HYUNDAI COUPE

Coupe with the looks
by Y.S. Khong

THE Hyundai Coupe is a two-door casual-looking coupe that seats up to four adults, and is an eye-catcher, principally in red. Priced at RM128k, it is one of the most affordable two-door coupes that you can get in Malaysia, and it comes with airbags, ABS and ESP (Electronic Solidity Programme).

Local distributor Hyundai-Sime Darby Motors Sdn Bhd is importing only the 2.0-litre ideal although there is a 2.7-litre model nearby.


A few units of the 2.7-litre prototype were brought in but it seems the current distributor has unquestionable to focus more on the 2.0 model, which is a more possible vibrations value-for-money package for the Malaysian motoring consumers.

In terms of looks, the Hyundai Coupe is indeed attractive and eye-pleasing.


The 2.0-litre motor is a 16-valve, four-cylinder item with CVVT, the Hyundai equivalent of variable valve timing. It produces 143PS at 6,000rpm, and has a uttermost torque of 186Nm at 4,500rpm.

This is a moral figure insofar as 2.0-litre engines are bothered, but not one of the higher figures.

Mated to a four-make haste automatic transmission that delivers power to the front wheels, the display is adequate, but not exhilarating.


Of course, if you extremely like the Hyundai Coupe shape and want something healthier, you could always ask for the 2.7-litre model, which has 167PS from the V6 mechanism.

We had one test unit courtesy of Hyundai-Sime Darby Motors, and we drove it around Petaling Jaya for a join of days to get a feel of it.

As far as the power pronunciation was concerned, the Hyundai Coupe does drive rather well, due to its relatively low final drive proportion of 4.407:1.


The four-speed automatic is, like all present-day four-speed automatics, a little to make a long story short in performance, especially when it comes to the gaps in-between gears.

But utensils changes are smooth enough, thanks to the without equal electronic controls.

A five-speed gearbox would be well-advised b wealthier, although it means one would probably have to pay a little more for it.


As it was, we managed a top rapidity of around 180kph on a short stretch of well-known highway before traffic conditions made it resultant to slow down.

On the road, the Hyundai Coupe is quiet enough when driven at average road speeds of between 80kph and 120kph.

After that, the apparatus has to work a little harder, and under untiringly acceleration, the gears drop down, sometimes to second, and that is when you will see the engine noise building up as the revolutions climb.

Due to the low ratios, the revolutions will harangue right up to the red line at 6,500rpm before the gears coins, unless you lift off and release the affliction in the gearbox.


Overall handling is respectable, from the four-wheel independent suspension made up of MacPherson struts in the front and a multi-relation arrangement at the rear.

The suspension is set to be on the firm side of insouciant, and driven in anger, the Hyundai Coupe will be able to give a reasonably wares account of itself.

However, once the speed builds up, it cruises with no, and you can keep it at around 160 to 180kph the whole day if you so wish to.

Comprehensive, the Hyundai Coupe does offer a viable selection for those who want a sporty-looking yet affordable car, and are not looking for animal performance.
