Hyundai unveils all-new Accent at the Beijing Motor Show
‘
Lost in the hooplah surrounding the more highly-touted models in Hyundai’s sedan line – we’re looking at you Genesis and Sonata – is the kid brother in the family, the Hyundai Accent – or Verna, depending on what part of the globe you’re in.
Well, kid brother finally got his chance in the spotlight after Hyundai unveiled the Accent at the 2010 Beijing Motor Show as the Verna. With design cues that look eerily similar to the Sonata, the Hyundai Accent comes with a number of engine platforms, including 1.4-liter and 1.6-liter variants that, according to Hyundai, would come with either a five-speed manual or four-speed automatic transmission.
The Accent is scheduled to drop in China at the latter part of the year with the other markets scheduled to follow suit sometime in the next year. In the meantime, you can check out this video of the 2011 Hyundai Accent getting his moment in the sun in Beijing.
Hyundai’s Superbowl Ad features Brett Favre still playing at 50 years old
Brett Favre may not have made it to the Superbowl but thanks to Hyundai, he’s still going to be part of the show.
Hyundai’s Superbowl commercial features no less than the gunslinger accepting a holographic Superbowl MVP trophy. The only problem is, it’s 2020 and Favre is 50 years old. In true Favre fashion, Old Brett accepts his trophy yet still is undecided about his future.
On the contrary, Hyundai assures you that its 10-year/100,000 mile warranty will still be covered at that time, leaving us to ponder that if Hyundai can be so decided on something like this, why can’t Brett Favre do the same?
In the word’s of the brand’s tag line, think about it, Brett.
