Hyundai Custo, which was first launched in the Chinese market, is understood to have plans to launch it in other markets, which is one of the factors for Nanyang Industrial to successfully acquire Custo domestically. Custo has two displacement power configurations in the Chinese market, namely: 1.5-liter and 2.0-liter are both turbo-powered settings, of which the 1.5T version has 125kW horsepower output (regarding 168 horsepower) and 25.8 kg-meter torque data.
