Hyundai Matrix 2003 Bahrain Prices & Specs

The Matrix is a typical urban runabout built in Korea, but with its own little twist. It is halfway between a minivan and a hatchback, while looking better than neither. The Matrix is probably a great driver in town traffic with practicality and tight proportions offering good interior space inside a compact body, but we are not sure if the Middle East is ready for such a car. Powered by either a 1.6-litre or a 1.8-litre, the smaller engine can be had with a manual or an automatic, while the larger engine gets only an automatic. Basic features include power steering, power windows, simple a/c, cloth seats, radio and cassette player with 4 speakers, 14-inch steel wheels with plastic covers, and a roof rack. Safety is apparently optional, as only the higher models get dual airbags and ABS brakes, paired up with other options like fake metal-look trim, central door locking, rear wiper and washer, electrically-adjustable mirrors and 15-inch alloy wheels. Sometimes being named after a hit movie just isn't enough.
