Hyundai Accent Limited Sedan Exterior Shown

A compact sedan low on power shouldn't be this fun, but the 2020 Hyundai Accent feels sporty thanks to a responsive engine, transmission and suspension. A roomy cabin helps atone for some of the Accent's notable deficiencies, including shapeless front seats and weak infotainment features. Overall, the Accent is easy to use, gets great mileage and is refreshingly simple.

My second Accent.

sydneysteelerfan, 01/07/2020

2020 Hyundai Accent SEL 4dr Sedan (1.6L 4cyl CVT)

This is my second accent. A lot of leg room. I'm 6 ft tall. Great gas mileage. Recommend.

Fun and Stylish Ride Packed with Option Goodness!

Mojo-Ridin', 05/26/2019

2019 Hyundai Accent Limited 4dr Sedan (1.6L 4cyl 6A)

Great headroom for a small car and well-thought-out ergonomics regarding the set-up of many option controls. I loved the 2019 model so much that I bought the 2020, as well. Pretty much the exact same vehicle except for the wireless phone charging pad and Pomegranate Red Metallic! Very pretty!

Great CAR!

2019 Hyundai Accent SE 4dr Sedan (1.6L 4cyl 6A)

The outside noise isn't terrible, just remember it is a tinier car so some noise is expected, with the radio on its not even noticeable! Great Gas Mileage

Nice little ride

2019 Hyundai Accent SE 4dr Sedan (1.6L 4cyl 6A)

Excellent fuel economy. Very smooth ride for a small car
