Despite only being on sale for a few months, specifications and pricing have been confirmed for the 2018 Hyundai Accent Sport.
More style and extra features are the two promises from Hyundai for the 2018 model year.
The exterior of the 2018 model sees a new front grille, headlight bezel colour and exterior colour palette.
A mesh-style upper grille with a dark chrome surround and matching lower grille is joined by a new metallic silver finish to the white bezel strip on the upper edge of the headlights at the front end. This is in a bid to enhance the sporty feeling of the car.
For the 2018 model year, the Accent Sport will offer four new exterior paint colours in Chalk White, Lake Silver, Pulse Red and Blue Lagoon which add to the options of Phantom Black and Sunflower.
Interior updates are subtle and include a new speedometer font, new tachometer graphics and redesigned rev-counter redline.
The same 1.6-litre GDi ‘Gamma’ engine outputting 103kW/167Nm will be found under the Accent Sport's hood.
The MY18 Accent Sport will be available as a four-door sedan or five-door hatchback with no change to the list price.
