Best small car
I love small cars and this one was the best choice I could have made. Reliable and good looking, I think this car is exactly what I was looking for - easy to park, blue lights in the dash, sleek interior finishes and efficient on petrol. I haven't had any issues or complaints since I bought it from the Hyundai Dealer.

Good little nifty car
I settled on this purchase after looking into similar sized cars. I think it is value for money. It is quiet when on the road, easy to park which is important as its used mainly for suburban driving and the occasional trip further afield.Spacious enough interior.Reasonably economical to run fuel wise.I bought it new and have it serviced by the dealer as it has 3 year cap on service cost as well as paid road assistance if sent to the dealer annually !! It comes with an extended warranty. I have had it for a couple of years now and still running beautifully as it should.Maybe an issue for those who like to put their foot on the pedal to accelerate as it does seem to struggle with acceleration. Take their tinting offer. Well worth it.

Can not fault!
This car drives like a dream!
I am lucky enough to do half of the driving (husband loves to drive it too) and to have been a passenger in both the front and e back.
The driving experience with this car is second to none! So smooth. So quite. So luxurious!
It breaks well in all weather conditions and doesn't slide on wet surfaces.
It's acceleration is smooth and quick.
It feels like a dream!
Being a passenger in the Accent is a marvil in itself aswell. Great leg room! Very comfortable seats. Ease of access to the aircon and radio!
Love this car so much!

Updated from the Hyundai sports wagon 2000 model. Love the accent good to drive zippy and cheap on fuel. Easy to park. Small on the outside but big on the inside. Fits my large boys and boot is large enough for my shopping. Would receive recomend to anyone wanting a small hatch

suitable for elderly couple. .
excellent car, very reliable. Good performance with plenty of legroom in the front. Being tall, when I have the drivers seat back there is not a lot of room for the passenger behind the driver. I found running costs very reasonable and the servicing excellent and conveniently priced. car handles easily for parking.

Excellent car best value for money
I have been using this car for almost a year and I love it. It comes with Apple Car play, full spare wheel and lot of car boot space. 5 years of warranty with unlimited kilometers. I had a problem with radio reception after 7 months and they replaced the whole apple car play unit under warranty.

Good wee run around
It's a no frills, easy to run little car.
I've never had an issue with yet, the only funky thing that gets me, but has never actually caused me any grief? It has a two second turnover delay when I turn on the engine.
Oil & water seem to last forever with this car, and it's cheap to run.
I'd recommend it to anyone who was looking for reliability, leg room, and so on, but! The material interior of my car gets dirty very quickly, and whilst easy to wash off, does get a bit annoying how every little mark shows up.

Great small car, Great Customer Service
Brendon Welch is excellant in his whole approach made me comfortable and relax, He also included a full tank of petrol,6 months registration and a $1000 Gift Card :)
Highly would recommend Von Bibra Hellensvale as there whole approach was excellent.
Would use this company in the future, when purchasing again.

Comfortable fuel efficient & easy to park
Very direct steering, it's an automatic & seems to reva bit before changing to the next gear, which is supposed to be what the CVT transmissions do so I have read, front seats have plenty of leg room, back seat leg room is a bit squeezey
It's cheap to run& reliable so far, it's bit noisy inside from road noise & is low to the road which makes it a little harder to get out
I bought seat covers & put them on, since then the top half of the back seats which fold up & down, had a constant rattle, which was very annoying
Hyundai adjust...Read more

Best car I've ever owned!!
Seriously the best car I've ever owned. There is so much power under the bonnet, especially on steep hills, and there are a few of those where I live.
I bought it new in 2015. Mechanically the car is still fantastic, I've had it serviced twice, every 12 months, as per manufacture and dealer recommendations. I've had no major problems.
It is predominately an automatic car, But, you can switch to manual for more power, and more a steady breaking on hills
On a full tank of petrol, which costs around $40-45, depending on the price of petrol...Read more
, I get around 450-550kms I mostly drive around the city, But, I also do a fair amount of open road driving too. I seriously can not fault this car. It performs so well. This also includes some off-road too. The interior is very nice. Plenty of legroom for growing teens, all their bags, and of late, the dogs. One feature which I simply cannot live without now is the radio screen which, when my phone is connected via Bluetooth, becomes a hands-free phone. It's fantastic.Similar opinion?

Great value and reliable
We have a Hyundai Accent sendan which we are very happy with. This car was purchased brand new and we haven’t had a single issue with it. The services are only once a year and price capped. Also, this car is very fuel efficient, on interstate drives we manage to use about 4.8 L/100 k, which is really good. The boot is very spacious and the seats are comfortable and roomy. Overall a great car.

Good Car!
Since this is a small car with 1.4 litre engine, I feel that the car is sometimes overworked specially when accelerating uphill. I notice that the engine is a bit noisy at first when you turn it on. The interior is pretty good. The seats are made of cloth but good quality. There is no reversing camera/sensor. I don't like the rear window as I find it a bit smaller. As per safety, it has 5 star ANCAP. I like its feature which gives you idea how much remaining gasoline your car and kilometres it can reach. We bought it with 10 years Extended Warranty from DVG Morley which is awesome deal. Overall, still good car for its price.

Great Sales Experience
Purchased for my mother who hasn’t driven in over 20 years, the car is perfect for her. Easy to steer, park and drive with enough room for her groceries and grandkids. Can not fault anything about the vehicle in over a year. Sales team at Moorooka Hyundai were fantastic and went above and beyond to make this a great surprise for her.

Reliable fuel efficient car
Drives well and smooth. Low noise, in fact I can hardly hear when it's on. Plenty of leg room etc, Bluetooth is very handy with screen and steering wheel radio controls. Only thing missing is some extra cupholders. Very fuel efficient as a 1.4 litre. No gps I suppose as it's an entry level car.

Wish i'd never let it go
I miss this car so much - I had to sell it due to financial issues.
4 door was perfect. Sensitive, well handling, brakes well. Fits 5 grown adults perfectly.
A great city car. Driven out country as well and does well - as always, avoid pot-holes - that kind of driving
should be left for 4WDs.
10/10 would purchase again

Surging since I brought it brand new Aug 2016
Driving, surges at 50klm constantly
interiror OK
Reliability very questionable as this surging problem is a safety issue with accelerator movement, problem found but dealership is not doing anything about it, I advised them two weeks after purchase, they have done nothing, neither has Hyundai,
Would not recommend this car.

Perfect great car
Great drive stearing smooth. Very quiet but it is only a 1.4 litre engine it can be a little sluggish. Cost about $50 to fuel up get roughly about 430 to 500 kilometers per tank but only has a 40 litre fuel tank. It's a little small on the inside, perfect for a family with 1 to 2 children. A good reliable little car.

My first brand new car
I've had this car since June 2017. So far it's been very reliable and great on fuel consumption. It doesn't have much starting power but great when it's got going. The only real issue I have is when I connect to iplay and someone calls me, what ever volume my phone is on it rings into the car at that volume and scares me to death. So unless you have the patience to remember to turn your phone down every time you get in it's quite annoying.
The leg room in the front of the car is great, not so much in the back. But it is a small car. The boot is quite for the size of the car.

Value for money!
It's not the fastest or fanciest car on the market but I can tell you that if you are after a car that runs on an oily rag and its reliable this is you car and for the cost with the added extras like the long warranty and roadside assist it was a no brainer.

right foot to come off the accelerator, causing the surging, also told me to drive my automatic in manual mode, (dont even know how to do this and why should I) my car was sent away to another dealership to get looked at, they sent it back to me after driving 13klms and putting on their computer, no error codes found, Hyundai now say nothing wrong with my car as they cant replicate the problem. Computers don't lie, but Hyundai do, 17 months old now, 5588 klms and still surging at 50klms, I don't drive it anymore don't feel safe anymore. You tube Carolyn Stoltenberg and you will see the dodgy accelerator, look to the left then midway whole compenent moves lopsided. But hey computers don't lie
