Edmunds Evaluation: 2007 Hyundai Accent

What is the Hyundai Accent SE? After a week behind the wheel, it does not strike us as a cheap car. It's roomy, solid, well equipped, and offers a decent dollop of true driving fun. Plus there's that Hyundai 5-year/60,000-mile bumper-to-bumper warranty, and 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty, along with its EPA-estimated fuel economy of 32 mpg city and 35 mpg highway. If you're in the market for a cheap — no, make that "affordable" — vehicle, what's not to like?

I actually think it's a nice looking little car, especially as a hatch.

needs 50 more hp

32 MPG city is competitive with the Japanese... good job Hyundai.

I would rather drive a 3 year old Corolla.....and that is saying a lot!!!!

Call me crazy, but I like it. It's cool in a weird way. And as a hatch with excellent fuel economy, it's more desirable than the Aveo.

Still looks like a late 90's Korean car (see Daewoo Lanos).

I've seen at least one in person, in blue. It looks pretty nice.
