Here’s Why the 2018 Hyundai Accent is Such a Big Deal to Car Fans
After a long wait and tons of anticipation, we’re thrilled to announce that the 2018 Hyundai Accent has finally arrived at Hyundai dealerships. And yes, it’s everything Hyundai fans have been hoping for.
The new Hyundai Accent may be $250 more expensive than its predecessor, but the automaker has packed it full of new features that are absolutely worth more than the increased price tag would have you believe. The 4-door sedan has immediately made waves on our lot thanks to its elegant, sporty appearance, the unique amount of power under its hood and its emphasis on security, entertainment and luxury.
The 2018 Accent’s gorgeous exterior is truly something special. The vehicle is outfitted with a gleaming chrome hexagonal grille, LED lighting fixtures and ultra-high quality mirrors. Car critics have compared the new sedan to a “semi-fastback Sonata” due to its sporty body design. While the new Accent is certainly a little more edgy in its appearance than the Sonata, it still gives off a vibe of understated modernity.
Inside, the new Accent continues to impress. The vehicle’s cabin is exceptionally roomy, with large, plush seating designed to hold up to five passengers. Head- and legroom are plentiful and there’s never any danger that your friends and family will feel uncomfortable even when the vehicle is at capacity.
And, thanks to the 2018 Hyundai Accent’s full range of awesome new tech features, you and your passengers will never be bored.
USB 2.0 plug-ins are scattered throughout the vehicle interior so everyone will be able to charge their phones whenever necessary. The Accent’s superior Bluetooth connectivity means that drivers can enjoy all their favorite music and apps hands-free and passengers can even connect as needed to share information, music and more. Plus, the new Hyundai is available with an optional 7.0-inch central touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capabilities.
Of course, the Accent is impressive overall–not just thanks to its interior and exterior design. Under the hood, the Accent takes things to a whole new level with its 1.6-liter inline four- cylinder engine. The engine is capable of producing 130 horsepower and 119 lb-ft of torque, which should be plenty for the average city driver. The car comes standard with a six-speed manual transmission and an option to upgrade to a six-speed automatic.
The new Accent is also remarkably efficient, with an EPA fuel-economy rating of 32/28/38 mpg when utilizing the automatic transmission. The manual transmission is rated at 31/28/27.
