IRS suspension vs LRA
Cloth seats vs Leather seats
Driveshaft that can't go past 115 mph vs a driveshaft that can go to 160+ mph
Automatic CC vs Manual CC
Fog lights vs None
5y/60k Warranty vs 10y/100k Warranty
It isn't like will Hyundai will offer less for more. That is the one reason I respect there business practices but I am still not impressed with the sporting nature of most other Hyundai's. |
from a performance standpoint the solid axle and 115mph driveshaft (which i have never heard before) are only disadvantages if the was was slower, which it isnt. a solid axle is lighter and reduces unsprung weight. ford has made this an advantage imo
