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

    I bought a 2020 Hyundai Accent Ultimate hatchback

    In Canada, we were able to get the 5-door 2020 Hyundai Accent Ultimate. It came with all the options you'd want in a inexpensive, yet sporty, sub-compact car. It actually has a nicer design than the 5-door 2020 Elantra GT, but admittedly has less power than the Elantra GT N-Line lol

    Ridiculous

    I have a 2020 accent that I surrendered back to my financial credit union. Insurance companies won't insure it for less than 750.00 a month, because of the anti thief. It was taken in for 2 recalls and still can't get Insurance. So I will never buy another one.

    Shifty Nightmare

    For what it was, it was a good car. Great gas mileage, completely ho hum and forgettable. Exactly why I chose a 6sp (only avail on lowest trim model) which sacrificed a lot of driving aids and safety features. The six speed in this Hyundai might be the worst manual transmission in the world. Very rough shift and letting the clutch out doesn’t mean it’s engaged. It chooses when to engage almost picky. Difficult to shift and nearly EVERY GEAR grinds. I have driven manual transmission vehicles all of my life and in a few short months that I had this car I stalled it twice as many times as I stalled every other card ever going to combined
