If you've been considering a new car purchase, you've probably heard a lot of buzz lately about electric vehicles. People often ask us about the benefits of electrified cars, and we always have a lot to say on the subject. Electric vehicles are environmentally friendly, fuel-efficient, and high-performing. Plus, they typically cost less to operate and maintain.
Hyundai has a tremendous lineup of these models that we're proud to offer our customers around Walnut Creek. Here's an overview of some of our favorite Hyundai electric models you'll find at Future Hyundai of Concord.
Sedans
Hyundai has two hybrid sedans to consider, the Elantra and the Sonata. If a compact car that's fun to drive is your dream, you won't want to miss the Elantra. It seats five and offers best-in-class head, shoulder, and leg room. Get an estimated 56 miles per gallon as you turn heads driving around Concord, CA. As a full-size sedan, the Sonata is a bit larger and offers a bold, sophisticated design. Expect 54 miles per gallon. You can opt for the available solar roof to boost the battery charge.
SUVs
Electrified SUVs in the Hyundai lineup include:
- Kona Electric
- Tucson Hybrid
- Tucson Plug-In Hybrid
- Santa Fe Hybrid
- Santa Fe Plug-in Hybrid
- Ioniq 5
- Nexo Fuel Cell
Each of these offers its advantages and will save you money in fuel, whether driving around Walnut Creek or heading farther from home. In general, a hybrid engine combines a gas engine and electric motor to provide more efficiency. Plug-in hybrids allow you to use charging stations to recharge your battery. Electric cars are powered fully by the battery, and a fuel cell vehicle uses hydrogen rather than gasoline to power up the battery.
