The Yaris has more standard interior and safety features, as well as higher safety scores. Manual models have a shift indicator that tells drivers the best time to shift gears for improved fuel economy. The Yaris hatchback, however, has less cargo space than the Accent hatchback.

Recall Date 2015-09-08 Description Hyundai Motor America Hyundai is recalling certain model year 2009-2011 Hyundai Accent vehicles manufactured March 1, 2009, to February 11, 2011.
Units Affected 99500 January 16, 2008 -- Still recovering from the Detroit auto show, on this day three years ago, Motor Trend brought to light an intriguing race car concept -- with just three wheels. In the affected vehicles, the brake light switch may malfunction. By today's standards, that's on the slow side. All models include a 10-year, 100,000-mile limited powertrain warranty. This recall is an expansion of 13V-113. . Also optional on the Blue model are power windows, power door locks with keyless entry, and heated power mirrors.

Air conditioning is standard on all but the Blue trim, where it's optional. Exterior The Accent Blue has black side mirrors and door handles; those parts are body-colored on other trims.
The recall began on October 21, 2015. All models boast extensive standard safety equipment, including seat-mounted side airbags and roof-mounted side-curtain airbags, in addition to advanced front airbags. Among the least-appealing items is the central swing-open bin that's shaped like an ashtray but isn't; the actual ashtray is an odd removable cup that sits atop the console. Also, like most small engines in inexpensive cars, it's a bit noisy and thrashy at high rpm. SinceLastVisitFilter false, 1557140826399 ; listingsSearchManager.
