ENGINE - You may start to notice you’re always the first to arrive.
The Accent’s spirited 1.6-liter 4-cylinder engine with Continuously Variable Valve Timing (CVVT) has more horsepower
and torque than the Toyota Yaris and Honda Fit, delivering the responsive power that city streets were made for.
TRANSMISSION
- Take active control of your driving experience with the Accent’s standard 5-speed manual transmission. Or sit
back and enjoy the ease of the optional 4-speed automatic with overdrive and lock-up torque converter for higher
fuel economy at freeway speeds.
- The Accent SE's B & M Racing Sport Shifter reduce the throws between gears and enhance the sporty nature
of the SE.
SUSPENSION & HANDLING - The sport-tuned rack-and-pinion steering, combined with the
high-performance suspension, gives the SE razor sharp handling that slices through any curve.
