2008 Hyundai Accent Pros and Cons at TrueDelta: Owner Pros and Cons by ***diycable

Price or payments

Best value in class. Very smart car purchase if you primary goal is cost effective transportation.

Discounts & incentives

Had a $1500 rebate so purchase price was $10,600. The OTD price was $4700 less than a FIT base model, $3400 less than the local Yaris.

Controls and instruments

Everything is intelligently layed out. Driving ergonomics are good and I like the interior.

Brand reputation & image

The brand is great, the perception is the problem with resale value. Hyundai is making great vehicles. I feel sorry for the domestics.

Powertrain performance

Smooth running engine with good torque curve. Not fast by any means but this is an economy car, not a Ferrari. It drives nice.
