The Cash for Clunkers program is having a positive impact across all sectors of the industry. For example, Hyundai Motor Manufacturing Alabama is now increasing production by returning to a five-day workweek in July after being on a shortened workweek since mid-October.

“We hope the Senate will support the additional $2 billion the House has approved,” Zuchowski added.  “The program is good for the environment, cuts oil dependency, saves consumers money and is good for the economy – and our dealers have a great lineup of vehicles perfect for customers looking for safe and energy-efficient transportation.”

The North American Car of the Year Hyundai Genesis continued its strong sales performance, with sales more than tripling from last year, up 10 percent from a strong performance in June. In July, J.D. Power and Associates presented Genesis with two more major awards: Most Appealing Mid-Size Premium Car in the 2009 Automotive Performance, Execution and Layout (APEAL) Study, and the highest ranked 2009 all-new or redesigned vehicle in the inaugural Vehicle Launch Index (VLI).
