2020 Hyundai Accent vs 2020 Toyota Yaris

Which subcompact is better: Accent or Yaris?

When you are shopping in the subcompact category, price is likely one of your first concerns, and we are proud to report that the Accent is much more affordable than the Yaris by over $1,000 when comparing the base MSRPs.

That savings can keep going too because the Yaris is less efficient than the Accent. The fuel capacity of the Accent is also slightly higher at 11.9 gallons. Fill up less often with the Accent and enjoy a little extra free time with all the money that you’ll save.

Fuel efficiency usually comes at the cost of power, but that simply isn’t the case here. The Yaris falls short by 14 horsepower while still getting that worse efficiency which is a little strange but likely comes down to the smarter CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) that the Hyundai Accent puts to work. It’s smoother and more efficient.

Lastly, the passenger room. The Accent just has more of it. Space is at a premium in the subcompact category, but the Accent gives you a little extra with more headroom and shoulder room.
