2016-hyundai-tucson-executive 2

Hyundai-Sime Darby Motors (HSDM) has confirmed that prices for its model line-up will remain unchanged for 2016. However, the company’s latest model, the second-generation Tucson, will see prices go up by RM3,000 effective January, as revealed during the SUV’s launch in November 2015.

The Tucson is available locally in two variants, the Elegance and Executive. With the RM3,000 increase, or the expiry of introductory prices, the range now starts from RM129,991 OTR without insurance. The Executive is now priced at RM142,633. Both are powered by a 2.0 litre MPi Nu engine with 155 PS/192 Nm, paired to a six-speed automatic gearbox and FWD. View our launch report for more.

Rising costs due to foreign exchange has led to increased car prices for 2016 as companies seek to maintain margins. Honda Malaysia, UMW Toyota Motor and Lexus Malaysia have released new and higher prices, along with Kia (across the board) and Peugeot (308 and 508 only). No change for BMW and MINI.

      What is your point? It really depends on what u r looking for. toyota hiace van can seat even more than rush and cost much cheaper than many cars on the road. do you mean everyone should get a van?

    Looks Like the high demand of budget Hyundai Creta fail to boost Hyundai sales figure.

    this literally means the Failure of Hyundai Fluidity 2.0 not only fails to attract existing hyundai buyers, it fails to inspire others too.

    Just look at the dull dashboard they are providing in 2016.
