  • www.autobytel.c... 2012 Hyundai Accent Test Drive - With gas on the never-ending rise, the Sub-Compact car segment is becoming one of the more popular car buying sectors thanks to all the fuel efficient cars like the 2012 Hyundai Accent. The Accent features a new GDI line of engines which are a big leap forward in terms of fuel economy. The 2012 Hyundai Accent is powered by a 1.6 liter 4-cylinder engine that makes 138 horsepower and 123 lb-ft. of torque. Fuel Economy is best in class with the Accent getting 30 MPG in the city and 40 MPG on the highway.
    Hyundai's are all about value and the 2012 Hyundai Accent starts at $14,595. For the money you get a great 10-year warranty.

    We're buying one of this at Christmas. Great car. Great interior and the 260 N-M pull is just mind blowing.

    I love the accent(I have a 2013 hatchback(blue)) I'm a 23 year old girl who is very little (4'11) so I have issues fitting a car to me and still feel safe and have enough room for my friend(5'8) and her little boy(age 3). The car handles well and is cute but not so cute a guy would be embassassed by. The gas milage is super and the USB port sounds minor but I couldn't live without it now.

    The Accent is perfect for city driving and fitting in tight parking spaces. The only complaint I have is the lack of cup holders for rear passengers, and Hyundai hasn't addressed this issue for 2013 models. Otherwise I would seriously consider the Accent

    It looks like the same guy who designed my 2002 Rio Cinco designed this, and I love it.

    This guy is the best reviewer....I'd like to see all his reviews. 3 cars I'm looking at, Accent, new Mirage, and a Mazda 2. The Mirage ride was a bit rough, wind and road noise..Accent and Mazda 2 are next. The one thing Hyundai has that warranty, but in the same breath, are Hyundai's reliable.

    apparently the weight/horsepower ratio in this car is great.

    I still love it but as for the driving the furthest I taken it was to Tyler Texas about 200 miles from where I live. On average I get about 33 MPG but I mostly drive around a 40 mile radius in the suburbs of Dallas.

    Cups holders are needed for passengers in the back, preferably in the doors, softer materal on door handle armrest as well would be nice. Hyundai please fix this for 2013 !!!

    Not sure how much of a difference it makes, but I confirmed with Hyundai that this car uses a timing chain as opposed to a belt. Unlike the Honda and Mazda, this also comes with 4-wheel disc brakes. (as opposed to the rear drums offered in the other two) This car would be just about perfect for me if it included HD Radio. So far, the only subcompact car that offers that is the Toyota Yaris. The Yaris SE isn't too bad, but it doesn't offer a DI engine nor a 6-speed transmission as this car does.

    I chose the 2012 Nissan Versa sedan. It's $4000 cheaper & has more interior room than the Accent & a LOT more back seat leg room than the Acccent. The Versa has a plusher ride than the Accent. The Accent does have more power than the Versa but doesn't ride as smooth, the Versa is basically a small family car & outsells the Accent by a LOT.
    Nissan Versa October 2012 month sales number = 8,311 cars sold in USA (#1 in class)
    Hyundai Accent October 2012 month sales number = 3,373 cars sold in USA

    Absolutely love this car. Great daily driver while the stripped-out Miata gets saved for the weekends.

    @kalargyi good for you. Buy that then. Not everyone has the money to insure and maintain a BMW. I'd rather have this

    this is the 2nd video I see you crying about cup holders
    If cup holders are that important to you, maybe consider buying a mini van

    I've recently talked to 3 dealers--2 used car and a new car salesmen-who told me they drive Hyundais. IDK anything about them, but supposedly they have it going on right behind Toyota.

    Can you guys please do a 2014 Hyundai Accent Hatchback Automatic

  • @filoIII
    @filoIII 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    I'm thinking about an Accent HB as well. I drive 100 mi/day round trip in curves and hills. Will it handle that well you think? What kind of driving to you do? What's your mpg? I'm narrowing it down to a Rio, Accent, or Fiesta HB.

    You guys need you say thanks. We in Israel pay on this model (In Israel 2012 is 2013) 32K for basic ver. (Tax included. 110% tax rate). And it's not only Hyundai... All of the cars is 110% tax rate...

    Thanks alot, Piper. I'm going to do a bit more research. I'm leaning toward the Accent and Rio.
    Hey, the #13, and short 23 yr/old women are my FAVOURITES!!! :)

    Especially painted blue, the hatchback looks like a fish. (Especially the way the headlights are designed like the eyes, and the vents below look like the mouth.)
    I don't mean that in an insulting way, but in an interesting artistic way. If you painted the sedan blue or gray, it would look like a shark.
    I have to agree. It seems you're really getting a lot for your money.

  • @davidhalifax
    @davidhalifax 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Nope. I just think sub-compact cars should have cup holders for rear passengers. The Kia Rio has them in the rear doors, why not the Accent since they are based on the same platform.

    @CoolModifiedCars got mine 2008 328i with 57k miles for $19k, wife got 2003 525i with 80k mile = $4800 just bought.

    Everything Hyundai is offering on this vehicle is fine but just wait till the timing belt comes off and wraps around the engine time and time again as many owners of previous models of the Accent can attest to. Sure, Hyundai NEEDS that massive waranty just to get you in the door with such a reputation. I'd rather spend less time visiting the dealers service shop and more time on the road. Pick a Honda or Mazda instead. You'll be glad you werent conned into the current day Hyundai hype. Its bogus

  • @thisisbenji90

    Where are you getting a 08 528i with 30k miles on it for $18,000? Hook me up!

  • @Brandon3060
    @Brandon3060 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    There is no timing belt in the new engine it's chain driven.

  • @kalargyi
    @kalargyi 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    $16k for this? +tax and else is about $18k if you pay cash,
    i will take 2008 528i with 30000miles for the same price.

  • @Medmann48
    @Medmann48 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Yes well that's your opinion & quite frankly all sub-compact cars are pretty ugly looking. Cars don't really get good looking until you hit about $25,000.

  • @racers115
    @racers115 11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    And the Versa is also one of the ugliest cars on the road.
