The 2012 Hyundai Veloster – The Ultimate Car for the “Tween” Years

Tuesday, October 11, 2011


What are mothers saying about the Veloster?

“This car is perfect for that younger, 1st time car buying crowd, but you’re right, it will take you right into mother…or father…hood. It seems like a sweet combo of stylish and sensible and is taking the place of the Tiburon who we miss dearly. Can’t WAIT to test drive it and stream Pandora!”

“The 4th door was chosen to be removed because it allowed gas mileage to increase as a result. 40 mpg hwy isnt anything to sneeze at..combination of losing that door and Hyundai manufacturing their own steal makes this car a win-win. I have an 18 month old daughter and this is just what my husband and I are looking for! Affordable, techy, hatch, sporty and yet still family friendly!”


It’s not a full-size family car, but it boasts even a body structure that adds a considerable safety measure in letting kids exit the car only on the safe side of the street.

Hyundai Leads the "Connected Cars" Revolution

Thursday, August 11, 2011

Rick Case Hyundai, the leading new and used dealership in Fort Lauderdale, knows cars are no longer just a motorized solution that transports people from point A to B. Today cars help to protect you, and literally direct you and connect you with your near and dear ones while on the roads.

Modern cars have come to be known as connected cars. Most of the cars in the US today are equipped with Bluetooth, connecting with mobile devices, embedded telematics and broadcast services. Hyundai is in the forefront of developing connectivity features in cars and Rick Case Hyundai believes Hyundai’s Blue Link technology is a significant step as far as connectivity in cars is concerned.
A Blue Link-enabled Hyundai car is very much technologically advanced so that it knows exactly where you are and where you are heading. Furthermore, it knows every shortcut and point of interest in the area. It identifies gas stations and their prices; it can locate restaurants and what other people thought of the food. In the event of any mechanical issues, the Blue Link not only self-diagnoses the problem, but can even make the appointment to correct it! In the unfortunate case of an accident, Blue Link can make calls seeking assistance. Together with the Hyundai Assurance program – featuring America’s best warranty, roadside assistance, and trade-in value guarantee program – and with a host of other similarly beneficial built-in features, the Blue Link keeps you protected and actually simplifies your life.

Perhaps the most interesting features of Blue Link are those in the “Safeguard Package,” which includes some unprecedented features that can offer permanent solutions to some inherent life risks – growing teens! Now, when your son or daughter asks to borrow the car, you can actually set Curfew Alerts and a Geo-Fence so no longer do you have to worry about your child taking the car somewhere outside your approval or later than you permit. You’ll be notified immediately if your permissions aren’t followed. With voice text messaging, you’ll know their hands are on the wheel, not the phone.

Rick Case is always on the cutting edge of new vehicles and will be happy to provide you more information. Rick Case Hyundai is also the only dealership where you’ll get a free 20-year, 200,000-mile warranty and 5 years of 24/7 roadside assistance with every new Hyundai purchase. Once you’re a part of the Rick Case family, use your Rick Case Rewards Club card for free car washes for life & discount gas! You can also check out our specials on new Hyundai cars in southern Florida and the best Certified Pre-Owned Hyundai cars and SUVs around Ft Lauderdale… but maybe the best special to help you get into the best connected car for you is the $500 Coupon right on the homepage!

Change your own gas mileage!

Friday, March 25, 2011

No matter which vehicle you drive, there are a few surefire ways to make even a gas-guzzler more fuel-friendly. Believe it or not, the impact can be so significant that it can be the same as if you bought a different model altogether! "Millions of dollars worth of gasoline is wasted every day by motorists, because simple and inexpensive vehicle maintenance is neglected," said Rich White, executive director of the Car Care Council. "Loose or missing gas caps, under-inflated tires, worn spark plugs and dirty air filters all contribute to poor fuel economy."

The Car Care Council recommends the following tips to make the most of your mileage:

• Check your gas cap – about 17% of all vehicles have gas caps that are loose, damaged or missing, and that accounts for 147 million gallons of gas that are literally vaporized each year
• Check your tire pressure – tires that are underinflated makes for a drive that’s the equivalent of having the parking brake on, which can take a mile or two per gallon away. That’s a big difference.
• Don’t ignore your spark plugs – there can be 4, 6 or 8, firing as many as 3 million times every 1,000 miles. Dirty spark plugs misfire, wasting fuel. Replace them regularly.
• Your car needs to breathe – a clogged air filter is a nice, rich mixture of bugs, dirt and dust, literally choking the airflow. Too much gas gets burned and the engine loses power. This is the point that pays you back – changing your air filter can improve your gas mileage up to 10%, dropping your actual gas cost by about 15 cents per gallon

And more than ever, idling is frowned upon and in many areas, illegal. It gets 0 miles per gallon and makes no sense; a car only needs to “warm up” for a minute or two.

If you’re looking for some hard facts about Hyundai mileage, check out Rick Case Hyundai’s Gas Calculator. Even check the competition to see the value at Rick Case Hyundai, then go even further to see the great service specials. The Rick Case Rewards program ensures that with each service, you’ll earn points that turn into discounts on future services, parts, accessories, purchases… not to mention free car washes for life and discount gas!

2011 Hyundai Elantra: Same price, all-new value

Thursday, March 17, 2011

In the cut-throat compact car segment in Canada and North America, the all-new 2011 Hyundai Elantra is about to take the title and challenge other segments. Its upgraded trim quality and features now include:

• Push-button start
• In-dash, touch-screen navigation system
• Rearview camera
• Bluetooth hands-free phone system
• iPod and USB inputs
• Automatic headlights
• Leather seating
…and that’s just in the base model. Opt for a GL or higher trim and get heated rear seats, power sunroof, 16-inch alloy wheels and fog lights, just to name a few bells and whistles.

What really sets the new 2011 Elantra apart from its predecessors is its “Fluidic Sculpture,” an effort by Hyundai to make the vehicle as aesthetically pleasing as it is functional. It’s a little longer and a little lower, with countless lines designed to come together beautifully. Don’t be fooled by the fluid lines; it has more interior room than ever, not to mention the “Nu” engine that provides better fuel economy – 18% to be exact. The “Nu” engine is a 1.8-liter that’s paired with your choice of a 6-speed manual or automatic transmission.

Yes, it’s tough too. Its rigid structure provides for a solid feel and impressive power for any car in its class, but that’s nothing new with the Elantra. Another value package that isn’t news is what you’ll get at Rick Case Hyundai… from the 20,000-mile, 20-year warranty to the 5 years of 24/7 roadside service, the Rick Case Rewards membership and the Hyundai Assurance Program, there simply isn’t a better value than a Hyundai from Rick Case. Don’t miss the $500 coupon on the homepage! Serious about quality on a budget? Cruise our certified pre-owned Hyundais for the best inventory from Ft. Lauderdale to Miami.
