FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif., Dec. 22, 2010 – Four Hyundai models, including the North American Car of the Year finalist Sonata, achieved the 2011 Top Safety Pick honor from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). Joining the Sonata in receiving this top safety distinction are the Hyundai Genesis, Santa Fe and Tucson. Top Safety Pick recognizes vehicles that do the best job of protecting people in front, side, rollover, and rear crashes based on “good” ratings in Institute tests. Winners also must have available electronic stability control, a crash avoidance feature that significantly reduces crash risk.

FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif., Sept. 22, 2010 - The Santa Fe has a refined design, proven dependability, versatility and an extensive list of standard features for a broad range of customers. For 2011, the Santa Fe adds new exterior colors. Combine these new colors with a choice of two fuel-efficient engines mated to six-speed transmissions and the 2011 American-made Santa Fe is still one of the smartest choices in the competitive mid-size crossover segment.
