Jazz > Accent Blue > Altis > City. Hehe..

Hi SG. Eto ba yung accent gls blue? Actually, ang tagal kong pabalik balik sa hyundai site for the accent gls blue. I looked at the price and pasok. Also checked the features it has and napawow rin ako.

The only thing for me really that might really sway mo is the fuel economy nalang talaga. so far, kita ko sa other threads ang FC ng 1.4 MT and AT, pero la pa sa GLS blue. If meron kayo idea, Id love to hear it. I think hyundai quality has risen na so its very attractive for somebody like me na limited ang budget.

iilan lang kase kumuha pa nung 1.6... mas popular talaga yung 1.4...

Mismo. Kasi the 1.4 is more than enough kung city driving lang with occasional highway drives.

The 1.6 Blue has better power to weight ratio than the 1.4, it might give better or just the same FC with the 1.4 A/T. My friend in HARI tested the 1.6 Blue in highway drives, it easily obtained 19km/L in controlled condition like constant 80km/h speed. Then the average city driving is 8.5km/L to 10.5km/L. Decent enough. Power is adequate.

Thanks SG, Im strongly thinking about this 1.6 blue, it would be one of the cars i would visit sa mga showroom nila. I've read the engine knock issue and sabi naman dun yung 1.4 minsan ang affected but mostly due to the fuel. And even then na fix naman yata with the right fuel applied so for me the Accent is still very attractive. Saka yung 1.6 di ko pa naririnig na may knock issue so its a plus, although that could be because most picked the 1.4 than the 1.6.

In your opinion SG, yung difference na 120,000 between 1.4 and 1.6 na accent, bawi ba ni accent in terms of features, performance, etc.? Natanong ko lang kasi, Ive read that some of the owners changed their tires for the 1.4 to bigger 16' ones. So there is the added cost. You know a lot about this, so I do respect your opinion on the matter.

Definitely, plus you got the rare top of the line variant. Wala ka na masyado papalitan or i-modify. We'll purchase an Accent 1.6 Blue later this year. Hehe.

Aba, congrats. Mauunahan mo pa ako nito im sure. If that be the case balitaan mo naman ako. Salamat ulit sa info. Pagiisipan ko maigi between Accent variants, Jazz variants, Altis, and City variants.
