Back in 2021, Hyundai sold a total of 19,614 examples of the Accent, which was up from the 15,975 copies sold back in 2020, but way under from what it used to be. For example, back in 2017, a total of 58,955 Accents were sold. So, after only five years on the market, Hyundai is thinking to replace the fifth-generation Accent with a new one, that hopefully will be better. Show
When the Hyundai Accent went on sale with an updated design in 2018, this subcompact sedan came with a more luxurious look than ever before. The accent currently wears a large grille with the headlights swept back, while the hood has a protrusion that connects the headlights to the windshield. On the back, the sedan wears sharp taillights, a chiseled rear bumper, and a simple rear spoiler attached directly to the trunk. However, we expect Accent 2023 to maintain the same overall design as the current model as a built-in model. 2023 Hyundai Accent InteriorAccents today look more luxurious than their price tag. Therefore, we hope Hyundai accent 2023 will share many design elements similar to the models sold today. The U-shaped dashboard separates the HVAC and infotainment systems in style while delivering functional buttons and dials. The rest of the interior has a simple design with clean lines. Hyundai Accent FeatureToday’s standard features include a 5-inch touchscreen, USB port, four audio speakers, Bluetooth, and Siri Eyes Free. Optional features include a 7-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, three USB ports, and Hyundai’s Blue Link telematics system. These features should be brought in for the 2023 model year. Hyundai Accent EngineHyundai currently offers one engine with Accents. Power comes from a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 120 horsepower. A six-speed manual transmission is standard, while a six-speed automatic transmission is available. Front-wheel drive is the only drive available. We expect this powertrain to bring a slight upgrade to the Hyundai Accent 2023. Safety FeaturesAccent’s only standard safety feature is the rearview camera. Optional features include forward collision warning and automatic emergency braking. Accent currently receives an overall four-star safety rating from NHTSA and gets a “Good” rating in five IIHS crash tests. However, these features and safety ratings are expected to be improved in Accent 2023. 2023 Hyundai Accent Release Date and PriceHyundai has not announced an official release date for the 2023 Accent. The price for Hyundai accent 2023 is also still unclear. We expect prices for subcompact cars to remain close to the current model range from $16,400 to $20,505, including destinations without any major updates. 2021 Hyundai AccentThe Hyundai Accent 2021 is one of the few remaining small extra cars on sale today. Most automakers are leaving the market to focus on building small crossover SUVs. But Hyundai remains committed to building a small, affordable, and feature-rich sedan. Hyundai Accent RedesignThe Accent was completely redesigned in 2018 and continues to the 2021 model year without significant updates. That’s not a bad thing because the Accent offers excellent fuel economy, a good mix of features, and a spacious and comfortable interior. It may not be the fastest car on the market, but it’s arguably the average performance for this class. Accent CompetitorsAlthough competitors are dwindling, Accent does have some rivals. For example, the Toyota Yaris is its strongest competitor and our top-ranked extra-small sedan. We also love the redesigned Nissan Versa, which combines a cabin with a surprising premium feel with several safety features and decent passenger space. There’s also the Kia Rio, a car that shares almost everything with accents under the sheet metal, although we think Rio is a bit sportier to drive.
