Hyundai
has been making huge strides in quality improvement.
In survey after survey, Hyundai has made important
gains, impressing the industry and our owners
alike. Did you know that Hyundai has over 900
engineers dedicated solely to quality?
That our assembly plant in Alabama is one of the
world's most advanced?
Hyundai's new plant is technologically and environmentally
state of the art - it has been certified as being
among those with the highest automotive operating
standards in the world. It's here that the new
Sonata and Santa Fe are being built, especially
for the American market.
Every new Hyundai out of our Alabama
plant has at least 2.3 miles on the odometer?
Every Hyundai that comes off the assembly line
is immediately road tested on our special test
track, to ensure that everything on your new Hyundai
is working exactly the way it should. No squeaks
or rattles are acceptable.
That we have intolerant robots?
We have more than 250 welding robots, and additional
robots that check the work of those welding robots.
Complex optical sensors at these check stations
measure tolerances, ensuring tight welds and minimal
gaps between panels.
That we test every single vehicle?
We’re so driven to perfection that we don’t
just test a sample of vehicles, but we test every
one coming off the line in Alabama. Here we ensure
the integrity of the door seals by putting the
Sonata through a high-pressure water chamber.
