New Hyundai Accent might arrive this year

Hyundai is aiming to revamp their model lineup this year in India. First we saw a preview of the new Sonata and now the latest news in is that even the hugely popular Accent might see an update this year. Hyundai have had massive success with this model and would gain a lot if the updated model can make a good impression.

The company recently took the covers off from their third generation Accent at the New York Auto Show. The company has continued their new design concepts with deviation from sharp cuts. The new car features rather soothing curves. The front end is completely new with more rounded corners and horizontal slats. The car is also expected to come with better passenger space as the car has grown by a couple of centimeters.

The car of course would see both petrol and diesel versions coupled with a 5-speed gearbox. The company has also improved the interiors of the car and has both a hatchback and three-box version on offer. India as usual is expected to get the larger of the two models considering the consumer here likes to get more bang for their buck.
