new hatch from hyundai rumored to have a 2.0L (wrx maybe???) turbo engine ![http://www.autoweek.com/files/specials/2005_frankfurt/accentsr/images/z09.jpg](http://www.autoweek.com/files/specials/2005_frankfurt/accentsr/images/z09.jpg) ![http://www.autoweek.com/files/specials/2005_frankfurt/accentsr/images/z10.jpg](http://www.autoweek.com/files/specials/2005_frankfurt/accentsr/images/z10.jpg) ![http://kr.img.dc.yahoo.com/b12/data/hyundai_motor/SE_copy.JPG](http://kr.img.dc.yahoo.com/b12/data/hyundai_motor/SE_copy.JPG) It seems to me that the 5 speed automic on this concept is an indication that this prototype is equipped with Hyundai’s new electronic AWD system. And because of this as well as the turbo not to mention all the sporty cues says that this is Hyundai homongenization of their WRC car. Even though they will probably tone down the interior I have a strong feeling that this trim of the Accent will be produced soon. It looks as though it is closely based on the Kia Spectra5. Also combine that with the fact that Hyundai annouced that they are releasing the new 7 seater Santa Fe this fall, which oddly enough seems to be chasing the Tribeca. And this shows that Hyundai is now chasing after on of the base price point of the next automitive manufacturer after Honda, Subaru. ---

front looks like a TC… back end looks like a TSX (the dark insert around the exhuast)… and the rear part of the rear side window looks like a BMW… pretty cool are those LED fog lights or something? ---
