Hyundai Unites With the Recording Academy® as Official Vehicle Partner

Three-year Partnership Connects Music’s Biggest Brand with Hyundai’s Passion for Creativity to bring Original Works of Art to Music Fans

 

 

Tapping into the power of music, Hyundai joined forces with music’s biggest brand – The Recording Academy^® (internationally known for the GRAMMY Awards^®) – to become its “Official Vehicle Partner.” The multi-year partnership extends well beyond awards night and will result in original music projects sure to please music fans across many genres and categories. In addition to being the exclusive GRAMMY^® vehicle partner, Hyundai is working directly with The Recording Academy to identify and support new projects reflecting the brand’s creativity and desire to celebrate music year-round.

The partnership is being forged as Hyundai launches the 2012 Veloster, an innovative three-door coupe including technology that will change the way creative individuals experience driving. The first of many collaborations with The Academy is a unique concept called the RE:GENERATION MUSIC PROJECT that will yield a documentary film called “RE:GENERATION” which follows five modern DJs who - through the use of technology - are changing the way the world creates and experiences music. The project will also create five new electronic music tracks influenced by everything from country to classical. The new tracks include participation from multiple GRAMMY Award winners as they collaborate with each DJ to re-imagine their genre in each DJs’ unique style.

“The all-new Hyundai Veloster, our three-door sporty coupe, connects with an audience that loves music,” said Steve Shannon, vice president of marketing, Hyundai Motor America. “Music and driving go hand-in-hand and Veloster gives creative individuals the tools to re-imagine a modern music soundtrack. Over the next few years, we’ll commission original works of art and new music projects that we can share with music fans everywhere, and the RE:GENERATION MUSIC PROJECT is the perfect kick-off to our collaboration with the GRAMMYs.”

A trailer of the “RE:GENERATION” film is available at: www.regenerationmusicproject.com and at youtube.com/veloster. Music videos and song downloads for all five music tracks will also be posted. More than 1.25 million visitors have already accessed content from the RE:GENERATION MUSIC PROJECT through social media channels. As the sole benefactor, Hyundai will also bring the story, content and experiences to this creative audience through film screenings, music festivals, digital apps, social media, online streaming and PR over the next 12 months. The Recording Academy will help make the film available by hosting special screenings and through its own social media channels.

"We are thrilled to partner with Hyundai to connect fans and car consumers to the power of music on Music's Biggest Night^® and throughout the year," said Evan Greene, chief marketing officer for The Recording Academy. "Our brand partnership celebrates excellence in music and innovation, and we look forward to nurturing this relationship with exciting and creative projects over the next year."

Hyundai will play a starring role for the GRAMMYs as both the “Official Vehicle Partner” of the GRAMMY Awards and GRAMMY Week. Hyundai’s partnership begins with two 60-second spots on the Nov. 30 CBS GRAMMY Nomination Show which will include content from the RE:GENERATION MUSIC PROJECT as well as behind-the-scenes footage. Then, as part of GRAMMY Week, Hyundai vehicles will grace the red carpet, chauffeur stars to the awards ceremony, and be on display at the official GRAMMY Celebration^® after-party, as well as the Special Merit Awards and GRAMMY Nominee Reception. Hyundai will also be a part of the Pre-GRAMMY Gala & GRAMMY Salute To Industry Icons^® event at The Beverly Hilton Hotel the night before the awards telecast. Ten GRAMMY viewing parties in Recording Academy Chapter cities will include Hyundai displays as well. The 54^th Annual GRAMMY Awards are set to air live from Staples Center in Los Angeles on Feb. 12, 2012, on CBS at 8 p.m. ET/PT.

"My Mother's Hyundai (a 2003) had an engine problem, and these folks stood behind their warranty (best warranty in the business is NOT hype). They really went to bat for us. I was astounded at the excellent service! I know what my next car will be. Thanks Inver Grove Hyundai." - kathalily

Hyundai Launches All-new Azera in L.A.

Just introduced at the Los Angeles Auto Show, Hyundai’s full-size family sedan—the Azera—receives a full-size makeover for the 2012 model year, showcasing a new look, new powertrain and new levels of interior comfort. The sleek and sophisticated sedan is the capstone to Hyundai’s 24/7 version 2.0 product initiative, which has seen the introduction of seven all-new vehicles in the past 24 months, including the Tucson, Sonata, Equus, Elantra, Accent and Veloster.

And like those vehicles, the 2012 Azera now wears the Hyundai’s “fluidic sculpture” design language. It’s an appearance designed to appeal to the emotions, with flowing lines, a bolder grille bracketed by HID headlamps, and an athletic, aggressive stance, all encasing a premium, highly detailed interior. That cabin offers significantly more room for 2012 as well, with front-seat passengers enjoying best-in-class legroom and headroom: More than 45 inches of the former and over 40 inches of the latter.

Other standard enjoyment enhancers in the cabin include:

• Touchscreen navigation with a rearview camera—the only such standard package in the Azera’s class
• Ambient lighting and “3D Carbon” accents
• Power rear sunshade and class-exclusive manual shades for the side rear windows
• Electrochromic auto-dimming rearview mirror
• Seven-speaker “Dimension” AM/FM/HD/Satellite Radio/CD/MP3 audio with iPod/USB/auxiliary input
• Bluetooth audio streaming and hands-free phone system and voice recognition
• 90-day complimentary subscription to Hyundai’s comprehensive Blue Link telematics system with agent-assisted look-up
• Cooled glove box
• Dual automatic climate control with second-row air vents
• A wide-range of premium seating features, like heated leather seating surfaces (front and back), a 10-way power-adjustable driver’s seat with memory, an eight-way adjustable front-passenger seat and a new impact-reducing safety system that is expected to reduce head and neck injuries by 17 percent as compared to the 2011 Azera

Key interior options include front ventilated seats and a powerful 550-watt Logic 7 audio system from Infinity, with 12 speakers—including an eight-inch subwoofer—and available external amplifier.

Also amplified is the Azera’s power—and fuel economy. Providing the motivation for the 2012 Azera is a high-tech 3.3-liter V6 with features such as gasoline direct injection and continuously variable valve timing. Backed by this kind of technology, the lightweight, all-aluminum engine delivers a significant power upgrade to the Azera, which now packs 293 hp (an increase of 33 hp) and 255 lb.-ft. of torque (22 lb.-ft. more than for 2011). But at the same time, this high-efficiency powerplant also provides improved fuel efficiency, which is now up to 20 mpg city/29 mpg highway/23 mpg combined—no other car in the Azera’s segment does better. The standard transmission: Hyundai’s own six-speed automatic.

Hyundai engineers also made sure that the Azera’s ride and handling were improved to match, courtesy of suspension innovations like ZF Sachs’ Amplitude Selective Dampers (ASD). This system enhances ride comfort and driver control, but without compromising the car’s surprisingly nimble reflexes. Much attention to weight reduction helps here, too. In fact, the Azera is more than 200 lbs. lighter than the Buick LaCrosse and more than 400 lbs. lighter than the Ford Taurus.

Conversely, customers can expect the all-new 2012 Hyundai Azera to have a heavy impact on the sales scene when it comes to market early next year.

Hyundai's new Azera sedan: Not luxury... Or is it?

Hyundai's new Azera full-size sedan has a 293-horsepower engine, heated leather seats front and back, a standard navigation system with a rear camera, a full suite of safety gear, xenon headlights and LED rear lights. But make no mistake: Hyundai doesn't consider it a luxury car.

For all its features, the new Azera is a front-wheel drive that's larger than Hyundai's popular Elantra and Sonata sedans. That makes it unlike the big, luxurious Hyundai Genesis and Equus sedans that have startled the luxury market.

Azera is so proletarian, in fact, that Hyundai Motor America CEO John Krafcik, in a light-hearted moment after the Azera's introduction at the Los Angeles Auto Show yesterday, said could be a good choice for practical-minded investment bankers under seize by Occupy Wall Street protesters.

"It might be the perfect car for the 1% who don't want to be lambasted by the 99%," he joked.

Azera is powered by a more powerful Lambda II 3.3-liter fuel-injected V-6 engine with a six-speed automatic transmission transmission. Yet it will get combined fuel economy of 23 miles per gallon.

Krafcik says the car will compete against models like the Toyota Avalon, Chrysler 300 and Nissan Maxima. But he said that consumers in marketing surveys thought it might be a ready alternative to a Lexus, a pure luxury brand.

Remember, though. Azera is not a luxury car.

New spy shots of the 2013 Hyundai Elantra hit the web before of its official public unveiling!

New Hyundai Elantra Coupe, which is scheduled to make its official U.S. premiere at the L.A. Auto Show next week, has been caught sitting in a parking lot not far away from Hyundai Motor America’s headquarters.

Thanks to its heavy camouflage, the pictured car on the images exposes only a bit of sheetmetal, but we can clearly see it is a 2-door coupe with elongated door on each side. The forth-coming Elantra Coupe also sports a new alloy-wheels design and small spoiler at rear, while distinctive headlights confirm this is definately the Elantra 4-door sedan sibling model.

At this point we have no confirmed information about the 2013 Elantra Coupe’s powertrain options and performance figures, however, we are expecting the 2-door coupe to feature the same 148-horsepower 1.8L Nu four-cylinder engine as found under the hood of the 2012 Hyundai Elantra sedan.

A six-speed manual transmission is expected to be available across all trim levels, while six-speed automatic gearbox will be optional.

As mentioned before, the all-new 2013 Hyundai Elantra Coupe will make its premiere at the 2011 Los Angeles Auto Show on Novemebr 16, at 10:30 am – Pacific time.

"I went here to buy my first ever car, and despite being inexperienced and rather nervous about the whole thing, the people here (and Lisa, the sales rep) were very nice about the whole thing, and made the process as painless as could be. They were all very informative and friendly, and by the time it was done I was rolling off the lot in my new Accent--which is, by the way, an awesome car. But yeah, they all did everything they could to help me out and make sure I got what I needed while understanding what was happening. Everyone made sure my first experience with buying a car was the best. Thanks, everyone!" - Leigh

"I stumbled upon Inver Grove Hyundai when my Santa Fe had to be towed in from Wisconsin last year to have a warrantied item repaired. They were the closest dealership to my home. I was so impressed with their service that I switched from the dealership where I had bought the car and I've never looked back. I traded in my 2009 Santa Fe for a 2011 Tucson there last summer and now always use them for maintanance. For both Service and Sales they are top-drawer professionals- courteous, responsive and above all accountable. They've made dealing with dealerships a pleasure." - Eaganbanker

"Great staff friendly staff!!!! Angie, Hung, and Bob are the greatest! Received the best deal on my Veloster and they even located a Maunal Transmission for me from Wisconsin, talk about going the extra distance. Love my new car and love talking to the staff. Thanks again guys." - Nicdub

"What a great experience! My saleperson Mike was awesome and Carrie in finance went above and beyond to get the deal done!! Thank you!! I love my Tucson. I recommend this dealer to anyone who is looking for a new or used vehicle and great people to work with!!!" - Lisa

"My experience at Inver Grove Hyundai was just terrific. I was looking for a specific flavor of the Santa Fe and they had it. Lisa, my sales rep was outstanding. She was not only knowledgeable on the car, but also infectiously enthusiastic. She made the entire process fun and quick. 3 hours after arriving, I was driving home my new car. Couldn't be happier (… unless I win the lottery tomorrow)."

Hyundai Drops the 5.0L V8 into the RMR Genesis Coupe: SEMA 2011

So, what's missing from the Hyundai Genesis Coupe (other than a little bit of history, that is) to enable it to play in the big boys league? Why a V8 powerplant of course, and who better to make the transplant than Rhys Millen and his performance shop.

Making its world premiere yesterday at the Las Vegas 2011 SEMA Show is the RM500 Genesis Coupe complete with Hyundai's most powerful stock engine under its hood, the 5.0-liter Tau V8.

“From the moment I saw the Tau V8 engine in the Genesis R-Spec and Equus, I knew it would be a perfect fit for the Genesis Coupe, adding even more performance and power to the dynamic coupe,” said Rhys Millen, owner, Rhys Millen Racing [RMR].

Even though RMR's goal was to keep everything else as sleek and stock as possible, the tuning firm couldn't resist some mild modifications to the 5.0-liter mill that gained a titanium tip exhaust, oil cooler and rear differential cooler for an extra 20 horsepower boost, lifting output to 449-horses.

The RM500 also debuts a new line of RMR products for the South Korean maker's rear-wheel drive coupe including a comprehensive but not over-the-top, carbon-fiber aero package comprising of a front lip, spoiler, rear diffuser, side skirts, fog light ducts and grill, plus new 19-inch alloy wheels and Brembo carbon ceramic rotors with Brembo six and four piston calipers.

The only changes to the interior include an RMR suede trim package and Sparco accents.

"I got my new car from here about two weeks ago. The experience was pretty good, the staff continuously made me feel as if they were trying to do everything they could to give me exactly what I was looking for. I ended up ordering my car, through the whole process I thought that everyone was doing their best; at times going above and beyond what you'd expect. I would definitely recommend this place, everyone is friendly and attentive. By the way, I got a Veloster and it is a fabulous car. My mind was blown at how Hyundai is making so many nice cars and this one is simply brilliant." - fcp078

After driving dozens of cars and trucks in a variety of North American urban settings, they panel selected Veloster as a stand-out performer in the 2012 class.

Hyundai’s all-new 2012 Veloster delivers innovation to the compact coupe segment with standard features such as a unique third door for easy rear-seat access, Hyundai’s Blue Link™ telematics system, Pandora® internet radio, seven-inch touch-screen display, and a new 1.6-liter Gasoline-Direct-Injected (GDI) four-cylinder engine and six-speed transmission. GDI technology helps deliver highway fuel economy of 40 mpg, lower emissions and higher reliability. With a starting price of $17,300 (plus freight), Veloster adds great value to its compelling list attributes.

“Conceived to attract new, youthful drivers to the Hyundai brand, Veloster stands out from the crowd with a stylish yet functional design that combines the best characteristics of both a coupe and hatchback,” said Scott Margason, director, Product Planning, Hyundai Motor America. “The unique personality of the car is attracting many different types of shoppers and we’re honored that the panel of experts with Decisive magazine felt it met the needs of urban drivers so well.”

The Urban Vehicles of the Year winners and finalists will be honored at the 16^th Annual Urban Wheel Awards (UWA) on Sunday, January 8, 2012, the MotorCity Casino Hotel’s Sound Board Theater in Detroit, Michigan.

“The Hyundai Veloster is a combination of a hip and edgy image, along with exceptional value to price and outstanding fuel economy that is perfectly suited for urban drivers,” said Lyndon Conrad Bell, Decisive magazine’s editor-in-chief. “Hyundai’s choice to make its halo car an entry-level model excites us even more. With Veloster, Hyundai definitely proves that high style and reasonable pricing absolutely can go together.”
