Modern Good Looks
The Accent’s sleek lines, sloping curves, and distinctive chrome grille give it class and style. You can select from three trims and five exterior paint colors to make it your own. Choose the top-of-the-line Limited trim for all the bells and whistles, including 17-inch alloy wheels, a sunroof, foglights, heated body-color side mirrors with turn-signal indicators, chrome door handles, a hands-free smart trunk release, and LED daytime running lights, headlights, and taillights.
Impressive Handling
The 2021 Accent’s 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine gives you 120 horsepower and 113 pound-feet of torque — that’s plenty of power for everyday driving and passing on freeways. The car’s sophisticated suspension absorbs bumps in the road, giving you and your passengers a smooth ride. It comes with precise disc brakes and handles corners well, making for an overall pleasant and safe driving experience.
If you still enjoy the fun and engagement of a stick shift, the Accent’s base SE trim comes with a six-speed manual transmission. A continuously variable automatic transmission with hill-start assist is standard on the other trims.
Savings at the Pump
The Hyundai Accent is easily one of the most fuel-efficient cars in the subcompact segment — a class already known for its good fuel-economy figures. Its ratings have even improved slightly for 2021: With the manual transmission, the Accent averages 33 mpg combined, and with the automatic, it averages 36 mpg. On the whole, the EPA estimates the vehicle gets 33 mpg city and 41 highway.
The Latest Technology
Within the 2021 Accent’s simple yet classy-looking cabin, you’ll be pleased to find all the technology features that are now must-haves in modern cars. Depending on the trim, the Accent comes with an easy-to-use 7-inch touch screen, Bluetooth, three USB ports, satellite radio, automatic climate control, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto connectivity, proximity key entry with push-button start, and a six-speaker stereo. You’ll appreciate that the audio and cruise controls are conveniently located right on the steering wheel.
Every Accent comes standard with Siri Eyes Free, which enables drivers to play music, access apps, and send and receive calls, messages, and emails on their smartphones. Hyundai’s available Blue Link system provides functions such as remote lock and unlock, car finder, and remote start; destination search; roadside assistance; and diagnostics and alerts you can check directly from the touch screen.
Safety and Reliability
The Accent keeps its passengers safe with standard features such as airbags, anti-lock brakes, and traction control. The Limited trim adds more advanced safety systems, such as forward-collision avoidance with automatic braking. You’ll enjoy Hyundai’s renowned warranty on all models: a five-year, 60,000-mile bumper-to-bumper warranty and a 10-year, 100,000-mile powertrain warranty.
