The functional Hyundai Accent, available in hatchback and sedan body styles, strolls into 2014 showing off its chiseled exterior, introduced in 2011, complete with an aggressive front fascia, striking headlamps, deep line enhancements, a thin grille, and wraparound taillamps. Small but mighty, the Accent is more spacious than you'd expect and it comes with a strong amount of standard/optional features, including a Premium Package upgrade. Due to its strong 1.6L four-cylinder engine, the compact car also receives above-average acceleration times and is incredibly fuel efficient, making it a reliable choice first-time buyers.
