Chalk up another award headed Hyundai’s way as the Hyundai i30 was voted as the best car in New Zealand. The Automobile Association of New Zealand announced on Friday that of the 53 cars nominated, Hyundai’s i30 has won this year’s AA Supreme Motoring Excellence award, having already topped the compact car category.
Judges evaluated the Hyundai as “excellent in all areas, especially road safety and vale for money.” “This car can be the answer for those who are looking for an economical, but reliable vehicle. The Hyundai i30 Diesel Elite closes the gap with Europe’s best,” they added.
Judges considered the design, performance, dynamics, practicality, execution, value for money, and safety of the cars nominated, to pick winners for 13 categories. The winners included the Ford Focus XR5 Turbo in the performance category, Volkswagen’s Polo BlueMotion Diesel in the environment category, and the Peugeot 308 XSP in the safety category. The large car award went to the Holden Sportwagon SV6.
