This is a very reliable small car. I've been driving them since 1998. Usually regular oil changes and normal wear and tear items are all thats needed. Good on gas- nice looking- what more do you need. It gets you where you want to go and you don't have to spend a fortune to own one.

Very Dependable! Excellent Fuel Economy!

I purchased my 2021 Hyundai Accent in February 2021. I have had no issues with the car at all. Almost 12K miles and no issues!! This car does exactly what I bought it for. It gets great gas mileage and is very dependable. I have driven it from Florida to Maine. On the way to Maine one tank of gas actually averaged 50MPG. I have not been able to duplicate that mileage but usually get in the upper 30s to low 40s MPG around town. No regrets whatsoever in purchasing this vehicle. I traded in a fully loaded 2006 Cadillac DTS for this car and even though this car is not nearly as luxurious it more than makes up for it in dependability and fuel economy. ** Update almost 2 years and 26,000 miles into owning this car and all is still great. I have only been to the dealer for scheduled maintenance. There was one recall having to do with the seatbelts but they took care of it when they changed the oil. Too bad Hyundai quit making this car I would have considered trading it in on a new one once the warranty expires.

So far so good almost 1,000 miles. Love the mpg. Getting 39mpg average street and freeway driving. Love the 7inch infotainment system with Apple car play. Update... 22,000 miles still an awesome commuter!
