Hyundai Solaris and Kia Rio are among the most popular models at the Russian market: 230 thousand cars were produced at the plant in St. Petersburg last year. The time has come to update the vehicles: the Hyundai Solaris with the 1,6-litre engine was equipped with the six-speed gearbox and its design was changed.
The Koreans also decided to rename the versions: instead of the previous Classic, Optima and Comfort, customers will be offered to buy Active, Comfort and Elegance. Now the standard Hyundai Solaris costs 463 900 rubles (hatchback) and 473 900 rubles (sedan).
