Here is what we have from the new Accent CRDi
- It runs on cheaper fuel, it’s compact, fuel-efficient and so much fun to ride.
- “The timing of the launch of the Accent Hatch diesel supports our long-term brand innovation and awareness strategy on the strength of our fuel-efficiency value proposition to our customers.”
- With gasoline a little more than 10 pesos than diesel, HARI’s timing is impeccable.
- the 16-inch tires really polishes it off (the MT has 14’s). The lines on it induce an active and energetic, on-the-go appearance, which makes you want to dive behind the wheel ASAP and I love that in an automobile.
The 1.6L engine may only have 124 horses underneath the hood but the 260 Nm of torque makes driving this barely-a-ton Accent Hatchback CRDi time well spent. The quick and snappy acceleration comes in especially handy when overtaking and maneuvering through traffic in Metro Manila. An averaged 14.7 kilometers per liter city-driving and putting the Accent CRDi through its paces.
The suspension is just a tad stiffer, not to the point of being uncomfortable, than the gas variant but the difference is negligible.
