Freshly overhauled last year, the 2019 Hyundai Accent sedan is roomier, safer and more fuel-efficient than before. It drives even sportier than it looks, thanks to a nicely calibrated suspension and an available manual transmission. We're not talking autobahn-ready performance here, but the Accent is surprisingly nimble, and it makes for a sensible and stylish subcompact choice.
Pros Comfortable ride and impressively quiet cabin Spacious interior with solid, rattle-free build quality Long warranty coverage provides peace of mind Excellent real-world fuel economy
Cons Enhanced safety aids only available on top trim level USB port struggles to charge a phone Cloth seats are uncomfortable and trap heat Lacks onboard navigation but connects to smartphone nav apps
Kia made some noise at this week’s 2020 Auto Expo in India, and among its big reveals were two concept cars: the Sonet and the Seltos X-Line.First up is the Sonet, which is an entirely new compact SUV from the Korean carmaker. It’s a stylish little concept that features Kia’s design cues, most notably the signature tiger-nose grille. In fact, it looks a lot like the Seltos from the front end. The Kia Sonet aims to cater to the tech-savvy crowd, with a cabin that boasts a 10.25-inch infotainment and navigation system with UVO connect, a premium Bose audio setup, and an intelligent manual transmission. Its maker has yet to reveal any further details, but Kia has confirmed that this will be launched in India by the second half of this year.
