Hyundai Motor Company Avante has risen to the top in the North American market, which is considered the largest battleground in the global automobile market.

Hyundai Avante, Genesis G80, and Nissan Centra, who were nominated in the passenger car category for the ‘2021 North American Car, Truck and Utility Vehicle of the Year’ held on the 11th (local time), will fight fiercely. After unfolding, Hyundai Avante (local name: Elantra) was finally selected in the’North American Car of the Year’ passenger car category.

North America Car of the Year organizers said that Avante was “a popular vehicle in the sedan line,” and said, “Innovative design with parametric dynamics theme, cutting-edge convenience features such as digital keys, and fuel economy are highly appreciated.”

This is the second time that Hyundai Motor Company Avante has been awarded the Car of the Year, and this is the fifth time for Hyundai Motor Company (Hyundai Genesis 2009, Avante 2012, Genesis G70 (passenger sector) / Hyundai Kona (utility sector)) of the year. Achieved the feat of winning the car.

This year is also the year in which Korean automobiles produced the largest number of finalists in North America, following last year. GV80 in the SUV category, including Avante and G80 in the passenger category, were named as finalists. Half of the six finalists in the passenger and SUV category were Korean cars.

The’North American Car of the Year’ is recognized as the world’s most prestigious, so it is called an Oscar in the automobile industry. It is evaluated that the world’s highest authority comes from the fairness and reliability of the North American Car of the Year selection.

The North American Car of the Year Organizing Committee was established in 1994 and has been selecting the best cars ever released that year for 27 years. After selecting the best cars in the two categories of passengers and trucks, from 2017, SUVs became a trend in the automotive industry and added the utility sector.

The judges to select the car of the year consisted of 50 experts working in automotive magazines, television, radio, and newspapers in the US and Canada.

An official from Hyundai Motors said, “Avante is consistently gaining great popularity with over 100,000 units sold in the US market throughout 2020 by meeting customer needs with dynamic design, advanced technology, and fuel efficiency and performance.” Avante, who confirmed that he is the strongest player, is expected to lead the US passenger car sales and show a greater role in the global market with this award.”

Hyundai’s Avante was unveiled to the world for the first time in March of last year in LA. The dramatic four-door coupe look with the theme of parametric dynamics design is equipped with advanced features such as wireless Apple CarPlay™, Android Auto™, and Hyundai digital keys for the first time in the segment. This year, we launched a product lineup that meets the needs of various customers, including the addition of an Avante hybrid model with more than 50 MPG (about 21.2 km/l) combined fuel efficiency (US EPA estimated fuel efficiency evaluation) and performance models such as Avante N and Avante N lines. I am going to do it.
