One of the most anticipated cars on the American hybrid vehicle market is the Hyundai Accent Hybrid auto. Rumors about this automobile began circulating when Hyundai attended the Guangzhou International Automobile Exhibition in 2005 with a hybridized Accent.

Despite the fact that a closely guarded secret, those in the know inform eager hybrid aficionados that the Hyundai Accent Hybrid will feature a 90 horse power, 1.4 liter engine as well as a 16 horse power electric motor. This is said to enhance the overall fuel economy by an estimated 44%.


This contradicts rumors that would have had the Hyundai Accent Hybrid use the Lambda 3.3 liter V6 engine of the 2006 Sonata. Other rumors insist that this hybrid car would make the pain at the gas pump go away because it is supposed to provide 45 miles per gallon, making it comparable to a Civic II 2 wheel drive CVT.

At this point, this is all conjecture and although possible Hyundai Accent Hybrid buyers are eagerly waiting to get a lot more data, they have to be content with the reality that the earliest scheduled release date is 2009. Price has not however even been discussed for the North American market, and it is anyone’s guess how competitive the sticker price of the Hyundai Accent Hybrid will be. Our guess is that it will be very competitive with other like models in it’s class.
