The 2006 Hyundai Accent will be available for sale starting this fall, and while prices haven't been announced, in order to remain competitive against the likes of the Chevy Aveo and company, expect the little four-door Hyundai to start at slightly more than its current base MSRP of $13,995. Currently, a three-door variant sells for $12,995, so if none is offered it is entirely likely the four-door model will be reduced in price to compete against its peers that reach down into the sub-$13K price point.
While the new Accent might not raise pulses, the redesigned entry-level Hyundai has the power, the quality and the features to help it redefine value in the subcompact sector.
