Hyundai Accent 
Changes for 2013 amount to the addition of heated front seats starting with the GL model, and automatic climate control in the GLS. Under the hood is a 1.6l four-cylinder with a choice of six-speed manual or automatic transmission. Clean, fluid styling in sedan or hatchback form, a spacious interior, four-wheel disc brakes and winner of the 2012 AJAC award for only $14,809, the Accent definitely holds a strong hand.
