Do Hyundai Accents have a spare tire?

My best friend blew her tire on the highway last week, but luckily, she had a spare in her trunk. I have a 2020 Hyundai accent and want to ensure I’m not left high and dry. Do all Accents come with spare tires?

The 2020 Hyundai Accent has a spare tire beneath a panel in the trunk. The jack, jack handle, and wheel lug nut wrench are in the luggage compartment under the luggage box cover. The jack provided is intended for emergency tire changing only.
Knowing
what to do with a flat tire
can help you avoid some hairy situations.
Turn the winged hold-down bolt counterclockwise to release the spare tire. To store the spare tire, use the same compartment, place the tire back in the hold, and turn the winged hold down bolt clockwise. To prevent the spare tire and tools from rattling, ensure you put them back in their proper location.
If it’s difficult to loosen the tire hold-down wing bolt by hand, you can use the jack handle.
Once the spare is released from the compartment, you can safely change your tire and put the spare on.
