2017 Hyundai Santa Fe

In a recent issue of Consumer Reports, this trustworthy organization gave the popular new Hyundai Santa Fe high marks in reliability, ride, comfort and more.  They also placed one of their coveted “Check Marks” for a Recommended Vehicle for this family hauler. You can make your due diligence when you see this Santa Fe up close and personal with the friendly folks at Huffines Hyundai McKinney and take an enjoyable test drive.

You will appreciate the Santa Fe's SE standard features that include 18-inch aluminum wheels, 8-way power driver seat, dual-zone automatic climate control, and even automatic head-lights.  Other great news is that Hyundai expanded the choices.  Available are two or four wheel drive, six or seven seat configurations and four distinct models.  There is a Santa Fe for anyone's budget and style. 

Since the Santa Fe is a family orientated vehicle, Hyundai gave it a new group of safety systems.  That is great as you always have precious cargo on board.  Now available is a multi-view parking camera, adaptive cruise control, lane-departure warning, automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection and more.  The payback in this investment could be huge. 

On the outside, the new Santa Fe gets new wheels, head-lights, new stylish grill and front and rear bumpers.  When you open those wide doors and slide into the Santa Fe's comfy and sturdy seats for that test drive you will see and feel more updates.  Its center stack has been rearranged to place Hyundai's large 7.0 inch touchscreen display, and is easy to reach and especially to learn that incorporates Android Auto phone integration.  Also available is an eight inch screen.  Many believe the dash layout is more intuitive than others with actual dials for audio and a large central dial for easy navigating. A large color screen situated between the large analog gauges can be customized with vehicle navigation or infotainment info. 

In fact, Consumer Reports rated the Hyundai's infotainment system Blue Link very high in customer satisfaction.  This people hauler can also be your office on wheels.  On your test drive, you and yours will like how quiet and comfortable the ride is in a sporty way.  This year you also have a choice of three drive modes.  Choose the Sport and the steering and throttle response changes to a more dynamic sensation.  If your desire is to save fuel while cruising down the highway, then use the Eco mode.  The Normal setting speaks for itself. 

Driving you quickly down the road and under the stylish hood is the tried and true 290-hp 3.3-liter V6 mated with a smooth shifting 6 speed automatic transmission.  Your Santa Fe can also be set up to tow those Ski-Doos to the lake with power left over.  Also available is leather, ventilated front seats, panoramic sunroof or even an awesome 12-speaker audio system and more. 

Everything just comes together with the new Hyundai Santa Fe.  So, if you are searching for that stylish, practicable, and satisfying family vehicle then do check out the Santa Fe with the good folks at Huffines Hyundai or visit online at http://www.huffineshyundaimckinney.com and expect an enjoyable experience.

2017 Hyundai Veloster

Searching for a sporty and practical hatchback that will never get lost in a large parking lot?  Then check out the new Hyundai Veloster with the friendly folk’s at Huffines Hyundai McKinney!

This uniquely styled four-seater with three doors is a standout and one cool looking car coming or going.  This Veloster is in a class all by its own and it isn't only because of the three doors.  Most vehicles in this group seem to all look the same and you have to get up close to see what manufacture the car came from, not with the Veloster. 

This very sporty looking hatchback is a head turner; the Veloster can even be had with a Matte paint option, which often starts conversations and stares.  Another very positive surprise is what this Veloster costs along with its gazillion-mile warranty; so much value with so little investment. 

On your test drive you will find that this aggressive looking Veloster comes with a peppy 1.6-liter four cylinder that delivers 138 horses and is designed to keep you ahead of traffic.  The precise standard six-speed stick has low-effort throws and raises the fun factor in your driving experiences.  Also, a dual clutch six-speed automated manual is available. 

If you want some more zip in your trip, then take a test drive in the strong and popular turbo-charged four banger Veloster that lets out over 200 thoroughbreds and is mated with a seven speed automatic.  This twin scroll turbo has lots of low end power; punch it at any RPM and the Veloster delivers.  You will make excuses just to drive it anywhere. 

You will quickly find the seats are comfortable and sturdy and probably the best performance-style seats in its class.  Then for your communication and entertainment desires, you have Hyundai's very efficient and popular Blue Link setup.  Owners say it is just amazing how easy it works.  No help from your teenager here.  Hyundai's quick to learn voice command and Bluetooth systems rank highest for owner satisfaction per Consumer Reports.  This trustworthy organization also gave the Veloster one of their coveted “check marks” for a Recommended Vehicle.  So what is holding you back?  Can't be the price, reliability or customer satisfaction or the slew of standard features that include a rearview camera, a touch screen infotainment system, satellite radio, unbelievable warranty and much more.  Great fuel economy also comes standard with 30 mph plus that will let you pass those gas pumps.  The “clincher” is that this Veloster is just as fun to drive as it is to be seen in.  This three-door hatchback, especially with the popular Turbo and 7-speed auto can be a rocket ride. 

So, take that short drive to Huffines Hyundai McKinney or visit them online at http://www.huffineshyundaimckinney.com and take a spin in the Veloster and maybe check out the Rally Ultimate Edition as only 1200 were made.  It is awesome!  The bet is on that you will leave with a smile, not only because you put that “fun factor” back in your drive times, but because of the deal you received.

HYUNDAI GENESIS

A fellow was walking the beach, when he found a bottle with a Genie in it.  Opened it and the grateful Genie gave the astonished guy one wish.  He thought long and hard and said: “Give me a luxury sedan under 40K.”  Presto! A new Hyundai Genesis appeared in his favorite color. 

The good thing here is that you don't need a Genie's help to see a Genesis.  One is waiting for your inspection at Huffines Hyundai McKinney where you can enjoy a test drive.  You also don't have to be a genius to understand that sales price includes a slew of standard equipment and features that Genesis's competition push as add-on. 

They start thousands of dollars higher before being fitted with many of Genesis's features.  That is what brings on “sticker shock”.  For example, this Hyundai has standard dual automatic climate, navigation with a large eight inch screen, backup camera, leather trimmed comfy seats with 12 way power adjustments, rain-sensing wipers, proximity entry and start, Bluetooth and much more.  The list of standard equipment is about as long as the Genesis.  If you desire more, then move up a notch to the fully loaded Ultimate model without the kitchen sink. 

Under its stylish hood powering you and yours on that test drive is a DOHC 24-valve V6 with direct fuel injection refined engine.  This very aggressive six pushes out 311 horses and 293 lb-ft of asphalt gripping torque that will scoot you to 60mph in just a couple blinks under six seconds.  You can now appreciate green lights as they spell FUN.  Not bad for a car that weighs over 4200 pounds.  The Genesis is mated with a smooth gear sliding 8-speed automatic with manual shifting mode.  For those who prefer more urgency in their drive times, then also test drive the rear wheel driven Genesis V8 that lets 420 frisky thoroughbreds run with its 5.0-liter eight. 

When you begin that test drive you will quickly notice how quiet and comfortable the ride is and sometimes the road fades away as an afterthought.  Another enjoyable feature is the mode drive system that includes ECO, Normal, Sport and for severe weather the Genesis has the Snow mode. 

If you desire more control behind the wheel, then opt for the All-Wheel drive setup. To even give you more confidence in owning a Hyundai Genesis is that the trustworthy folks at Consumer Reports gave the Genesis one of their coveted “Check Marks” for a Recommended Vehicle.  In fact, seven Hyundai's received this recognition.  The Genesis also received the highest level for customer satisfaction.  That means at least 80% of Genesis's owners would buy or lease it again. 

That says a lot by itself, but do not take anyone's word, be it car critics or Genie's and just do your own thing by visiting the Genesis first hand with the friendly folks at Huffines Hyundai McKinney.  Visit http://www.huffineshyundaimckinney.com today! Don't be surprised if a grin appears.  It could be magic.
