Bought a 2007 Hyundai Accent in April. Have spent a total of $60.00 for gas thus far. Incredible. The car I had before this was a 1994 Chevy Caprice Classic with the 4.3 V-8. Every time I could not get away with less than $50.00 every time I had to fill it from 3/4 tank. This car must be the best kept secret of Hyundai, because I do not see many on the road. The more I see gas go up in price, the more I see SUVs with the largest V-8s ever made. And Dodge and Ford brag about the fact that their V-10 engines in their pickup trucks are the most powerful!! If you live in the Northeast in an urban area, why do you need a V-10 engine? This little car has saved me approx. $200.00 on gas already. And, it is cheaper than the Yaris, Aveo, Versa and the Fit.

Hyundai makes a quality vehicle. Go figure.

I have a 2001 Accent. I get around 34 miles per gallon city and one time I even got 40 miles per gallon highway.... the latter was on a trip heading hours away without much stopping. I also have a 5 speed, so maybe I get a little better than those owners with the automatics. It is a great little car to tool around in.
