Used 2020 Hyundai Accent Sedan Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

The 2020 Hyundai Accent is a four-door sedan that straddles the line between subcompact and compact. It's offered in base SE, SEL and Limited trim levels.

All Accent models use a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine (120 horsepower, 113 lb-ft of torque) and either a six-speed manual or continuously variable automatic transmission. The Accent is front-wheel-drive.

The SE covers the basics and comes standard with features such as a six-speed manual transmission, a 60/40-split folding rear seat, Bluetooth, a rearview camera, a 5-inch touchscreen display, and a four-speaker sound system with a CD and USB/auxiliary inputs. The automatic transmission is optional.

The SEL adds more style (alloy wheels), performance (rear disc brakes) and functionality, including a telescoping steering wheel, a 7-inch touchscreen, dual USB ports, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The Limited comes with more conveniences including a sunroof, heated front seats and advanced safety features that aren't available on the two lower trims.

Which Accent trim does Edmunds recommend?

Even if the Accent's primary appeal is its affordability, we think the price increase from the base SE to the SEL (both automatic transmission) is worth it. For the extra money, the SEL offers upgrades such as alloy wheels, rear disc brakes, a telescoping steering wheel, and Apple CarPlay/Android Auto — features you'll appreciate in the long run.
