LOS ANGELES, June 12 -- Hyundai Motor America has announced pricing for the all-new 2007 Accent GS and SE three-door models, as well as pricing for the 2007 four-door Accent GLS. The four-door GLS arrived at dealerships in December 2005 as a '06 model-year vehicle, while the new three-door GS and SE are now arriving in showrooms across the country.

The 2007 Hyundai Accent model lineup pairs a sleek, confident design with unsurpassed standard safety technologies, interior volume, and power in the 3-door and 4-door entry car segments.

All Accent models come standard with extensive safety technologies, including a total of six airbags -- dual front airbags, front seat-mounted side-impact airbags and roof-mounted side-curtain airbags covering both rows of seating. Accent is powered with a segment-leading 1.6-liter DOHC CVVT inline four cylinder engine which peaks at 110 horsepower at 6000 rpm for sporty pick-up without sacrificing fuel efficiency. Accent delivers up to 37 mpg highway with an automatic transmission. Additionally, consumers looking to customize their vehicle will love Accent's 35 available parts and accessories which can be installed at any Hyundai dealership.

  ACCENT GS

In keeping with Hyundai's high-value approach to standard equipment, the Accent GS not only looks good, it also has a remarkable array of desirable features. Large, legible analog instrumentation keeps the driver informed, while a tilt steering wheel and an eight-way adjustable driver's seat with fold-down armrest, reclining rear seat and power steering insure long-haul comfort. Convenient storage areas are placed throughout the interior, including the front center console, driver storage tray, door storage pockets in the front doors and a rear storage tray. Two cupholders are ideally situated between the driver and passenger for easy reach. A 60/40-split fold-down rear seatback makes it easy to load large objects, or to mix cargo and passengers for maximum effectiveness. The rear roof-mounted micro antenna is aerodynamic, flexible and improves signal strength.

Standard features are comprehensive and not typically found in this segment, including six airbags, two-speed variable intermittent wipers, rear spoiler, cabin air filtration, rear window defroster, tachometer, digital clock, two 12-volt outlets and remote hood and fuel filler door releases.

ACCENT SE

The sport-oriented Accent SE takes value in an exciting new direction. SE features standard ABS and four-wheel disc brakes, six airbags, air conditioning, power windows, dual front illuminated vanity mirrors, windshield shade band, power door locks, remote keyless entry with alarm and heated power-adjustable exterior mirrors. On the outside, the 16-inch alloy wheels and P205/45VR16 tires deliver road-holding capability, and fog lights keep the driver's path illuminated in adverse weather. The SE is also equipped with a leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob, and metallic interior accents. Additional storage is available with the seatback pockets. To complete the driving experience, the Accent SE features a sport-tuned suspension with unique springs, strut valving, roll bar and steering gear -- delivering in total a 70 percent increase in roll stiffness over the GLS. A power sunroof and a 220-watt premium audio system with AM/FM/cassette/six-disc in-dash CD changer with equalizer and amplifier are optional.

ACCENT GLS

The well-equipped 2007 Accent four-door comes in a single GLS trim level with either a five-speed manual or a four-speed automatic transmission with overdrive. GLS trim includes a wide range of features, including several items that are either optional or unavailable on competitive vehicles in the segment, including a powerful 1.6-liter CVVT engine, 172-watt six-speaker AM/FM/CD audio system with equalizer, air conditioning, power steering, tilt steering wheel and dual front illuminated vanity mirrors. There are a total of six airbags, including dual front airbags, front seat-mounted side-impact airbags and roof-mounted side-curtain airbags. The Premium Package includes ABS, power windows, door locks, heated power-adjustable exterior mirrors, and remote keyless entry with alarm. The Premium Sport Package adds all the equipment in the premium package plus 15-inch alloy wheels with 195/55VR15 tires.
