Hyundai Upgrades 1.4 Accent

Do we still need to buy Shell V-Power or XCS for this new Kappa engine so it won't knock knock? If yes, then Hyundai would be the most stupid company despite the infamous issue. dang!

I just don't get how Toyota & Mitsubishi could run on **** gasoline and Hyundai can't. After 2 years, I hope they already figured it out in this new engine - if not, then this upgrade doesn't make any sense.

we need user feedbacks! interested din ako dito, kasi without the knocking issue this is a good deal talaga.

1 week old Accent 1.4 Kappa Dual-CVVT owner here:

so far maganda at hindi underpowered ang sasakyan. point of comparison 2011 Toyota Vios 1.3E AT ng wife ko:

May hatak sa overtake. sa NLEX at SCTEX (100-120kmh). Nag log ng 150kmh sa TPLEX, walang vibrate at hindi hirap (hard break in)

kasi manual, wala ABS/Airbags.

hoping na walang kakatok sa makina in the long run
