How did this happen? Hyundai, according to autospies.com, "has been killing it for the past 24 months." Enough with the flattery, our blushing faces can't take it anymore.
This summer promises to be a good one for us. As we have already released the Hyundai Sonata Hybrid (uh hello we got 3 in on Friday and sold them all Friday! I didn't even get to sit in one!!); we are now ready to embark on the Hyundai Accent and Hyundai Veloster sales. The Accent and Veloster are already stirring the waters and we don't even have them yet! And as the comparisons roll in we are starting to see what people think of our brand. Here's a good one...
"...just see the 2012 Honda Civic, which is the epitome of milquetoast. When you compare it against the 2011 Hyundai Elantra, there's no way any buyer in their right mind would choose the Honda -- unless they're a loyal shopper wearing blinders." -Auto Spies.comBut now the 2012 Hyundai Accent is setting up to battle for the number one spot amongst all of the small cars out there. Be prepared! We can clearly see that Hyundai is proud of their brand, check out this video!
We don't think that you'll have a problem accepting this new car as one of your own. Without even an option of a 3 door, this 5 door hatchback or 4 door (baby Sonata look alike) - we think you should be pleased.
