Hyundai Automotive South Africa amplified its 25-year anniversary by hosting Hyundai Fun Fest celebrations at various Hyundai dealerships across the country.
Guests were treated to music, food stalls, dance as well as cash giveaways to coincide with the 25 years of operating in South Africa. The celebrations were the first ignition sparks in a series of events across the country, culminating in a national celebration next month that promises even more excitement, innovations and surprises.
"These celebrations are a thank you to our loyal customers who have made these 25 years possible. Part of the festivities include a historic journey through augment reality, tracing Hyundai Automotive South Africa’s history from 2000 to its current brand elevation," says Stanley Anderson, CEO of Hyundai Automotive South Africa.
“Our dealerships are the heartbeat of our business, so it made strategic and perfect sense to kick off the celebrations right from our showrooms, with our customers. We are celebrating our journey, at the same time looking forward to 25 more years of growth. From humble beginnings to becoming one of South Africa’s most loved automotive brands in this highly competitive industry, is no mean feat. Thank you South Africa,” says Stanley.
Electric vehicles (EVs) have introduced a whole new vocabulary into motoring. Instead of simply talking about litres of fuel, cylinders and kilometres per tank, motorists are now confronted with kW, kWh, AC, DC, WLTP, regenerative braking and a host of other terms.
Young South African motorists are increasingly opting for more affordable and practical vehicles as the cost of living puts pressure on household budgets, while still maintaining comprehensive insurance cover.
The row over BMW’s Spider-Man promotion is not really about superheroes. It is about trust, control and the creeping feeling that modern cars are becoming digital platforms first and private possessions second.
