Acento en el Scion

Written by: mononeo on Mar 25, 2005 08:55 PM

Many of you are distraugh over the idea that the car has an "old" engine. Did you know that the 2005.5 Jetta, the new one that just came out has what you would deem an "old" engine. It's 2.5 liter inline-5, is derived from the old Jetta's 2.0 liter I-4, and both are still related in design to the original Jetta's (that's like 1983 or something) I-4 engine. Somehow, these ...

The statement of a five door being the first for hyundai's accent line is false. Hyundai has made a five door model of the Accent for years. It has just not been imported into the USA. Go to Hyundai uk or Hyundai canada site to see how good the five door looks.A shame really that it was never imported into the USA. Read More...

Well, obviously there's the new Accent5. It's a 5 door version of the sedan. It just came out and finally has TWO AIRBAGS!! So since they just launched it now, I presume that the next Accent will unfortunately only show up in 2006 as a 2007 model so that the Accent5 lasts at least 2 years (importing this model here for only one year would not be logic at all). Don't forget ... Read More...

ACCENT GT OWNERS OR DRIVERS ??

Written by: frenchcar on Sep 07, 2004 09:49 PM

Local Hyundai dealers do not have any more 2004Accent GT models so I will have to wait for a 2005 to test one out. We did drive a GL 4 door but Im curious how much difference the larger wheels and tires and stiffer suspension make in the ride and handling department.. Some of you must own the GT or perhaps have driven both. Let me know....PLEASE.... The white faced guages ... Read More...

I just sold my 2002 Accent GL 5spd with 52K miles. If not for me getting my old 94 Mazda Protege DX back, I would be in a Hyundai dealership right now waiting for the 2005 Accent model. My dealer service experience in NY is great. I only went once during the 2 years I've owned it. The one problem was with the Throttle Position Sensor circuit which was fixed in 2 hours. It ...

NEW 2005 ACCENT or TALOS ??

Written by: frenchcar on Aug 17, 2004 11:36 AM

I just spoke to a Hyundai salesman and he expects the new Accent in November or December. He has not heard of any changes in the 2005 and is under the impression that only the Sonata will change and of course the Tucson will be a new model in the line up. He could be wrong or is intentionally trying to push left over 04 models.. What do your dealers say? The Talos looks great. ... Read More...

You mean, Hyundai produced the Accent four-door in saloon guise only, right? The Accent has been available as a 2-door hatchback for some time. And of course the predecessor to the Accent, the Excel, was available as both a 2-door and 4-door hatchback. The new Talos looks like a slick little car. We need more hatchbacks! Read More...

2005 Hyundai Talos Spy Shots (Accent Replacement)

Written by: player4 on Jul 06, 2004 10:42 AM

Here is the latest contender from Korea, the Hyundai Talos. It will replace the Accent early in 2005, and promises more refinement, interior quality and aesthetic style. The latest news to emerge about Hyundai's Accent replacement, apart from that fact that it will be called Talos, is that it will be built in hatchback form as well as saloon. That's a first for ...

Low End Sedans (under $16k)

Backy, thanks for the explanation. However, I am still curious as to why you find the Sentra's handling "sloppy". I would certainly agree with you that back seat room in the Sentra clearly reveals its late 90s design (introduced in Spring 2000 as a 2000). Also, the Sentra has quite possibly the most absurd excuse for a cupholder that Ive ever seen. I drove the Aerio ... Read More...
