Hyundai Accent First Generation

The first generation of Hyundai Accents includes the 1994 Hyundai Accent, 1995 Hyundai Accent, 1996 Hyundai Accent, 1997 Hyundai Accent, 1998 Hyundai Accent, and 1999 Hyundai Accent.

The Hyundai Accent first made its debut in North America in 1994, offering drivers a choice of hatchback or sedan models powered by 1.3 and 1.5-liter engines. While not the most powerful engines available, these finely tuned powertrains provided plenty of power for everyday errands and longer road trips. All models in the first generation featured front-wheel drive.

Hyundai Accent Second Generation

The second generation of the Hyundai Accent includes the 2000 Hyundai Accent, 2001 Hyundai Accent, 2002 Hyundai Accent, 2003 Hyundai Accent, and 2004 Hyundai Accent.

Even after two decades, many second-hand second-generation Hyundai Accents remain in excellent condition, proving their longevity and reliability. Since 1999, the second-generation Hyundai Accent has been released with three trim levels: GT, GL, and GLS. All models from The 1999 Hyundai Accent, the 2000 Hyundai Accent, and the 2001 Hyundai Accent feature 1.5-liter engines, while the Hyundai Accent 2002, Hyundai Accent 2003, Hyundai Accent 2004, and 2005 Hyundai Accent models boast an upgraded 1.5-liter engine.

Hyundai Accent Third Generation

Including the 2006 Hyundai Accent, 2007 Hyundai Accent, 2008 Hyundai Accent, 2009 Hyundai Accent, 2010 Hyundai Accent, and 2011 Hyundai Accent.

In 2006, Hyundai released the third generation of its highly successful entry-level vehicle, the Accent. Sporting a modern, sporty look, the Accent was released with two trim levels: the GS and SE. The GLS trim was also released, offering extra sports features such as large alloy wheels and an improved sound system. The Hyundai Accent hatchback is a popular choice in McDonough and the greater Atlanta area, thanks to its impressive fuel economy, dependability, and comfort.

Hyundai Accent Fourth Generation

Including the 2012 Hyundai Accent, 2013 Hyundai Accent, 2014 Hyundai Accent, 2015 Hyundai Accent, and 2016 Hyundai Accent.

The 2011 Hyundai Accent Hatchback marked the beginning of the fourth generation of the Hyundai Accent. This version featured a powerful 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. Later that same year, the sedan version was also released. In 2012, Hyundai Accent was unveiled with a complete redesign to the exterior lines and interior look and feel. Inside the cabin, drivers can expect a remote keyless entry system, an infotainment system, and AC, all designed for an optimal driving experience and maximum efficiency.

Hyundai Accent Fifth Generation

Including the 2017 Hyundai Accent, 2018 Hyundai Accent, 2019 Hyundai Accent, 2020 Hyundai Accent, 2021 Hyundai Accent, and 2022 Hyundai Accent.

Hyundai has taken the fifth generation of the Hyundai Accent to new heights with an upgraded 1.5-liter GDI 4-cylinder gasoline engine that is even more fuel-efficient than past models. This engine is available in both the SE and SEL sedan models, with the SE version offering the option of a 6-speed manual or 6-speed automatic transmission. The car’s exterior has been given a subtle but stylish update, and the interior features a new infotainment system. However, those who want the hatchback version will have to look to past generations of the Accent, as it has been discontinued.

Why Has Hyundai Decided To Discontinue The Hyundai Accent?

Recently, Hyundai announced that the 2022 Hyundai Accent would be the final edition of the Accent released in the U.S. market. The company has decided to focus on electric vehicles and larger SUVs produced for the North American market. However, if you still wish to purchase a Hyundai sedan, the Elantra and Sonata models are still being made.
