Hyundai Accent - Generation 3 (2006-2010)

HYUNDAI ACCENT (2006-2010)

First made available in December 2005, the Accent is Hyundai's pitch in to the sedan market at the lower scale. The GLS came in first with a much "basic" GL in late 2007. While the successor didn't get a diesel in sedan form, it has one in the hatchback.
