Hyundai’s 2013 Accent provides so much more for the price than its steepest competition, the 2013 Ford Fiesta.  When compared to the Fiesta, the 2013 Hyundai Accent scores major points in the “comfort’ category.  It has the kind of headroom and legroom in the rear seats so that passengers can really stretch out more than in the competition’s vehicle.  No one gets left behind when you purchase a new 2013 Accent.  In fact, you will be able to bring along all your tall friends.  Although the Ford Fiesta boasts a slightly larger gas tank, the 2013 Hyundai Accent actually gets 30 mpg in the city to the Fiesta’s 29 mpg and 40 mpg to the Fiesta’s 39 mpg.  Additionally, there are many things that factor into determining the overall cost of a vehicle.  Prospective buyers really want to consider more than only the MSRP (Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price).  Buyers also need to take into consideration the standard features, mpg, handling, performance, resale and warranty.

Even though the 2013 Hyundai Accent may appear to be a “subcompact” car and Motor Trend labeled it the “King of the Subcompacts,” the Hyundai Accent’s interior proportions actually put it in the EPA’s roomier “compact” classification.  The rear seat provides headroom and legroom for your lanky, six-footer passengers and the front seats are equally comfortable and roomy for taller drivers.  Further the 2013 Hyundai Accent also sports a spacious cargo compartment that amounts to 13.7 cubic feet in the sedan and 21.2 cubic feet in the 2013 Hyundai Accent’s hatchback.  And, although it is a subcompact, the 2013 Hyundai Accent provides the kind of sophisticated and full-size safety that buyers want and deserve!  With the controls mounted on the steering wheel, you have command-central at your fingertips.  The convenience of being able to speak “hands-free” to others by means of a voice-activated Bluetooth phone system only adds to the number of safety features. 

Although the Hyundai team hopes its customers never see any of the six airbags on the 2013 Hyundai Accent, it is always comforting to know that they are there to protect you and your passengers in the event of an accident.  Also, the 2013 Hyundai Accent has a high-tech Vehicle Stability Management System that contains all the stability features customers want that is controlled by one extremely powerful management system.  This is essentially your Accent’s “brain.”

2012 HYUNDAI ACCENT

Accent

 

The Hyundai Accent is a winning formula of attractive design meeting extreme value. The fact that it drives well and gets class-leading mileage only cements it at the top of the subcompact class,” claims David Thomas of Cars.com. Expressive, distinctive styling was destined to make its way into a car of this class. Ultimately, the all-new Hyundai Accent destroys convention with the fluid lines and chiseled curves once reserved for cars costing much more. While many subcompact cars skimp on design, we have instead refined our designs to the point of modern, fluid perfection. The Fluidic Sculpture theme that positionsHyundai apart from other similar competitors extends to the all-new Accent, with its chiseled front fascia, bold rear bumper and flowing lines that you normally wouldn’t expect to see on a car like this. It's a bold look for an inexpensive car.
