Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

If you think it's impossible to be frugal and also park a nicely equipped new car in your driveway, you need to test-drive the 2020 Hyundai Accent. Offered in three distinct trims—from the price leader SE to the loaded Limited—the Accent provides something for everyone's budget. Its 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine is as efficient as the car's base price would suggest. We've found the lightweight Accent fun to drive and easy to pitch into corners with enough speed to make the tires squeal. In this case, the old saying is true: It's more fun to drive a slow car fast than to drive a fast car slow.

Pros
Sophisticated styling, eager handling, businesslike cabin

Cons
Noisy powertrain, cramped rear-seat passenger space, no hatchback body style.

The 2020 Hyundai Accent comes with front wheel drive. Available transmissions include: continuously variable-speed automatic, 6-speed manual.Improved fuel economy from a new, less powerful four-cylinder engine.Continuously variable automatic transmission replaces traditional automatic.

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
Lacks onboard navigation but connects to smartphone nav apps
Cloth seats are uncomfortable and trap heat
USB port struggles to charge a phone
Enhanced safety aids only available on top trim level

The 2020 Hyundai Accent is about as basic as new cars get, and that’s where its appeal lies.

Pros
City-friendly size
Handsome, if forgettable
Good value even at top trim
More efficient new engine

Cons
No hatchback version
Base trims lack safety features
Rough acceleration noise
Un-fun driving dynamics

By: 
thecarconnection.com

Pros
Perky optional plug-in hybrid powertrain,
futuristic appearance,
well-equipped from EX trim up.

Cons
Base powertrain is pretty poky,
buzzy engine sounds under heavy throttle,
not as fuel efficient in our testing as last year's model.

By:

Pros
Smooth and quiet ride quality
High fuel economy
Spacious seating and cargo area for a compact car
