2010 Hyundai Accent Review Summary
As one of the least expensive cars in its class, the 2010 Hyundai Accent, ranked 11th by ACG in the Affordable Small Cars class, is a decent option for those wanting a bit of bang for their buck. The Accent is available in four trims: base Blue, GS hatchback, GLS sedan, and the SE hatchback. Unfortunately, the low base price model comes with caveats; standard features, including air conditioning, power windows and doors, and an audio system are not available for the basic model, so consumers may be spending money well by upgrading to a higher trim. Consumers craving a choice in engine should look elsewhere since all Accents come standard with a 1.6-liter four-cylinder that generates only 110 horsepower. Maybe not surprising for a Hyundai, five-speed manual transmission comes standard, though automatic is available on all models except the base. Performance is not something consumers will find reviewers boasting about, though despite the fact that most reviewers lament over weak acceleration, the Accent has enough basic pickup on highways and is sufficient for daily driving. On a positive note, most reviewers find the interior to be well designed and comfortable with easily readable gauges and higher quality materials than models of previous years. The Accent’s exterior is about average for its class, and loyal Hyundai lovers won’t be disappointed. Notably, there are red flags in terms of Accent safety. Features are more sparse than desired, and the insurance industry, while giving it a rating of ''acceptable'' for front-end, rear-end, and roof strength, doled out the lowest possible ''poor'' rating for side-impact collisions. All things considered, the Accent won’t turn any heads, but it is a viable option for consumers looking for an inexpensive, fuel efficient daily drive.

2010 Hyundai Accent Review Handling
The jury’s still out on the 2010 Hyundai Accent’s handling ability. Most reviewers can agree that the higher trims perform well, though they note that the base trims – which have smaller tires – are a bit too skittish, even for its class.

2010 Hyundai Accent Review Safety
The government gave the Accent a top 5-star rating for both driver and passenger protection in a front-end collision and awarded the Accent 4-stars for front passenger protection and 3-stars for rear passenger protection in side-impact crashes. It received a 4-star rollover rating, indicating a 12% chance that the car will roll over in a single vehicle crash. The insurance industry had more reservations about the safety of the Accent, giving it only an ''acceptable'' rating for front-end collisions, rear-end collisions, and roof strength, and giving it the lowest possible rating of ''poor'' for side-impact collisions. Standard safety features include six airbags. An anti-lock braking system with Electronic Break-Force distribution is not available for the base model, though it is optional for the GLS and standard with the SE.

2010 Hyundai Accent Noteworthy
Motortrend called it the ''blue plate special of the day,'' and the Washington Post called it the ''best subcompact car for the money.''
