@shafta99 The Civic is not in the same class as the Accent it's larger, the Fit is. However i do agree with you about the people making negative comments just because it's a Hyundai, i love the new Elantra.
@ghrpdx yea.. their powertrains are fine but how do their interiors hold up? that effect the resale a lot too, how easily does the paint chip? is there any starting rust? interior panels scratch resistant/ are they warping? these all play a role, not just the engines. There's a reason why their resale is lower than others, it may be rising but that doesn't mean its high. on a side note, 255,000 on an 05? that neighbor does some serious driving that's averaging over 115 miles a day for 6 years!
@koltenk17 im not quite sure you just rattled off random car names but so basically you are saying that two cars that look that same means that all the cars look the same? hyundai isnt the only one to make relative cars i.e. 2004 ford expedition and 2004 ford explorer 2011 camry 2011 corolla 2011 bmw 5 2011 bmw 7 MB GL MB GLK need i say more!
I'd just save up longer and get a Veloster. According to Hyundai's website the Accent "starts" at $14,995 after destination charge. the Veloster 6 speed is only a few grand more at that point. work harder. get the Veloster.
@yummy1234098 lol. you have to be kidding me. the genesis? Lexus LS, MB S-Class, and Acura RL. The Sonata? Volkswagen CC and MB CLS-Class and a little Audi S4. The Elantra and Accent look the exact same as the Sonata.
The Hatch SE drove worse than the Fiesta, which imo is the best driver's car for the segment...the interior is all plastic where as the Fiesta has soft touch meaning less rattles....the fiesta is smaller and the Fit still wins for storage but add a few things to the Accent Hatch and you're right at Elantra pricing which is just a better, bigger car, combine that with the Veloster and you really shouldn't consider this unless you get the under-17k version
I Just bought mine its a wagon style anyone notice it can be driven like a 5 spd along with the automatic. Has anyone noticed this and driven it like that.
got it, never looked back, and my last car was a Mustang. I already have to take it in for body repairs because some drunk fuck, on foot, stumbled into my side vew mirror and knocked off the plastic housing which I didnt notice til I got home
Its a decent car, ill give it that. A far cry from the Excel it replaced. But as far as real world goes... anyone 5'10" is gonna look big in that thing esp w the drivers seat moved fwd. Put my 6'2" frame in that seat and then get in back again... hate the image trickery reviewers give for interior space.
These compact cars just don't look right in sedan form. They are all way too narrow for they length and just look disproportional. If I was to get one of these cars, I would go for the hatchback.
@koltenk17 how can u call a hyundai's own corprate design unoriginal?! look at it no other car looks like it, yes it may look close to its siblings but hell, ITS THE COMPANIES DESIGN LANGUAGE!! all BMWs look the same!
This car is amazing, I have a base with a comfort package and alloy wheels. great peppy car.
Got this car cause it was all I could afford....LOVE IT!

I kinda can't wait for the Sonic to come out and how it stakes up to the competition. I think it'l do very well even compared the accent.
Hi, I'm Dave Thomas with Cars.com and this a 2012 HONDai Accent...
لونها رومانسي جميل جدا 😮😮😮😮😮😮

Sorry? They don't offer a stereo on the base model?

this car is excellent for driving in the city
Good day can a 2012 parts fit a 2014 accent model

There is a trunk release in the car anyway. He is just complaining there isn't a button on the key fob.
How much would I save if I go with this instead of elantra. I don't care if I have to crank my Windows but I want it automatic transmition
@koltenk17 thats a good thing because hyundais are awesome looking
This is my dream car right here! Korean bentley!
Just wait until the Kia Rio comes out. Same platform but way cooler looking. Especially the 5 door.

does anyone think we will get more equipment leather seats sunroof side mirror blinkers for the 2013 year model
@yummy1234098 that's something I thought I'd never see, "Hyundai" and "Awsome" in the same sentence.
I Just bought mine its a wagon style anyone notice it can be driven like a 5 spd along with the automatic. Has anyone noticed this and driven it like that.
Is that 1.4 or 1.6 version?
No keyless entry?!
dude the versa is the best in class biggest back seat also
I have to say, Versa is a much larger car. But larger doesn't mean better.
"i think its called a key" i laughed
waaaaaaaaiiiitt. the base model doesn't have AC? -_-
Experts agree: The 2012 Hyundai Accent is far superior to the Honda Civic :)
you said "Hondai" like you wanted to say honda but forgot you were reviewing a hyundai...
@Kendel1224,
You mean *Hyundai and *Honda :D
هذا الفيديو رائع مال اكسنت
@ProtegeTuype Hyunda Civic and the all new Hondai Accent... mixed up! :D
I'm not a fan of the fabric pattern on the seats, it's a little tacky. Aside from that it looks like a nice car.
got it, never looked back, and my last car was a Mustang. I already have to take it in for body repairs because some drunk fuck, on foot, stumbled into my side vew mirror and knocked off the plastic housing which I didnt notice til I got home

@yummy1234098 It's unoriginal. But that's the epitome of Hyundai, I guess.
I'm... I'm... Sorry... Air conditioning is not a standard feature.
All clicked on this video for is to say YYYUUUKKK!!!
Sureeeee ;P
Hon-day? HUN-DAY, like Sunday.
Quando a cachat develocidade não vai enfrente e a trase
About $2200

@ghrpdx *sigh* then you need to just let go of your bias because their resale value is still lower than others for a reason and thats the truth
@StuinthaHouse weeeeell ya just did :p
He was kidding. Most Americans still use keys to open their trunk. I do!
@koltenk17 how can u call a hyundai's own corprate design unoriginal?! look at it no other car looks like it, yes it may look close to its siblings but hell, ITS THE COMPANIES DESIGN LANGUAGE!! all BMWs look the same!
It's pronounced HUN DAY not HON DAY. How can you people call yourself auto journalists.
This cars look is already old! Even all of the Hyundai line looks old!
1.6
@kiasucksPERIOD
cause their initial quality is good but long term...... not so much
I'd rather get a used Honda Civic than this thing...
SGDevotee why is that?
sameee :DDD
HONDAI
@tres311 hahahahaha like the sarcasm
no its not
@jacoale The deaf.............
I'd just go with the new Nissan Versa. Its Bigger and starts at 10,995. Nissans are MORE reliable, and its the cheapest car in america!
Music of the way

Who the hell would give up a stereo in a car? Talk about boring...
Why compare it with Ford Fiesta ? Fiesta is crap, just check the consumers review its absolutely worthless.
A boring reviewer for a boring car. All of Hyundai's sedans look the same.
I just can't stand CARS.COM anymore. It is really BOOORING!
Sorry but I'm unsubscribing!
