Used 2013 Hyundai Accent Hatchback Consumer Reviews
First 2013 review! 44mpg highway @ 80mph
We test drove the Honda Fit and Kia Soul but neither got anywhere near the mpg of the Accent. I have a 40mi all-highway daily commute so I wanted something that was economical and comfortable. I typically do around 75-80 and use cruise control often. The Fit was buzzy on the highway (4000rpm) and materials quality was extremely cheap. The Kia was VERY quiet and comfortable on the highway but we just didn't need that much space. My wife has a 2010 Insight which is essentially a wagon, so for road trips or large loads we take her car. The Accent's 6th gear helps immensely with gas mileage. With cruise control set to 80mph and eco mode ON, I am averaging 44mpg hwy at a quiet 2500rpm. Very happy
fun to drive, but falls apart!
Been driving this 10 years now. Too low to the ground for my liking. I prefer my suv over this one. But this is a reliable car to zip around town, and it looks cute on the outside. Front seats are acceptable for comfort. Back seats uncomfortable. Great stuff: Fantastic handling and acceleration! Meh stuff: The brakes are sensitive. Bad stuff: The handle has broken off, and the sunvisor has come off and costs over $100 to replace. The hatchback tonneau cover is a pain in the A... I just ripped it out. The hatchback falls on my head every time I'm putting groceries into the back. Very painful. The accent does awful in the snow. I'm used to AWD vehicles.

Attractive looking fuel efficient powerful well ap
A 2013 SE black Accent hatchback has changed my perception of the Hyundai brand,... I've owned nothing but yotas and Hondas civics and rollas and I was sure this was going to feel cheap and be lackluster in it's performance but let me tell you that it's incredible little vehicle with a very nice interior standard satellite radio and with 138 hp and it's light weight , paired with a smooth fast shifting 6 speed and beautiful 16 alloy wheels sport tuned steering is very well done with great road feel and feedback with a nice weighted feel as the speeds go up... The acceleration from a stop will surprise you , very peppy...
