When Hyundai America first launched at Maryland Hyundai Dealers and Delaware Hyundai Dealers in 1986, they sold cars that were $5000 and were considered a piece of junk. The car they had launched was the Excel. Since then Hyundai has made a quantum leap and really started turning heads in the late 1990s and early 2000s with their advancements in quality. Today Hyundai is at the top of the automakers in the world.
Some say that such a fast rate of growth will leave Hyundai susceptible to cutting corners and will cause problems soon or later, kind of like what happened with Toyota and their recalls. Hyundai however is aware of this and is constantly placing steps to control quality and make sure no problems will occur with any of their vehicles that they produce. Regardless it is certain that Hyundai has made a huge leap in quality while still maintaining affordable, fuel efficient, safe, and stylish cars.
Currently Hyundai is taking control of car and truck segments which include the 2011 Hyundai Sonata and the 2010 Hyundai Tucson. The new 2011 Sonata sports a longish nose, panoramic sunroof, and a coupe-style design. Hyundai’s Vice Chairman Chung Eui Sun said “The Sonata will set a new standard for world class mid-size sedans with state of the art technology, superior quality, and emotional design.” The new 2010 Hyundai Tucson now has more curves than its boxier predecessor and is a bit more aggressive looking. The 2010 Tucson is also lighter by 61 pounds and has an additional 3 inches in length. The reduction in weight has allowed it to gain better fuel economy at 31 mpg highway; a gain of 6 miles per gallon (the 2009 Hyundai Tucson was rated at 25 mpg by the EPA). The revamped Tucson also has downhill brake control, panoramic sunroof, “Eco Indicator”, and available navigation, rearview camera, steering wheel controls, XM radio, and Bluetooth.
“Both the 2011 Sonata and 2010 Tucson are signs that Hyundai is in it to win it. The new design flow is proof the Hyundai cares about how stylish their cars and trucks look. Not to mention the 2011 Hyundai Equus should boost Hyundai’s image even further and increase the value of the company as a whole.” says John Skalstad, General Manager of Salisbury Hyundai Dealer, Preston Hyundai. “We are proud to offer the Hyundai product at the Preston Auoplex. Each month it seems the residents of Delmarva become more and more interested in Hyundai.” he claims.
