Hyundai Dealer Serving Jacksonville Shares News of AutoPacific Award

Aug. 22, 2011 - PRLog -- Hyundai of St Augustine serving Jacksonville shoppers is thrilled to confirm the news that AutoPacific named the Hyundai Elantra (and Hyundai Azera) 2011 Ideal Vehicle Award (IVA) winners in their respective categories.  The information is derived from 72,000 surveys completed by owners of new cars and light trucks in the United States in the first half of 2011.  

Jacksonville Hyundai Elantra shoppers helped 2011 model lead the way to record breaking sales and accomplishments this year. Sales of the 2011 Elantra helped Hyundai break records and set new standards in the compact car category.

Since being introduced to Jacksonville Hyundai Elantra shoppers, the 2011 model has been on the short list of many sedan shoppers.  The newly redesigned Elantra boasts a sophisticated fluid design, advanced safety features and impressive fuel economy.  In terms of appearance, Elantra is an evolution of the design qualities found in the highly acclaimed Sonata.

Fuel efficiency makes the Elantra an obvious choice for longer travels and highway driving, but there are plenty of other reasons why Jacksonville Hyundai Elantra shoppers of all lifestyles will appreciate the new model.  Inside, the Elantra is spacious, providing class-above mid-size car interior volume, touch-screen navigation with rearview camera and iPod®/USB inputs, Bluetooth® hands-free phone system with voice recognition, and heated rear seats (a segment first).

AutoPacific’s Ideal Vehicle Awards measure the fusion between owner expectations and the reality provided by the manufacturer by quantitatively measuring how closely a vehicle matches those expectations.  To determine the winners, owners rate their new car or truck on how close it came to “ideal” in 15 different categories ranging from power and acceleration to safety features and storage.  The vehicles that customers said they would change the least were considered the most “ideal.”
