... The bump in size on the next-gen Accent should make it about the same size as the old Mistu-powered Elantras from the early 90s, and leave a hole at the bottom of the HMA lineup which could be filled nicely by bringing in the Getz... ohhh i like that thinking.... the Getz/Click here in the U.S thats awesome....

Well whatever it is it looks good tho the trunk looks very small in relation with the rest of the vehicle but people dont buy rios and accents for trunk space. The side profile reminds me alot of the suzuki forenza. Andrew i love the getz, good choice. Just make sure you get the 1.6l at all cost.

Four-wheel disc brakes on the Accent (or is it going to be Talos?). Nice

Everything over the next year to two years is getting a price bump and equipment bump. Disc brakes will most likely be standard on the Accent from here on out. Word is that in the states, the Accent without air is going to be dropped. Also, the 1.6L is apparently going under a re-working. I believe they are trying to squeeze 125 hp out of it.

Is it just me or are all the pics we have seen so far of the Kia Rio and not the Accent.
Considering the Accent is meant to be coming out before the Rio where are all the pics ?

Yes.
I believe these are Rio pictures.
The Accent 5-door pictures show a much different car, and THOSE pictures are of the new Accent.

There is a picture of the Accent in this weeks Auto Express in the UK, its quite clearly a Hyundai but looks very similar to the latest Rio pictures. From the pics I have seen it looks like the only difference between the two is only very slight (lights & bumper).
I have been looking for the picture on the net but not found it yet. It could be a photo shop that auto express did from the Rio pictures but I don't think it was.

This is similar to the picture of the new Accent in Autoexpress a few weeks ago, all the existing pics seem to be of the Rio.
