2021 Hyundai Accent

The 2021 Hyundai Accent remains a straightforward, unpretentious, and affordable vehicle that oozes value. It's really pleasant to drive for an entry-level vehicle; it's brisk off the line and peppy around town, but it fails to bring any such charm to the highway. Nevertheless, it's quite serene and comfortable wherever you are, and very fuel-efficient, too. In our opinion, it's one of the better-looking subcompact sedans out there and bestows its driver and passengers with plenty of comforts and conveniences to enjoy. The base model doesn't come with a very extensive array of features, but it still offers a lot of value at its price. The rear seats are a little cramped and the trunk rather small, but most vehicles in the segment suffer the same troubles. In their crashworthiness review of the 2021 Hyundai Accent, both the NHTSA and the IIHS scored it with good results. All in all, for anyone searching for a high-value and budget-friendly 4-door sedan, the Accent does its best to appease.

With the 2021 Hyundai Accent sedan's price ranging between $15,395 and $19,500 in the USA, there's clearly no difference in performance and specifications, but there is a fair amount of choice in the features that are included with each model. We'd suggest opting for the mid-tier SEL model, which we feel hits the value mark just right. It comes equipped with the CVT to augment the straightforward driving experience and is more efficient than the manual gearbox in the SE. It also gets a seven-inch infotainment touchscreen, which replaces the five-inch screen in the SE, and comes installed with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay functionality. It also gets automatic headlight control, fog lights, and some chrome exterior accents that enhance its modernistic aesthetic.
