Hyundai Accent to “kick Fiesta’s butt” says U.S. CEO John Krafcik

2012 Hyundai Verna/Accent

Given the chance to ask Hyundai’s US CEO John Krafcik a question, what would you ask? If you’re a Jalopnik reader, you’re apparently curious if Hyundai plans to bring over a five-door Accent hatchback. Krafcik took the time to answer the question in the affirmative, and then used the opportunity to proclaim that a five-door Hyundai Accent hatchback “will kick the Fiesta’s butt.”

Until we see the car in the flesh at the upcoming New York Auto Show and go for a drive, we’ll hold off on coming down on one side of the butt-kicking. However, with the recent run of new products flowing from Hyundai there is a strong chance that Krafcik’s words will hold true.
