Consumer Guide Automotive, a trusted resource for car buyers for nearly 40 years, test drives more than 200 new vehicles annually, judging them on price, features, performance and accommodations. “We drive these vehicles as their owners would, on highway trips, in stop­and­go city driving, for weekend shopping,” Consumer Guide Automotive Publisher Frank Peiler said. The Hyundai Elantra is listed as “Recommended” in the Compact Car category, where “vehicles range from tiny economy models to slightly larger popularly priced sedans, hatchbacks, and wagons.” The Hyundai Sonata is listed as a “Recommended” in the Midsize Car category, where the cars “represent the heart of the U.S. car market; most are price­sensitive, conservatively designed, family oriented sedans and wagons.” “Hyundai is pleased to have two of our models listed as “Recommended Picks” by Consumer Guide Automotive,” said Bob Cosmai, CEO, Hyundai Motor America. “It is important to us that our cars fit the lifestyles and needs of today’s consumer.” For a complete review of the Elantra and Sonata, and to view the full list of “Best Buys and Recommended Picks,” visit auto.consumerguide.com or see the monthly publication, Consumer Guide Car & Truck Test, available on newsstands now.

  • 2012 Hyundai ACCENT Information Provided By
    Information Provided by: 2012 HYUNDAI ACCENT Information Provided by: 2012 ACCENT NEW THINKING From the very beginning, our engineers were determined to conceive something more than a redesigned car. They wanted to change the very idea of what a subcompact could be. Can we engineer a car that rolls onto the scene with best-in- class horsepower, while also delivering class-leading standard fuel economy? Can we conceive a fluid, aerodynamic profile with an interior cabin spacious enough to offer the most front and rear shoulder room in its class? Can we wave goodbye to the compromises inherent in traditional subcompacts? The all-new 2012 Hyundai Accent has all the answers. With three trim levels to choose from, there’s plenty to consider. The artful simplicity of the GLS 4-Door. The versatility of a well- equipped GS 5-Door. And the sport-inspired pleasures of the SE 5-Door. Each new model is molded with dynamic styling that is sure to raise eyebrows as well as expectations. What happens when you give an imaginative team of engineers the freedom to go beyond making changes to a car…and do something so different, it changes people’s thinking? Inquire within.

    Press Release Contact: Robert Burns For immediate release Vice President – HR & Administration (334) 387-8010 HYUNDAI MOTOR MANUFACTURING ALABAMA CELEBRATES LAUNCH OF ALL-NEW 2022 SANTA CRUZ Montgomery, Ala. June 22, 2021 – Hyundai Motor Manufacturing Alabama (HMMA) celebrated the launch of the all-new 2022 Santa Cruz Sport Adventure Vehicle on Tuesday, June 22, 2021. The Santa Cruz joins the Sonata and Elantra sedans and Santa Fe and Tucson SUVs on the Montgomery assembly line. This addition marks the first time HMMA has produced five vehicles at once. The highly-anticipated Santa Cruz Sport Adventure Vehicle shatters both SUV and truck segments, creating an entirely new vehicle category. The Santa Cruz features a secure, open bed area which includes a lockable tonneau cover and hidden bed storage for diverse gear-carrying flexibility. “Santa Cruz, with its bold styling, breaks open an all new segment territory, both for Hyundai and the industry as a whole. Open-bed flexibility coupled with closed-cabin security meets the changing everyday needs of its adventure-oriented buyers, while powerful and efficient engines and superb maneuverability ensure it is a pleasure to drive in urban or off- road environments. Our customers will wonder just how they managed before owning one,” said Jose Munoz, president and CEO, Hyundai Motor North America. HMMA recently completed a plant expansion project to support adding the Santa Cruz to HMMA’s product mix. The addition of the Santa Cruz will further enhance HMMA’s ability to adjust its vehicle production with market demand and stay competitive in the ever-changing automotive market.
