Hyundai is to be commended for its efforts to provide value for consumers and the new Accent is further proof of this. It feels a lot more expensive and luxurious than other vehicles in its price class.
In addition it’s pretty and doesn’t look in the least like a functional model. The interior finish is good and there’s an impressive range of standard features. It also handles much the way you’d expect from a car in its class.
