Hyundai Parts are Geared for Safety

Anthony Fontanelle
April 16, 2008

Safety is one of the top priorities of any automobile company. Hyundai Motor Company, for example, manufactures its cars and sport utility vehicles, among others, with efficient Hyundai parts that promote proper operation all the time. This Korean car company, however, does not only settle for the usual safety Hyundai parts like air bags or seat belts as it is also keen in supplementing these staple safety components with high-end car technologies to further keep its users well protected on or off-road scenarios.

In Korean, Hyundai means modern. The automaker lives up to its name as it integrates its quality-made Hyundai parts with the state-of-the-art technologies available in the industry today. This strategic combination makes a Hyundai model a lot safer. For starters, the company installs the anti-lock braking system or ABS in its vehicles. With this technology intact, slowing down or stopping is made easier. It can help lower the rate of collisions as it allows the Hyundai vehicle to achieve full stop in a rather short distance and time. Moreover, ABS allows the driver to properly maneuver the car even in periods of rain or snow as the system prevents wheels from locking on slippery roads by controlling the brake fluid pressure. In addition to that, the brake assist system or BAS also improves the vehicle’s braking power. Similar to ABS, BAS makes the braking distance and time shorter. The electronic brake force distribution or EBD, on the other hand, is the system in Hyundai models that look after the proper allocation of stopping power between the front and rear wheels. The brakes efficiently adjust to the changes in the vehicle’s weight.

Hyundai vehicles are not only safe on road as these are also equipped with tough Hyundai parts that make these efficient on inconsistent terrains. Traction control system or TCS is installed by the automaker in its sport utility vehicles. This technology improves the capability of the SUV to speed up on steep slopes. Moreover, a vehicle from a full stop can efficiently climb uphill roads or steep slopes as the TCS prevents its wheels from slipping. Completing a Hyundai SUV’s off-road safety is ESP. This technology improves torque and braking on rough and rocky roads.

To make a safer car is the aim of Hyundai Motor Company. The automaker is without a doubt on the right track in fulfilling its goal especially with these kinds of Hyundai parts installed in its vehicles.
