Pics: 2006 Hyundai Accent
Permalink  





The redesigned Hyundai Accent comes to market this fall on a slightly larger wheelbase. Hyundai says interior room will be greater and rear legroom will notably increase. The GLS sedan will be the only body style, and will be powered by a 1.6-liter 4-cylinder with variable valve timing that will deliver about 110 hp. The Accent features six air bags, including side-impact air bags for rear passengers.


Looks much better than the new Rio IMO, inside and out.

The front looks like what Subaru is going after with their new cars.

The grille is ugly, but other than that, it's kindof a "cute" car. The interior design is, decent, but looks cheap. Of course, for the price segment, everything's going to look cheap.

I think it looks alot like the Echo. I just hope it's an improvment of the current Accent.

Good, I'm not the only one who saw a similarity between those and the Tribeca's headlights. Everyone on C/D only said that the grille looked like a Corolla's.

It does look like a Corolla grill and Tribeca headlights.  It's not bad, though, even thought the front is odd.

I don't see a grille resemblance with the Corolla. The first year, maybe, when they had the Toyota emblem up high (and it looked dumb) but not anymore.

I don't like the grille because of where they put the logo.

That would be it.
