Review of the updated flagship of the Hyundai concern - the new Accent of 2013

New cars "Hyundai" "Accent", produced inRussia under the name of Solaris, initially bribe their appearance, because the Koreans managed to find a middle ground between the dynamism and compactness of the car. Not to notice the new Accent in the road flow is simply impossible, because its design was very emotional and expressive.

The top version is easily distinguished from the basic version."predatory" foglights, and all complete sets of sedans are equipped with 15-inch wheels. Already at first glance, it becomes clear that the appearance of the new "Henday" clearly did not save: the body is distinguished by embossed sidewalls, aggressive optics of front lights, stamped on the hood, sloping roof, spectacular taillights. What can I say about "Hyundai"? From the design point of view, the new "Accent" turned out to be quite good, and it also looks much more expensive than its value. All elements are inscribed very harmoniously, and therefore at this stage we can say one thing: Hyundai Accent is designed for buyers who love with their eyes, because with a detailed acquaintance, you can find weighty flaws.

Interior

As for the interior of the Hyundai,The new "Accent" does not cause a sense of budget. The quality of materials is not bad, although everything is made of harsh plastic. The driver's seat has a sufficient level of adjustments, ergonomics is adjusted to shine, and the optional set contains all the necessary elements that contribute to a comfortable ride. The basic version of the "Classic" has got air conditioning, an on-board computer, an audio system, front electric windows, two airbags, an immobilizer, and various accessories that please the eye with a pleasant design.

More expensive options will also accommodateclimate control, light and rain sensors, rear view camera, Supervision dashboard, Bluetooth service, ESC and TSC security systems. There is not too much space behind, but it is quite enough for medium-height passengers. Special mention deserves a roomy trunk with 465 liters of volume, which is enough for a car class B.

In general, the interior turned out to be quite good, althoughIt upsets the quality of materials and the somewhat crackling sound of the radio, which is not characteristic of the Hyundai products. The new "Accent" has got a very beautiful shell, and so I had to skimp on the individual parts, with which the interior elements became.

Technical features

Impeccable dignity of the new "Accent" cancount the dynamics. It comes to the Russian market in two versions: with a 107-horsepower 1.4-liter engine, and also with a 123-horsepower engine of 1.6 liters. Both versions are aggregated 5-speed manual transmission or 4-speed “automatic”. Acceleration to 100 km / h takes a little more than 11 seconds, where even when the desired “hundred” is reached, a proper thrust reserve remains under the right pedal.

Manageability boasts an impressivethe severity of reactions and the presence of a fixed zero zone. As for the character "Hyundai", the new "Accent" perfectly shows itself in high-speed cornering, without unnerving the user by an early slip. If the driver makes any mistake, the excellent equipment will always help him by correcting the trajectory of movement. But here the suspension somewhat spoiled the overall impression with its excessive rigidity, which is why many bumps are transmitted to the car's interior. Yes, and the overall insulation is made at a rather weak level, which adds its own fly in the ointment.

Conclusion

We conclude our review with price clarification.The cost of the new "Hyundai" "Accent" in the basic configuration will be 467,900 rubles for the 1.4-liter version and 512,900 rubles for the 1.6-liter version. The top car will cost you 698,900 rubles (there is no version with 1.4 liters).
