms of power, it is available in two combinations of 1.5T+7 speed dual clutch and 2.0T+8AT, with maximum horsepower of 170 and 240 horses respectively.
NO.5: Genises G80
As a high-end car of Korean cars, the Genisei G80 is very recognizable in appearance, the shield grille adopts chrome weave design inside, and the headlights on both sides use a split design, and the parallel structure is very recognizable. The side of the year with a short front suspension long rear overhang design, looks more executive-grade sedan flavor.
The interior of the car uses a wrap-around cockpit design, the material is better than the BBA of the same level, the positions touched at hand are covered with leather, and the roof is also made of suede, and the luxurious atmosphere is quite prominent. The 12.3-inch LCD instrument + 14.5-inch floating touch screen create a good sense of technology.
In terms of power, it is equipped with a 2.5T turbocharged engine, a maximum horsepower of 304 hp, a peak torque of 422 Nm, and a transmission system matching an 8-speed automatic transmission.
summary
The above are 5 Korean cars that I think are still worth getting started, good product strength plus market terminal discounts, and the cost performance is still very good.
