Get a break from rising gas prices

Fuel prices are rising, again. In two days, the price jumped to 134.9 cents per litre in Castlegar from 120.9 cents, an 11.5 per cent increase. Whether its the threat of reduced supply or the onset of spring that's driving the signficant increase, the only sure bet is that fuel is getting more expensive. Recognizing this trend, Hyundai Canada has introduced a new program in March. It is offering a discount on fuel for Hyundai purchasers. This fuel card will help soften the blow of rising fuel prices. At the same time, Hyundai's vehicle lineup is getting increasingly fuel efficient. For example, the Hyundai Elantra, recently named North American Car of the Year, is rated at 58 mpg on the highway. The Hyundai Sonata, our mid-sized sedan, earned a 50 mpg rating driven by its gas-direct injection or GDI engine technology. At Castlegar Hyundai, we have increased our supply of fuel-efficient cars, cross-overs and SUV's as more drivers look to trim their fuel costs. Aside from discounted fuel, we are offering several other programs this month, from improved finance rates, extended warranty at no charge and special pricing on some of our popular models.
