Yup Korea stopped producing Accent quite some time back, so it's just a matter of time KMC stock runs out. The indirect replacement for Accent in Korea is the Venue. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall having a chat with Hyundai SG via Facebook Messenger 2 years back and was told they do not bring in new generation Accent because it is made in India but times have changed and now C&C even brought in Indian-made Seltos. I wouldn't be surprised if KMC decided to bring in Accent from India since they no longer have an entry model competing at the 70k segment, cheapest car they sell now is Venue at 95k.

Actually, it doesnt matter if a car is made in Japan, Germany, Korea or India doesnt it? And to think think that someone was actually up in arms against me few pages ago... I have since came full circle seeing how nice Chinese cars are nowadays and Volvo shifting production to China. If they sell it at 75k now, it will be a winner. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel it doesn't matter where a car is made now but this is still something quite a few local buyers are very particular about, to each their own I guess. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BMWs can be made in South Africa and everyone still drools over it. Anyway, my Japanese built car is not exactly problem free with niggles here and there, so I dont really bother with country of origin. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just changed them on my 12 yo Avante, no comments yet. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
