Chicago Hyundai Elantra Earns Top Honor

The growing popularity of the 2011 Hyundai Elantra as well improved features are one of the reasons the 2011 Elantra earned the ALG Residual Value Award.  According to Raj Sundaram, senior vice president for the Solutions Group and ALG, Hyundai’s win of the mid-compact segment highlights the growing reputation of the Hyundai brand, as well as its impressive new product push.  The Hyundai Elantra is becoming the popular vehicle amongst the younger driver demographic, making it a chic vehicle to drive.

The 2011 Hyundai Elantra, available at this Chicago Hyundai dealer, features unique Hyundai characteristics that set this brand apart and have led to its impressive rise in market sales and industry recognition. Some of these characteristics include Hyundai’s fluidic sculpture design, advanced safety technology, and a 40-mpg highway fuel economy that is best in its class.

Hyundai spent 33 months redesigning and reconfiguring the brand new 2011 Hyundai Elantra and the hard work has paid off with this prestigious award.  Some of the new features on the 2011 Hyundai Elantra include the 1.8 liter “Nu” engine and a brand new six speed automatic transmission.  This, combined with the other traditional features of the Hyundai Elantra, make the 2011 version as reliable as they come.

Speaking on the topic of the ALG award, Hyundai Motor America’s vice president for Product and Corporate Planning, Mike O’Brien said, “Achieving such tremendous value retention speaks to the overall quality and merit of the Elantra. Vehicles that retain their value in the long-term offer a lower overall cost of ownership to the customer, allowing Hyundai to offer strong lease options to consumers and better resale value at trade-in time for our customers who purchase their vehicles.”

World Hyundai, a prominent Chicago Hyundai dealer, is happy to take part in Hyundai’s effort to fight the battle on cancer.  Hope on Wheels, an initiative by the Hyundai Corporation, is a proud partner with medical researchers in the fight against cancer.  Since 1998, this Illinois Hyundai dealer, along with the other 800 Hyundai dealers across the United States, has partnered in order to help children battle against cancer.

An initiative started by New England area Hyundai dealers to raise funds for The Jimmy Fund, the cause has evolved into Hope on Wheels.  As of 2010, the program has helped to raise and donate more than $23 million to various hospitals around the country.

Illinois Hyundai Dealer Gives Back

The main avenue of fundraising for Hope on Wheels has been through a $5 donation for every car sold at a Hyundai dealership.  This Chicago Hyundai dealer is proud to allow its Hyundai owners in the Chicago area contribute to helping children fight cancer for almost 12 years.

With Hope on Wheels comes the Hope on Wheels Tour.  The 2010 Tour traveled to 42 different children’s hospitals across the country and donated over $2 million to researching and further train individuals in the fight against childhood cancer.  Another important part of the 2010 Hope on Wheels Tour was the Handprint Ceremonies for childhood cancer patients, past and present.

The symbol for this event was a white Hyundai Santa Fe, a vehicle that was used to celebrate the courage of all childhood cancer patients.  Children present at the ceremony were asked to lend their hand and place their handprints on the vehicle to commemorate their battle with cancer.

You may be asking why the handprint was selected as the symbol for the event.  This Chicago Hyundai dealer is proud to say that the symbol was selected because the handprint is one of the more personal marks a person can make, something completely natural to each person and unique to each child.  The main goal of the Hope on Wheels Tour is to share the stories of children battling cancer and look to give hope to the millions of children out there with cancer.

In September 2010, the Hyundai initiative took on a bigger endeavor than previously seen with Hope on Wheels.  This Illinois Hyundai dealer along with the 800 other dealers set out to raise and donate more than $6.8 million for cancer research and training.

When buying a car with Hyundai, it is not completely in the self-interest of making a profit for Hyundai.  Their goal, along with that of World Hyundai, is to give back to the community that has given so much to them over the years.  Hyundai is always looking to give back to the community in any way possible and the Hope on Wheels initiative is one that will surely help those in need.
