One year ago, Hyundai promised to become the leading manufacturer in fuel economy. Hyundai has delivered by topping the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency fuel economy report. Hyundai passed all major manufacturers in Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) including traditional leaders like Honda and Toyota. The report demonstrates the effectiveness of Hyundai’s value-driven fuel-efficiency strategy, which focuses on the intelligent application of cost-effective technologies. The report also backs up Hyundai’s leadership in the race to achieve the government-mandated 2016 CAFE standard of 35.5 miles per gallon.
The EPA 2009 Light-Duty Automotive Technology and Fuel Economy Trends Report indicates that Hyundai has the highest MY 2009 laboratory 55/45 fuel economy with 30.1 miles per gallon (mpg). Hyundai is also the only manufacturer to top 30 mpg in the report.
“Hyundai’s thoughtful application of cost-effective, fuel-efficient technologies helped them achieve their goal of leading the industry in fuel economy ahead of schedule,” said Tracy Myers, owner of Frank Myers Auto Maxx (a used car dealership in Winston-Salem, NC). “With gas prices rising once again, we hope that our customers begin to understand how much Hyundai really cares about helping people save money by developing great cars that are really good on gas.”
