Compact Hatchback · what it costs new, what it’s worth used, and who has one near you.
The 2010 Hyundai Accent is a compact hatchback we track across the used market in Canada. It comes in gas (7.9 L/100 km) and hybrid (6.7 L/100 km) forms, so the main choice is fuel — the hybrid earns its premium back over enough kilometres. A 15-year-old one keeps roughly 21% of a current model's market price — what actually matters over five years of ownership.

In the affected vehicles, the brake light switch may malfunction. A malfunctioning brake light switch may cause the brake lights to not illuminate when the brake pedal is depressed or may cause an inability to deactivate the cruise control by depressing the brake pedal.
