Given the chance to ask Hyundai's US CEO John Krafcik (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/john+krafcik) a question, what would you ask? If you're a Jalopnik reader, you're apparently curious if Hyundai (http://www.autoblog.com/make/hyundai/) plans to bring over a five-door Accent hatchback (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/2012+hyundai+accent/). Krafcik took the time to answer the question in the affirmative, and then used the opportunity to proclaim that a five-door Hyundai Accent (http://www.autoblog.com/model/accent) hatchback "will kick the Fiesta's (http://www.autoblog.com/model/fiesta/) butt."
Until we see the car in the flesh at the upcoming New York Auto Show (http://www.autoblog.com/2010/11/13/hyundai-confirms-2012-veloster-for-detroit-accent-for-new-york/) and go for a drive, we'll hold off on coming down on one side of the butt-kicking. However, with the recent run of new products flowing from Hyundai there is a strong chance that Krafcik's words will hold true.
