The tested model of Hyundai Accent was introduced in Australia during 2006.

Dual front airbags are standard equipment. Antilock brakes (ABS) with electronic brake distribution (EBD), side airbags and head-protecting side curtains are standard on SLX variants but are not available on the S variants in Australia. This package is standard on all New Zealand variants.

An intelligent seat belt reminder is fitted to the driver seat. The front seat belt buckles are mounted on the seats and the upper anchorages are adjustable. These features improve the fit of the seat belt. Pre-tensioners are fitted to the front seat belts to reduce slack in the event of a crash. A three point seat belt is fitted to the centre rear seat. This provides better protection than a two point (lap) seat belt.
