Seafair Annouces Hyundai as New Event Sponsor - Hyundai Uncensored at Titus-Will Hyundai

One of Seattle’s most exciting and longest running community events is thrilled to announce a brand new sponsor, one that is also deeply connected to the community. Seafair is proud to now be supported by the Western Washington Hyundai Dealers, including Titus-Will Hyundai in the Olympia Auto Mall.

“Our group of 13 dealers are truly excited to come together to participate in the 2010 Seafair” said Jim Walen, president of the Western Washington Hyundai Dealers Association. “Every year for the past half century, Seafair has been THE most talked about event in this community and now that we’re just a few days away we can’t wait to join in Seattle’s Summer Celebration.”

The Hyundai pace car will be leading the fun as some 300,000 people gather for the Seafair Torchlight Run that starts at 6:30, Saturday, July 31st in downtown Seattle, and the Torchlight Parade which follows at 7:30 that night. You’ll also find Hyundai vehicles prominently displayed at the high-power, high-decibel event everybody wants to attend: the Unlimited Hydroplane Races, Friday and Sunday, August 6-8.
 

“Being a partner with an event like Seafair fits right in line with the community-based, local-first vision we want to invest in. Hyundai is a proud partner of the Hope On Wheels Program - an ongoing campaign against childhood cancer. Since 1998, Hyundai Hope on Wheels has donated more than $14 Million to regional children’s hospitals to help kids fight cancer.

Hyundai Uncensored, Hyundai Summer Sales Event for 2010, is being heavily promoted in conjunction with Seafair by Titus-Will Hyundai in the Olympia Auto Mall.
 

“This is an exciting event that will bring together people from all over Washington State,” says Walen. “This is also an exciting time for us as Hyundai dealers. We were recently named by the Environmental Protection Agency as the Most Fuel Efficient Carmaker in America. Hyundai is now proud to feature 7 models in our lineup that get 30 miles per gallon or more. We’ll have many of our award-winning vehicles on display during the various Seafair events.

If you live in Tacoma, Lakewood, Fort Lewis, Yelm, Olympia, Lacey, Tumwater, Shelton, Aberdeen, Chehalis, or Centralia, Titus-Will Hyundai in the Olympia Auto Mall is where you will find the best deals on a new or certified pre-owned Hyundai. Titus-Will Hyundai is located at the entrance of the Olympia Auto Mall in the former Saturn of Olympia building.

Hyundai Uncensored - Sonata $199/Month @ Titus-Will Hyundai in the Olympia Auto Mall

Hyundai Sonata was the most-shopped vehicle in May according to data from Compete, a Kantar Media company. Sonata was on more shopping lists (130,000) than any vehicle in the industry, topping perennial leaders like Toyota Camry, Honda Accord, Honda Civic and Ford Fusion according to Compete’s analysis of website traffic patterns.

Test drive a Hyundai Sonata at Titus-Will Hyundai in the Olympia Auto Mall. During the Hyundai Uncensored summer sales event, you can lease a new Hyundai Sonata for just $199 per month at Titus-Will Hyundai.

Demand for Hyundai hit an all-time high of 324,000 shoppers on the strength of Sonata and the all-new 2010 Tucson. This drove Hyundai’s share of market interest (SMI) to 11.6 percent, up from 7.4 percent in Dec. 2009. That growth propelled Hyundai past Nissan (11.2 percent) and closer to Honda (12.9 percent) and Toyota (14.2 percent). Industry-wide, May 2010 shopper volume (2.8 million) was the strongest since February 2008.

“Consumers are discovering that the all-new 2011 Sonata builds on the nameplate’s legacy of value with exciting design, best-in-class fuel economy and outstanding residual value,” said Scott Margason, director of product planning, Hyundai Motor America. “The combination makes Sonata a top contender in the competitive mid-size category, so we are pleased, but not surprised, by the market reception so far.”

Hyundai’s all-new 2011 Sonata represents a modern approach to the traditional midsize sedan segment by using only advanced four-cylinder engines, emotional design and luxury features offered with Hyundai’s strong value proposition. The Sonata launched with a new Theta II 2.4-liter gasoline direct injection (GDI) engine and in-house six-speed automatic transmission. The vehicle offers class-leading fuel economy of 22 mpg city/35 mpg highway and 198 horsepower standard. Both hybrid and turbo powertrain options will be available at the end of the year.

“We saw interest rising for the Sonata immediately after its introduction around the Super Bowl, and it has stayed red hot ever since," said Dennis Bulgarelli, director of Automotive at Compete. “Not only are we seeing prospects put Hyundai on their shopping lists in record numbers, we're also seeing Hyundai do a great job converting those shoppers to buyers. Its May sales of nearly 50,000 were 33 percent higher than a year ago, with Sonata sales nearly doubling year-over-year.”

Consumers Star in Hyundai 'Uncensored' Integrated Marketing Campaign @ Titus-Will Hyundai, Olympia, WA

Hyundai will launch a new integrated marketing campaign in July starring everyday consumers. In a mall tour spanning from Atlanta to Chicago to Los Angeles in May and June, Hyundai captured the unscripted, unedited remarks of drivers as they tested various Hyundai models. Those impromptu remarks highlight the Hyundai “Uncensored” campaign. A total of six new spots will be joined by digital, radio, social media, experiential, CRM and point-of-sale components as the campaign ramps up in July and runs through the end of August.

Titus-Will is kicking off the Hyundai Uncensored Sales Event a few days early.

While you're here, enter our drawing for a $1000 Gas Card!

Hyundai Uncensored is Hyundai's national sales event for July and August 2010. Hyundai went to different cities and set up hidden cameras inside Hyundai vehicles while consumers drove them. Comments included "That's a good looking car," "Hyundai has come a long way," "The gas mileage is really good," and "I'm gonna buy it."

“Hyundai ‘Uncensored’ was born out of the insight that consumers are most influenced by other consumers, so we captured totally organic conversations from people inside our cars and packaged them into an integrated campaign,” said Chris Perry, vice president of marketing, Hyundai Motor America. “Going one step further, we’re giving consumers the opportunity to drive our cars and tell their friends about the experience through social media components of this campaign.”

The 30-second spots highlight Sonata, Santa Fe, Accent and Elantra as well as Hyundai’s full model lineup. Messages include the peace of mind provided by Hyundai Assurance including America’s Best Warranty and roadside assistance, design, value and Hyundai’s industry-leading fuel efficiency. Advertising will air on both cable and network television, and outtakes will be posted to Hyundai’s YouTube channel by mid-month. Hyundai’s adverting agency, Innocean Worldwide Americas, is responsible for the creative.

The experiential campaign focuses on two key strategies. First, 125 non-Hyundai sedan owners will be given a new 2011 Sonata to drive for 30 days. Their comments will be posted – unscripted and unedited – on Hyundai’s Facebook site. The second is a multi-city ride-and-drive which includes a video booth where consumers can film their drive impression and post video directly to their own Facebook page.

Cadillac To Provide Standard Four-Year/50,000-Mile Maintenance Program

Titus-Will Cadillac in the Olympia Auto Mall is excited to announce that Cadillac will provide owners of all 2011 models with frequently required maintenance services for the first four years or 50,000 miles as it seeks to build the best customer service experience in the luxury segment.

2011 models are expected to arrive in the Titus-Will Cadillac showroom in September.

The program, called Cadillac Premium Care Maintenance, covers scheduled oil changes, tire rotations, replacement of engine and cabin air filters and a multi-point vehicle inspection.  

“Cadillac is adding Premium Care Maintenance as a way to extend customer service beyond the sale,” said Kurt McNeil, vice president of Cadillac sales and service. “The program is designed to raise satisfaction for owners by ensuring access to expert service. It should lead to higher loyalty rates for dealers by establishing them as a valued resource for our customers.”

Cadillac Premium Care Maintenance launches with the arrival of the 2011 model Cadillacs. The CTS family, which is being expanded this year to include the all-new CTS Coupe, will be the first of the 2011 models to arrive at U.S. dealerships in late summer.

Premium Care Maintenance is the latest in a host of Cadillac initiatives that elevate the luxury ownership experience.  It joins other Cadillac customer service and ownership benefits including:

• Five-year, 100,000-mile Powertrain warranty along with standard 24/7 Roadside Assistance and Courtesy Transportation. 
• Four-year, 50,000-mile vehicle bumper-to-bumper warranty coverage.
• Standard one-year OnStar Directions and Connections plan, which includes Automatic Crash Response, Turn-by-Turn Navigation, Vehicle Diagnostics and Stolen Vehicle Assistance.
• Standard XM Radio with a three month trial.

In 2009, Cadillac placed second in the industry in both the Sales Satisfaction Index and Customer Satisfaction Index studies from J.D. Power & Associates. A survey by AutoPacific of 2010 new vehicle buyers rated Cadillac No. 1 in total satisfaction.

“Cadillac rates among the industry’s best in customer satisfaction, but we have room for improvement,” McNeil said. “Cadillac Premium Care Maintenance is another step in our goal to set the standard for the industry in customer service.”
