Keep the receipt: Hyundai buyers can take back the car if laid off

Filed under: , ,

If you need a new car but your job at the First National Bank of the City Federal isn't exactly guaranteed, Hyundai has an offer just for you.

The Hyundai Assurance Program gives buyers some peace of mind that if they lose their jobs during their first year of ownership, they won't have to pay back the full amount owed on their cars. Hyundai is teaming up with Walkaway USA to provide the 12 months of protection at no extra charge to buyers.

There are plenty of catches, though. Hyundai buyers must have made at least two payments on their new cars, be current on said payments, and their reasons for unemployment must fall under a list of common causes. The plan also only covers $7,500 worth of depreciation. In other words, if you beat the hell out of your Hyundai and your car's now worth $7,500 less than what you paid for it, you gotta come up with the rest. There's also probably a clause somewhere in there somewhere that also sticks the buyer for tag, title, taxes, fees, etc. etc.

Otherwise, drive your new Genesis for 11 months, re-enact Jack's Smirking Revenge from Fight Club and take the car back.

More Details on Hyundai Veracruz

Veracruz_1

Hyundai has spared few details on its upcoming flagship SUV, the Veracruz. Now, the automaker has launched the vehicle in Korea, and Hyundai spokesman Miles Johnson confirmed the model hitting our shores will look much the same. The photos here are of the Korean model.

The automaker plans to launch the 2007 Veracruz at the Detroit Auto Show in January.

There aren't too many details available, as the Korean model has features specific to its market. Hyundai says the U.S. Veracruz will use the 3.8-liter V-6 found in the Azera sedan – where it makes 263 hp – and a six-speed automatic transmission. Seating for seven will come standard, as will a full complement of safety features: an electronic stability system, antilock brakes, side curtain airbags and more.

Johnson expects some overlap between Santa Fe and Veracruz buyers, as the redesigned Santa Fe SUV offers up to seven seats, too. What buyers get is a larger V-6 – 3.8 liters instead of 3.3 – and roomier dimensions. Hyundai says the Veracruz will be larger than the Honda Pilot, with which it competes, and offer more cargo room than the Mercedes GL450. Expect a starting price north of the Santa Fe, which costs from $21,000 to $28,000.

We've driven the Santa Fe, and it's reason enough to believe Hyundai SUVs are nearing Toyota and Honda quality. Whether the Veracruz can finally bridge the gap is a question we won't answer until next year.

More photos after the jump.
