World’s First Super SUV

Monday, September 19th, 2011

We see the world altering around us every day with constant technological advances. Well on the 13th of September the Britain based car manufacturer Eterniti revealed at the International Frankfurt Motor Show for the first time the Eterniti Hemera, the world’s first super SUV. This new vehicle is going to be based on the platform of the Porsche Cayenne. It is to be hand made in London producing a remarkable 620 bhp (brake horse power) and a top speed of over 180 mph. Production will begin in early 2012 and will be available for sale by summer time. The automobile manufacturer Eterniti intends to become a boutique luxury carmaker, their production of the “limo-like” vehicle Hemera has a rear cabin, with twin reclining rear seats, twin iPads with wireless keyboards and a drinks chiller.

For a world without limits is the slogan for the Hemera. Although minimum information has been released about the Hemera, many other luxury interior components are expected. The engineering team is led by Alastair Macqueen, who was in charge for the making of the Jaguar XJ220 supercar and has won the Le Mans 24-Hour race with both Jaguar and Bentley. Eterniti is planning to establish its first facility in London featuring a showroom, car build and service center, and a separate area where customers can create custom specifications for their cars, which will be hand-built on site. More of these facilities are expected to open around the world in key international cities, one of them being Hong Kong, starting in 2012.

The UK based car maker Eterniti motors is trying to make a distinct name of its company, debuting its first car as the first super SUV in the world, something that other luxury car manufacturers have not done yet. It is anticipated to sale for an estimate of $238,000. Also due to its compact 4 x 4 dimension, the vehicle has an option of self-drive as well as chauffeured. But of course in this type of vehicle chauffeured drive would be desired.

This vehicle is talked about as revolutionary because it offers intense luxury. Accent Limo’s aim as a transportation company has always been offering clients with a world of pure luxury to get you to your destination in comfort and style. Each of our vehicles is equipped with In-Car Wi-Fi, XM Satellite Radio and GPS Navigation. We offer complimentary bottled water and the latest magazines such as Business Week, Forbes or Fortune and local and national newspapers to enhance your journey. Choose Accent if productivity while travelling is on top of your list when selecting your car service.

A Dream Becomes A Reality for Small Business Owner

Monday, November 29th, 2010


There has been a lot of talk these days about the American Dream being dead – not so says Accent Transportation.

I have included select excerpts from an AZnow.Biz article by Nicole Klauss, “A Dream Becomes A Reality for Ethiopian-Born Small Business Owner Misgana Kebede.” Check out the full link to the complete article at the end.

In May 2008, during the roughest stretch of the recession, a husband-and-wife team made a bold decision to start their own transportation business. Misgana Kebede and his wife, Bilen, started Accent Transportation Services, which specializes in executive car service around the Phoenix area.

Kebede moved to the U.S. from Ethiopia and was drawn to the tourism industry early on. In fact, he worked at various hotels and theme parks after high school and during college. Kebede eventually earned degrees in finance and logistics, transportation and supply chain management.

Prior to the creation of Accent Transportation Services, Kebede was working for Honeywell Aerospace in the supply chain department. Although he was learning a lot about the business, Kebede realized he wanted something more than to work in a cubicle.

“I had the dream of becoming a business owner, and a desire to serve others from the heart,” Kebede says.

When Kebede first started his business, the ground transportation/limousine service industry was being hit hard by the economic downturn.

Companies were cutting down on travel costs, and car and limo services weren’t in demand. Despite the challenges, Accent Transportation managed to stand out to clients. Accent Transportation gains most of its business from repeat customers, and has grown from one vehicle to a seven-vehicle fleet within two years.

“Building a repeat customer base tells us we’re doing something right,” Kebede says. “Seventy to 75 percent of our business is repeat customers.”

Accent Transportation retains its customers because it continually focuses on improving the level of service it provides. It offers easy, online reservation and account management system. Customers can choose from Lincoln Town Car sedans, SUVs, stretch limos and a mini-coach. Kebede also emphasizes the importance of being on time. Read more: http://bit.ly/AZBizMag

Planning a Wedding? Know What to Ask For in Your Greater Phoenix Limo Service company?

Tuesday, September 28th, 2010


A wedding is a once in a lifetime experience, which many brides dream of and plan for months upon months if not years. The last thing you want to go wrong is the transportation. Whether your out-of-town guests require a Phoenix airport limo service, the bride and her bridesmaid require a limo service to the church or the bride and groom need a limousine service to their hotel after the reception, your transportation shouldn’t be on your mind. An unprofessional, late or missing limousine service can add stress, embarrassment and cost to your special day.


Accent Transportation Services dba Accent Limo, wants to provide you with five things to consider as you plan your wedding.


1). The first question to ask is who you need to provide transportation for. Traditionally, the bride and her bridesmaids are transported to the ceremony. The best man usually arranges a ride for the groom to the wedding. The groom doesn’t join the bride in the limousine until after the ceremony. In addition, a limousine service should be provided for the bride’s parents, for the children in the wedding and for important guests.


OFTEN MISSED: proper planning for the number of occupants in each vehicle. You do not want to squeeze people in as it is uncomfortable and it gets hot when wearing formal wear in close quarters. You may need 2-3 limousines to properly transport your wedding party. When planning your transportation, make sure to consult not just with the limousine service provider but with your wedding planner and trusted friends.


2). Consider the safety of your guests. Renting a mini coach to transport your out of town guests virtually eliminates late arrivals to the ceremony. In addition, transportation from the reception back to your guest’s hotel avoids drinking and driving, which can ruin the entire day. If you don’t want service for every guest, an executive van or a mini coach can be a better alternative. In addition, mini coach or bus transportation adds yet another memorable element to your big day.


3). On the Clock: If you have not allowed for enough time for unexpected delays in your ceremony the most unexpected element may be that your limousine service isn’t there or adds to your bill. Always add an additional hour on top of the time you think you’ll require. Think about the time it takes to properly greet in a receiving line or take photographs. Your day should be filled with joy – not stress over timelines. Also, do not assume your limousine service provider has time in their schedule to add an hour or two for your service. They may have another wedding scheduled immediately after yours. Scheduling ahead of time is key to a successful day.


4). Check them Out: You should always know what to expect. A visit to the limousine service to see the car you’ll be driven in and to get a written confirmation is a wise option. On your visit, ask for references, and make sure to ask them what happens in case of a mechanical breakdown. Finally, use of a major credit card proves that your booking was set in stone.


5). Here’s a Tip: Your chauffeur works hard and should be tipped at least 20 percent of the total bill. That said you probably aren’t carrying cash in your wedding dress or tuxedo. Ask the limousine service if they would include the tip in the overall charge.


There are many more things to consider but these five tips will help you on your way toward ensuring the transportation portion of your wedding day is uneventful. We would love the opportunity to provide more tips to make your limousine service flawless.
