The Touring Wagons, which are he heaviest, are 200lbs lighter. Non turbo sedans are more like 500lb lighter, give or take.

A lot of that is due to changes in angular geometry and changes in material useage

Just did a Google search... wasn't until after it was pulled from the US that they did the rebadging, though it was with Suzuki and Daihatsu, not Hyundai. Now I'm not sure how much I can trust my brain, because I was certain I read that in more than one place.
