The Hyundai Getz is a supermini manufactured and marketed by Hyundai from 2002 to 2011 in three- and five-door hatchback body styles over a single generation — and marketed globally except in the United States, Canada and China.

The Getz was marketed as the Hyundai Click in South Korea, Hyundai Getz Prime in India, Hyundai TB (for "Think Basic") in Japan,[7] Inokom Getz in Malaysia, or Dodge Brisa in Venezuela.

After the launch of its successors, the i20 (2008) in Europe and Accent RB (2010) in South Korea, the Getz continued to be marketed worldwide, with production ending in 2011.

The name Getz reportedly stands for "achieved by desirability, a link-up of GET and IT, or "GET IT."[8]
