We have introduced Hyundai Mistra diecast model in yesterday’s post, 1st Generation 2014 Hyundai Mistra Diecast Model for Collection, and Hyundai Mistra is a mid-size sedan only sold in China. In addition to Mistra, here is another mid-size sedan Hyundai car only sold in China, that’s Hyundai Lafesta. In Hyundai’s Chinese vehicle lineup, it sits between the Hyundai Mistra and Hyundai Sonata.
The first generation Hyundai Lafesta was released in October 2018, later its diecast model was manufactured for fan collection or free gift for car owners when buying the car.
Two different colors including yellow and blue of this 1/18 scale Hyundai Lafesta diecast model was released, now you can still find blue Lafesta model at higher price, but it is rare to find the yellow model.
As most 1/18 scale Hyundai diecast models, lots of working parts on this model such as four car doors, bonnet and trunk.
Hyundai Lafesta has a good sales in 2018 when firstly introduced in the market, however, four years past, its sales volume is very low in 2022. I am not sure whether new Hyundai Lafesta with changed facelift will be released in the future, and I think this 1/18 scale Hyundai Lafesta diecast model is the only one car model of this car.
