Best Hyundai Models for Road Trips Across the Florida Panhandle

Long daylight hours coupled with vacations from school and work encourage road trips across the Florida panhandle and beyond. At Werner Hyundai in Tallahassee, we carry a large inventory of the following models that make these journeys a joy. Find out why you should use Hyundai for long drives in Florida by calling us for a test drive.

Hyundai Palisade: Road trips mean sharing good times with family and friends, and the Hyundai Palisade motivates up to eight people to travel together on three generous rows. You don’t have to shout or turn your head to talk to anybody in the second and third rows because with Passenger Talk, you can talk to anybody in the second and third rows through the Palisade Audio system. 

Hyundai Venue: When you want to get away on your own, the Hyundai Venue is the subcompact to drive with its park-anywhere size and up to an EPA-estimated 33 miles per gallon on the highway and 29 city MPG from its 1.6-liter Dual Port Injection 4-cylinder and available Smartstream® Intelligent Variable Transmission. Head for northern cold climes since the available Drive Model Select lets you choose Snow Mode that boosts traction control for negotiating bad weather.

Stay in touch with wireless connections to the compatible Apple CarPlay® or Android Auto™ for phone calls, text messaging, and app functions without having to stop by the side of the road. The 8-inch color touchscreen shows you the way with available built-in navigation.

Hyundai Elantra Hybrid: In the Hyundai Elantra Hybrid, you’ll get to your destination sooner because you won’t be stopping so often for gas when the fuel economy achieves up to 58 highway MPG and 51 MPG in the city. Helping to boost performance is regenerative braking, which converts energy normally lost when stopping into electric energy that recharges the battery. You gain extra power without having to plug into an outlet.

For your convenience, the Hyundai Digital Key 2 Touch app duplicates many key fob functions, such as starting the vehicle and unlocking doors. You can text your available Digital Key to other drivers, giving them access to your sedan. Another high-tech advance consists of the two hi-res 10.25-inch screens, one for infotainment and navigation, and the other for displaying a fully digital instrument cluster.

Staying Safe

One thing that these and other Hyundai models share is a commitment to safety that is carried out by Hyundai SmartSense, an Advanced Driver Assistance System that automates external sensing with radars, cameras, and sensors. Forward Collision Avoidance Assist, for example, signals that you’re about to hit the vehicle, cyclist, or pedestrian in front of you, and can apply braking to prevent a collision.

You won’t have to worry about anything going wrong on your road trip car Hyundai when you get five years and unlimited miles of 24-hour roadside assistance that includes towing, trip interruption compensation, and services for a flat tire, dead battery, or running out of gas. Beyond that, you get five years or 60,000 miles of New Vehicle Limited Warranty and 10 years or 100,000 miles of Powertrain Limited Warranty.
