Hyundai Coupe (Tiburon) test drive since 2007

Test drive in Russia: Hyundai Coupe 2.7

A large commotion in the ranks of our stereotypical thinking caused a bright blue Hyundai Coupe 2.7
I admit, now I’m for the first time driving a Korean car in general. Before that, everything was limited only to looking at the Korean automobile industry on Moscow streets, and writing news blocks. In my mind, different ideas about the inferiority of such machines were hung. The advertising block that the Hyundai Coupe with a 2.7-liter DOHC engine and a 6-speed manual gearbox accelerate, controlled and slows down better than any other sports compartment in its class evidence. At least, it is very very causing a desire to flushed this representative of the high -speed compartment.
Honestly, the appearance was so rounded that the associations with the fish are obtained. Boka are rounded, the headlights Zyzhengde, we saw all this. The back door opens with the window, in the manner of Mitsubishi Eclipse of past generations. It is important, closing back, not to hit with glass on the head of passengers. Side mirrors secrete the entire body and look just wonderful. In addition, their size gives an excellent review. But the memory is highlighted by Toyota Supra with similar mirrors. The back of the Hyundai Coupe does not look childish. The huge neck of the exhaust system is pacified with their murmur at idle. And if you give a gas, wait for a storm of emotions. Although I would take off the resonators and then the silence of some streets would announce an even greater rumble of release of this compartment. But what infringed more is the 215th width of the rubber. It seems too little for such a car. At least 235 mm and there will be a cool appearance.
The salon is made in the best quality traditions. Here again I was wrong, thinking about the inferiority of the cabin. My stereotype broke the excellent soft plastic panel, a stylish panel design (somewhat reminiscent of Nissan Sylvia torpedo), luxurious seats with perforated skin (it seems to be served for a long time). All buttons and levers are located where it is necessary and you will not have to get used to management for a long time. The handle of the KP is made round, which at first surprises, but then you begin to praise it for convenience. In the night mode, the colorful blue backlight shines the panel. Brightness can vary in different gradations.
Hyundai Coupe 2.7 The car is not for sleepy black grouse. The target purpose is an aggressive driver who loves to take everything from life. Including the whole potential of Hyundai Coupe. They squeezed the clutch, moved the box. Yes, this is a sport! The clutch is tight, and even short -term! Super. In the same manner, a number of gearboxes are made. The 1st and 2nd speeds are short, then they are longer. The 2.7-liter motor feels freely, even when you promote it and before cutting off. It's OK. Gas pedal to the floor and see1,2,3,4,5,6,000 revolutions! To do this is nice, in general. At the 6th speed and at 140 km/h, the car rides at about 4,000 rpm. Reason dictated that more than 160 km/h in the Moscow Ring Road is the impudence of pure water.
Disc brakes are inhibited 167 forces of the car. The idea is not new for the sport of a car, this has already become the norm. It is difficult to find fault with the quality of the brake system. The brake pedal is quite sensitive in emergency cases. Click abruptly on the brake and hear a pleasant crunch of ABS. So, you can drive calmly.
Favorite topic in all forums of the Internet sound insulation. Mostly Japanese cars are scolded, in particular Nissan Cefiro, Toyota Corolla, Honda Civic Ferio. German cars get less. Although, I will not say that in the same Mercedes-Benz B200, the insulation delights directly. But our culprit of the triumph of Hyundai Coupe, lightly argue with the German cars: nowhere I have not met such silence in the salon as in the Hyundai Coupe! Even the Japanese Nissan Teana, oddly enough, will easily lose to this Korean. Especially in the isolation of arches. The barely noticeable rustle of rubber is heard and that's it. The buzz of KamAZ and gazelles flying past is not at all noticeable. Probably, Korean masters tried to make thick glass, or glued the entire body with 3-centimeter insulation.
Boss and all sorts of pits of different caliber Korean athlete are not always without loss. Sometimes the suspension does not withstand and a small echo of the impact on the dashboard is heard. But in turns, you can enter at decent speeds, and even with a squeal of tires. Their size, as already noted, is small enough to clearly hold the car. There is noticeably lacking stability. The steering wheel is quite understandable, in terms of information content. I will not say that it is sharp or cotton. Average.
A good motto came up with Hyundai for his Coupe, whatever you say. All my prejudices disappeared after several or days of skating. A sports Korean accelerates, controls and slows down better than any other sports compartment in his class. I would still replace the word better than no worse. And the word of the other is not at all appropriate: for such ridiculous money of competitors, Hyundai Coupe simply does not.
