The best photos so far of the new China-only Hyundai Mistra sedan, it will be launched on the China car market on November 23 during the Guangzhou Auto Show, price will range from 130.000 to 180.000 yuan. The Hyundai Mistra will be made in China by the Beijing-Hyundai joint venture.

Very stylish interior with loads of wood and leather.

At launch the Mistra will be available with two engines; a 1.8 with 146hp and 175nm and a 2.0 with 162hp and 194nm, both engines mated to a six-speed manual or six-speed automatic. In 2014 a new and very strong 1.6 turbo will join the line-up, output is 204hp and 265nm. Size: 4710/1820/1470, wheelbase is 2770.

The new sedan will compete with fine cars such as the Volkswagen Sagitar, the Citroen C4L and Honda Crider, all relatively small sedans with a premium look & feel. The Korean attack will on the segment be hardened in 2014 when the new Kia K4 sedan arrives, which is based on the same platform as the Mistra.
