Marami ring fans ang Accent eh. Turbo diesel lang, akala nila race car na.
We actually have an Accent right now, iniwan nung isang kakilala namin dahil nagBicol siya and had nowhere else to park his car so pinagamit nalang muna samin. Mabilis naman, for a subcompact. 2-liter compacts are still faster though.

August 16th, 2012 12:45 AM #16Most people are ignorant on how fast diesels can go, a tuned old turbo diesel accent will destroy most 2-liters, heck even the 2.5 GTV montero stock destroys most 2-liters like the slow ass altis except for the 2.0 lancer fortis and the 2.0 FD civic since those two are like rockets

LOL. My daily drive happens to be an Altis 2.0V, and like I said, I also happen to have an Accent with me this week. Mas mabilis yung Altis. Ikaw, nadrive mo na magkasunod?
And if you're referring to the 2.0V CVT Altis, that accelerates faster than most other 2-liter compacts because it's the lightest. Get your facts straight.

Oh, child.
Altis 2.0V: 1250 kg
Civic 2.0S (FD): 1295 kg
And power there is aplenty. Despite the on-board computer softening power delivery when starting off in first gear (likely to preserve the transmission), the car scoots to 100 km/h in just over 9 seconds, quicker than everything else in the class bar the Focus diesel.
With the extra 200cc and 10hp, one can slash 0-100km/h times by 2.72 seconds from the 1.8's 11.32seconds. Keeping the "ECO" indicator lit, 100km/h cruising in 7th gear is a quiet 1,800rpm, with instantaneous consumption of 26 kms/liter. Its rival, the Honda Civic 2.0-liter 5-speed auto, does 15.15kms/liter, while 0-100km/h times were barely 11.10seconds. Note though that the Honda has a surplus 14hp but also weighs 45 kgs. more than the Altis.
Truly, the K20 is better than the 3ZR-FE. But the engine is not the end all and be all of acceleration.
