In 2019, the Hyundai Santa Fe XL was replaced by the Hyundai Palisade.

Let’s get back to today’s topic, Hyundai Palisade, it is a mid-size crossover SUV manufactured by Hyundai in 2018, and now it is the flagship SUV in Hyundai lineup.

With the release of Hyundai Palisade in some countries such as the North America, Philippines, Australia and so on, its related diecast model can be found in the market, however, only one model is available, pictures are below.

1/38 Hyundai Palisade Toy in Deep Blue
1/38 Hyundai Palisade Toy in White

It is the miniature of Hyundai Palisade at 1/38 scale, about 13.1cm length, and two different colors including white and blue are available. This Hyundai Palisade toy is made in China, however, it is for sale in South Korea market, you can find all the Korean on its factory package.

As a diecast toy, it is easy for children to play, two car doors can be opened or closed as real Palisade, and common pull-back function is available.

If you are car model collectors, I hope 1/18 scale Hyundai Palisade diecast model will be released soon for you because to be honest the details of this Hyundai Palisade car toy is not as good as the 1/18 scale car models.

Based on this topic, I want to share another Kia car toy by Welly.

1/36 Kia Soul Toy by Welly

If you are car models collectors, you would be familiar with with the Welly brand because you can find lots of Welly models at different scales such as 1/18, 1/24 and 1/36 scale models in the market, as usual, both the 1/18 and 1/24 scale models are suitable for collectors, and the price of these car models by Welly is cheaper than other brands such as Almost Real, Century Dragon and so on. The 1/36 scale car toys by Welly are suitable for the kids with simple playing functions.

In addition to the Kia Soul by Welly, there is only one Kia Pride model by Welly, and it is a 1/24  scale model for fans collection.

Let’s give a simple introduction about Kia Pride which was discontinued more than 10 years. The Kia Pride which was a subcompact car was manufactured by Kia from 1987 to 2000, and then discontinued for some years. In 2005, based on the Kia Rio, the new Pride was manufactured from 2005 to 2011 and sold in export markets.

1/24 Kia Pride Model By Welly

Looking at displayed picture, it is the replica model of Kia Pride manufactured between 1987 and 2000, four different colors including silver, white, red and orange were available, but now it is difficult to find this model.

In 2013, the 2nd generation Kia Soul with codename PS was released as the 2014 model year, different with the 1st generation Kia Soul, this Kia Soul was only manufactured in Korea and Russia, and exported to other countries. For example, the Kia Soul was discontinued in China due to the poor sales performance. However, in the North American market such as the U.S. and Canada, Kia Soul was one of the best-selling car, especially the 2nd generation Kia Soul.

In 2019, the 3rd generation Kia Soul with codename SK3 was released as the 2020 model year, and it was only manufactured in the South Korea. In 2021, Kia discontinued the Soul in South Korea due to poor sales. In 2023, the Kia Soul with new facelift, Kia Soul GT Line, was released.

If you are the Kia Soul car owners and want to buy the same Soul car toy for your children, there are two car toys highly recommended to you.

Kia Soul Car Toy By Welly in Creamy White

This first Kia Soul car toy is the item manufactured by Welly, which as you know is a famous Diecast cars brand located in Hong Kong, looking at its exterior, it is the replica car toy of the 1st generation Kia Soul. As for the functions, two car toys can be opened or closed as the real car, and pull-back function is available so that it is easy to play by little children.

Kia Soul Car Toy in Golden

The second Kia Soul toy car was also manufactured in China by an unknown brand, and it is also the miniature of 1st generation Kia Soul. Compared with the car toy by Welly, both working sound and flashing light functions are available on this car toy, it is more interesting. In addition, more color options such as silver, white, red, golden and blue are availble to meet different kids’ needs.

As for these two Kia Soul car toys, the price is affordable, however, both of them are 1st generation Kia Soul, if you are still looking for the 2nd generation and the 3rd generation Kia Soul car toys, it is a pity that there is no related item.

Two Kia EV Series Diecast Car Models for Collectors http://www.hyundaiautonews.com/two-kia-ev-series-diecast-car-models-for-collectors/ Sun, 06 Oct 2024 01:02:00 +0000 http://www.hyundaiautonews.com/?p=479 With the fast development of battery electric cars worldwide, especially in China such as NIO, Xpeng, Lixiang and so on, lots of fuel vehicle enterprises such as Volkswagen, BMW and so on released their battery electric cars, for example, the Volkswagen ID series including, ID.3, ID.4, ID.6 and ID.7 were released at different times for different buyers, and today, we will introduce two battery electric cars manufactured by Kia.

Share with the same platform as Hyundai Ioniq 5, Electric Global Modular Platform (E-GMP), the first Kia dedicated battery electric car was released in 2021 with the nameplate EV6, and in Kia development programme, the Kia electric cars will be manufactured from EV1 to EV9, and until now, three vehicles including EV6, EV9 and EV5 were manufactured successively in different countries including the South Korea(EV6), United States and South Korea(EV9) and China(EV5).

With the release of KIA EV6, its diecast model can be found in the Korean market, it is a 1/38 scale diecast model of 2021 EV6 in three different colors, red, white and gray. The car model is suitable for both kids and collectors at affordable price.

The KIA EV5 was released in China in 2023, and it is the third electric vehicle under the KIA EV nameplate. Above all, this car was manufactured by joint venture enterprise Yueda Kia, so that the EV5 was exported to many countries such as Thailand, which was the first country of EV5 export destination from China.

If you are looking for the KIA EV5 miniature, there is one exact model for you, and picture is displayed below.

Different with the KIA EV6 diecast car manufactured in South Korea, this KIA EV5 diecast model was manufactured in China, and it is a 1/32 scale car model with length 14.4cm. To be honest, the quality and details of this EV5 model is better than that EV6 car model, four car doors, bonnet and trunk can all be opened or closed as real vehicle, its interior can be cleary seen, however, the price of this EV5 model is higher, are you willing to pay more money on this car model?

In the same year 2023, the Kia EV9 crossover SUV was manufactured in both South Korea and United States, however, no related diecast model was released until now, and we will update this post if we can find new item in the future.

Only One 1/18 Scale Kia Soul Diecast Model for Collection http://www.hyundaiautonews.com/only-one-1-18-scale-kia-soul-diecast-model-for-collection/ Sat, 05 Oct 2024 03:25:00 +0000 http://www.hyundaiautonews.com/?p=494 Kia Soul is a subcompact crossover SUV manufactured by Kia since 2008, and in the past 16 years, three generations Kia Soul were released in different countries, in 2013, the 2nd generation Kia Soul with codename PS was released, and six years later in 2019, the 3rd generation Kia Soul with codename SK3 was released, however, in diecast models market, we can only find one 1/18 scale Kia Soul diecast model, and it is the miniature of 1st generation Kia Soul manufactured between 2008 an 2013.

1/18 Kia Soul Car Model in Red

Looking at displayed picture, this exterior of this Kia Soul model is the 1st generation Soul, and in fact, it is the replica model of Kia Soul released in China in 2009 as the 2010 model year and it was manufactured by joint venture enterprise Yueda Kia.

In order to meet different collectors’ needs, three different colors including white, red and orange are available, and good news that you can still find all these three colors now even if it is an older diecast model manufactured about 13 years ago. Due to the poor sales of Kia Soul in China, the 2nd generation Kia Soul was not continued at here, that’s the reason no more 1/18 scale Kia Soul model was released for collectors.

As for the functions of this Kia Soul model, just like most 1/18 scale diecast models, there are lots of working parts such as four car doors, bonnet, trunk and car sunroof, in short, both the exterior and interior are in detail.

In addition to 1/18 scale Kia Soul model, you can also find some Kia Soul car toys for children as gift, however, all these Kia Soul toys and models are replica model of 1st generation Soul, we still can not find any 2nd and 3rd generation Kia Soul model until now, do you have such models in your collection?

Are You Interested in Hyundai Pony Car Model? http://www.hyundaiautonews.com/are-you-interested-in-hyundai-pony-car-model/ Mon, 02 Sep 2024 02:17:00 +0000 http://www.hyundaiautonews.com/?p=468 In yesterday post, we have introduced the 4th generation Hyundai Verna and its related 1/32 scale car toy, and in that post, we mentioned that the Hyundai Verna has different nameplates in different countries at different stages, and do you know the local nameplates of 1st generation Hyundai Verna in France? The answer is Hyundai Pony.

For most people, I think they are not familiar with the Hyundai Pony which was released in 1975 as the 1st generation model, and it was manufactured from 1975 to 1990, only two generation models were released. As for Hyundai Pony, it can be considered as one milestone vehicle in Hyundai lineup because it is the first mass-produced and exported car in South Korea.

When talking about the Hyundai Pony, we have to introduce its another vehicle named as Hyundai Excel because the Hyundai Pony with front-wheel drive that sold in Europe from 1985 to 1994 was named as Hyundai Excel.

In 1994, the first generation Hyundai Accent was released, and in France, the Hyundai Accent was named as Hyundai Pony, and it is the final usage of the name and discontinued in 2000. Later in 2nd generation and 3rd generation Hyundai Accent, the Super Pony nameplate was used in some countries, the 4th generation Hyundai Accent was named as Grand Pony in Colombia.

We have shared a 1/32 scale Hyundai verna car toy model for kids and collectors, and if you are also interested in Hyundai Pony car model, there is a 1/38 scale car toy for you which was manufactured in Republic of Korea.

1/38 Hyundai Pony Car Model

Look, it is the replica model of 1st generation 1975 Hyundai Pony, and five different colors including green, blue, gray, yellow and red are manufactured to meet different buyers’ needs. Two car doors can be opened or closed, above all, pull-back function is available so that it is easy for children to play.

1/32 Scale Hyundai Verna Car Toy for Both Kids and Collectors http://www.hyundaiautonews.com/1-32-scale-hyundai-verna-car-toy-for-both-kids-and-collectors/ Sun, 01 Sep 2024 01:24:00 +0000 http://www.hyundaiautonews.com/?p=463 In previous posts, we have introduced the development history of Hyundai Verna which have different nameplates at different stages in different countries, and it is really confused.

For example in China, the 1st generation Hyundai Verna which was named as Hyundai Accent at that time was manufactured by joint venture enterprise Dongfeng Yueda-Kia with nameplate Yueda-Kia Qianlima from 2002 to 2006, and in international market at the time, the 2nd generation Hyundai Verna was released. Then from 2006 to 2010, the 3rd generation Hyundai Verna was released in China with nameplate Hyundai Accent. Since 2010, the 4th generation Hyundai Verna was released with the nameplate Verna firstly, and its local Chinese name is Ruina. If you are still confused the relationship between Hyundai Verna and Hyundai Reina which was released in 2017, please write this related post, Difference Between Hyundai Verna and Hyundai Reina.

As for Hyundai Verna diecast model, we have shared a 1/18 scale 5th generation Hyundai Verna(YC) model before, however, if you are still looking for the 4th generation Hyundai Verna(RC) car toy released in China in 2010, here is the exact one for you.

1/32 Hyundai Verna Car Toy

Looking at displayed pictures, it is the 1/32 scale Hyundai Verna car toy, the Chinese name Ruina(瑞纳) was printed on front licence plate while the English name VERNA was printed on rear license plate.

Compared with 1/18 scale Hyundai car models, this 1/32 scale car toy is mainly for children, and there are some funny playing methods, for example, two car doors can be opened or closed as real car, and pull back car toy on floor, then loose hand, car toy goes forward automatically. However, if you are the 4th generation Hyundai Verna car owners, this Verna car toy can be used as as home or office decoration, or even your collection.

Hyundai Ioniq is a five-door liftback manufactured by Hyundai since 2016, and three editions including hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and all-electric variants are available in selected countries such as U.S. According to the sales statistics, about 325,500 units were Ioniq worldwide from 2016 to January 2021. Are you a Hyundai Ioniq car owner? If yes, have you considered buying a Hyundai Ioniq diecast car model for collection or decoration?

In diecast models market, there is only one Hyundai Ioniq Model at 1/38 scale manufactured in South Korea, and it is the replica model of 1st generation 2017 Hyundai Ioniq, pictures are here below.

1/38 Hyundai Ioniq Diecast Model

To meet different buyers’ needs, three different colors including white, black and red are available, it is lifelike exterior and interior. Meanwhile, it is a great Hyundai car toy for children due to simple but funny playing methods, for example, kids can open the two car doors, and pull car toy back on floor, then loosen hands, car toy goes forward automatically.

Hyundai Ioniq is a best-selling car worldwide and I hope new Hyundai Ioniq diecast models at different scales will be manufactured soon, and we will update this post if new car models are available.

New Released 1/18 Scale Hyundai Mufasa Diecast Models for Collectors http://www.hyundaiautonews.com/new-released-1-18-scale-hyundai-mufasa-diecast-models-for-collectors/ Mon, 01 Jan 2024 02:35:00 +0000 http://www.hyundaiautonews.com/?p=445 We have introduced Hyundai ix35 and its related diecast models in previous post, and you know Hyundai ix35 is the variant of Hyundai Tucson but it is only being sold in China with lower price than Hyundai Tucson, the 1st generation Hyundai ix35 with codename LW was released in 2010 and the 2nd generation Hyundai ix35 with codename NU was released in 2017. 1/18 Scale Hyundai ix35 Diecast Models at Different Generations

In 2023, a new Hyundai SUV with nameplate Mufasa was released in China by joint venture Beijing Hyundai, and the codename of this Mufasa is NU2, so that it is considered as the successor of 2nd generation Hyundai ix35 or the upgraded edition of Hyundai ix35.

With the release of Hyundai Mufasa, its related diecast model can be found in the diecast market, however, its quantity is still limited until now. Pictures are here below.

1/18 Hyundai Mufasa Car Model in Silver

As a 1/18 scale diecast model, both the exterior and interior are replica of real vehicle in detail, for example, you can clearly see the button on dashboard or the socket of safety belt inside, you can also open or close four car doors, bonnet and trunk.

Since the release of Hyundai Custo diecast model last year, which is also the only one 1/18 scale Hyundai diecast model released in 2023, and in 2024 new year, 1/18 Hyundai Mufasa diecast model was available for both collectors and vehicle owners, I hope this is not the only one 1/18 Hyundai diecast car this year because I found the quantity of new released 1/18 Hyundai models becomes less and less now.
