Kelley Blue Book Adds Two Hyundai models to their Top Ten List for Parents and Students

Kelley Blue Book's site, www.kbb.com, has recommended the 2008 Hyundai Tucson and Hyundai Elantra as two picks in the “Top 10 New/Used Back-to-School Car" category.

These “Top 10" lists are meant to facilitate students' and parents' decision about the purchase of their next automobile. The site offers expert advice from its editors on which car is best suited for students and parents from two important perspectives -reliability and safety at low cost.

Both new and used cars are taken up for this assessment. For a car to qualify for the new car category, a car has to be priced at below $18,000, while a used car's value has to be under $12,000.

These two models were chosen because they are built stronger and carry more features than before. Also, they offer the best safety and convenience features in their price bracket. These are held as important considerations by students and parents.

The 2008 Tucson is loaded with many safety and convenience aspects. The important features that make this a safe vehicle for students and parents alike are Electronic Stability Control (ESC), active front head restraints and six airbags. In tune with students' requirements, it comes with new entertainment features like standard XM Satellite Radio® and an auxiliary audio input using which the driver can listen to music from an iPod® or mp3 player among other interior amenities.

The Hyundai Elantra is a reasonably priced sedan that got great marks for its safety. It earned the maximum of five stars in National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). It also earned a “Good" at Insurance Institute for Highway Safety's (IIHS) crash tests, the highest earned rating possible. In addition, it carries more interior volume than its main competitors, the Civic and Corolla.
