The Hyundai Accent, known in some markets as the Hyundai Verna, is one of Hyundai's most recognized and enduring nameplates. Positioned as an entry-level subcompact sedan, the Accent has over the years transitioned into a staple of efficiency, reliability, and value in Hyundai's lineup. Here's a closer look at this popular car.
Over its life, the Accent has been offered with a range of engine options, tailored to different markets and emission standards. Typically, these have been four-cylinder gasoline engines, although diesel options have been available in certain markets.
While the Accent has never been marketed as a performance vehicle, its engines are known for their reliability and fuel efficiency. Depending on the year and model, engine sizes have generally ranged from 1.4L to 1.6L.
