This time, rocking in an alluring tone of red AND sans disguise. While there is currently much debate as to whether the above car is the all-new Accent or perhaps the upcoming Elantra, rest assured - this is the new Accent. The person who sent this to us stated that the naked Accent, named Verna in South Korea, was caught during a commercial shoot in Korea's Incheon International Airport.From the spy shots, it is very apparent that the redesigned Accent is essentially a miniaturized counterpart of the YF Sonata. Another embodiment of Hyundai's new "Fluidic Sculpture" design scheme, the RB Accent incorporates a steeper windshield rake, stretched headlamps, sleek side profile, short front & rear overhangs, and a short boot deck. The side window profile is a familiar sight from the current Elantra, YF Sonata, and the upcoming redesigned Elantra (MD), and side mirrors with turn signals add a touch of elegance.
With regards to the upcoming Accent's powertrain line-up, we have no information. The RB Accent is tentatively scheduled for release in early 2011 as a 2012 model. Stay tuned for more information and images as they become available to us.
