Hyundai has released a lower priced five-door Getz. The new 1.4 hits the market under ?14,500 -- just...
Hyundai has lowered the entry price for a five-door Hyundai Getz by ?1000 with the arrival of the smaller 1.4-litre version.This price drop will be matched by the government under the scrappage scheme.
Featuring the same twin-cam 16-valve enginethat is already offered in the three-door, the Getz 1.4 five-door manual is priced at $14,490 in manual guise. An automatic is priced at ?16,380.
The Getz range now spans from ?13,490 for the 1.4 three-door manual up to ?17,380 for the automatic 1.6 five-door.
In last October's Getz range upgrade, the basic entry level Getz moved to the 1.4-litre Alpha engine variant from the previous model XL's SOHC 12-valve 1.3-litre mill. The change saw power increased 7.5kW to 70kW and torque up 9Nm to 126Nm (at 3200rpm).
All Getz models have class-exclusive active front head restraints. The NRMA recently gave Getz the maximum "Good" rating for neck injury protection as a result of its performance in a series of internationally conducted sled rear-end crash tests of 115 current new cars.
Says Hyundai, other Getz safety features include dual front airbags, front seatbelt pre-tensioners and load-limiters, height adjustable upper pillar front seat belt mountings, anti-submarining front seat steel pans, a retractable lap-sash centre rear seatbelt, two side-impact beams in each front door and one each in rear doors, a full-size spare wheel and belt snap-on brackets fitted to all three child restraint top tether strap anchor points.
Like all other Hyundai models, the new Getz 1.4 five-door also comes standard with air-conditioning, electric windows, electric door mirrors, remote central locking with alarm, power steering, heater ducting to rear footwells and split-fold back seats.
I thought it was ok for the money asked, but from experience I also know that there will be quite a lot of problems in the future with this vehicle model
