During the recent One Hyundai VIP Night event held at the Hotel Sofitel Philippine Plaza Manila, Hyundai Asia Resources, Inc. (Hari) forged a momentous partnership with one of the country’s fastest-growing financial institutions and credit-card issuers.

Together with EastWest Bank, Hari unveiled the Hyundai MasterCard, the first-ever distributor-based car loyalty program in the country.

“Offered through the One Hyundai Club, the Hyundai MasterCard entitles our customers the advantage to enjoy exclusive deals and premiums from both financial and automotive worlds, with its wide array of privileges that truly cater to the leisure, travel and lifestyle needs of affluent motorists,” explained Fe Perez-Agudo, president and CEO of Hari.

Agudo added that Hyundai MasterCard holders afford no less than a one-of-a-kind motoring experience through globally primed rewards and exclusive financial advantages that will set them apart from the ordinary.

Truly, the new Hyundai MasterCard is perfect for those who seek unique car-related perks, the most convenient financial schemes and banking services available.

Dubbed as the premium lifestyle motoring credit card, the Hyundai MasterCard was unveiled right after Hari’s successful campaign to bring its new Sonata, Hyundai’s globally successful mid-size sedan, closer to the premium market.

Under this campaign, customers who purchased the brand-new Sonata from March 9 to May 31 and had them financed through the EastWest Bank Auto Loan were provided with affordable terms that enabled them to easily own the luxury sedan.

Those who availed of EastWest Bank’s exclusive auto loan packages for the Hyundai Sonata also enjoyed free one-year comprehensive insurance with acts of God coverage, free three-year Land Transportation Office registration, free chattel mortgage fee and a free Hyundai Sonata specialty items.

The new 2.4-liter Sonata is certainly the right model to pair with this credit card as the car certainly shook up the world’s mid-size sedan market with its daring look.

Adopting Hyundai’s new “fluidic sculpture” design language, the new Sonata is most noticeable for its sloping coupe-like look that has previously only been seen on pricier European models.

The new Sonata’s Theta II gasoline engine is also one of the sedan’s main attraction as it was made more powerful and efficient than most of its competitors. And with all the safety and comfort features one would only expect from a premium sedan, the new Sonata is certainly an excellent deal.

The new Sonata is the embodiment of value that customers could be sure that years from now holders of the Hyundai MasterCard would only have the Sonata, the only car in their mind.
