Resale price is an increasingly big factor when it comes to making a new vehicle purchase, and evidence of this is seen in the growing number of awards that honor vehicles for retaining their value after being purchased. We here at Hyundai of St. Augustine think that this is a great sign, as drivers are always looking to get the most out of their next vehicle, and these awards servce to spotlight models that might not be in the mainstream's eye just yet.

One such example are the "Best Resale Value Awards," which are held each year by the people at Kelley Blue Book. The awards feature a top ten list of vehicles that perform the best in their class, and this year, the 2012 Hyundai Tucson was featured on it. The South Korean CUV is more than just versatile. It's efficient, dynamic, and fun. And each of these traits directly translates into a vehicle that will have a high demand for used models in the coming years.

Mike O'Brien, Vice President, Product and Corporate Planning, Hyundai Motor America says that it "does an excellent job of artfully combining state-of-the-art safety features, design and affordability."¹ How does it do so? We think the following more than speaks for itself, so take a look and be prepared to be impressed!
