Easy to use car with a great warranty.
It is a very reliable vehicle with a 5 year warranty, which is more than any other car. It is easy to drive, compact, light and easy to understand and maneuver. It almost never has problems and is easy to get it looked at by Hyundai if it needs servicing.

Love my small sporty car.
My husband thinks it is a little too small at times. I love the size. I think the seats are comfy. I enjoy the fold down back seats. My daughter loves the paint color. We rented this car when we went to Vegas for the week. That is when I decide that I wanted to buy this car.

Great gas mileage, nice features.
I get excellent gas mileage in my black 2019 Hyundai accent, usually around 35 miles per gallon. One feature I like very much is the rear view camera which makes exiting my driveway or parking spots much easier. I also love the audio system in the car.

Love my 2019 Hyundai accent.
I love my car! It is very good on gas, vehicle maintenance, and the oil changes are inexpensive. It comes with a backup camera, Bluetooth, apple car app, frog lights, eyeglasses, carry compartment and the outside mirrors are foldable. So you can get standard brand new for under $15,000.

Hyundai accent is a great first car for anyone.
The vehicle I own has not given me any problems within the time I have been owning it; which is well over a year already. It offers great & easy Bluetooth connection and gives off a smooth, quiet drive. It is a great first car for anyone because of how simple it is to control the vehicle.

Safe, comfortable ride with great gas mileage.
I have owned this vehicle for over a year now. The car has a smooth ride. It is low enough to the ground for my elderly mother but has enough clearance for some older/dirt roads. The interior upholstery is easy to clean and carpets are easy to vacuum. I particularly like the reverse camera for backing up. I bought this vehicle as a safe transport for my daughter with working ac, it has not disappointed. It gets great gas mileage, which is always a plus. I have not experienced any issues so far and hope to keep it that way.

It is fast. Good on gas. Cheap.
My car is black. I bought it brand new. I have only had one issues. The malfunction light came on but it wasn't anything major. The gas cap wasn't put back on right. Because it is black in the summer is it super hot but the air conditioner cools it down quickly.

I absolutely love the sunroof.
The 2019 Hyundai accent limited edition has a very smooth ride and gets excellent gas mileage. It is equipped with a sunroof, heated seats, power windows, and Bluetooth connectivity. This car is very comfortable and spacious, while keeping the small, sporty look that I desired.

The worst car I ever had.
No special features and it is too small. It feels like it could break at any moment. It is way to compact even for me at 5'2'. It is very uncomfortable. The road noises are much louder. No Bluetooth, no cruise control. It sits way to low. Seats hurt my back and bottom. Took it for and 8 hour drive and I wanted to die in the first hour.

Everything wrong!
I have a 2016 bought with 11 miles on it. 3 times before 3,200 miles, the car has while driving had every single light come on the dash and the speedometer stop working. Keep telling me nothing wrong. I now have 5,920 miles on it and have vibration problems Wich have always had. Have had tires rotated, still there, car speeds up and slows down for no reason when on flat be roads. Head lights get moisture inside ever scince new brakes moan and I am told all this is normal. Okay sure it is. I think not. A lemon if you ask me.

Hyundai is grand gives me a great overall experience.
Makes weird noise, handling issues, turns, other than that it needs more than that. Reliability comfort is decent. Seats are fine. No problems with anything else. Car is kind of long. The paint color is decent, like the smooth drive. The engine is kind of loud.

Hyundai accent: simple, yet reliable.
It does not have an arm rest for the driver, the car has really good mileage and reliability. It has a cool touchscreen. Overall it is not pretty or luxurious, but it gets the job done. It was pretty cheap for the reliability I get out of it. I travel 200 miles at a time. It is nothing to flaunt, but there are no complaints.
accountCircle Cristhian S
Good car for the price, but electronic system could be better.
My car is great on gas mileage and comfort, but there is things that really annoy me. The navigation system tends to bug out a lot along with the touchscreen system. It has not broken down as of now so I can happily say that up to this point it seems to be a reliable vehicle.
accountCircle Gabrielle M
Safe and reliable car with great gas mileage.
My car is great on gas, I get about 30 mpg. It is a very reliable and safe car. My car is very comfortable and can comfortably fit three across in the back seat. I do wish that there was a navigation feature in the car or the ability to use carplay. It is very useful that you can plug your phone in to the front, but can only be used for music.
accountCircle Rebecca M
Good for the price, not for the speed.
I bought this car after owning one previously 3 years ago, and I enjoy it although it was a rushed purchase. I needed a car and I enjoyed my 2016 accent so I figured I would enjoy this one too. Car runs fine, except for a few engine misfires. Overall the car is nice, and a good value for the money.

A little bit noisy, but a decent drive and technologically sound.
It is okay to drive, but it is a bit noisy when starting from a full stop. The Bluetooth setup was painless and I have had no problems of any kind with the technology. Being a Chicagoan, I do appreciate that the interior of the car does heat up quite quickly - a very helpful feature during the winter.

Economical and latest technology vehicle.
I love the great gas mileage, over 40 miles per gallon. Also love the apple play feature so I can plug my cell phone in and you the online navigation system. I like having a 5 year warranty on the vehicle - Hyundai beats most other manufacturer warranties.
accountCircle Leah M on June 17, 2021
Cute and pretty little car.
I love my car. It doesn't accelerate as fast as I would like it too but its roomy and very clean. The automatic lights make it easier for me because I always forget to turn them off. It rides smooth and is quiet. The engine under the hood is super clean and beautiful. The color on the outside is a pearlescent color.

I cannot think of any. I love everything about it. There is absolutely nothing negative that I can think of to day about this car. I spend too much time telling everyone what a great car it is. It is just a pleasure to drive.
