2021 Hyundai Accent

Overview

Hyundai has always offered astounding value. Its vehicles are packed with standard features most other automakers only add on with extra cost. All the while, drivers are rewarded with some of the most stylish exteriors and advanced interiors in the industry. It’s no surprise that the entry-level 2021 Hyundai Accent feels like an upgrade from most of its competitors, like the Sentra, Spark, and Yaris. With prices for even the highest trim level starting under $16,000, the Accent is an amazing bargain for the amount of car you’re rewarded with.*

The Perfect Ride For…

Young drivers. The Accent offers everything young drivers crave. The connectivity features and technology make this compact car feel modern, while the demure size makes it easy to navigate and park this sedan. Fuel economy makes it easy to put thousands of miles on the Accent without breaking the bank and the reliability of Hyundai lets drivers do it with confidence. Standard safety features make it easy to drive the Accent in a number of road conditions and even inexperienced drivers will be pleased with how easy it is to guide the Accent through heavy traffic.

Drive and Handling

Each trim level of the Hyundai Accent comes with a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. Capable of up to 120 horsepower and 113 pound-feet of torque, that small engine is more than enough to offer the speed you need for a nimble compact sedan like the Accent. Power is sent to the front wheels via a standard 6-speed manual or available Smartstream® Intelligent Variable Transmission (IVT). Because the transmission always selects the optimal gear for power and efficiency, the EPA-estimated fuel economy for IVT models can reach up to 41 mpg on the highway and 33 mpg in the city. A comfortable yet responsive ride is a result of the fine-tuned suspension and the available 17-inch wheels give improved traction performance.

Key Features

Safety

Most modern drivers are concerned about how their car is keeping them safe and the 2021 Hyundai Accent is one of the safest cars in its class. With the standard rearview camera, you can always see what’s in your path as you reverse out of parking lots or your driveway. The available driver’s blind spot mirror and forward collision avoidance assist help keep an eye out for trouble while you’re on the road. With Vehicle Stability Management, Electronic Stability Control, and Traction Control, you can be sure that the Accent will always inspire safe and confident driving, no matter what nature or the road throw at you.

The 6-way adjustable driver seat allows you to tune the driving position for optimal comfort. Available heated front seats and premium cloth seating offer a more luxurious experience and the 60/40 split fold-down rear seats give you even more cargo space. Available automatic climate control and exterior temperature display help you keep the cabin at the perfect temperature. Technology features like Bluetooth®, steering wheel-mounted audio controls, and USB ports give you control over how you experience every drive.
