As you know, first the Japanese sedan Toyota Corolla, and only then the Korean Hyundai deserve the glory of sturdy and made reliable vehicles that are equally accessible. This, as dealers put it, is not just cars, but real bread and butter. But, judging by current prices, a layer of black caviar was probably also put on top of the plastered butter. Such is the difference over several years and, apparently, instead of the usual “sandwiches”, the buyer is offered real delicacies. Let's try to find out if this is true. And which car is better?

Hyundai Elantra и Toyota Corolla – по карману ли нашим

Уже с первого взгляда становится видно, что в Хендай определились с собственным, ни с чем не похожим стилем. Ниспадающая каскадами передняя панель и руль с крупной сердцевиной – это визитная карточка данного автомобиля. Да еще и ломаные раструбы приборов. Hyundai Elantra по оформлению интерьера немного схожа с I30, но все-же, отличается и от него вогнутой центральной консолью, имеющей оригинальные блоки магнитолы и климат-контроля.

A pleasant impression was left by the soft plastic of the cabin, neat inlay done by chrome and, in general, not a cheap design.

Читать далее о том, что лучше - Toyota Corolla или Hyundai Elantra-->Если Hyundai Elantra так хорош, то и Toyota Corolla не хромает. Сегодня любые дилерские центры мечтают иметь в ассортименте именно эти две машины. И все это объясняется тем, что данные автомобили легко и быстро продаются. Причем не только в какой-то одной стране, а по всему миру. Но у нас ситуация немного другая.

The main and main reason is not the well-known Russian uniqueness, which distinguishes our man, who can not be substituted for the same European or American standard. This is not the case, but the fact that not every Russian is capable, and even wants to pay 650 thousand rubles for the purchase of Toyota. And so much is only the basic equipment of the Toyota Corolla, equipped with 1.3 liters. engine.

Версия под названием Toyota Corolla «Comfort plus» выглядит более привлекательно, тем более, что здесь установлен уже 122-мощный двигатель, вариатор, а также дополнительно оснащена машина системой курсовой устойчивости, полным комплектом подушек безопасности, кондиционером и неплохой аудиосистемой. Это модель 2014 года и стоит она недешево – 801 тыс. рублей.

As for the Toyota Corolla model with 140 horses, everyone is asking for it, especially since it costs already 890 thousand rubles. On the other hand, if you add a few Moscow salaries to this sum, then you can buy a sedan more prestigious and fashionable, and if you search well, then a crossover.

Автомобиль Hyundai Elantra

Hyundai Elantra, судя по прайс-листу, тоже «мелочиться» не желает. Ее двигатель, поставляемый в базовой комплектации, правда, будет по мощнее тойотовского. Но и цена в данном случае выше на целых 50 тыс. рублей. Не слабо, да? Зато в этой базовой версии под названием Hyundai Elantra «Классик», рулевое колесо сделано из пластика, а магнитола вообще отсутствует.

Что касается версии Хендай, с наделенной ESP и боковыми аирбэгами, то стоит она не меньше 790 тыс. рублей. А топовый Hyundai Elantra «Comfort», наделенный подогревом руля и камерой заднего вида, стоит и того больше. По последним данным, около 900 тыс. рублей.

Finally, the version called Hyundai Elantra “Prestige”, endowed with light sensors, a salon mirror with automatic dimming, multimedia system and climate control, is scary to approach.

Although the same climate control and multimedia system can be obtained in the version of Hyundai "Elegance", which is much more accessible.

These are the prices for both sedans. And now we will try to look at what set of benefits the happy owner will get if he decides to buy one of these machines for himself.

Does the word disperse?

Most recently, the chief of the main concern of Toyota engineer Mitsuhisa Kato said that this car can only be called a vehicle, driving which you can get comfort or "high", as he literally put it. The words are really golden, especially since they were confirmed with the release of the new Highlander model. As for the Toyota Corolla, here you can argue.

On the video test drive a Toyota Corolla car:

Naturally, the Toyota Corolla car is made carefully, and there is no other way to expect from the Japanese manufacturer, because for many years it has proved the high build quality. Toyota Corolla has strict forms, but for some reason its lines do not excite the feelings that are used to an unexpected turn of events. Probably, we missed something new and original, and didn’t shout for a long time: “Wow, that’s just awesome!”

Here Hyundai Elantra in this regard looks much better. The lines of this car as if warmer, or something, heartier.

Отделка автомобиля Hyundai Elantra сделана отменно, а подгонка панелей настолько точна, что диву даешься. Вполне логично выполнено и управление вспомогательными устройствами. Одним словом, если недостатки и есть, то не так уж они и существенны.

К примеру, возьмем широкие стойки ветрового стекла Hyundai Elantra, которые с одной стороны ухудшают общий вид, а с другой стороны являются прочным средством пассивной безопасности. И когда смотришь на это уже с пониманием, зачем все так сделали, недостатки уже перестают быть таковыми.

Те же кнопки регулировки зеркал Hyundai Elantra лишены почему-то подсветки, хотя в темноте ими пользуются довольно редко. И отсутствует возможность опустить кресло пониже, но это замечается лишь водителями выше среднего роста. Подобного рода ляп заметен и в конструкции заднего дивана, который не такой уж и просторный, как хотелось бы. Одним словом, все недочеты производителя могут быть реабилитированы, если смотреть на это с практической или какой-либо другой точки зрения.

But here, the creators of the Hyundai Elantra trunk can’t be justified. You just wonder what prevented the designers from placing the backrest latches in the cargo hold, and not where they usually are? After all, the seat still folds out of the cabin and the button of the luggage compartment lock just would not hurt. Even on the “Comfort” version this button is absent, and the trunk is uncorked from the driver’s seat or with the help of a key fob.

Video review of the car Hyundai Elantra:

But Toyota Corolla in this regard is more traditional. On the trunk lid has its own button, and on the back of the sofa is conveniently located latches. In addition, the Corolla cargo bay is as much as 9 centimeters (and this is not so little) longer than the Korean. Yes, and passengers sitting in the back of the Toyota Corolla will be more spacious.

As for driver comfort, Japanese designers came up with an original solution. It can be called a Japanese dish in the style of constructivism. In short, the fully round Toyota Corolla devices are located next to the unequal trapezium of the multimedia system unit. It, in turn, is supported from below by a broken triangular type with a “climate control” panel. In other words, the situation in the Toyota Corolla is some kind of extraordinary and unusual, but not without grace. But here the buttons of window regulators, from which it gives savings, obviously, the points of the Japanese model will not be added, especially if we add to them undisguised covers of the housings of internal door handles.

Although, on the other hand, neither the free style and the experiments of the artists, nor the economy of materials, the appearance of the finish of the Toyota Corolla does not in any way spoil, all the more, without affecting the comfortable fit of the driver who drives the car, without straining one iota. In short, with the Japanese ergonomics, everything is in order.

Chassis

The chassis of the Toyota Corolla has such that it immediately discourages the desire to perform feats and does not fit in with the driver-driver. But the Toyota Corolla car rolls evenly and equally comfortably both on smooth asphalt and over bumps. The suspension is soft in appearance, but oddly enough, it is not afraid of even large, half the size of wheels, pits and perfectly fights rolls that are inevitable when rebuilding in sharp turns.

As for the bends, their Toyota Corolla passes very carefully, as befits a respectable Japanese. But on the other hand, it is clearly demonstrated that the chassis, assembled from inexpensive elements, is a good training.

Toyota Corolla engine to match the chassis. Again, a power unit of 140 horsepower is clearly not a weapon for fast-moving and dizzying attacks, but for long-distance travel alone or with a company, the engine is clearly in place. In addition, the engine is not noisy, only occasionally snapping at the persistent pressure of the accelerator pedal. By the way, such unsuitable behavior of the driver is unnerving and variator. After all, sharp and strong blows to the pedals are able to enter the checkpoint in a kind of stupor.

Традиционный АКПП Hyundai Elantra для поездок по городу намного предпочтительнее. Терпя любые грубости, не тратя времени на размышления, АКПП корейца продолжает отменно переключать передачи. Если же хватку немного ослабить, то переключение станет более нежным и плавным.

Hyundai Elantra в целом едет бодрее Тойоты. Ведь кроме расторопной и смекалистой коробки имеются и другие причины для такого вывода. Во-первых, двигатель Хендай на 10 лошадок мощнее, а во-вторых, на корейце стоит более упругая подвеска.

It is this very suspension that affects the smoothness of the ride, which cannot be called ideal only due to the fact that the shock absorbers are a bit stiff.

But the Korean has presumably studied our Russian pits in advance and knows how to fight them. The passenger and the driver do not throw a knee in the turns, and in this respect, Hyundai is probably more talented than the rival in the person of the Corolla. But everything is done too rationally, without a spark, or something. But these are supposed to be ordinary cars, although not the most affordable, if you look at it from the point of view of an ordinary person who lives in Russia.

Evaluation

If we evaluate the purchase of these cars from the point of view of experts, then again, they consider, citing the Russian market as an example, its not the most productive idea. Practically for the same price you can buy a more versatile vehicle, for example, a crossover Discounts for new cars! Profitable loan from 9.9% installments 0% adom.ru. But the golf-class sedan is a sedan, which gives the driver a completely different comfort.

As for the evaluation of the two models presented above, again, left by experts, they agree that the Japanese car is still better. Not so much on her head, but her image is cooler, which will ultimately determine the price of the secondary housing.

Let's derive the pros and cons of both models:

Преимущества Hyundai Elantra:

• The trunk, where you can safely carry a couple of travel suitcases
• A lot of places in Bardeaux
• The display of the Korean camera has accurate marking, although it does not predict the trajectory of movement when turning the steering wheel
• The seats have the right profile and tenacious non-marking upholstery.
• Equal floor at the back, which allows you to sit comfortably three passengers
• Optronic tidy, although decorating only the expensive version
• Automatic transmission, which is a proprietary Hyundai

On the video check the suspension of the car Hyundai Elantra:

Advantages of Toyota Corolla:

• The trunk is more spacious and comfortable than the Hyundai
• Seats and driver's seat look much more attractive.
• Rearview Camera, Parktronic and Assistant
• Convenient plastic cover that covers the socket, multimedia system connectors and more
• Round digitization devices
• CVT, able to save gasoline

Минусы Hyundai Elantra:

• Clearly budgetary look salon low-cost versions
• Small trunk
• Lack of trunk lock

Минусы Toyota Corolla:

• Small wheels
• Riding, which can not be called aggressive
• CVT, which can go into a stupor
• Small trunk

The conclusion can be drawn as follows. Both on a statics, and on dynamics the Korean car replays the Japanese. The Corolla has clearly lower build quality and a weaker engine, while the Korean has good brakes, the car has excellent road holding and is very comfortable. But the Korean loses in the volume and convenience of the trunk, as well as other parameters. If we evaluate on a five-point system, then we put 4 Toyota Corolla and 5 Hyundai Elantra.
