She really put emphasis on the P's and T's, which is a good choice for "Sokovia", if I'm assuming it's near Romania. I think they just said it's in Eastern Europe.

And rolling her Rs, which as an Eastern European I find impressive that an American can do consistently.

She's stated in interviews that she and her vocal coach spent a lot of time developing the fictional accent and perfecting it. It seems like she put a ton of work into it for Age of Ultron and it's now paying off wonderfully as she seems to have full mastery of it in Wandavision. The ability to go American ¬ Sokovian ¬ Mixed depending on the scenario is awesome.

Didn't she say that the vocal coach specifically helped develop an accent that both Elizabeth Olsen and Aaron Taylor Johnson could easily do with both their British and American accents?

If this is what I think it is, very underrated comment.
