Hyundai Accent From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search Hyundai Accent Manufacturer Hyundai Motor Company Production 1994–present Assembly Ulsan, South Korea Barcelona, Anzoátegui, Venezuela Beijing, China Chennai, India, Russia, Iran, Turkey Khartoum, Sudan London, UK Indonesia Predecessor Hyundai Excel Class Subcompact car Layout FF layout The Hyundai Accent (Korean: 현대 엑센트), or Hyundai Verna (현대 베르나) in South Korea, is a subcompact car produced by Hyundai. In Australia, the first generation models carried over the Hyundai Excel name used by the Accent's predecessor. The Accent was replaced in 2000 by the Hyundai Verna in South Korea, although most international markets retained the "Accent" name. The Hyundai Verna is marketed in the U.S. as the Hyundai Accent. The Accent is produced for the Chinese market by Beijing Hyundai Co., a joint venture with Beijing Automotive Industry Corp. For Russian market it is assembled by TagAZ plant in Taganrog. In Mexico, the Accent is marketed by Chrysler as the Dodge Attitude, previously Verna by Dodge. In Venezuela, Chrysler marketed them as Dodge Brisa until 2006. The Brisa was assembled by Mitsubishi Motors at its plant in Barcelona, Venezuela. Since 2002, the Accent had been the longest-running small family car sold in North America. In Puerto Rico, it has been sold as the Hyundai Brio. In 2008, Hyundai Accent was named the most dependable sub-compact car by J.D. Power and Associates.[1] Contents 1 First generation (X3; 1994–1999) 1.1 Safety 2 Second generation (LC; 2000–2005) 2.1 Safety 3 Third generation (MC; 2005–2010) 3.1 Safety 3.2 Hybrid 4 Fourth generation (RB; 2010–present) 5 Motorsport 5.1 WRC 5.2 Junior Formula series 6 References 7 External links [edit] First generation (X3; 1994–1999) First generation (X3) Also called Dodge Brisa (Venezuela) Hyundai Excel Hyundai Pony Bimantara Cakra(Indonesia) Kia Qianlima[2][3][4] Production 1994–1999 (South Korea) 1995–2006 (Egypt) Assembly Ulsan, South Korea Cairo, Egypt (Ghabbour Group)[5] İzmit, Turkey (Hyundai Assan)[6] Gaborone, Botswana (TMBC)[7] Body style(s) 4-door sedan 3-door hatchback 2-door coupe Engine(s) 1.3 L 85 hp (63 kW) I4 1.5 L 92 hp (69 kW) I4 1.6 L 105 hp (78 kW) I4 Transmission(s) 4-speed automatic 5-speed manual Wheelbase 2,400 mm (94.5 in) Length Hatchback: 4,100 mm (161.4 in) Sedan: 162.1 in (4,117 mm) Width 1,620 mm (63.8 in) Height 1,395 mm (54.9 in) The Hyundai Accent (X3) was introduced as a replacement for the Excel for the 1995 model year. It continued to be called Dodge Brisa in Venezuela or Hyundai Excel in some markets, such as the Netherlands, Belgium and Australia. In France, it was called the Hyundai Pony. In Australia, the X3 proved so popular (due to its low price) that it was the third best-selling vehicle in the country in both 1996 and 1998. In the latter year, it achieved more than 44,000 sales (a 5.5% share of the total market), a record figure at the time, for an imported car. Between 1994 and 2000, some 200,000 X3s were sold in Australia, making it arguably the most successful imported vehicle in the country's history. Also in Australia, from 11/97 onwards, these model were fitted standard with a DOHC 1.5L. The G4FK was a replacement for the tired G4EK SOHC. The new engine produced 74 kW (101 PS; 99 hp) at 6000 rpm and a max torque of 134 N·m (99 lb·ft) at 4000 rpm. This engine was available in America in the Accent GT.[citation needed] The Accent was sold in saloon (sedan), hatchback, and coupé form in the UK, with a choice of three engines for each: a 1.3 12v (85 hp), 1.5 12v (92 hp) and a 1.5 16v (105 hp) petrol. There was no diesel option (until the 2003 redesign). A GSi spec car was the top-specification Accent with front power windows and a radio/cassette player. The MVi-spec coupé version won particular praise for its handling agility in the UK. Although the Accent was cheap to buy and insure, its engines were quite thirsty; the 1.5-litre returned 33 mpg-imp (8.6 L/100 km; 27 mpg-US) average according to list figures. Though manuals exist for Accents before and after 1999, a manual for 1999 Hyundai Accent has not been published. Additionally, owners of the 1999 model were informed by their dealers that the power output of the 1.5 L engine was in fact rated at 88 horsepower (66 kW).[citation needed] In 1999, Jeremy Clarkson used a Hyundai Accent in a banger race, competing against Tiff Needell amongst other competitors, in his video Head to Head. After the race, Clarkson had the Accent crushed in a junkyard. [edit] Safety The 1998 Hyundai Accent was crash-tested by Euro NCAP and showed rather poor performance, scoring only 4 points out of 16 for frontal impact.[8] Nevertheless, the Swedish insurance company, Folksam, rates the 1st-gen Accent as one of the safest cars in its weight class.[9] 1996 Hyundai Accent hatchback (North America) 1994–1998 Hyundai Excel (X3) LX sedan (Australia) 1994–1998 Hyundai Excel (X3) LX sedan (Australia) 1998–2000 Hyundai Excel (X3) GLX sedan (Australia) 1997–1999 Hyundai Accent hatchback (US) [edit] Second generation (LC; 2000–2005) Second generation (LC) Also called Dodge Verna Giad Accent (Sudan) Hyundai Accent Admire Hyundai Accent Verna Hyundai Brio Hyundai Avega Hyundai Verna Hyundai Verna Viva Production 1999–present Assembly Cairo, Egypt Chennai, India Ulsan, South Korea Taganrog, Russia (TagAZ)[10] İzmit, Turkey (Hyundai Assan)[6] Khartoum, Sudan (Giad)[11] Body style(s) 4-door sedan 3-door hatchback 5-door hatchback Engine(s) 1.6 L 103 hp (77 kW) I4 (2003–06) 1.5 L 92 hp (69 kW) I4 (2000–02) 1.5 L 92 hp (69 kW) I4 (2003) (Canada) 1.6 L 105 hp (78 kW) I4 (2002–03) Transmission(s) 4-speed automatic 5-speed manual Wheelbase 2,440 mm (96.1 in) Length 1999–2002 Sedan:4,235 mm (166.7 in) 2002–2005 Sedan:4,260 mm (167.7 in) 1999–2002 3-Door Hatchback: 4,215 mm (165.9 in) 1999–2002 3-Door Hatchback: 4,215 mm (165.9 in) 2002–2005 5-Door Hatchback:4,215 mm (165.9 in) 2002–2005 5-Door Hatchback:4,215 mm (165.9 in) Width 1999–2002:1,670 mm (65.7 in) 2002–2005:1,680 mm (66.1 in) Height 1,395 mm (54.9 in) The redesigned 2000 Accent (LC) sported a more angular body and increased dimensions. It received a minor facelift in 2003, and was given the model code LC2. When the Accent sedan underwent a 2006 redesign, the hatchback continued on sale during 2006 only in Canada, since the hatchback skipped the 2006 model year for the United States. But for Korea, it was the first model with the new nameplate: Verna. The Accent got new 1.5-litre 12-valve SOHC and 16-valve DOHC engines: the 1.3 continued unchanged. A 1.6-litre replaced the 1.5 engine for 2000. This Accent was also the first to get a diesel version, with a 1.5-litre 3-cylinder direct injection turbodiesel, which was badged CRDi. Trim levels were GSi, CDX and MVi: this was standard on most export versions, although some European markets had their own designations with names like DynamicVersion etc. Some markets used LS and GLS. In North America the Accent was available in GL, GLS and GT trim levels only, with the 1.5-litre engine at first, then the 1.6-litre engine from 2003. The GT version was similar to the MVi version marketed in Europe and Oceania, although the body kit was not as overtly hot hatch styled. During 2003 in Canada, the hatchback was offered as a GS or GSi with a 1.5L or 1.6L engine, respectively. It is still sold in Indonesia (as Hyundai Avega, 5-door, with 1.5L engine), India and Russia (produced by TagAZ) as the Hyundai Accent side-by-side with the 3rd generation model which is sold as the Hyundai Verna. It was launched in India in Cctober 1999 and is still in production there.

It performed much better, scoring 10.76 out of 16 points for frontal offset impact and 10.96 out of 16 in the side impact test.[12] The same un-restyled model, this time a 4-door sedan (which is still in production in Russia and Egypt) had been crash tested by Russian magazine Autoreview in 2005.[13] Test was carried out to the same Euro NCAP regulations. Despite the lack of airbags (which are not available in the cheapest version of Accent on the Russian market) it scored 9.9 of 16 for frontal impact.[14] The 2003 restyled model was tested by ANCAP, too. The 3-door hatchback scored 9.19 of 16 points for frontal impact and 9.76 out of 16 in the side impact crash test.[15] 2000–2003 Hyundai Accent (LC) GL 5-door hatchback (Australia) 2000–2003 Hyundai Accent (LC) GL 5-door hatchback (Australia) 2003–2006 Hyundai Accent hatchback (US) 2003–2005 Hyundai Accent sedan (US) 2003–2006 Hyundai Accent5 (Canada) [edit] Third generation (MC; 2005–2010) Third generation (MC) Also called Hyundai Accent Era Hyundai Brio Hyundai Avega Beijing-Hyundai Accent Dodge Attitude Production 2005–present Assembly İzmit, Turkey (Hyundai Assan)[16] Ulsan, South Korea Beijing, China Chennai, India Body style(s) 4-door sedan 3-door hatchback Engine(s) 1.4L I4 1.6L I4 1.5L Turbodiesel I4 Transmission(s) 4-speed automatic 5-speed manual Wheelbase 2500 mm (98.4 in) Length Hatchback: 4045 mm (159.2 in) Sedan: 4280 mm (168.5 in) Verna Transform Sedan: 4300 mm (169.3 in) Width 1695 mm (66.7 in) Height 1470 mm (57.9 in) Related Kia Rio Hyundai introduced a new-generation Accent (MC) at the 2005 New York International Auto Show. A new exterior, larger interior, and CVVT engine are the notable features. A single trim level, GLS, is available in the United States for the sedan. This sedan includes 6 airbags, air conditioning, power steering with tilt, with optional four-wheel disc antilock brakes with electronic brake-force distribution, and a 6-speaker CD stereo. Pricing starts at US$12,665, nearly $2,000 more expensive than a base 2005 model. A premium sport package, priced at $1,350, includes air conditioning, 15 in. alloy wheels, power windows and heated mirrors, and remote power door locks. An automatic transmission retails for $1000, bringing the price of a loaded Accent to $15,015. Hyundai began selling the 3-door hatchback in the United States during the spring 2006 as a 2007 model year vehicle. The 3-door is available in two trims – GS and SE. The GS is equipped much like the GLS sedan, with some equipment deleted for a base price of US$10,415. The SE replaces the former Accent GT, offering a sport-tuned suspension, 16 in. alloy wheels, and other sporting features, along with available dealer-installed performance parts such as a cold-air intake and suspension stress bar. The SE is sold as the Verna Sport in Korea. The Hyundai Accent SR is exclusive to Canada and only 500 have been made, this version is like the Accent SE, but in addition has the fender flares, front lip, rear lip, and exhaust tip. Also included with the SR version is the Clarion sound system with , 4channel Amplifier with 400 Watts, 7 speaker Audio System, with 10-inch (250 mm) Subwoofer in a custom made box. Dash also has a Carbon Fiber Trim Kit added to it. For the 2010 model year a "Blue" trim level has been introduced for the Accent with a base price of only US$9,970.[17] The Accent Blue is only available as a 3-door hatchback with a manual transmission, the sole option being air-conditioning which adds $1,000 to the price. The Accent is presently the third-bestselling subcompact car in the United States, trailing after its rivals the Chevrolet Aveo and Toyota Yaris. In Europe, this model was heavily promoted by the motoring press, and even Hyundai themselves, as a "stopgap" model – that it was intended merely to plug the gap in Hyundai's range until a brand new small family car was launched in 2007. This new car, the Hyundai i30 fills the void left by the Accent and the larger Hyundai Elantra. The name change came about so as to help distance the i30 from the budget reputation of the Accent, and also to highlight that the new car can truly compete in the small family hatchback sector – something the Accent was slightly too small to do, and the Elantra too large. The Accent will continue to be sold in the U.S. in 2008 with an instrument panel overhaul and standard rear cupholders in the SE model.[citation needed] Engines: 1.4 L I4, 95 PS (70 kW; 94 hp) and 127 N·m (94 lb·ft) 1.6 L CVVT Alpha II I4, 112 PS (82 kW; 110 hp) and 145 N·m (107 lb·ft) 1.5 L D I4 turbodiesel, 110 PS (81 kW; 108 hp) and 245 N·m (181 lb·ft) , fitted with common rail direct injection and variable geometry turbocharger In Mexico, this is marketed as the Dodge Attitude: trim levels are 1.4 GL and 1.6 GLS.

Though originally scheduled for production release in the 2006 model year, introduction of the production version has been delayed indefinitely, along with the Kia Rio hybrid.[citation needed] The hybrid Accent is expected to be introduced at the same time as a hybrid version of the Kia Rio, the Kia twin of the Accent.

Both featuring the latest technology in variable valve timing and direct fuel injection. In September 2010 Hyundai unveiled its Russian assembly line and presented the "Hyundai Solaris" a production-ready local version of the four-door fourth generation Accent. Hyundai reported that production will commence in January 2011.[25] The Accent badge remains reserved for the second-generation Accenst still produced in Taganrog. Hyundai released the Korean version of Accent on November,2010. There are new 1.6 Liter engine and 6-speed automatic , 6-speed manual same as Elantra Fifth generation (MD) [edit] Motorsport [edit] WRC Kenneth Eriksson in an Accent WRC at the 2001 Rally Finland Hyundai's Accent World Rally Car competed in an official capacity, spawning three generations, in the World Rally Championship from 2000 to 2003. After development and testing in 1999, the Hyundai World Rally Team and Motor Sport Developments (MSD) debuted the Accent WRC at the 2000 Swedish Rally.[26] The second evolution, Accent WRC2, featured revised aerodynamics, active front differential, longer suspension travel and improved suspension top mounts, although most of the attention was directed at improving reliability. Like its predecessor's, the car's best result in a WRC event remained a fourth place.[27] The Accent WRC3, featuring new dampers and engine internals among other changes, debuted at the 2002 Tour de Corse.[28] Due to budget constraints, the car's development was virtually halted during the 2003 season. In September, Hyundai announced its withdrawal from the WRC.[29] The car, though, in such capable hands across its lifespan as the four-time world champion Juha Kankkunen, ex-Subaru rally-winning and former Group A champion Kenneth Eriksson and former British Rally Champion Alister McRae, albeit the former two in the twilight of their careers, was reasonably competitive at times and showed some promise. Belgian Freddy Loix and 1991 Rally Catalunya winner Armin Schwarz were among the other drivers so long synonymous with life in the works-fettled Accents.[citation needed] [edit] Junior Formula series In India, Hyundai is the sole engine supplier for Formula LGB Hyundai, built by the Chain and Sprocket giant LGB. The single make series is promoted at grassroots level acting as a launch pad for future Formula One hopefuls. The Accent engine is supplied in Stock form albeit after some engine control unit modifications.[citation needed] [edit] References ^ a b Hyundai Accent Named Most Dependable Sub-Compact Car By J.D.

Accent returns as a 2-door hatchback in GS and SE trims, and as a 4-door sedan in GLS form. New for 2010 is the base Accent Blue, which has equipment levels similar to the GS. The Blue has specific transmission gear ratios and other aerodynamic tweaks that Hyundai says improves highway fuel economy up to 9 percent when compared with other Accent models. The sole engine is a 110-horsepower 1.6-liter 4-cylinder. A 5-speed manual transmission is standard across the board. A 4-speed automatic is available on all but the Accent Blue. Available safety features include ABS, front-side airbags, and curtain-side airbags. Power windows and locks and remote entry are optional on the GS and GLS. Accent lends its basic design to the Rio from Hyundai's Kia division, but Rio differs in features, pricing, and warranty coverage. COMPETITION Consumer Guide Automotive places each vehicle into one of 18 classes based on size, price, and market position. The subcompact class is made up of the smallest hatchbacks, sedans, and wagons on the market. These are generally considered economy cars. Our Best Buys include the Honda Fit and Nissan Cube. Our Recommended picks are the Hyundai Accent, Kia Rio, Scion xD, and Suzuki SX4. New or significantly redesigned models for 2010 include the Kia Rio, Kia Soul, and Suzuki SX4.
