Hyundai Accent vs Toyota Avanza Comparison

Compared to the previous generation Hyundai Accent which was gradually beginning to show its age after all these years, the new Accent sports some serious alterations to its exterior design. The all-new design has the same fluidic design silhouette as its predecessor, however, it now looks much sharper and contemporary than ever before.

The new Hyundai Accent now comes with increased levels of fit and finish, which do go well with the revised interior design. Even from the inside as well, the car feels plusher and richer compared to the model it has replaced.

The Hyundai Accent is being offered with a petrol and a diesel engine, however, it is the latter which feels much punchier to drive. In fact, the performance outputs of the 1.6-litre engine in the Accent makes it the most powerful car in its segment.

Despite its compact dimensions, the Toyota Avanza comfortably seats seven full passengers with ample space in all the three rows, which indicates how cleverly engineered the inner cabin of the Avanza is. The third row of Toyota Avanza feels spacious enough for adults as well, while at the same time, folding the third row opens up to an incredibly spacious boot.

The recent facelift which the Toyota Avanza got has made the front end of the MUV look very stylish. The introduction of bi-LED headlamps with split-in-between design of them, along with bolder and bigger looking front grille with redesigned fog lamp housings, definitely has added some character to the front fascia.

The new Toyota Avanza now also gets some premium features, the absence of which did make the previous model very boring from the inside. The introduction of a much-enhanced touch screen infotainment system with Apple Carplay and Android Auto, roof-mounted monitor for rear passengers and automatic climate control are some features which have now uplifted the overall in-cabin experience of the Avanza.
