Hyundai: Canada's Most Awarded Brand for Safety

For families in the Battlefords, all the exciting bells and whistles of a new vehicle don’t mean nearly as much as the safety features. Sure, cargo space, a comfortable interior, and convenient infotainment are key features to look out for, but ensuring you and your loved ones are safe on the open road sits at the very top of the list. Thankfully Hyundai vehicles are not only affordable, comfortable, and well-designed – but they’re also Canada’s most awarded brand for safety. Each model comes with a standard suite of safety features that exist to support your awareness on the road, keeping you, your passengers, and everyone else around you on the road safe. From IIHS (The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety) to NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration), Hyundai vehicles dominate the competition when it comes to safety awards!

Making Safety the Standard

Before showing off too much, let’s discuss a few of the features that make Hyundai vehicles so great, to begin with! Each model is equipped with Hyundai's signature safety suite, Hyundai SmartSense. Innovative safety features include a range of camera, radar and motion detection technologies to provide you with added peace of mind. Let’s face it, roads and other drivers can be unpredictable, and one of your biggest challenges is avoiding the dangers and obstacles you don’t see coming. Comprised of sensors, cameras, alerts and alarms, plus brilliant software that ties them all together, Hyundai SmartSense includes applications like Smart Cruise Control, Lane Keeping Assist and Driver Attention Warning, to act as an extra pair of eyes and ears. Other key features include:

• Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with Pedestrian Detection (FCA-Ped)
• Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist (BCA)
• Blind-Spot View Monitor (BVM)
• Lane Following Assist (LFA)
• High Beam Assist (HBA)
• Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with Pedestrian Detection (FCA-Ped)
• Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist (BCA)
