TCC’s Bottom Line
The 2020 Hyundai Accent is about as basic as new cars get, and that’s where its appeal lies. The 2020 Kia Forte has the style and now the GT power to slot into any compact-car shopping list. The 2020 Nissan Versa isn't the cheapest car anymore–look to the Chevy Spark or Mitsubishi Mirage for that–and that's a good thing.
