The Hyundai Elantra is another offspring of the company’s latest ‘Sensuous Sportiness’ design language following the local launch of the all-new Hyundai Sonata at the end of October.
HSDM’s competitor for the Toyota Camry and Honda Accord is available in a single variant and is fully-imported from South Korea, with a price tag of RM206,888.
However, the Sonata is available at a special introductory price of RM189,888 for the first 50 units inclusive of the sales tax exemptions until the end of the year.
