2020 Hyundai Accent Limited - Test Drive and Buying Advice 

0:00 Walk-around and interior 3:43 Driving 7:39 60-0 and 0-60 9:05 Highway 13:30 Build-and-price and competition

It's actually a nice looking car

A simple and reliable daily driver. 👍🏾

10yr/100,000 warranty I AM IN!!

A solid vehicle all around compared to the others it competes in the class; I'd take this ! Maybe not the limited, but the SEL

I recently got my 2020 Accent with the 6MT. Just crossed 500 miles and I love the car so far. While yes the steering and handling isn’t quite as sharp and responsive as some other manufactures do but the car is very straight forward, it’s what you expect. The one place I think the car really shines is in ride quality, great for a subcompact without being totally dead on steering feel.

I rented a Hyundai Accent, with 39,000 miles showing on the odometer. The car drove great and it averaged 50 mpg. It rode nice for what it is, I was impressed and pleased. I never got tired driving it, was comfortable and controls were nice, easy to reach and use. The one I rented wasn't a limited trim, it was the base model. Again it is a good car for what it is and the mpg was great. What you get for price vs car, it gets my vote.

The 'Limited' edition is beautiful and overall good car... love this subcompact car.

Honda Fit is a very practical car with lots of storage and is fun to drive however it's huge drawback is price. 2020 Fit's MSRP is the highest in the mainstream sub-compact segment. Fully loaded 2020 Fit will be $23k out the door and even a mid-trim Fit with the CVT will be $20k out the door. Furthermore, Honda dealers are notorious for giving very small discounts. 2020 Chevy Spark is extremely fun to drive and extremely affordable too. You can buy a new Chevy Spark for $11k out the door for manual transmission and $12k out the door for CVT as long as you negotiate well. Spark can be driven on the highway too with no problems. If I wanted a subcompact car, I would either buy the Spark if I want to save money or buy the Yaris if I want a really fun car to drive.

I think the Hyundai accent is very cute and a beautiful car. I have a 2015 and it drives very good. Very smooth and excellent braking system. Really like the car

Glad you are pushing the car more than other reviewers to really know what the limits are. WIllow Run is near Ann Arbor. Go Blue! Agree the Yaris iA is more of a driver's car, but the interior is tiny.

This was great!! Thank you so much!!

Great review! I am planning to buy this car, and it seems good for its price.

I have 2017 sedan as a secondary get around beater and was wondering if those wheels fit my ‘17. Nice review!

i watch this video everyday cause i want this as my first car

The Yaris doesn't come with a center armrest. That alone would make me choose the Accent

I love this car

Thank you for sharing.

Great review.

This car is only 300 pounds heavier than a Miata. In manual transmission it’s a lot of fun

Can you please review a manual accent if you get the opportunity to do so? There isn't a single manual accent review on RU-vid.

Nice, is this the GoPro hero 8 black you're filming with?

I like it☺️

This car is better than the yaris and versa

Does it have LED Headlamps and LED foglamps ? As in the lights are white or just yellow bulbs ?

I bought the SE manual, and I would have to agree that it does most things well, but there's nothing exceptionally bad nor outstanding. But owning a Mazda3 for 4 years, I find the Accent steering feel is very numb. I measured 9.1 seconds 0-60 from your video, but take into consideration that your car in Limited trim is about 200 lbs heavier than the SE manual. The rotational mass of the 17" rims may also be a deterrent.

This is Nice Car

This route looks very familiar. Do you work with Chris from Winding Road Magazine? Chris just did a review and POV drive of the 2020 Accent Limited as well. This is probably the same car he had in his video review.

I recently rented a 2019 Hyundai Accent and found it far peppier and a little roomier with someone in the passenger seat compared to my Chevy Sonic. Also, much better fuel economy. I think my Sonic was less expensive but in hindsight I wish I had gotten this car.

These types of light sedans are going extinct now. In my city, Hyundai had the Accent (light/minicompact sedan) which is discontinued, the Verna (subcompact sedan) which would be discontinued any day, the Elantra (compact sedan) and Sonata (mid-sized sedan). I own a 2011 Accent and a 2016 VW Passat. The 2011 Accent I use for office commute - easy to park, maneuver, good fuel economy, yet good enough to pick up my kid from daycare, grocery runs etc. and use Passat for longer drives with family. Not everyone requires a big car all the time and happy to drive a hatch.

Does it come with a nav system? Is it considered to be safe (or at least safe for a car in the subcompact class)?

I rented a Nissan Versa, cvt transmission was bland. The volume knob on radio had gave up and had to only use volume control on steering wheel. It felt heavy compared to the Hyundai and the gas mileage was not as good as the Hyundai either.

would u say this is a good car for a new driver?

The front seat is not upright and it's pushed to the back. Surely it's not enough leg room.

hello, can you write specs of alloy rims on this car ? I want buy it. Thank you.

Any trucks coming soon?

its hyundai verna in india

Yesss praise my yaris iA more

How tall are you im 5’8 it seems perfect for me

CAN YOU BUY ME ONE???

Seems like you redline it every time you accelerate....

ill go for a base priced accent now that accord and camry have priced themselves out of business with $26K plus base cars. If I want luxury I will go with a luxury brand not a japanese overpriced car

Why bother getting a limited? the point of the accent is it's supposed to be a cheap basic economy car

What is the reliability and maintenance if this car I had a Hyundai in the early 2000 that thing was a piece of shit never bought another Korean car due to this I have a Mitsubishi mirage and that little monster is a tank

What shocks me is that the 2020 Hyundai Accent Limited, despite being the fully loaded top trim and costing so much for a sub-compact, still looks basic on the inside and drives basic too. I don't care too much for heated seats, sun roof, proximity entry smart key etc. For the top Limited trim, I expect a more powerful engine, upgraded suspension, auto brake hold, and leather seats. None of that is offered. Keep in mind, the 2020 Hyundai Accent Limited will cost around $22k out the door. Even the Accent SEL will cost around $20k out the door. For that kinda money, I would rather buy a compact sedan.

very bad noise isolation

Oh my God who cares about the ride quality let alone how fun it is to drive Hyundai gives you a lot for your money!

In india... it's like a BMW M5 TO US and the Indian version is a lot better than this one

Poor baby don't want get those manicured fingers dirty.🥱🙄

Check out the Indian version of this called the "Verna". Way cheaper and way more features. Hyundai is just ripping you off.

For a TOP TRIM LEVEL* this is absolutely totally pathetic
