The first images of the next-generation Hyundai Accent have leaked in China.

Known as the Hyundai Verna in China, the Korean automaker actually showed off a concept at this year’s Beijing Motor Show previewing the new Accent. Spy photographers recently caught the 2018 Hyundai Accent sedan testing heavily camouflaged, but now we have a good idea of what to expect.

Like the rest of Hyundai’s lineup, the Accent will have a more mature design to its exterior, following in the footsteps of the new Elantra.

Rumors also suggest that the 2018 Hyundai Accent will only be available in four-door form, meaning the five-door model will be axed. Expect to see the Hyundai Accent debut in North American trim sometime next year.

    I'm diggin' the new design style in their fleet. They all incorporated the grill style and strong body design of the genesis sedan, even their suv's. I'm very curious to see the genesis coupe when it gets its redesign for 2018 (hopefully)
