For what it costs the cheapest version of the Accent, there cars have similar interior space, but are generally slower (like a Ford Fiesta 1.4 80 bhp), not so with the Ibiza 1.4 100 hp, which accelerates or about the same as the Accent and its price is similar.

Along with the Ibiza 3p 1.4 16V 100 hp Reference, the Accent is the cheapest in the cars that have three-door bodywork, engine around 100 hp and a length of about 4.0 m. Those that are cheaper are less powerful (like the Clio 1.2 75 hp) or smaller (such as the Chevrolet Kalos 1.4 16 V to 94 HP).

The equipment of the Accent is more abundant than the Ibiza (has six airbags as standard).

The Ibiza has more optional equipment: You can have stability control, developer of speed, radio controls on the steering wheel, fog lamps or alarm, among other things. The only factory installed options that may have the Accent are metallic paint, air conditioning and Bluetooth phone connection.

Dynamically it is satisfactory for its engine and general softness, but it is not entirely for its stability.

It has a gasoline engine that is smooth and-usually-silent. Its acceleration is similar to other cars of its size and power and can have a normally low fuel consumption.

It has good throttle response at higher gear when not required a lot of acceleration, for example in town. On the road happens to other low-cylinder naturally aspirated engines: you must use the gears quite often little room to advance or not losing much speed in strong and steep ramps.

Most of the interior coatings provide a good feeling, without becoming a refined car. There are things that do not give a pleasing result at all, like the front seats (that hold little) or certain plastic doors (which are easily scratched). Not all controls are well placed, no driver in sight (such as fog or controls the height adjustment of lights).

It has a normal space for its size, and there are aspects that make it functional. The back of the rear seats can be tilted in two positions. There is a lever behind the front seats for the occupants of the rear seats can break down the front seat before standing up to exit.

The Accent is sold body with three or four doors. The four-door body has a different style to the three: it has three volumes and the trunk lid instead of the gate that has three.
