2006 Hyundai Accent Overview

Introduction

The new Hyundai Accent is a competent subcompact car that's big inside and sprightly underway. It is larger and designed to offer more style, sophistication and content than before.

The Accent is as a GLS four-door sedan with a choice of five-speed manual or four-speed automatic. The Hyundai Accent three-door hatchback is available in GS and SE trim. A 110-hp, 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine powers all models. Power steering, a tilt steering wheel, and a 172-watt AM/FM/CD audio system with six speakers, and 14-inch steel wheels come standard. Safety features include front seatbelt pre-tensioners along with six airbags: dual frontal, front-seat side-impact and full-coverage side curtain. All models include ABS.

For 2006, the Hyundai Accent has been completely redesigned from the ground up.
