Hyundai has improved the Accent by dropping the 1.4L and now available with the 1.6 GDI. The. CVT is also gone, replaced with 6 speed Auto. 

At this price, makes it best value small car. Certainly makes anything Toyota has with Yaris and Corolla look ordinary.

I don't think GO auto know what they're talking about... Hyundai doesn't have a CVT! It's currently got a 4 speed auto.

Yep pidim is right (not that I doubted it)

Far out I was wrong! It did have a CVT... I even drove one as a rental and didn't even notice!

It's a Hyundai Powertech transmission too, wonder if we will start to see more of them or maybe they have moved to DCT
