2018 Hyundai Accent Features Innovative, New Changes
The new 2018 Hyundai Accent is headed to Algonquin Hyundai dealer lots soon. Are you excited? We certainly are–especially now that we’ve gotten a glimpse of the vehicle’s newly upgraded exterior, luxe interior, mind-blowing tech upgrades and all-new Advanced High Strength Steel chassis.
Like other 2018 Hyundai models, the new Accent has received a makeover that’s sure to grab it top marks on this year’s best-of lists. The Accent’s upgraded exterior has an upscale, luxurious feel thanks to its new projector headlamps, LED taillights, sunroof and 17-inch alloy wheels. No matter what paint color you choose, those shiny new wheels are sure to inspire some double-takes from other drivers.
Under the hood, Hyundai has made the wise decision not to change what’s been working well so far. The new Hyundai Accent will feature its traditional 1.6-liter GDI four-cylinder engine paired to either a six-speed manual transmission or an optional six-speed automatic. This small but mighty engine generates up to 130 horsepower and 119 lb-ft of torque, which is perfect for the busy city driver or the suburban car pool.
Notably, the new Accent boasts some groundbreaking dynamic and safety features thanks to the automaker’s use of Advance High Strength Steel in the vehicle’s body panels.
According to a recent statement from Hyundai, the new Accent is composed of 54.5 percent Advanced High Strength Steel (an increase of 13 percentage points compared to the vehicle’s fourth generation model) from the automaker’s captive Hyundai Steel plant. The additional steel improves the Accent’s torsional rigidity by 32 percent and helps to improve noise isolation, collision energy management and fuel efficiency. With the addition of available Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist technology, Hyundai has made sure this new Hyundai model for sale is one of the safest yet.
Inside the 2018 Accent’s cabin you’ll find a wonderland of luxury. New, dramatic textiles add style and comfort to the interior while metallic detailing amps up the vehicle’s contemporary flavor. The new Accent is equipped with stellar tech features like a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple Carplay capabilities so you can listen to your favorite music and access your favorite apps with just the touch of a button. Hands-free smart trunk release, heated front seats, proximity push button start, automatic temperature control, dual USB charging and SiriusXM satellite radio round out the Accent’s remarkable suite of interior components. You’ll enjoy all this in a cabin that’s the largest yet in the Accent lineup.
