The 2010 Hyundai Accent, available at the leading Portland Hyundai dealership, has recently been named one of the top sub-compact cars around according to the latest Initial Quality Study (IQS) conducted by J.D. Power and Associates.

The 2010 Accent received a very positive review from its owners. According to the study, among the other cars in the sub-compact segment, the economical and fun-to-drive 2010 Accent received the fewest complaints for problems per 100 vehicle units. Owners of the 2010 Accent seem to be very satisfied. The 2010 Elantra, another model popular with Portland Hyundai consumers made it to the top three in the compact car segment.

According to John Krafcik, president and CEO of Hyundai Motor America -HMA, the “pursuit of industry-leading quality” is Hyundai’s number one global priority. It’s fitting that Hyundai’s entry-level and most economical model, the Accent, leads its class in initial quality. It demonstrates that quality and value can go hand-in-hand, added Krafcik. This pursuit of excellence is much in keeping with the founding philosophy of leading Portland ME Hyundai dealership, Bill Dodge Hyundai.

The 2010 Accent from our Maine Hyundai dealership boasts of the following new features: wide interior space with total interior volume that is more spacious than that of the Toyota Corolla or Honda Civic, both of which, by the way, are thousands of dollars more expensive; a powerful engine (1.6L DOHC in-line four cylinder engine with 4 valves for each cylinder with Continuously Variable Valve Timing (CVVT); a fuel-efficient engine that can achieve 36 mpg regardless of the choice of transmission, powering the Accent with up to 36 miles-per-gallon on the highway while guaranteeing to produce low emissions.

The Accent is also proud of its refined and confident design with upscale details including a chrome-accented grille combined with glaring tail lights and strong character lines. At first look, car lovers will be mesmerized with the Accent’s sleek, modern, and confident design

The 2010 Hyundai Accent is clearly the Portland Hyundai buyers’ choice and the value leader in its segment. Its steering wheel audio controls and iPod/USB inputs are just examples of its modern take that is not available in its competing vehicles.

The leading Hyundai dealership serving Portland ME is truly committed to be a class above the competition and to continuously meet the very high expectations of its customers. The J.D. Power and Associates IQS segment award is clear indication that the 2010 Hyundai Accent is the top choice of Fort Worth Hyundai consumers in this category.
