We reported a few days ago on the launch of Hyundai’s replacement for the Tucson – the Hyundai ix35 – in its home market of Korea, and once reports of the launch hit the Interweb Hyundai decided to issue a picture of the European version. But now we have the video of the ix. Which […]

Hyundai ix35 / Tucson ix launched
Well yes, it has been launched, but only in Korea. We reported a few days ago on the new Hyundai Tucson – the Hyundai ix35 in Europe – but we won’t get the release in Europe until Frankfurt, although there will be more dribbles of info before then. Still, interesting to look at the ix35 […]
Hyundai i40 / Sonata spied
As we’ve reported before, Hyundai are on something of a roll at the moment. Their sales are storming onward and upwards despite the car world being in the biggest slump there has ever been, and not just because Hyundai are selling cheap cars when people are looking for the lowest cost option. The fact is […]
Hyundai ix35 teased ahead of Frankfurt
Hyundai has been in the news lately, mainly because of the way it’s managed to react to the Scrappage schemes here, in Europe and in the USA.

But it is proving to be a boost to beleaguered car dealers and manufacturers as people stream in to showrooms to take advantage of the headline £2,000 discount.

Kia cee’d Facelifted – launches at Frankfurt
It’s been Hyundai that has taken the glory lately at the budget end of cars. But Kia are playing a good game, and the cee’d is very much up there as a budget option to a mainstream European model like the Golf or Focus. True, it’s very derivative and not terribly exciting, but if your […]
Hyundai guarantee petrol / gas prices
Hyundai is making a real name for itself, not just with a very good range of cars, but also with the way it is capitalising on the Scrappage Schemes in the UK and Europe and the Cash for Clunkers Programme in the US. Hyundai has come out top of the Scrappage Scheme sales in the […]
Hyundai – Top of the Scrappage heap
I don’t think it took a genius to work out that it would be the manufacturers of small, cheap and economical cars that would be the big winners in the Scrappage Wars. After all, if you’re going to get a £2,000 discount on a new car, £2k is a huge chunk of a £7k car, […]
