I have a muscle car for the summers. Needed a winter/run around car. Was looking at used, for $11.000 the car was a steal. auto, a/c. Worry free driving and in a strange way, fun little car to drive.
Nice but viberates

I like it feels nice to drive, comfort, average 33mph do more hwy. as much as 38. The problem I have it has a vibration more noticeable at 58 or above, took it in to get checked they didn't know what it was, said another one had that also, was checking into it, bummer to feel that on a new car

It's 2021 and these cars are all over a decade old, yet still an excellent value on the used market. With Honda Fit and Toyota Yaris demanding extremely high prices, the Accent flies under the radar with much more reasonable prices. My Accent is at 165k miles of often very demanding city driving. With this car you MUST use all of the RPMs when merging onto the highway from an uphill ramp, put the pedal to the floor. Even despite needing to be treated like this, the engine holds strong and should continue to as long as it has oil. This car also benefits greatly in the snow by not having stability or traction control, which robs power from the drive wheels if slippage is detected. In a front wheel drive car you need to use the throttle to help straighten the car out in the event of a slide, and this car lets you do that without inhibition. With snow tires this car absolutely cuts right through even deep snow on unplowed roads, limited only by the ground clearance of the front end. I can't emphasize enough how fun this car is to drive in the snow for an experienced driver. The interior space is incredibly simple but not lacking in comfort. The seats do just fine, and headroom is good for me at 6'2". The cabin feels open and sightlines aren't heavily impaired by the A pillar like some other cars *cough Dodge Avenger cough*. A few downsides to this car are the strange placement of the starter, which requires you to lift the front end of the car and put it in gear (very dangerous) in order to remove. This car also uses a timing belt rather than chain, so expect to service the belt every 80k miles in order to keep your engine intact -- though for folks who work on their own cars this might be a plus. This car also has only a 4-speed automatic transmission, so fuel economy takes a hard hit when traveling above 75mph due to the high engine RPM. I'd suggest this car to anyone who needs a good winter beater, or someone who wants a car which feels older in it's simplicity of operation without the questionable reliability of an older car.

I decided to put out the extra money for the top of the line. Larger tires and sunroof. Glad I did. First sunroof I've ever owned, and it's great. Car is fun to drive, great handling, though I wouldn't want to drive it on really rough roads--too bumpy. Two door hatchback is the way to go if you don't have kids.
Best Little Car!

After owning my F250 Ford Crew Cab with a 460 gas burner, it has been nice to get the bleeding stopped. I looked at this car many times. I also looked at the Toyota Yaris. I kept coming back to the Accent because I felt the quality was the same and the price was better. I am so pleased with everything about this car. It drives so smooth. I love the simplicity too. I plan to have this car for a long time. It's all I need in a car. The interior has a high quality feel and look to it. Lots of little storage compartments. The back seat can fit 2 adults comfortably. I may have cruise control added later.
