I think the value, and how basic the Accent is makes it a good option at around $15k. I've driven this 1.6L GDi engine, and you're right it has great power.

[@HoofHearted2DAY]

Looking at your smashed phone screen through my smashed phone screen 😂 #smashedscreenception

[@carsguide]

If the touchscreen was smash that would be next level inception... although I don't think Hyundai would like that. - MT

[@grahambridge3437]

We owned a 2013 accent with the older 1.6, and agree with everything you said. Other than road noise...it's not a quiet car and its noticeable on a long trip. Even cranking up the mediocre stereo couldn't drown out the noise.

[@alwinliew10]

1.4L u meant?

[@ckass5830]

Can’t wait to get one ... in lake silver !

[@gyanendrapoudel5494]

What about the safety features?

[@madladdan]

Who would choose this over the Hyundai i20? i20 looks neat but the 1.6 in this dominates and this comes with mag wheels...

[@bayleydavis5553]

The accent looks so much nicer with alloys. Not sure about the new grill... Though this car has looked the same throughout its life, it still looks relatively fresh and stylish. Maybe if it didn't have those oversized and dated halogen headlamps. I have a 2016 model and am very pleased.

[@JoeC88]

I think it is better if a model remains pretty much the same for a long period, it is then likely to have cheaper parts / servicing and possibly insurance costs.

[@bayleydavis5553]

Joe Kerr I suppose so.

[@JoeC88]

Very good concise review. Does unlocking Andriod permit the option of using both apple or Andriod ?

[@th-l8936]

Bloody love his moustache!!!

[@carsguide]

I'm glad someone does. - MT

[@8888-y8h]

Nice presentation & nice presenter (a cutie 😍)

[@KevinWhiting-j1i]

13 has 139 hp more power with a better 6 speed auto no cvt 2018 is 5 gen not been around since 2011 you are not correct .

[@KevinWhiting-j1i]

2017-2022 was the 5th gen 2012 to 2016 was the fourth gen... At 2018 accent was new in 2018

[@KevinWhiting-j1i]

Looks good

[@SteveSzmilek]

This is a 2017 not a 2018

[@nth4581]

Why isn't Hyundai bringing the new 2018 Accent to Australia? The car looks dated. This car deserves an update.

[@henrytoussaint7]

Annoyingly the all-new version hasn't been confirmed for RHD yet 😞

[@nth4581]

Henry Toussaint is it? As far as I know, the Accent has got it's timely updates in India. And the 2018 model is also on sale. The Accent is sold in some markets as the Hyundai Verna.

[@henrytoussaint7]

Correct, however Hyundai Australia prefers not to import Indian built Hyundai's due to higher ADR safety and/or build quality standards.

[@nth4581]

Henry Toussaint Now it makes sense! Thanks mate.

[@jwilliamsproductions]

Rumour has it the i20 is making a return and will replace the Accent

[@santhoshc4953]

Which country

[@SteveSzmilek]

370L is incorrect........

[@sierracharlie7293]

Errol Flynn's Grandson ?

[@carsguide]

This is the best compliment I've received all week. - MT

[@santhoshc4953]

I have the same car Hyundai fludic verna 4s

[@UFR00lz]

how to get android autoooooo? anyone has the files?

[@9unslin9er]

It's not High-On-Die.
It's Hee-yun-deh.

[@tarzan6405]

The original Korean pronunciation is closest to HYUN-day (-hy as in Hugh, -u as in bun, -ay as in day, stressed syllables shown in upper case). Hyundai UK, including its adverts, has a different way of saying it: high-UUN-digh (-igh as in high

[@AT-vz9og]

I bought one today and paid the extra for reverse camera and sensors however the salesman said android wasn’t supported.. guess he didn’t know what he was on about when I asked if it could be updated for Apple and Android

[@bananas6543]

so can it be updated to include Android?

[@integratedwellbeing4774]

YES. can it be updated to Android??? really need to know asap.

[@banuke80]

how much did u pay for the sensor n camera upgrade?

[@humanity9628]

Can u guys tell the price from base to top model

[@rodsterau]

around $15,990 manual and $17,990 auto. Have seen auto hatches for low-$16k and manuals from under $15k

[@AOSRoyal]

lose the stache

[@carsguide]

It's this type of negativity that makes me want to keep it. - MT

[@JoeC88]

That's the attitude, be yourself (maybe add handlebars to the 'stache)

[@carsguide]

That's the dream Joe, I'll get there one day! - MT

[@JoeC88]

Great review MT, keep up the good work.
