Hyundai Motor America, a leading manufacturer of fuel-efficient automobiles, has announced plans for maintaining its leadership and achieving a CAFE (corporate average fuel economy) rating of a minimum of 50 mpg (miles per gallon) by the year 2025 for its light duty trucks and passenger cars line up.
Hyundai Motor America has been the number one fuel-efficient automaker in the U.S. since 2008. Since becoming the fuel economy leader, Hyundai Motor America’s market share has gone up by 50%. The company’s next goal is to make use of innovative Blue Drive technologies. The current NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) regulations necessitate automakers to obtain CAFE ratings of 35.5 mpg level by the year 2016.
Hyundai Motor America has shown time and again that customers will be flocking towards stylish, high-quality products that offer high fuel economy. The all-new Hyundai Sonata sedan is a game-changer as it offers a 35-mpg EPA highway rating while leading its competitors in terms of power output by way of using advanced GDI (gasoline direct injection).
Hyundai Motor America’s success story stems from the fact that the company does not fight fuel economy regulations, rather, it encourages its engineers towards delivering better fuel efficiency at a faster pace, thus accelerating the benefits reaching its customers, society as well as the planet.
