Bridgeport, Connecticut, United States

  hi. my mechanic and good friend down the street called me on this car. I was a little skeptical, but went down to help out. the car turns out to be pretty nice; please see all photos. solid body and paint, intact interior, full power, windows, locks, cruise, tilt, sun roof, cloth and more !~~

  turns out the previous owner, customer, drove the car daily and the engine failed. we can't say how or why, but the motor does not turn over at this point. too many projects and a bunch of loose ends means it is for sale. I can get close to $400 by junking the car, but it seems a shame. I have had one or two of these Hyundai's before, they run and drive great. comfy cars, safe and reliable. too nice to just scrap it, why not bid and buy. great project and a solid car to work with. just 3 blocks off I-95, exit #24, an hour from new York city (or less).

 

please feel free to bid, buy, pick up, call or email anytime. thnx ~!~

Hyundai twin-charged 1.8L GDCI gas engine expected to be more efficient than 2.0L diesel

Fri, 15 Nov 2013

Despite the growing trend of automakers offering diesel-powered or electrified powertrains, there's still a whole lot that can be done with the good-old gasoline internal combustion engine. And at Hyundai, that's exactly what's being worked on - new gasoline engine technologies that improve both performance and efficiency. During an event at the automaker's technical center in Superior Township, MI on Friday, Hyundai gave Autoblog a glimpse into the future, offering up preliminary details on its new GDCI (Gasoline Direct-Injection Compression) engine - something that will be heading to production soon.
Hyundai's main goal with this GDCI engine is to "achieve diesel levels of fuel efficiency with conventional gasoline," according to Nayan Engineer (yes, his last name is Engineer), one of Hyundai's powertrain gurus. What's more, Engineer says the GDCI engine will offer "equal to better performance than conventional gasoline engines" and will have a "lower system cost [than] diesel engines."
Hyundai expects a 1.8-liter GDCI engine to be more efficient than a comparable 2.0-liter diesel engine with similar performance.

Hyundai's 2015 Genesis Super Bowl commercial is Dad-approved

Mon, 27 Jan 2014

Super Bowl commercials allow advertising and marketing execs the opportunity to let their hair down, have a bit of fun and get silly. That's why Audi's ad features a mutant, CGI-animated dog, GoDaddy's spot features a beefcake Danica Patrick and Kia has recruited Laurence Fishburne as Morpheus, from the Matrix films. Hyundai, meanwhile, didn't seem to get the memo.
It's not that its spot is bad, but it does feel a bit boring, playing a lot like Hyundai's non-Super Bowl advertisements - in other words, not something we're going to be talking about next Monday around the water cooler. Called Dad's Sixth Sense, the 30-second clip shows off the 2015 Genesis Sedan and its auto emergency braking system, after showing dad's saving their kids from what we imagine would be fairly painful, and in some cases horrific, accidents (tackling a hot barbecue, anyone?).
We've got the full spot down below. Keep your eye out for it on Super Bowl Sunday.

Hyundai to build test facility at N"urburgring

Sun, 20 Jan 2013

It looks as if Hyundai is set to build a test facility at the famous Nürburgring. Carscoop reports the Korean automaker has commenced construction on a 10,000-square-foot test center with access to the lengthy German track. Hyundai says the $7.3 million facility will help the company focus on improving the ride and handling of its vehicles through extensive research and development.
Sounds like a plan to us. While we've seen Hyundai vehicles improve on many fronts over the past few years, the company continues to struggle with suspension refinement compared to its Japanese, German and domestic rivals.
Automakers routinely flock to the Nürburgring for testing and development thanks to the track's unusual attributes. With a variety of surfaces, banking, turns, elevation and even weather, the circuit offers engineers the ability to put a vehicle through its paces in a wider range of conditions than most facilities.
