HYUNDAI GENESIS AND SANTA FE WIN 2016 CONSUMER GUIDE® AUTOMOTIVE BEST BUY AWARDS

The 2016 Hyundai Genesis and Santa Fe/Santa Fe Sport earned the “Best Buy” awards from Consumer Guide® Automotive in their respective segments. The Genesis was recognized in the large car segment, and the Santa Fe/Santa Fe Sport won in the midsize crossover/SUV category. Consumer Guide Automotive has been the leading publisher of authoritative, unbiased new- and used-car reviews for 50 years. The “Best Buy” awards were presented at the 2016 Chicago Auto Show.

Consumer Guide Automotive’s editorial team evaluated vehicles based on features that consumers highly value: price, features, performance, accommodations, fuel economy, reliability and resale value. Consumer Guide Automotive also test-drove these vehicles through different driving experiences, including rural areas, highways and road trips. For 2016, 39 Best Buys have been awarded in 20 classes.

“The Best Buy accolade from Consumer Guide Automotive demonstrates the unprecedented value across our lineup—from the Santa Fe crossover to the Genesis midsize luxury sedan,” said Brandon Ramirez, senior group manager, product planning, Hyundai Motor America. “We won this award two years in a row, which is a testament to our continued emphasis on producing vehicles with high value and driving experience.”
