现代近日透露,将在今年11月举行的洛杉矶车展发布下一代伊兰特。从率先披露的图片看,新一代伊兰特采用了渐进式改款,包括细窄的后视镜盖,向后延伸的前大灯,垂直LED日间行驶灯和硕大蜂巢格栅,与现代家族其他车型形成横向亲缘性。而从内装图片看,车厢内装设计平平,不过,高端版本有望更出彩。预计该车将搭载1.6升四缸涡轮增压汽油引擎,功率129千瓦/176马力,标配六速手动并可选装七速双离合器变速器。由于美规车型将在洛杉矶车展发布,而韩版车将早几个月发布,上市时间则要等到明年一季度了。
Next generation Hyundai Elantra coming to 2015 Los Angeles Auto Show in November
A Hyundai spokesperson told AutoBlog the next generation Elantra will premiere in November at the Los Angeles Auto Show.
Billed as being an all-new model, the next Elantra has been caught on camera numerous times by our spy photographers while last month a fully revealing unconfirmed image of the model hit the web. The compact vehicle is set to adopt an evolutionary design with slender mirror caps, sweptback headlights and a large hexagonal front grille in line with Hyundai's recent models.
It will also receive vertical strips of LED daytime running lights while based on yesterday's interior spy shots, the cabin will be a little bit mundane, but hopefully it will look better on a higher specification model.
Details about the engine lineup are scarce at the moment, but chances are Hyundai will offer the next-gen Elantra with the 2016 Tucon's four-cylinder, 1.6-liter turbocharged gasoline motor developing 176 PS (129 kW) which will likely work with a standard 6-speed manual gearbox and an optional 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
Taking into account the US-spec model is bound to show up in November in L.A., chances are the KDM-spec model will be revealed a few months earlier. Deliveries of the new Elantra are likely programmed to begin in the first quarter of 2016.
