CHICAGO and FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif., July 21 -- Cars.com and Hyundai Motor America today announced that Hyundai Motor America will supply a live feed to Cars.com of all certified pre-owned Hyundai automobiles currently available at more than 790 Hyundai retailers nationwide.

Hyundai CPO vehicles will display when a shopper conducts a vehicle search that includes either used or certified options. Hyundai will also have CPO banner ads appearing throughout the site to promote the quality of the Hyundai Motor America CPO program.
"Hyundai's aggressive promotion of its dealers' certified inventory positions the stores to drive business across their entire sales channel - not just certified but also new and used," said Michael Page, vice president of advertising products at Cars.com. "By partnering with Cars.com, Hyundai secures additional prominence for its dealers."
Certified Hyundai vehicles will be distinguished by a manufacturer-certified logo to help in-market shoppers identify them on search results pages.

Every CPO Hyundai must be less than five model years old, have fewer than 60,000 miles and pass a rigorous 150-point inspection. All CPO Hyundais include the balance of the America's Best Warranty(TM), which provides 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain protection to the original owner. In addition, all Hyundai CPO vehicles include roadside assistance, as well as rental car, towing and travel breakdown coverage in case of an emergency.
"Thanks to our impressive line-up of vehicles and a CPO program recognized as one of the industry's best, Hyundai has seen impressive growth in the CPO sector in 2010, with sales for the first quarter of the year up 32 percent over 2009," said Dave Zuchowski, vice president of sales at Hyundai Motor America.
