Although 2009 has been a bad year for the automotive industry in general, it hasn’t been too bad for Hyundai. Thanks to high-value cars, excellent warranties, and unbeatable incentives, Hyundai has been gaining market share while other automakers have been crippled. What also sets Hyundai apart if the praise it has received for exciting new products, particularly the automaker’s Genesis flagship.
Over the years, Hyundai has steadily improved quality, putting it on par with its Japanese competitors touts one Hyundai dealer specializing in Saint Louis used cars. A perfect example of how far Hyundai has come in terms of engineering and quality can be seen in the Genesis Sedan. Not only did it receive the esteemed 2009 North American Car of the Year Award, but World Hyundai says it has been praised by numerous publications and industry sources.
The Hyundai Genesis Sedan has been given top honors from numerous media outlets and prominent automotive groups throughout North America. From Motor Trend to J.D. Power and Associates, the Hyundai Genesis has thrilled journalists and consumers alike.
Next year, a new flagship, the Equus sedan, will take its place atop Hyundai’s lineup. If the praise the Genesis has received thus far for its luxury, quality, and value, is any indication of what can be expected when the Equus arrives, Hyundai Service Kingston expects Hyundai to keep surprising everyone. See below for a selection of recent accolades.
