Full Review

Hi,

Am writing this review with a view to share my experience related to the purchase of this car in the month of June this year, if you guys trust, better buy a car which is not outdated, having variants available.

I realise this now, if you see, A/C loovers are loose, most of the defects even dealers wonder.

This car might have queened the segment, but majority of you would agree that its high time to look at alternatives, no doubt the car is better compared to the alternates available with Maruti & GM in terms of power and efforts of company directly touching base with the customers to resolve their problems, but I feel look at the alternates available.

Best wishes,

Kapil Malik

Hi,saying the Dzire gives you the feel of the M800, please take the test drive once again as Dzire uses Fiat manufactured Diesel Engine, as far as the selection between the three is concerned, Verna is the best, as the there is no match for CRDI engine still and the contemprories do not stand anywhere near. Go for Verna is my suggestion.

hi im planningto buy a new car but confused between Accent, verna and dzire? Accent is offering CNG wih it but its design too old and verna i read is best in diesel. Dzire though cheapest of all didnt satisfy me in Test drive i felt like driving my old 800 i mean i didnt feel the power. pls help?

Kapil - Thank you for your Reply. Its very useful. My usage will be almost for long distance drive, thats why i prefer for LPG kit. Whether we can expect any new version of accent in coming new year 2010? Regards Pravin

Hi, as of now, there is no news of discontiuation of the production of this car, infact, there was a news to make this Bharat IV compliant, meaning this car will remain in the market. for DZire you can very well get the approved LPG kit into the petrol version. feasibility depends on the your daily running of the car.

Hi Rocky, I took my Accent on highway on as much as 140 kmpl, it responds terrific, with good road grip, atleast do not bothered from this side.

Hello Gentlemen, I am planning to own a Hyundai Accent Executive in about a month or couple. I’ve heard and read a lot of positives about this Car; however, people seem to have major concerns with its road grip, apparently, the Car drifts at higher the velocity (refferring to the speed of 100-120 KMPH)… Is this true? I am a frequent traveler and Cars with wobbly grip is indeed a major concern. I request your opinion on this matter. -Rocky

Hi, choosing betwen accent & dezire, if the criteria is FE only, Accent is around 10 in the city and 13-14 with A/C on the normal speed of 60-70 km on highway, Dezire should be more than this but if you look at comfort Accent is better, Dezire I have seen starts rattling after a year or so, whether doors or elsewhere. as far as EURO IV compliance is concerned, all the cars whether accent or dezire would have to be EIV compaliant, best time to buy is December with loads of discounts.

Hi Kapil & frinds, I need a help in deciding b/w Accent Executive & Dezire. I am concerne about the mileage . What is the mileage of Accent in city & highway with AC full on? What is the best time to buy a car for better discounts & offer? As per your comments, Accent is not compatible with EURO IV & you have mentioned that it will be after April 2010, should I buy / book the car after april 2010. Please suggest......awaiting for your reply.
