The Hyundai Accent is a subcompact passenger car produced by the South Korean manufacturer Hyundai. First introduced in the mid-1990s, it has been positioned as an affordable and fuel-efficient option within Hyundai’s global lineup. The Accent has been offered primarily as a sedan and, in some markets and generations, as a hatchback.

Designed for practicality and economy, the Hyundai Accent typically seats five passengers and features a compact footprint suited for urban and suburban driving. Engine options have generally included small-displacement gasoline units, emphasizing low fuel consumption and reduced operating costs. Over successive generations, the model has incorporated updated safety features, improved interior materials, and modern infotainment systems.

The Hyundai Accent has been widely used as a commuter vehicle and entry-level family car in many international markets. Its combination of affordability, reliability, and straightforward design has made it a consistent presence in the global subcompact segment.
