Propulsion and Performance
Front-wheel drive 2011 Hyundai Accent has a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine that extracts 110 horsepower and 106 lb-ft of torque. A five-speed manual transmission is standard on all models except the GS, which gets a four-speed automatic transmission is optional on all but the entry-level GL. In performance testing, manual-equipped accent has grown from zero to 60 mph in 9.4 seconds.
As for fuel economy estimates of Focus models equipped with the return of four-speed automatic EPA 27 mpg highway mpg and 30 mpg city/36 combined. Models with five-speed manual transmission is rated at 28 mpg highway mpg and 30 mpg city/34 combined.
Security
LL 2011 Hyundai Accents are equipped with seat side airbags and length side curtain airbags. Antilock brakes are available for the GL, but are optional for the GS and GLS sedan hatchback. The SE sedan anti-lock braking is standard.
The Accent has not been tested using the new government, a procedure more demanding crash test. Sine 2010-rating (which is not comparable with other tests of 2011) was a perfect five stars for occupant protection and four stars for front occupant protection in side impact front and three stars for rear passengers in case of side impact.
In tests conducted by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety has received the second highest Accent "acceptable" rating for frontal offset, but the worst "poor" rating in side impact tests. In the braking test, stopping with ABS accents of 60 km / h on a respectable 122 yards without it, shooting the distance to 155 meters.
Interior Design and Special Features
There is no work around the fact that Accent interior style is clear and inexpensive materials makes it look less attractive than competitors like the Nissan Versa. The front seats are comfortable, however, and the driver's seat height adjustment standard is a nice touch. The lack of a tilt steering on entry-level model GL may make it more difficult for some pilots to become familiar, however.
The rear seats offer enough legs for adults of average size. However, in and out of the seats in the hatchback model requires some interference due to limitations of space between the front seats and door sills. Carrying capacity is the average vehicle in this segment, with about 16 cubic feet of space in the sedan models and over 12 cubic feet in the trunk of the sedan.
Driving Impressions
Like many small cars, Hyundai Accent 2011 performance depends largely on the transmission choice. A five-speed manual makes the car feels reasonably peppy, while the four-speed automatic bogs down. Similarly, sport-tuned suspension SE models produces better handling, while the softer springs installed GL, GS and GLS versions emphasize more stable ride. Despite a quiet interior in this segment, the Accent engine noise is often nullify this advantage in acceleration.
