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.

Despite being produced on a tight budget, the 2008 Ford Falcon has earned the nod as New Zealand’s Car of the Year for its excellent performance handling, value for money and ease of operation.

The FG-series Falcon was one of nine finalists for this year’s New Zealand Car of the Year award, which is open to new models launched in New Zealand during the 12 months prior to 1 November 2008. The others were the Fiat 500, Honda Accord Euro, Hyundai i30, Jaguar XF, Mazda 6, Nissan X-Trail, Subaru Forester and Volkswagen Tiguan.

Not many people are aware of the existence of the Ford Falcon, an economical car with home and quality finish that can appeal to any car critic today. Garnering the award is an achievement in itself and it certainly helps boost the Ford brand as well.
