BTW, I got my SF from Mang Nonoy as he had the model and color I wanted at that time. Tell him I'm the one who got the Black Santa Fe CRDI 2.2 4WD on June 30.

best thing about this is a hyundai owner can sell his unit after 3 years and he still can get a good resale value coz may 2 years warranty pa for the next owner

unlike cars with only 3 years warranty, nasa risk na ng buyer.

magaling ang think tank ng Hyundai. I read about their COO, a 39 yr. old woman sa isang magazine sa gym kanina.

in 2k1, she was recruited from the Cityland sales group. what she did was apply the 5-5-5 strategy, rise up 5 am in the morning, target 5% market share and become the 5th largest automaker in the Philippines.

from 500M gross sales in 2k3 to about 1.5B last year. right now, this year daw they are apporaching 3B in terms of car sales. doble na. and their goal is only to get 8% market share of sold cars today. btw, they now rank 4th overall in the Philippines.

i wont be surprised na brainchild na ito 5 year warranty program

and dagdag pa yun steam ng mga Koreans to be on top, kaya continuous ang labas ng magaganda Korean cars

Sayang nga at nawala yung 40K discount para lang sa warranty,ganyan din ang Ford at Mazda pero hindi masyadong nakatulong sa sales nila..

Hyundai has similar (awesome) warranty terms. 5 year bumper-to-bumper, and 10 year for powertrain, 7 years against rust. it's much better than most other auto brands here, that typically go 3-4 years bumper-bumper.

they had to in order to overcome their initial reputation for piss poor quality, but i have to say they have really made a comeback. a great case study for any business school classroom...

The extended warranty strategy was a real killer in the US. Hyundai was able to get a big bite sa US market.

5-year warranty will give a perception of impeccable quality. An image Hyundai wants to achieve.

Grabe, ganito na ba katindi ang automotive market sa Pinas? Regardless, this is good for the consumer.

So where can we see the details? May link na ba? or press release?
