The 2020 Hyundai Venue subcompact crossover SUV, is the perfect city car. Its small size allows for easy maneuverability in city traffic, and it’s easy to fit into tight parking spots due to its short wheelbase. Let’s take a look at five reasons why 2020 Hyundai Venue should be your next urban car. 

1. Perfect Size for the City

You can choose from three trim levels, SE, SEL, and the fashionable Denim version. All trims have a perfect 99.2-inch wheelbase that’s ideal for parking, whether it’s on the street in front in front of your apartment or home, in a busy parking lot, or inside a garage with minimal space. You’ll get great outward visibility because the Venue rides on 15-inch alloy wheels that sit you up higher than most sedans. This makes it easy to spot pedestrians, bicyclists, and other cars.

2. Hip Denim Edition

Show off your unique personality when you drive the Denim trim. This striking model has an all-blue exterior with a white roof and accents, and the interior has denim and simulated leather upholstery. The fenders are flared slightly to accommodate the larger 17-inch wheels which gives it a distinctly aggressive and sporty look.

3. Zippy Performance

When you need fast acceleration to get onto the freeway, the 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine that delivers 121 horsepower and 113 pound-feet of torque can get the job done. Paired with the engine is a continuously variable transmission for seamless shifting. The front-wheel-drive system provides plenty of traction on a variety of terrain, and the drive mode select feature lets you effortlessly shift between modes. Driving modes are normal, sport, and snow, and they help to optimize your driving experience in varying terrain and weather conditions. Read the rest of this entry »

The 2020 Hyundai Elantra is every commuter’s dream. It’s equipped with advanced technology and safety features while sporting a modern look and feel. Here are a few reasons why the Elantra is a great ride for your daily commute. 

1. Capable Performance

The 2020 Hyundai Elantra is a very capable car when it comes to commuting. Most of the Elantra trim levels are equipped with a standard 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine and a continuously variable automatic transmission, delivering up to 147 horsepower. The Elantra GT Hatchback has the same engine, but it’s paired with a six-speed automatic transmission giving it 161 horsepower. The Elantra Eco trim level features a 1.4-liter turbocharged engine that’s paired with a seven-speed automatic transmission, providing you with 128 horsepower.

If you’re going for a sportier look, you can try out the Elantra Sport. Its 1.6-liter engine combined with a seven-speed automatic transmission or six-speed manual offers an impressive 201 horsepower. While none of these engines will have you hitting the race track, they offer more than enough power for your everyday commute.

What makes the 2020 Elantra a perfect commuting car is its impressive fuel economy. The Elantra’s base engine, the 2.0-liter, gets 30 mpg in the city and 40 mpg on the highway. The ultimate money saver is the Elantra Eco, with 33 mpg in the city and 41 mpg on the highway. If you’re hooked on the sportier trim levels, no worries. Their fuel efficiency is still quite good with 26 mpg in the city and 33 mpg on the highway.

Another key performance feature that every commuter wants, aside from power and efficiency, is comfort. Thanks to the 2020 Elantra’s suspension, this feature is more than covered. Every ride is smooth and gentle, its steering responds well, its brakes are strong, and it handles like a champ.  Read the rest of this entry »

A key part of keeping your vehicle running for as long as you need it is maintaining your car’s battery, but no matter what you do, batteries typically only last between two and five years. Because this is a necessary vehicle part, follow our maintenance tricks for extending your car’s battery. 

Keep Lights Off Until You Need Them

One of the top culprits of a battery running out before its time is when a driver leaves their interior lights or headlights on when they aren’t needed. If you don’t take the time to make sure your vehicle is dark once you’ve locked those doors, you may find yourself with a dead battery in the morning. This is an important one, so think about writing yourself a note and leaving it where you’ll see it when exiting your car, or setting a reoccurring alarm on your phone that will remind you to check your vehicle lights.

Test and Clean Your Battery

It’s important to understand how your battery is doing so you have a good idea of how much life it has left. Your battery’s condition will clue you in on if your maintenance measures are working or if you need to replace your battery before it affects your vehicle’s performance.

When testing your car battery, clean it at the same time. It’s common for a battery to collect dirt and grime, which can lead to corrosion, one cause of shorter battery life. To clean your battery, mix baking soda with hot water and gently scrub the terminals, followed by a quick rinse and a thorough dry. Read the rest of this entry »
