The interior of the new Hyundai Elantra is refreshed with leather materials combined with metal details. However, the space is narrower than expected and lacks luxury accents. Most of the details are plastic, less glossy than the Hyundai style of a few years ago. The interior language is also unclear and inconsistent in terms of trends.

Hyundai Elantra has 2 engine options including Nu 2.0L gasoline engine and Gamma II 1.6L combined with 6-speed manual or 6-speed automatic transmission. Currently, a Hyundai Elantra costs from 590 - 720 million VND.

Honda City has a 1.5 SOHC i-VTEC 4-cylinder engine with a capacity of 118 horsepower at 6,600 rpm, maximum torque of 145 Nm at 4,600 rpm, enough for a small car to operate at 100 km/h or overtake at 80 km/h without any problem.

In particular, the gear ratio that Honda set for City shows its concern for fuel. Going steadily at 100 km/h, the engine speed is only about 1,800-2,000 rpm.

In the Vietnamese market, Honda City 2017 has a price ranging from 533 - 583 million VND/car.

Toyota Yaris 2016 has a youthful, strong, attractive style. The large trapezoidal radiator grille balances the front of the car with the harmonious combination of the radiator grille and the headlights extending to both sides creating a solid feeling.

A major change in the interior of the Toyota Yaris 2016 is the spacious interior, harmonious ceiling design and creating a comfortable, convenient feeling. This model uses a 1.3 liter engine (shared with Yaris in the Japanese market), 101 horsepower. With a 4-speed automatic transmission, electric power steering and fuel economy, this car line is very popular with women. This model also surprises with a price that is cheaper than expected by Vietnamese consumers.

Currently a Toyota Yaris costs 592 - 642 million VND.

Chevrolet Cruze

The impressive point of the new Chevrolet Cruze is that although the shape and size of the car is larger than the previous generation, the weight of the car has been reduced by 113 kg without using carbon fiber or other expensive materials. Thanks to the significant weight reduction, the car's fuel consumption is also much more economical. This change will certainly help the new Cruze to be more competitive compared to its competitors in the same segment.
