Cons Sluggish acceleration Ride quality drops over rough roads
Freshly overhauled last year, the 2019 Hyundai Accent sedan is roomier, safer and more fuel-efficient than before. It drives even sportier than it looks, thanks to a nicely calibrated suspension and an available manual transmission. We're not talking autobahn-ready performance here, but the Accent is surprisingly nimble, and it makes for a sensible and stylish subcompact choice.
Pros Comfortable ride and impressively quiet cabin Spacious interior with solid, rattle-free build quality Long warranty coverage provides peace of mind Excellent real-world fuel economy
Cons Enhanced safety aids only available on top trim level USB port struggles to charge a phone Cloth seats are uncomfortable and trap heat Lacks onboard navigation but connects to smartphone nav apps
