The latest generation of Hyundai's subcompact family car, the new Accent, has just been launched in Malta.
The latest Accent is bigger than its predecessor with much more space inside.
Local importers Meridian Enterprises of Birkirkara said the new car was clearly a family-oriented model but its simple lines have a sporty yet solid appeal.
Hyundai engineers have raised standards in their quest to protect driver and passengers in the event of a crash. The reinforced body shell is complemented by solid steel side impact beams, two air bags and seat belts equipped with pre-tensioners.
