Bought new Accent GLE - silver colour in the month of Dec – 2005. Ex showroom price 5.29 lakhs - Delhi. Have done 4, 000 km since then. Driving experience is very smooth. On high way if you restrict your speed limit to 80 km/hour it would give you a significantly good mileage of 18.5 km/ liter. In city it gives me between 14 to 15 km/ liter with AC, actually depends on the road & traffic condition. Air conditioner is effective at the rear as well. Good for city driving but you need to be patient. Steering wheel is very responsive. While taking high speed sharp turn the car very stable. Engine is very quite and peppy. Has good boot space which is ideal for family who is staying with parents, very helpful in long journeys or vacations. For the rear passengers car provides decent leg space. Can accommodate six people if need be. Front seats are not comfortable for tall people. The driver’s leg gets tired if you are driving for more than 2 hours, specially the ham string area. There should be some kind of support close to the accelerator, kind of retractable small foot support for long driver. over all interiors are good but the plastic used for the interiors could have been of better quality, at present its quite sub standard. Even the wind shield switch should be similar to that of head lights because while taking turns you accidentally touch the wind shield wipers, which could put scratches on the wind shield. There should have been more some space in the dash board. People with a budget of 5 to 6 lakhs should seriously consider this option. People with a requirement of high fuel economy should consider CRDI version. Over all I would rate 5 on 5. There is scope of improvement in the car. One of the members have raised a question about me putting car in low mileage section. Answer to his question is that the mileage segmentation is only for the city conditions.
