TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2016 Honda Fit isn't as entertaining to drive as it once was, but it's unmatched in safety and space, thanks to the Magic Seat.

The 2016 Hyundai Accent is a practical and economical subcompact car, but crash-test scores are below par.

TCC Likes

Cheap and cheerful, minus the cheap
Unbelievable interior space
Best safety in the class

Attractive styling, especially the hatchback
Cabin fit and finish
Real room for four

TCC Dislikes

Loud, coarse engine
Front seats could use more support
Busy interior trim

Not as perky as it looks
Head room tighter in the sedan
No navigation, leather, or sunroof—at all
