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.

best value for your money

I needed a reliable transportation with the basic updated amenities. This car won at 19K MSRP, 22K out the lot, 5 year warranty by manufacturer, 3 years of services included, and most importantly for now days: super low miles per gallon.

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

Ok for the price but very poor quality and service

You will have endless problems with the Accent, but it does start and run 98% of the time. Electrical system is very bad. There are no features in the car but the dome light, radio, and other things will work sometimes and the car alarm goes off for no reason. Hyundai service is the worst on earth and you WILL have endless trouble with them taking days to do anything and lying to you about lots of things. Sideview mirror lens fell out after 3 months and Hyundai wants $600 to repair after having the Accent in service for 4 days! Biggest issue is the transmission. It fails 15% - 20% of the time, so you have a 1 in 5 chance your transmission will go out. The shifts are rough and the engine revs high anytime you accelerate. You will regret the Accent if you have ANY problem, and you will have problems.

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
