The automotive industry has come a long way since the first vehicle was invented! From safety to technology to overall design and quality, automotive innovations are nothing short of tremendous. We at McCafferty Hyundai of Langhorne and Philadelphia, PA, are continually impressed with the evolution of Hyundai vehicles, so let's take a look at some of the many innovations created by the company's brilliant design team:
Technology
Hyundai's "relentless" dedication to improving powertrain efficiency and performance is unmatched. Resulting achievements include Gasoline Direct Engine (GDE) technology, which "pushes out power" while improving fuel efficiency. Hyundai's engines were named on Ward's renowned 10 Best Engines list an astounding four times since 2009, as the design team works tirelessly to develop better engines.
Technology in the automotive industry doesn't stop at engines. Hyundai's Blue Link technology provides drivers with a mechanic, concierge and security team from the comfort of the dashboard, thus creating "the ultimate co-pilot". You'll never lose your car in a parking lot again thanks to the vehicle's light and sound features, and if it gets stolen, you can program the car to shut down once a police report is filed. And those are just some of the features Blue Link offers!
Safety
Hyundai vehicles are filled with safety features the company hopes you'll "never have to use" when driving around Philadelphia, PA, with such features recognized and celebrated by the Insurance Institute of Highway Safety. Vehicles are tested and re-tested for high-speed frontal crashes, rollover and side crashes; advanced safety technology features found on every Hyundai vehicle include anti-lock brakes and electronic brake-force distribution for optimal stopping power. Electronic Stability Control and Traction Control help prevent skidding, as Hyundai is dedicated to creating vehicles that allow you to maintain control when you need it most.
Hyundai's safety innovations also include a number of features dedicated to creating less of an impact upon collision. Front and rear crumple zones work in conjunction with each vehicle's reinforced unibody construction to protect the cabin while absorbing impact. The head is protected from whiplash thanks to active head restraints that move up and forward, while up to nine airbags deploy upon impact to keep you and all passengers safe.
Design
The automotive industry has also evolved in terms of design, as attention to detail is about "creating a better driving experience", not just "looking good". Hyundai vehicles feature more room than their competitors, while the "energy and movement of nature's contours" are incorporated into each car's silhouette. Front and rear heated leather seats and seven-inch touchscreen navigation systems are two more exceptional examples of the many impressive design features Hyundai owners have come to expect from their vehicles.
