Hyundai 's fourth-generation Accent Sedan is proving to be the strongest competitor yet from the Korean automaker in the subcompact segment.

The all-new Accent - available in both hatchback and sedan form - features a class-leading 138 horsepower as well as class-leading fuel economy of 30 city, 40 highway miles per gallon, for starters.

Another distinctive feature is the fact that the mileage rating is the same for all models and transmissions, requiring no special package like some of the competitors.

It's clear that Hyundai 's latest Accent is a departure from purely seeking buyers in search of lower sticker prices, as this new subcompact car features strong styling and a class-leading powertrain.

The new Accent (available now in both four-door sedan and five-door hatchback models, but not the outgoing three-door hatchback) is powered by a 1.6-liter direct injected four-cylinder engine that puts out 138 horsepower at 6,300 rpm and 123 lb-ft. of torque at 4,850 rpm.

The Accent is the first subcompact car to feature direct injection technology on a gasoline engine, and is the only car in the class to offer a six-speed manual transmission (automatics are also six-speed).

The Accent Sedan comes in just a single trim level, GLS, but offers equipment packages to appeal to a broader range of buyers.

The Accent GLS comes standard with a six-speed manual transmission (automatic optional with included Active ECO), a trip computer, tachometer, tilt steering wheel, 14-inch steel wheels and power door locks.

Standard safety equipment includes front, side and head curtain airbags, Vehicle Stability Management, ESC with TCS, ABS, EBD, brake assist, four-wheel disc brakes and active front head restraints.

Selecting the Comfort Package will add air conditioning, an AM/FM/XM/MP3 radio, power windows and mirrors and cloth door inserts. This package will add $1,750 to the $12,445 base price of the car.

Equipping the Accent GLS with an automatic transmission will bump the price to $15,195, and adds the same features found in the Comfort Package.

If the Comfort Package isn't enough, the Premium Package can be selected for an additional $1,300, adding keyless entry, steering wheel mounted audio controls, cruise control, Bluetooth, premium cloth seats, piano black interior accents, a sunglasses holder, slider center console, fog lamps, 16-inch alloy wheels and bodycolor door handles.

All pricing fails to include the $760 destination charges.
