2017 Hyundai Accent Used Price Estimates

Just as the market grows for ever-roomier sedans and crossovers, so does the demand for smartly packaged small cars that can perform tricks like their larger counterparts. The 2017 Hyundai Accent is a top choice in this category thanks to a satisfying combination of performance, utility, comfort and style. Choose a sedan if you want a trunk or a hatchback if you want maximum utility.

Though there's nothing flashy about the Accent, it's a handsome car in either sedan or hatchback style that will endure the daily grind with minimal fuss. It's one of the quicker cars in its class, which you'll appreciate with every merge into freeway traffic. It offers both manual and automatic six-speed transmissions with solid feel and tuning.

What's more, the Accent is surprisingly quiet and soft on the road, so even those with longer commutes won't regret choosing this Hyundai over a larger, more expensive car. Passenger space is also generous, with plenty of backseat room for two adults. (Technically it's a five-passenger car, so we can't recommend placing three friends in the backseat if you wish to remain friends.)

There are compromises. Not only are the Accent's fuel economy estimates lower than many of its subcompact rivals, we found it difficult to match those numbers in real-world driving. The hatchback's rearward visibility is also challenging, and there's no optional rearview camera.

The 2017 Hyundai Accent is available as a small four-door sedan or a four-door hatchback. Both seat five passengers. The sedan is available in base SE and Value Edition trims, while the hatchback comes in SE and Sport variations. Each uses a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine (137 horsepower, 123 pound-feet torque) and either a six-speed manual or automatic transmission. The Accent is front-wheel-drive.

The SE sedan comes standard with a six-speed manual transmission, 14-inch steel wheels, keyless entry, air-conditioning, full power accessories, a height-adjustable driver seat, a tilt-adjustable steering wheel, a driver-seat armrest, a 60/40-split folding rear seat, a trip computer, and a six-speaker sound system with a CD player, satellite radio and USB/auxiliary inputs.

The Value Edition sedan adds a six-speed automatic transmission, 16-inch machine-finish alloy wheels, rear disc brakes, hill start assist, steering-wheel audio controls, cruise control, Bluetooth phone connectivity, and a center console storage box with a sliding armrest console.

The SE hatchback shares the same features as the sedan but adds a rear window wiper. The Sport trim combines SE and Value Edition features and adds heated side mirrors (with driver's blind-spot viewer and integrated turn-signal indicators), a body-color spoiler, projector-beam headlights with LED accents, foglights, sport-tuned steering, a leather-trimmed tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, upgraded cloth upholstery and piano black interior accents.

Each vehicle typically comes in multiple versions that are fundamentally similar. The ratings in this review are based on our full test of the 2014 Hyundai Accent SE 4-door hatchback (1.6L 4-cyl.; 6-speed automatic). Some observations regarding visibility and cargo space will differ from the sedan. We've noted this where possible.

NOTE: Since this test was conducted, the current Accent has received minor revisions to trim and feature content. Our findings remain broadly applicable to this year's Accent. (Our SE test car car, for example, is roughly equivalent to today's Sport trim hatchback.)

If your last recollection of driving an economy car involved a jittery ride, incessant wind noise and the need to put the pedal to the floor to outpace the semi truck in your rearview mirror, we have good news: The 2017 Accent is none of those things. Its 4-cylinder engine is efficient and capable, and its ride quality is more refined than this car's size may lead you to believe. As much as some of our editors love a manual transmission, there's not much reward beyond cost savings for the one here; opt for the automatic if you can. The Accent's seats are comfortable, and even our taller editors found good head- and legroom up front. The Accent isn't all that dynamic or a barn-burner, but for running errands and moderate highway hops, this Hyundai more than serves its purpose.

GENEROUS WARRANTY Although you hope you’ll never have to use it, the peace of mind provided by the 2017 Hyundai Accent’s warranty is priceless -- and a further testament to Hyundai's belief in the quality of its products. The warranty includes 5-year/60,000-mile basic coverage and a 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty covering the engine and transmission. HATCHBACK MODEL You never know when you'll need extra room for gear. That's just one of the reasons we like hatchbacks. Beyond offering more cargo space behind the rear seats than a sedan's trunk, with seats folded the Accent hatchback opens up 47.5 cubic feet of volume.

The 2017 Hyundai Accent subcompact's 5-passenger interior layout isn't all that exciting, but it is functional. Controls for audio, climate and phone connectivity are easy to locate and use. The blue-hued backlit buttons and knobs are a nice touch and especially useful at night. Sedan versions of the Accent have a 13.7-cubic-foot trunk and 60/40-split-folding rear seats to accommodate larger items. But the real cargo-carrying hero in this lineup is the Accent hatchback, which offers 47.5 cubic feet of capacity with the seats folded -- nearly as much as a small SUV.

The 2017 Hyundai Accent isn't flashy, but it's polite and functional. Now one of the older models in the Hyundai lineup, the Accent lacks the gaping, hexagonal grille that distinguishes most of its kin. In addition to its more practical nature and added cargo capacity, we think the hatchback makes a bigger statement than the sedan. At 162 inches in length, the hatchback is a significant 10 inches shorter than the Accent sedan, which makes it even easier to park in small garages or tight places.

With the addition of the new Value Edition, the 2017 Accent sedan and hatchback are available in two trims each. Base SE sedans and hatchbacks have air conditioning, power windows/door locks, a 6-way-adjustable driver's seat and 6-speaker AM/FM/CD audio system with USB and auxiliary inputs, but no Bluetooth connectivity, cruise control or steering-wheel-mounted audio controls. If you go with the sedan, we recommend spending the extra $ 705 for the Value Edition, which brings those MIA amenities and more. All 2017 Accents include Hyundai's excellent warranty that backs the powertrain for 10 years/100,000 miles. You'll also get five years/unlimited miles of roadside assistance.

Accent SE sedan and hatchback trims can be had with a 6-speed automatic transmission instead of the standard 6-speed manual. Most buyers will prefer an automatic, which adds an extra $ 1,000 (sedan) or $ 1,200 (hatchback) to the bottom line. The Accent Sport Hatchback is the best equipped of the models, and the only one to offer a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel for an optimal driving position, heated side mirrors, projector headlights with automatic on/off, fog lights and driver's window with auto-up feature. That top model also has premium cloth seating, leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob and piano-black interior accents.

All 2017 Hyundai Accent models use a 1.6-liter 4-cylinder engine with gasoline direct injection (GDI) that translates to satisfying throttle response. Offering 137 horsepower and up to 37 mpg, this little engine puts out a good blend of power and efficiency, though it still can't quite match the fuel-economy figures of the Honda Fit, Nissan Versa Note or Toyota Yaris iA. All Accent models are front-wheel drive and use a standard 6-speed manual transmission or the more recommendable and popular 6-speed automatic transmission with Hyundai's Shiftronic manual control. 1.6-liter inline-4 137 horsepower @ 6,300 rpm 123 lb-ft of torque @ 4,850 rpm EPA city/highway fuel economy: 27/37 mpg (manual), 26/36 mpg (automatic) Note: Due to changes in EPA testing to more effectively reflect real-world conditions, some 2017 models show slightly lower fuel-economy scores than their 2016 versions.

The 2017 Hyundai Accent SE sedan with manual transmission has a Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) of $ 15,580. An automatic transmission costs an extra $ 1,000, and we recommend the new Value Edition trim, beginning at a still-reasonable $ 17,285. Accent hatchbacks begin at $ 15,830 and rise to $ 18,330 for a top-line model. These prices aren't the lowest -- a Ford Fiesta undercuts the Accent, as does a basic Nissan Versa -- but they still fall on the value end of this segment. The Accent's cousin, the Kia Rio, begins slightly lower with crank windows and, on the top end, ends higher with its better feature set. The Honda Fit starts slightly higher, as do the Chevrolet Sonic and Toyota Yaris. Before buying, check the Fair Purchase Price to see what others are paying. The Hyundai Accent's resale value isn't expected to be particularly strong, and is far outdistanced by the Honda Fit.
