2021 Hyundai Avante : Bye Bye Corolla Altis?


Let’s Talk Parametric Dynamics

Let’s face it, the main talking point about the 2020 Hyundai Avante will always be its exterior styling. Hyundai is building on the Sensuous Sportiness design identity, and introduced the ‘Parametric Dynamics’ design language for the first time ever on the Avante. 

Expect to see their future models slowly adopting this origami look. In fact, Hyundai just announced the 2021 Tucson and it is the second model to feature the Parametric Dynamics design language. 

But the Tucson takes it one step further by being the first car in the world to be designed by a computer using geometric algorithms. More on that in the future.

In terms of proportions, it is meant to have a four-door coupe kind of look similar to a CLS or 8-Series Gran Coupe. The design of the Avante is dominated by straight lines intersecting at weird angles and places, kind of like something a child would have done if given just a pencil, ruler and a piece of paper. 

The design of the front grille is described as a ‘parametric-jewel-pattern’ in Hyundai’s own words and the headlights and turn signals are neatly integrated with the grille. This parametric-jewel effect carries on onto the sides and the rear of the car.

The Best 2B Motorcycles in Singapore for Any Type of Rider


You’ve decided to grab life by the bars and start riding. This is your chance to take off on your own and explore the island. Finally a taste of freedom.

But what 2B motorcycle will you start with? 

Most will wrestle with this question more than the upcoming test questions. The bike you choose says something about you in a way cars don’t. You buy a car based on budget, needs and factors like whether you have kids, if you need to transport items, etc. It’s usually functional before personal.

A motorcycle is for you alone. Well maybe at most one other (unless you’re in Thailand and piling 5 on a bike).

Are you a sport rider, emulating Rossi? See yourself covered in leather riding with a MC? Prefer something retro to ride up to the coffee shop?

Our motorcycle choices are pretty limited in Singapore due to the different class of bike license. Unless you came here with a license from another country, you’ll be starting out with Class 2B, and that means under 200CC’s. Not the powerful, knee-sliding beast of a bike most lust after.
