I wish to share my thoughts on the Hyundai Accent GLE, as a recent owner of the car.
I purchased the GLE 16 months back, as a 2008 model second hand vehicle which had done only
4000 Kms and driven by a single owner.
Prior to this I have used the Maruti Zen and Opel Corsa, I have been driving cars for 15 years now.
I find the Accent to be a very competent and classy sedan .
==My ownership experience: ==
Extremely spacious in the inside, you will need to get used to low seat position - Not a problem if there are no very old people in the family. Classy interiors with beige color and wood finish trims on the dashboard and doors
Tiltable steering wheel, All 4 power windows, remote boot opener, fuel lid opener and rear window defogger
3 cup holders in front, bottle holders on side doors.
Back door child lock and window lock available for safety of children. Very good A/C - cools fast and comfortable even in lowest cooling level. Powerful engine with good pickup during city drives. Very good brakes - vehicle stops almost immediately upon braking. Very good ground clearance - I have driven over all sorts of bumps but never scraped the underside.
Short and easy gear shift and vehicle can be driven in 5th gear @ 45 km speed. Mileage is 12 KM/ltr in Bangalore city driving conditions. Very polite and friendly Hyundai Service Centres. Service cost comes to 3500 every 10000 Kms. In the last 16 months I have not had a single issue with the car.
I hope this review benefits any prospective buyers - if you are skeptical, then not to worry - the vehicle won't disappoint you.
