While we here at Hyundai of St. Augustine love vehicles from our favorite South Korean automaker for their stellar design, envious fuel economy, and affordable price, there's one more aspect that Hyundai has not been receiving its due credit for. We're, of course, talking about safety.

Is that something Hyundai is known for? In fact, it is. After all, what good are the aforementioned traits if they're not enjoyed in the utmost safety? And to prove its ability to protect you and your passengers, Hyundai has even imbued its lineup with enough leading-edge safety tech to take home six Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) "Top Safety Picks" titles.

Now comes the part where we let you in on what models took home the prestigious honor. They are the Hyundai Elantra, Sonata, Genesis, Equus, Tucson, and Santa Fe. This covers everything from the most compact hatchback to the most versatile crossover and everything in between. In other words, now there's no excuse to say that you can't afford a safe ride.

"For the second year running a record number of models qualify," says Institute president Adrian Lund. "It's tough to win, and we commend auto manufacturers for making safety a top priority."¹

If you'd like to learn more about these vehicles, or any other new Hyundai, then feel free to contact us online or by phone at (888) 292-9681. We can answer questions about financing or leasing specific models, as well as how you can easily maintain them with Hyundai parts. Regardless, we look forward to seeing you at 2898 US Highway 1 St. Augustine, FL 32086 in the near future!
