2004 Hyundai Accent Review:

There are few cars in the North American market that are less expensive than the Hyundai Accent. It is a price buster: cheap but durable, a no-frills option to handle your driving needs.

The smallest car in the Hyundai fleet doesn’t receive a whole lot of changes for the upcoming model year. As always, Hyundai’s comprehensive warranty covers the subcompact car from end to end. It breaks down as follows: 5-years/60,000-mi. bumper-to-bumper and 10/100,000 powertrain.

The Hyundai Accent got a major facelift for 2003. It included a new engine hood that sweeps more smoothly into the front bumper and fascia. In back, Accent was given a fresh look with new bumpers, quarter panels, deck lid and taillights.

Under the Hood

Though a low-end model in terms of price, the Accent isn’t a pushover on the road. Its twin-cam, 16-valve, 1.6-liter inline 4-cylinder engine produces 103 horsepower at 5800 rpm and 106 lb-ft of torque at just 3000 rpm. That meaty amount of low-speed torque translates into fast launches into traffic, where the Accent easily keeps pace.

All totaled up, the 2004 Accent weighs in at 2300 pounds, which is quite light compared to other models. This gives it a very nice power-to-weight ratio. Combined with an aerodynamic design and well-selected gear ratios that make the most of the engine's torque, the result is one zippy ride.

There’s nothing more annoying than a car that rattles and hums on the road, something Hyundai engineers certainly agree with. For the Accent, they prevented this by giving the subcompact car a stiff body, plenty of sound-deadening insulation and double door seals.

Standard Features, Options Packages and Style

Both Accent body styles sit five passengers. The base three-door hatchback Accent is duly named. It offers air conditioning as an option. However, the base Accent does comes standard with an AM/FM/cassette stereo, a center console, a vanity mirror, tilt steering, intermittent wipers and a 60/40 split folding rear seat.

At the top of the pack is the sporty GT hatchback. With fog lights and a specially-tuned sport suspension, it adds a measure of aggression to the lineup. Also part of the GT mix are alloy wheels, a leather-wrapped steering wheel and a rear spoiler.

There are few options for 2004. Mud guards and floormats are about all that’s available.
