  puhleez, taxi where got all these goodies one. CDG would've taken everything out to reduce cost. wow signal lights everything at finger tips wor. i heard the face-lifted sonata taxi comes with reverse sensor, blue lighting instrumentation BUT no rear power windows. dun know true or not. btw, the pic is a left hand drive model so most probably for the domestic korean market and should be pte. car not taxi lah. sigh

  Basically i think the interior is still the same, even the driver's instrument panel's looked like it was carried over from the previous model except for the centralised a/c vents orientation and forget the airbags, steering mounted controls, Sat-Nav, stylo gearstick, auto climate control, premium Infinity sound system and the sprinkling of wooden strips here and there ....these are considered premiums and I dont feel that CDGE's gonna go for it...unless of course if it's included in the package and FREE .

   

   

  The major changes to the vehicles which we can see :

   

  1. Larger and more aggressive grill infront and bigger light clusters(still using same light bulbs and not projector bulbs).

   

  

  

    

   2. Larger rear light clusters, changes of bumper moulding and 2 strips of rear bumper guards.(to prevent light knocks ).

  

   

   

   

  Wat we will probably not get :

  1. Airbags.

  2. Steering mounted controls.

  

   

  3. Premium Infinity sound system.

  

   

   

  4. Climate control.

   

  

    

  5. Stylo gearstick

  

   

   

  Cheers.....

  Hope with the new taxis the attitude of some cabbies will also follow suit

  I only see facelifted Comfort Hyundai Sonata but not a single facelifted CityCab Hyundai Sonata. I am happy with the initial batch of Hyundai Sonata.

  Wow. Didnt expect the facelifted version to reach Singapore so fast. Spotted them at their hometown in Seoul, South Korea days ago, and of course in LHD version.

   

  The new headlamp design is a plus, since it really look like an Azera.
