There are plenty of cars out there, but what makes the perfect first car? If your answer to this question is one that is safe, affordable, and big on style, then the 2020 Hyundai Accent is for you. It offers modern technology and design that is sure to appeal to a variety of tastes. Check out what this sedan has to offer those looking to purchase their first car.

Safety

A safe car is always a good choice, but even more so when buying your first car. The Hyundai Accent has both vehicle stability management and electronic stability control, keeping it steady and on the road as you travel. A traction control system gives this car a better grip on the road. With the tire pressure monitoring system, you can keep an eye on the air in your tires to help prevent flats. In 2019, the Accent was an Insurance Institute for Highway Safety Top Safety Pick when it was equipped with collision avoidance assist and LED headlights.

Power

You’ll find a sporty 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine powering the 2020 Accent. This motor produces 120 horsepower and 113 pound-feet of torque. In the base trim, the engine is paired to a six-speed manual transmission, and in the upper trims, the engine is mated to a Smartstream intelligent variable transmission. Front-wheel drive is standard for this sedan. It gets an impressive 33 miles per gallon when driving in the city and up to 41 mpg out on the highway.

Comfort

If you’re looking for a car with a well-appointed, smart interior, the Accent is it. You can adjust the driver’s seat to be in just the right position, as it has six-way front to back adjustment, height adjustment, and sliding and reclining adjustments. There’s also a 60/40 split fold-down rear seatback, air conditioning, steering wheel-mounted audio controls, front and rear power windows, and cruise control. Other available features, depending on the trim, include a proximity key with push-button start, an exterior temperature display, heated front seats, and a sliding armrest storage box.

Technology

Modern cars should have modern technology, which is exactly what you’ll get with the Hyundai Accent. A Bluetooth hands-free phone system allows you make calls without taking your hands off the wheel, and to make this task even easier, you can opt to upgrade and also get voice recognition. On the base trim, you get a 5-inch color touch screen with four speakers and an AM/FM/CD radio. In the upper trims, you’ll get a 7-inch touch screen display audio system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration and six-speakers. Dual USB charging ports are also standard in the upper trims.

Style

This four-door sedan has a style all its own. With features such as fog lights, heated mirrors, and a power tilt and slide sunroof available on the top trim levels, this car is sure to catch the eye of those passing you on the road.
