With the year 2012 now behind us, and we find ourselves bombing full force into the New Year, Future Hyundai of Concord would like to take a moment to reflect on some of the excellent sales performance shown by a certain New Hyundai model. Of course we are talking about the 2013 Hyundai Elantra.
In 2012, the Hyundai Elantra put up some record breaking sales figures, making it one of the bestselling vehicles in our current lineup. In total, 186,361 vehicles went from dealership lots to the driveways of happy Hyundai customers.
Take a quick look at the Elantra and it is not hard to see why this model is so popular. Chiefly, it is the 1.8-liter I-4 engine hooked up to a 6-speed manual transmission. Together, this hardware generates 148 horsepower. If that doesn't seem like a lot to you, perhaps you will change your mind when you rarely have to fill the tank. The Elantra gets an astonishing 28 mpg city and 38 mpg highway.
John Krafcik, president and CEO of Hyundai Motor America
said in a recent statement, "Adding the third shift to our plant in
Alabama this year has allowed us to better meet demand for Elantra. Elantra
buyers love its recipe of ALG-class-leading residual value, bold design, and outstanding
value. With a full year of three-shift U.S. production in 2013 we hope to
introduce even more American car buyers to Elantra next
year."
