I have averaged 39.5 mpg with my best tank of gas achieving 46 mpg. For basic transportation I am impressed with the quality build & quietness of this car. The CVT is more direct than my previous Toyota Corolla which had a rubber band feel to it. The Ease of entry & exit better than a Toyota Camry which has less head room. The warranty best in North America, 10 years or 100,000 mile power train warranty. The SEL comes with the larger 7" info screen, 4 wheel disk brakes, tilt & telescoping steering wheel, center arm rest & heated mirrors. 15" Alloy wheels instead of steel wheels with hub caps. If you must have a sun roof you will need to step up to the Limited model. There is Now dual port injection instead of direct gas injection. This eliminates intake manifold carbon issues, as dual port fuel injectors keep those intake valves clean. Also NO turbo-charger to fail. The worlds first CVVD "Continous Variable Valve Duration" which took 9 years to develope and increased fuel efficincy. The attention to detail in this car is much better than expected. The car is very tight & very quiet inside. I was so impressed after renting an Accent from Alamo, I returned home & bought one.

Little Car Saved my Life

I was hit by a SUV that was going 50 miles per hour while I was stopped and waiting to turn left. I was flung into oncoming traffic and miraculously survived in my tiny safe car. All praise to God! I do recommend this little gas saving- lifesaving vehicle!!

great little car. more comfortable and larger that you expect. gas mileage is spot on the epa numbers and the warranty is superior to any other maker. reliable and affordable, it cant be beat. ** 6 month update. first service at 7.5k, 0 charge under the 36mo scheduled maintenance warranty. ** 1 year update 1 year in and original review still stands

I bought a 2022 Hyundai Accent in March,2022.I was a little hesitant at first because I had only had Sonatas previously.I really like this car,it is great on gas,has plenty of power and very comfortable to drive.I love the cloth seats and so far have no complaints.

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.

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.

T-bone Accident - Surprisingly Tough

I bought this car a little less than a year ago after having my car totaled when I was rear ended. I didn’t “want” this car. I just needed to get a dependable and affordable car while we paid off my husband’s new car. I didn’t like how small it was and worried about another accident in such a tiny car…especially since I’m often driving my 9-year old. This past Thursday, as I entered an intersection with a green light, a Nissan Altima ran their red and appeared in front of me. I was going about 40 mph and had no time to brake or do anything except slightly turn my wheel in a fruitless attempt to dodge the obstacle. As I was about to hit, all I could think was, “this is gonna be bad”. However, all parties were fine. No injuries! I have a seatbelt bruise and some soreness, but that’s it. My airbag turned off right after we bought it and we had never taken it in to be fixed, so it didn’t deploy. A fault in this car, but it didn’t affect the outcome, so I’m grateful it won’t add to the repair bill. I couldn’t open my driver door due to the front panel being slightly pushed in. However, when I climbed out of the passenger door and looked at the front of the car I was so surprised! The front on the driver’s side took the brunt of the damage since I had slightly turned my wheel at the last second. The front bumper(?) is torn up and cracked in several places. The hood, side panel, and front metal piece are bent and dented. The driver side headlight is scuffed and the grill is in pieces. The radiator and some other front parts are damaged, but in no way does it look like I was in a t-bone accident. The car was still drivable to get home (though running hot due to radiator), and the front end doesn’t look like a crushed soda can like most cars you see after a similar impact. Maybe it’s because it was two sedans involved, or maybe it’s because I was only going 40 mph, but all I know is, this little car held up extremely well!!! Shockingly well! Suddenly all the fears I had when buying such a small car, seem null and void. This little thing is tougher than she looks! Hard to review much else since I’ve only had it for a year, but so far, so good. She runs smooth and is such an easy car to drive. I would recommend this as an affordable and dependable option. Or for a a new driver.

Bought one of the last Accents ever made since they are discontinuing the Accent after 2022. The dealer said I got one of the last two Accents in Michigan. This car is actually the first car I've driven extensively so I have nothing to compare to really. All I can say is, with the 'sport' mode this car has some giddy up and go. In town driving averages 30-40mpg and highway driving has gotten up to 48mpg so far. Very quiet, sometimes forget it's running. This vehicle is not for people who want a lot of tech, there is no GPS but the car does connect to any smartphone. This is not a flashy car as far as tech and features but is solidly built and drives like a dream. Have had it a year already and no needed repairs, very minimal maintenance. If you are looking for something inexpensive, simple, safe, dependable, and with good gas mileage, this is your car.
