Comfort
Passengers in the back seat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Volkswagen Jetta than the Hyundai Accent, due to its greater head- and legroom.
Offering just a little more front head- and legroom than the Volkswagen Jetta, the Hyundai Accent may be a little roomier and more comfortable for the driver and front seat passengers.
Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Hyundai Accent as you will with the Volkswagen Jetta, as they get the same number of miles per tank of gas.
Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). Based on MSRP, the Hyundai Accent is clearly a better financial choice over the Volkswagen Jetta.
Another consideration is the Destination Charge, which is a standard charge for transporting the vehicle to the dealer from where it's built. The Hyundai Accent and the Volkswagen Jetta have similar Destination Charges.

Since the Hyundai Accent is much slimmer than the Volkswagen Jetta, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot.
If you go with the Hyundai Accent, you'll have a much easier time finding a large enough space to park than you will with the Volkswagen Jetta.
Drivetrain
The Hyundai Accent has much less torque than the Volkswagen Jetta, which generally means that it won't feel as fast or powerful.
Handling
The Hyundai Accent has a smaller turning radius than the Volkswagen Jetta, allowing you to more easily maneuver in and out of tight spots.
Performance
The Hyundai Accent has less horsepower than the Volkswagen Jetta, so it will probably be somewhat slower.
