At the front, the new Elantra stands out with its squinted headlights and hexagonal, chrome-plated grille. The front lighting system includes halogen headlights with Dynamic Bending Lights and unique vertical LED daytime running lights.


The sporty front bumper has not only a beautiful external form factor (?), but also thoughtful aerodynamics. Functional front "curtains" are integrated into it (we could see the same components on car Sonata hybrid), main function which was a change in the air flow directed away from the front wheels. This reduces turbulence and airflow resistance, which means less fuel is spent. In addition, the car has aerodynamic underbody protection and rear bumper, which has the same functions, it has an integrated lower spoiler. The trunk lid has a special shape. All together contribute to a decrease in drag to 0.27.

Elantra skillfully combines moderate rounded lines and sharply defined square accents, mainly used in the interior of the car. In addition to the false radiator grille, the side profile of the glass, taillights, and middle stampings of the trunk lid are distinguished by “squareness”.


Additionally, the important appearance of the Korean is emphasized by 17-inch alloy wheels, a door handle illumination system at night and LED turn signal repeaters in the exterior rear-view mirrors. High-tech LED taillights add a new level of sophistication and detail to this upscale compact sedan.

The 2017 Elantra will be offered in eight exterior colors, five of which will be new to the model. The overall length of the Elantra will increase by a little less than 25mm, its proportions will further increase by increasing the width of the sedan by the same 25mm, presenting a sportier appearance and a stable position on the road.

Modern Elantra interior design


Inside, the Elantra continues to feature a modern driver-focused design optimized for intuitive handling that is further improved in terms of roominess. It uses high quality materials and qualitatively new technologies.

Wide dashboard creates a feeling of spaciousness and is available with a 4.2-inch LCD color display that enhances user-friendliness and information for the driver. The central part of the panel is executed in a horizontal form using buttons and controls, collected in logical groups by function. For even more convenience, the controls are slightly tilted towards the driver.

Available, such as the segment's first driver's seat memory system with electronic control and the position of the side mirrors, dual automatic interior temperature control with automatic system defogger and auto-dimming rearview mirror for improved driver comfort.


The ergonomically designed front seats deserve special mention. They feature a high-quality lightweight frame that optimizes load in the event of a crash. Also, the seats are made of parts of different stiffness, which helps to reduce fatigue when driving long distances.

All Elantra seats, whether upholstered in fabric or leather, are made from SoyFoam™, an environmentally friendly foam that replaces obsolete polyol, providing best performance. For added comfort and convenience, all passengers can enjoy heated front and rear seats. For the convenience of transporting goods, the backrest rear seat splits in a 60/40 ratio.


The new Elantra also offers more overall interior volume with more room for rear passengers. The 2017 Elantra is classified as a mid-size car, a class above, and even some premium models.

To improve the comfort of passengers in the new sedan, noise insulation has been improved, including engine compartment which resulted in a noticeable reduction in the noise level in the cabin. Engineers also increased the thickness of the front door glass and placed sound-absorbing materials in all pillars, inner fenders and underbody.


Advanced and responsive chassis


The 2017 Elantra is not only lighter than the previous model, but its base is now reinforced with 53% high-strength steel compared to 21% for the previous model, providing increased rigidity with a lower body weight. The car is 29.5% more torsional stiffer and 25.3% more bending strong, which from a practical point of view will bring better handling, dynamics, durability and improved driving performance.

Increased ride comfort, handling and stability achieved through redesigned geometry rear suspension, in which the angle of inclination has changed rear shock absorbers and the position of the coil springs on the twin axle torsion beam has changed.

The Elantra's front suspension uses an optimally matched McPherson suspension with coil springs and gas dampers, along with a front stabilizer bar. roll stability, which will even more effectively reduce body roll when cornering. Standard Motor-Driven Power Steering (MDPS) adapts instantly to changing driving conditions for greater steering precision.

New efficient engine range


For the new model year The Elantra gets two completely new powertrains designed to improve fuel efficiency, performance and responsiveness at virtually any rpm.

Base engine available for american configurations SE and Limited - a 2.0 liter Nu MPI four-cylinder Atkinson cycle pumps out peak power of 147 hp. at 6.200 rpm and 179 Nm of torque at 4.500 rpm. As you can see, it does not shine with particularly outstanding data.

The 2.0-liter engine is paired with a standard six-speed mechanical box transmission or the next generation of the six-speed automatic box gear Elantra.


The second powertrain is Kappa's latest 1.4-liter four-cylinder GDI turbocharged engine. This engine produces 128 Horse power at 5.500 rpm and 211 Nm of torque spread from 1.400 to 3.700 rpm, the motor will be mated to a seven-speed EcoShift equipped gearbox double clutch. Fuel consumption according to Hyundai in the combined cycle is 6.7 liters. In life, of course, it will most likely be more.

Both engines feature a variety of friction-reducing and cooling-improving components, and highly efficient engineering solutions designed to improve fuel efficiency and maximize performance. In addition, all trim levels of the (US market) Elantra feature a new Drive Mode Select feature that adjusts both performance and power unit, and power steering, allowing the driver to customize the car's handling by selecting one of three modes: Eco, Normal or Sport, simply by pressing a button on the center console.

Security Complex in 2017 Hyundai Elantra

Hyundai Elantra is a mid-size car that has been in production since 1990. It received its last generational update in early May 2010. Since then, engineers have carried out one restyling, which made the car even more powerful and more aesthetically pleasing than it was before.

In Russia, the car is sold quite well. In its class, it has won the trust and love of consumers. We wondered if it was really as perfect as the owners describe it. And, as you know, the quality of the car depends on where the model is made. Therefore, we will figure out where the Hyundai Elantra is assembled and how it is produced.

Countries where cars are assembled from Hyundai

In general, the South Korean company Hyundai has a lot of plants around the world. The concern's engineers have ensured that their models have become recognizable and popular. Production is located on all continents of the world where Korean cars are sold. That is why the corporation shows such huge sales. But, most likely, the build quality, and not the number of factories, affects the popularity of cars.

Naturally, the first plant we will talk about is located in South Korea. Hyundai Elantra is assembled here in the town of Ulsan. The plant makes about two-thirds of the total volume produced by the company in a year. Some cars remain domestic market, but most are shipped overseas.

Hyundai Elantra is also produced in Turkey. The Hyundai factory in this country opened in 1998. It became the first enterprise that enterprising Koreans designed outside their own country. Today, one of the most powerful factories with huge production volumes is located here.

Until 2010, Elantra was assembled at the TAGAZ plant in Taganrog. As you already understood, we are talking about production in Russia. But, now the models are produced at Hyundai's own plant. It is called "Hyundai Motors Manufacturing Rus" and is located in St. Petersburg.

It is also worth mentioning the factories in America, Brazil, China, India and the Czech Republic. But, these productions make the Hyundai Elantra for the global market. They don't get to Russia. Therefore, we will leave the disassembly in their assembly to the Europeans and Americans, and we ourselves will understand the work of the engineers of those countries where this model is assembled for Russia.

The assembly of a model always depends on who assembles it. As mentioned above, the Hyundai Elantra has been in production since 1990. At that distant time, the car was delivered to us by sea from a factory in Ulsan. The South Korean assembly did not cause almost any complaints. Now in Russian car dealerships you can find about 60% of cars of this production. The rest of the cars were assembled here, first at the plant in Taganrog, and now in St. Petersburg.

In any case, Hyundai Elantra appeared in our country a year later than on the world market. But, on the one hand, it's very good. After all, it is in the first year of operation that all the visible shortcomings of the model appear.

Our engineers assemble the car according to all world standards, slightly adapting it to Russian roads. For example, they installed heated seats here, a warm steering wheel and slightly increased ground clearance. It rains all year round in Korea. Thus, the engineers installed on the car excellent rain sensors and glass, from which water quickly flows. Russian engineers did the same. Only this feature suits us more for snow.

In general, there are no comments either to the running gear or to appearance, nor to technical specifications Hyundai Elantra Russian assembly. Therefore, acquiring this car, you can not worry about its quality.

From the article you will learn where the main brands of cars are produced Hyundai Creta, Solaris, Tucson, Santa Fe, Elantra, IX35, I40, which of them are produced at factories in Russia, and which in other countries, but for our country.

The geography of production is expanding

Long gone are the times when certain brands of cars were produced in any one country.

Previously, Audi was produced only in Germany, Chevrolet - in the USA, Peugeot - in France, and so on.

But the geography of production is expanding, new plants are being built in other countries, demand is growing and, as a result, sales volumes are growing.

This approach allows you to saturate the market and provide everyone with cars.

Below we will dwell in more detail on Korean Hyundai cars, which are produced in many countries of the world (including Russia).

General information about Hyundai Motor

Hyundai Motor Company is a South Korean automobile manufacturer with a wide range of the lineup and widely known throughout the world.

The founder of the concern is Chung Zhu-Yong. It was he who opened the company in 1967, which initially was only part of a large project, and in 2003 became an individual unit.

Initially, Hyundai Motor focused on cars, but only one was produced freight car Ford.

Over the next thirty years, the company developed and expanded its scope of production. Already five years after the opening, the production of Hyundai cars started, and two years later the Hyundai Poini model appeared.

By the 80s of the last century, the production volume reached 50 thousand cars a year. In 1998, a significant event took place in the history of the company - Kia Motros was absorbed.

The name Hyundai is translated from Korean as "modernity". Actually, this word has become a motto for manufacturers who tried to embody new trends and trends in each model.

Sales figures

Hyundai Motor Company owns many car assembly plants not only in South Korea, but also in other countries of the world - the USA. Turkey, Czech Republic, Russian Federation, China and others.

Finished cars are distributed to thousands of car dealerships and sold to tens of thousands of people every day.

In 2010, the sales figure was almost 1.75 million cars, and the profit reached 32 billion.

In 2016, more than 145 thousand cars were sold (only in Russia). Generally speaking, this figure is ten times higher. On the territory of the Russian Federation, many models are assembled or were assembled - Sonata, Assent, Elantra, Santa Fe and others.

A major project was launched in 2007. It was then that it was possible to conclude an agreement on the construction of a Hyundai plant in St. Petersburg.

Already in 2010, the first cars rolled off the assembly line. The capacity of the plant was enough to produce about 200,000 cars annually.

In 2011, Solaris and Rio were assembled at the plant. Simultaneously with the plant in St. Petersburg, the production of component parts began, thanks to which already in 2010 Hyundai sales in Russia amounted to 87 thousand cars.

Hyundai Motor entered the hybrid market in 2004 with the introduction of the Click/Gets Hybrid.

A year later, the lineup was replenished with another "hybrid" - an offshoot of the Accent model.

Already in the first four years, about 800 Click hybrid cars were produced, and by the end of 2008, government agencies received about 3.4 thousand hybrids.

In which countries and where is the Hyundai Solaris assembled, factories in Russia

Hyundai Solaris is well known to domestic motorists.

Today it is produced in South Korea, Turkey, the USA and many other countries.

With the advent of the plant in St. Petersburg, it is also assembled in Russia. Before the opening of production, all lines were checked for the fact of the quality of the finished product and the absence of defects.

As soon as all the checks were completed, the production itself started.

A feature of the Hyundai Motor plant in Russia is a responsible approach to production and strict adherence to technology.

This is not surprising, because more than half a billion dollars were invested in the construction of the site.

A little earlier, similar factories were built in a number of other countries - in the United States, Turkey, the Czech Republic, India and others.

main feature plant in the Russian Federation consists in a full production cycle, when the entire assembly process takes place on the territory of one country, starting with the production of spare parts and ending with the adjustment of the electronic components of the machine.

There are workshops on the territory of the plant where spare parts are manufactured, as well as welding, assembly and painting of the machine.

There is also a stamping workshop, in which special attention is paid to product quality.

An important feature of the Hyundai Motor plant in Russia is the emphasis on process automation. This figure reaches 80 percent, which allows us to speak with confidence about the quality and reliability of finished cars.

Few people know, but in the two workshops of the plant (painting and welding) people do not participate at all in the production process. All the work is done by the so-called "transformers" - robotic manipulators. By the way, this technique is also manufactured at the Hyundai factory.

An obligatory stage of production is the control line, where the machine undergoes quality control. If problems are identified, the vehicle is sent for revision.

In 2016, the production of Hyundai Solaris in Russia was temporarily suspended, but, as company representatives assure, in March 2017, the Russians will be presented updated version car of the second generation - which will begin to be assembled at the same plant from January of this year.

In which countries and where is the Hyundai Greta (Creta) assembled, factories in Russia

The next model worthy of attention is the Hyundai Creta. Previously, cars were produced only for the Asian market, and production was established in India (Chennai city).

Already the first year of sales showed the success of the new model. Even before the start of the issue, the number of applications exceeded 70 thousand. In addition to Asia, Hyundai Creta is sold in South American and African countries.

Interestingly, the Indian plant was designed to produce no more than 7 thousand cars per month.

Due to such restrictions, buyers had to stand in queues for a long time, and the waiting time sometimes reached 6-8 months or more.

Not surprisingly, the issue of capacity expansion was given key attention. Already in the first year of production, it was announced about a future increase in the limit to 10 thousand cars per month.

As for the Russian market, Hyundai Creta appeared here later. Production has been established at the already mentioned plant in St. Petersburg. The launch of the first line started in August 2016.

From the assembly line, the cars enter the dealer network and are sold. The main difficulties are associated with the need to reconfigure the equipment under new model, because earlier at the plant on this line another model was produced - Solaris.

But now the production of Solaris has been moved to another, more advanced line (read above).

On average, the plant in St. Petersburg plans to produce 4-5 thousand cars per month. The total volume of Hyundai Creta cars that should roll off the assembly line is 200,000 units.

This is enough to cover the needs of not only Russia, but also neighboring countries.

It is worth noting that the Russian version of Hyundai Creta has a number of differences. The main feature is the adaptation of the car to Russian roads. This means that the ground clearance has been increased, a stiffer suspension has been installed.

There are restrictions in the choice of motors. Two engines are available for the Russian market - 1.6 and 2.0 liters. In this case, you can choose a full or front-wheel drive.

Read here detailed overview.

In which countries and where is the Hyundai Tussan assembled, factories in Russia

In recent years, crossovers have gained unprecedented popularity. They are roomy, have good cross-country ability, have a solid appearance and are very economical.

No wonder why each of the manufacturers wanted to snatch "a piece of their pie." The Hyundai company, which presented the market with a completely successful one, was no exception.

The car was developed on the basis of the famous ix35, released back in 2008. At the same time, manufacturers did not hide the fact that new crossover- just an enlarged version of a passenger car.

The clearance of the Hyundai Tussan is 18 cm, which is quite enough for our roads.

The issue of assembly deserves special attention. Today, the production of the model has been established in several countries - the Czech Republic, Turkey and South Korea.

There are large factories for the production of Hyundai cars in the United States, China and Mexico. By the way, some of the listed countries are no longer engaged in the production of the Hyundai model, but the factories still exist.

Crossovers come to Russia from a factory built in the Czech Republic. At the same time, the quality of the assembly of the car does not at all depend on the geography of production.

At each of the sites, strict quality control is carried out, which excludes the presence of defects.

In which countries and where is the Hyundai Santa Fe assembled, factories in Russia

It is not always clear where the car is assembled, because the last model update was seven years ago (in 2010). By the way, since that moment no significant changes have been made - only the appearance has been corrected.

For some period, Elantra was assembled for the Russian Federation and Europe in the Czech Republic (in the city of Noshovitsa).

The car was also produced in St. Petersburg. In 2009, the assembly of the "South Korean" was also established in Ukraine, at the Bogdan plant. At the same time, South Korea (Ulsan) still remains the main supplier.

It is from there that the car is sent to many countries, including Russia. By the way, in the period from 2000-2007, Elantra was produced in Taganrog ("Tagaz").

In addition to those already listed above, Elantra plants are located in Turkey, the Czech Republic, China, Brazil and India. But, the main supplier for Russia (with rare exceptions) is South Korea.

In which countries and where is the Hyundai IX35 assembled, factories in Russia

Hyundai IX35 is considered one of the most popular crossovers in Russia. For the first time, car sales started in 2009, and the first deliveries began a year later.

  • L - Slovakia (Zilina);
  • J - Czech Republic (Noshovice);
  • U - Korea (Ul-San).

Korean car owners claim that the plastic in the car is softer.

As for the Hyundai IX35 from Slovakia, many complain about a large number of shortcomings in the bodywork.

In which countries and where is the Hyundai I40 assembled, factories in Russia

The Hyundai I40 is a bright representative of the D-class. In fact, this is a "purebred" Korean, which was released in 2011, and today is considered one of the leaders in sales (when compared with other models of the manufacturer).

By the way, the car appeared in the sedan body only a year later. Unlike many other models, Hyundai I40 is assembled only in South Korea, in the city of Ulsan.

Results

Thus, the production of Hyundai cars has been established in several dozen countries.

If we talk about Russia and the production of Hyundai for this country, the following points stand out here:

  • South Korea, Ulsan. The largest plant, where 70 percent of all Hyundai cars for export are produced.
  • The Taganrog plant (TAGAZ) assembled some Hyundai models until 2010.
  • In 2008, the construction of its own car plant in St. Petersburg began, which began producing cars already in 2010. The plant is still in operation today. It is located in the Kamenka area.
  • Turkey. There is also a large plant for Hyundai production. It has been operating since 1998 to the present day.

In addition to the countries listed above, Hyundai is going to China, the USA, the Czech Republic, Brazil and others. But cars from these states come to Russia less and less often or are not delivered at all.

The Hyundai Elantra, well-known in Russia, belongs to the C-class. In its segment, it occupies a leading position, since this car sells well not only in our country, but also in the markets of other countries. The production of the very first generation of this model started back in 1990. Therefore, this car is already quite old. Today, the car is sold under the names - Lantra and Avante. And where is the Hyundai Elantra assembled for Russian buyers? This question today torments not a single owner of a comfortable "Korean". The model was last updated five years ago (2010).

Since that time, engineers only once subjected the model to restyling, after which it took a leading position in its class. There was a time when the Hyundai Elantra for the European and Russian markets was assembled at an enterprise in Czechoslovakia (the city of Noshovitsa). Today, cars are assembled at the St. Petersburg plant "Hyundai Motor Manufacturing Rus". And in 2009, in Ukraine, at the Bogdan plant, they also set up the assembly of this “Korean”. In addition, the Hyundai Elantra is produced by South Korea (Ulsan), from here cars are sent to world markets, including the Russian one. Almost all generations of the Elantra model are assembled at the South Korean enterprise. The exception is cars that were assembled for other countries. In the period from 2000 to 2007, some generations of the Elantra were produced in the Russian Federation in Taganrog at the TAGAZ enterprise.

In what other countries are collected "Korean"

The South Korean concern Hyundai has a lot of points around the world where Hyundai assembly Elantra and many other cars of the Korean concern are recognizable all over the world. Thanks to the diligence of the engineers and designers of the brand, the Hyundai Elantra has fallen in love with consumers in every corner of the universe. But, for consumers, the main thing is the build quality, and not the number of enterprises where the Hyundai Elantra is produced.

The main and largest enterprise where this car is assembled is a plant in South Korea, located in the city of Ulsan. Some of the cars produced are sold on the domestic market of the country, the rest are exported to Russia and other countries. The production of this model of the "Korean" has also been launched in Turkey. Koreans opened the enterprise here in 1998. A large number of cars are produced here, and the enterprise is one of the most powerful. In addition, Elantra manufacturing plants are located in:

  • Czech Republic
  • India
  • Brazil
  • China.

Cars from these enterprises, unfortunately or fortunately, do not come to Russian market. Elantra of domestic assembly is maximally adapted to Russian roads. Whether our engineers managed to make a really “Russian Korean”, you need to ask the owners of the sedan.
