Hate it only get if you're desperate
There is no cruise control!...
The fuel tank lasts two seconds...
Very noisy from the inside.
The locking system is dumb because you have to manually unlock it to get out.
Already having problems with it at 30,000km.
I would not suggest getting this car! If you want a cheap car buy second hand before this one!

Perfect Car for anyone!
Great small car. Love that it has 4 doors yet is so compact. Very spacious too considering its size.Very generous boot. I got the manual and it drives beautifully. Super quiet, sometimes i have to wind down my window to see if I have already turned it on. (haha) It doesn't have any vibration when you are pulled over it is just beautiful. Its very economic. For the price of the car you cannot go wrong. Touch screen, cruise control, amazing stock speakers and super comfy for everyone. I would recommend the accent to anyone. whether its your first car, or you have small family or you are just after a car to putt around to take you to the shops you could not find a better car. Thank you Harrison Hyundai.

good functional car
I purchased the 2015 Hyundai accent back in 2016. The car is nice and works properly. It is good for families and for anyone looking to buy a safe car. It has Bluetooth which allows for calls on the car. What I don't like about the car is the steering wheel. It's very slim. Most car I drove had thicker sterromg wheels. It's a reliable car .

My new car
Bought my new car 6 months ago and to date cannot fault it. This little car responds well and is easy to drive. Very comfortable for 4-5 people. The interior is quite spacious and has adequate leg room. Good fuel efficiency and handles well. The only thing I notice is that there is no CD player.

Amazing car for the money
I just bought this as my first new car ever and this was after a lot of research. The features on offer for the price couldn't be matched in the market. 6-speed auto (not CVT!), cruise control, electric everything and with a 5-year warranty for well under $16,000. Nothing could really compete, the closest being the Kia Rio which doesn't have cruise control as standard. I picked up the new Sport model, which is equivalent to the older Elite version, so it has everything. Even Apple CarPlay has been added. It looks great and goes well. Fuel consumption around town is a little higher than I expected, but that's because I do almost no freeway driving.

Hunk of Junk
It's noisy. AC is noisy and inadequate. It's economical. Shock towers go clunk. Carpet wear holes early. Seatbelts stop retracting early and fall out onto the road or you have to put it on your seat. Seat belts tighten around your neck and hurt. The cd player is useless half the buttons stop working. The clock is not adjustable after around 100 thousand kays. The keyfob will lock your car if you leave the keys on the seayt and arm your alarm which goes of at all random hours of the night. All in all an annoying heap of poo. When I sold it I smiled as I seen it drive away

This car, for the minimal price, absolutely amazing! Small, efficient, aesthetically pleasing, a gem to drive!

Great Run-About Car!
This is one-of (if not, the) best cars I've ever owned!!! It is cheap, without looking it. It is a good car to downsize to as we did, from a medium sedan (i45) to this. The i45 was a great car, but it wasn't light on petrol, it was harder to park because of its size and there was too-much space that wasn't being used. And we got our little red Accent and haven't looked back. The driiving experience is good; does what it needs to do. It's pretty smooth and quiet. When driving on rough tarmac or driving fast for long periods of time you do notice...Read more
the tire roar... but it could be much worse. The exterior of the car is rather neat looking, for a cheap and light car it has some nice styling elements. Sharp creases along the side and front with a uniquely styled rear-end complimenting the exterior with bland, yet suiting, hubcaps. For the class, the Accent is quite plush. The is a nice patterned plastic that surrounds the cabin with some silver inserts and neat, flowing sculpture. The front seats are comfy, and hug you nicely, however the back seats could have a little more support. There are plenty of cupholders and storage up-front, but the isn't a center arm-rest in the back and there is only one map pocket. Otherwise, there is a vast amount of space in the back seat. The media system is ok. Blu-tooth is kinda slow to connect for android phones so you're best just to use the aux cord. For apple devices it is a little more accepting with Apple Carplay and faster connectivity. I would like it if the car had a reversing camera as the back window is small and obstructed by rear seats and rear C pillars. The boot is massive! Again, for a light car, its boot is bigger than cars in higher classes such as the Toyota Corolla and Mazda 3. Very, very good car for anyone. Maybe not for larger families...Similar opinion?

Great car - faultless
I bought the automatic version new 3.5 years ago for $17k drive away. The car is fun to drive and huge inside considering its in the small car class. I loved it and miss it after I lost it in an accident with a SUV. Happy with the resale value. I had zero probs with it. The only prob the car had was discovered by the dealer at hand over and got fixed straight away.

Great little car for city driving
I bought a Hyundai Accent as my first brand new car purchase, and I have to say I'm very happy with it. It accelerates 0-60 pretty well for a discount car, and I can get 500-600km off a full tank of petrol (can do outer suburbs of Melbourne to Canberra off one tank!). Its size makes it great for city driving, and a lot easier to park than other cars!
I will say it's not fantastic for highway driving - I'm in 6th (highest) gear by about 80, so it starts to struggle at 110, but the fuel economy is so good I don't mind at all. It also doesn't h...Read more
ave great visibility out any side. I've gotten used to it, but if I drive another car then get back in mine I'm always struck by how little I can see by comparison. All up, great car for driving in the citySimilar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Great small car for a big guy!
Best value small car in Australia for me. I looked at many different models when considering my new purchase and the Hyundai wins for fuel efficiency and leg room (important for me at 6'3). The Apple CarPlay is very handy and easy to use with the only downside being no reverse camera or sensor included in any version.

Good affordable little car
One of the decent little car, base model, however little bummed to missed on the new model which comes with cruise control at the base model. Overall performance matches my need, good L/Km ratio, decent handling. I wish there would be more features. Made a dumb choice to get reverse sensors to be installed by hyundai, should go to any aftermarket place.

Okay car
I bought an accent for my first ever brand new car! While it is nice I really should have spent the extra money and upraded to an i30. My sister bought an i30 soon after I got my accent and there is a noticeable difference between the cars. The accent is okay, just the i30 has less blind spots and a more powerful engine

Very Good enough for the price
Bought it new when it was on promo. Very happy with the fuel consumption and also the offer and extended warranty from the dealer. The car itself is good enough for my work purpose. The technology and bluetooth features are excellent. The only problem that I found is the demister is not really working well during winter time as it took ages to clear up the fogs. Other than that, I am very satisfied with it.

Economical Car
Sporty-looking on the outside, with grippy tyres for sporty cornering
Roomy interior
Quite quick in a straight line
Strong after-sales package
Cheaper than some competitors
Suspension too abrupt over country roads and fidgety on urban arterials
Average interior quality
Flat seats
Lacks engine refinement and overall finesse of best rivals

Resposive and easy to handle.
A nimble and easy to drive car thay is perfect day to day car. After driving this car for a month i can appreciate what hyundai has done. Driving the car with in the triptronic gives the car extra power whwn i need it and the boot space is generous for the this size car. Im suprised it has a full size spare tyre and easy to use infomat system. Apple car play is a dream and wish i could have that on my other cars.

Great little car. Very happy with the Accent as a shopping trolley - taxi around town
I replaced our old Pulsar with a brand new Accent in 2017, and I am very happy that I did. The car handles so well, has all the modern conveniences you'd expect in a larger car, including bluetooth, central locking, airbags everywhere, lovely dash and controls, great 5 year warranty. Fuel efficiency is great - around 5L/100 km on the open road, and ~ 6.5 around town.
Only slight concern is that road sounds can become loud at speed - needs some insulation under the feet. It is also low, so be careful when parking not to nose into curbs or the front bumper will scrape.
