Dubbed the most dependable sub-compact car by J.D. Power and Associates, the Hyundai Accent was inspected and evaluated as recipient of the lowest number of problems out of 100 compact multi-activity vehicle in the prestigious J.D. Power and Associates 2008 Vehicle Dependability Study. Hyundai's 2009 Accent hatchback holds massive appeal to the public. Its endless charm and appeal is rooted in the fantastic features and amenities it has to offer. It boasts low emissions, a high fuel economy of up to 35 MPG, more interior volume than other vehicles in its class, a plethora of standard safety features, and advanced automotive technology all around.
With three different trim levels all priced affordably below sixteen-thousand dollars, the GS, GLS, and SE, and six different trim options for either Manual or Automatic transmission systems or 2-door versus 4-door bodystyles, there is something for every driver with an all new Accent hatchback. Every trim boasts a 1.6 Liter CVVT DOHC I4 engine that delivers up to 110 horsepower and a torque of 106 pound-feet. All Accent trims come standard with FWD drivetrain, meaning the engine's power is smoothly delivered to the front wheels of the vehicle by either the 5-speed manual transmission or 4-speed automatic transmission with overdrive, depending upon the specific trim in question. To top it off, some of the Accent trims also comes with a B & M Racing Short-Throw Sport Shifter (SE), as well.
The Accent interior has much to offer, as it provides increased volume and space to top any other vehicle in its class. With all of this extra space, the Accent provides features like a 6-way adustable driver seat, adjustable head restraints for all seating positions, folding armrest for the driver seat, a 60/40 split fold-down rear seatback, power steering, advanced front airbags, front seat-mounted side-impact airbags, Tire Pressure Monitoring System, and more.
The Accent exterior varies from trim to trim. Power mirrors come optional on the GS and GLS models, but standard on the SE, as does a rear wiper. This 2009 hatchback comes standard equipped with sport-tuned steering and suspension, an integrated roof spoiler, quality wheels that stand out from the rest, and a front variable intermittent wiper.
