HYUNDAI TO EXHIBIT iLOAD AT COMMERCIAL VEHICLE SHOW IN BIRMINGHAM

16.03.2011 / Birmingham - Seoul - Cairo /

Hyundai will be showing two versions of the iLoad in Panel and Crew van format. Also making an appearance will be the first working Police converted version of the iLoad, kindly provided by Cambridgeshire Constabulary. This is in recognition of Hyundai Motor UK becoming a preferred supplier to the UK Police Authorities, whilst also demonstrating the versatility of the iLoad van.

Mark Baxter, Hyundai UK’s product manager commented: “Hyundai is committed to increasing the awareness of the iLoad and sees the CV show as an ideal opportunity to demonstrate the iLoad’s capabilities to the wider light commercial vehicle user audience.”

Now available with a Euro 5 engine, the iLoad offers a 10.4% reduction in CO2 emissions and an 8.4% improvement in fuel economy. The 2.5CRDi Classic Panel van starts at just £13,840 (basic retail) and to make the vehicle even more appealing, Hyundai is offering the ‘Trade and Upgrade’ scheme on iLoad. Similar to the Government Scrappage Scheme, ‘Trade and Upgrade’ allows owners of seven to 10 year old cars in Britain to get an allowance of between £1,500–£3,000 towards a brand new Hyundai car. For iLoad, consumers would save £2,300 on the list price when trading in their old van.

The iLoad is available from all Hyundai dealers as well as the newly appointed network of 25 commercial vehicle specialists in the UK.
