Hyundai Tucson Features

The 2016 Hyundai Tucson starts at around $23,000, and is one of the best selling and performing SUVs in the market today. It has tons of technological features that make the driver's life much easier, even in difficult driving situations, some of which come with the standard trim, but let's be honest we all want to hear about the cool gadgets that you can upgrade to, so let's begin!



Lane Departure Warning

One of the cool gadgets you can upgrade to in the 2016 Hyundai Tucson is the lane departure warning system. This system helps keep drivers, passengers, and pedestrians safe from distracted drivers by alerting the driver when he or she has started drifting out of the lane. We all know when this happens, We've all been there before: We're driving down the street and something (or someone) grabs our attention. Perhaps it's something that someone is wearing (or not wearing), maybe at the beach, maybe you even try to roll down your window to get a better look, or to verbally give your approval of the decision of the person to wear what they're wearing. No sooner do you start to make your move than you realize you're in the wrong lane, headed for an oncoming truck!

Yes, sometimes looking for love can hurt, but it doesn't have to with lane departure warning! This is a feature that you can opt in for with the 2016 Hyundai Tucson.

Dynamic Bending Lighting System (DMLS)

Dynamic Bending Lighting System is a system that moves the headlights in the direction that you are driving in. These are particularly useful when you are driving on a winding road, especially at night, and in a wooded area.

With static and traditional headlights you are only illuminating the area directly in front of the car, which, in the middle of a turn, is often times just the trees behind the rail in front of you. With dynamic bending light you see in the direction you will be going in, not the direction you are at any given moment. So if you're going straight the light is illuminating the area straight in front of you. However, if your're turning right the light is illuminating the area to the right of you so you can see where you are going.

Heated and Ventilated Seats

Probably the feature we are looking forward to mentioning the most is the heated and ventilated seats that are optional with the limited package of the 2016 Hyundai Tucson. This feature blows hot or air conditioned air through the front and rear seats so that you are in direct contact with the air that you want to feel - cool air in the summer, and hot air in the winter.

The 2016 Hyundai Tucson is available in Colorado Springs at Hyundai of Chapel Hills. Visit them today to schedule a test drive!

Hyundai Elantra Features

2015 Hyundai Elantra Features

There are certain factors that people in Colorado Springs look for in a car: fuel efficiency; interior space; and safety. The fuel efficiency is especially relevant to Colorado drivers due to all the hills in this mountainous region. The interior room comes in handy because so many of us like to be able to grab our tent, our bags, and our dogs, and go out for a nature-themed weekend getaway. Finally, safety is of course always important for all drivers. The Hyundai Elantra is the perfect vehicle for anyone who's looking for the perfect combination of all of these factors, and more!

Fuel Efficiency 

The Hyundai Elantra features an awesome fuel economy with estimated 38 miles per gallon on the highway. That leaves Colorado drivers plenty of money for camping gear, and other essentials after filling up and heading out for their trip!

However, it doesn't sacrifice power for fuel efficiency. This sedan gives you up to 173 horsepower, which is more than what the Toyota Corolla or the Honda Civic offers. Also, the horsepower and fuel efficiency combine nicely with the 6-speed automatic transmission to give drivers a smooth ride, and the ability to drive efficiently in city traffic.

Interior Space

The interior of the Hyundai Elantra has so much room the EPA classifies it as a midsize sedan. Given that the comparable brands like the Corrola and Civic are classified as compact cars this car is literally in a class by itself. Other interior features include power windows, power door locks, and 60/40 split fold-down rear seats. Want some luxurious upgrades? Choose a 7-inch touchscreen with rearview camera, sunroof, a and blutooth hands free phone system!

Safety

When it comes to safety the Hyundai Elantra has been given a 5-star safety rating by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. This car comes Vehicle Stability Management system that gives you more control steering through difficult roads. It also features Electronic Stability Control, which helps avoid crashes in split-second situations, six standard airbags, and side impact beams, also standard. Buyers can also chose to upgrade to includea blind spot sensor in the side-view mirror, and rear view camera. 

The 2015 Hyundai Elantra is the perfect car for any driver, anywhere. Stop by Chapel Hills Hyundai in Colorado Springs today to test drive one!
