Used Hyundai Cars
Based out of South Korea, Hyundai Kia is the fourth largest—and fastest growing—vehicle manufacturer worldwide. Just last year, they sold over 1.7 million vehicles across 193 countries. The company boasts 12 models spanning four categories: compacts, sedans, crossovers and a hybrid (the Sonata) delivering an exceptional 35 city/40 hwy mpg.
For those who are concerned about their environmental footprint, you’ll be happy to know that another popular model, the Accent, came first in Forbes’ 2009 ranking of fuel efficiency, while the Elantra, one of Hyundai’s midsized passenger sedans, ranked ninth among all cars. Even better, in 2011 US News ranked it fifth out of 33 affordable small cars, citing it as a “great daily driver” with “precise steering [and] accurate braking” and an “attractive, modern” exterior. Other popular car models include the Genesis, Santa Fe, Equus and Tucson.
As for safety, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety named the Sonata a ‘top pick’ for 2010. Not to mention that, even as far back as 2006, Electronic Stability Control--technology designed to detect and avoid skidding--came standard on over 70% of their models, far exceeding any other brand.
What are the benefits to buying a used Hyundai? According to Edmunds.com’s 2010 Annual Review, the Elantra and Azera are among the best used vehicles out there for quality and reliability. And they offer one of the industry’s longest powertrain warranties (10 years), transferrable even on their used vehicles! With a warranty like that, you can feel secure in buying a vehicle you know will last.
