Accent 3-Door
The 2010 Hyundai Accent 3-Door delivers a well-balanced package of fun features that not only looks good, but goes easy on the pocketbook, too. From fuel economy to features, bumper to hatch, and paired with the truly-named America’s Best Warranty, there are lots of reasons that the Hyundai Accent 3-Door stands out among reliable economy cars. Fuel-efficient, well-equipped, and surprisingly spacious for a compact, the 2010 Hyundai Accent 3-Door is a great little sport hatch at a great little price.
Economic
With a starting MSRP of $9,970, the 2010 Accent 3-Door is undoubtedly a budget-friendly vehicle. But a low price doesn’t mean cheap in other ways: the Accent was named Best Car Buy for 2009 by NADAguides.com, compared to other leading sub-compacts with a price tag under $15,000.
Fuel-Savvy
Not just the price tag, but the fuel costs, also, make the Accent 3-Door a smart financial decision. Even its city ratings are consistently 27-28 mpg, and up to 36 mpg is EPA-approved in both manual and automatic models in various trims.
What’s more, every automatic models of the Accent 3-Door how come with an “Eco-Indicator” function, which give ongoing feedback on how fuel efficient the driver is being along his or her drive. This car already drives smart—but it helps you drive even smarter by encouraging fuel-friendly driving habits, as well.
Under The Hood
That fuel economy comes from a modest but reliable 1.6-liter I-4 engine, which runs on regular gasoline, paired with either 4-speed automatic transmission or 5-speed manual (both with overdrive).
The other mechanical highlight is the SE trim, in particular, which boasts exceptionally responsive and finessed handling, and also features a B&M Racing sport shifter (for manual models).
Step Inside: Interior Features & Design
Inside, the 2010 Hyundai Accent 3-Door seats up to five occupants, and it gets high marks for both head and leg room compared to others in its class. The best part about the Accent is that it comes with very basic features, for those watching their budgets, but offers a great combination of upgraded trims and available options, so you can custom-combine features until you get the perfect vehicles for you.
Standard on all models are some practical features (such as a 60/40 split rear folding seat) and some entertainment features (such as the AM/FM radio). Air conditioning is standard for every trim except the Blue (ultra eco-friendly) trim, in which it is still an option.
With comfort cloth seats, air conditioning, a good radio, and a spacious interior, even the most modestly-equipped Accent 3-Door provides a comfortable and enjoyable ride. But if more creature comfort is what you have in mind, you’ll enjoy the wide range of features that are available (many are standard in GS and SE trims), including:
- 6-way adjustable driver’s seat and arm rest
- Cruise control
- Power sunroof
- Expanded audio (bumping up from 4 speakers to 6)
- CD player with MP3/Auxiliary Audio jacks
