Harnessing the pure value of team spirit and togetherness created by the universal love of football, Hyundai Motor, with and through FIFA, is engaging with people all over the world towards one big goal. Filipinos have the opportunity to participate by test driving the New Creta. Through this, customers not only get a chance to win an all-expense paid trip to Qatar to witness the FIFA World Cup™in action but also experience the innovative subcompact crossover SUV being offered by the brand in the local market.

FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 Test Drive Promo

In order to qualify for the promo, participants must register afterward at the brand’s official online registration page. Proof of completion with the vehicle will be required to be uploaded on the said page. Once completed, a digital coupon that serves as the raffle entry shall be sent within 24 hours from HMPH through the registered email address. Only one raffle entry per individual will be granted regardless of the number of test drives.

The deadline for submissions is on 30 September 2022 with the drawing of two (02) winners taking place on 03 October 2022. Those selected will be allowed to fly with one (01) companion and enjoy two (02) tickets to the Category 1 stage of the FIFA World Cup Tournament (4 matches), a Deluxe Room for two (02) at a five-star hotel in Doha for four (04) days, and a Qatar City tour. A Welcome Lunch, hosted by Hyundai Motor Company, bringing together around 200 supporters around the globe will also be part of the itinerary, slated to take place between 20 November 2022 to 02 December 2022.  

Sustainable Mobility for the FIFA World Cup

It was in 1999 when Hyundai Motor first joined forces with FIFA and has since then become its automotive provider and sponsor. This time, the brand is taking a step further to position itself as a sustainability partner by deploying eco-friendly vehicles to this year’s FIFA World Cup, a first in the history of the event. The fleet, which will include the IONIQ 5 and Santa Fe Hybrid and Elec City Bus, is going to be used to transport national team players, VIPs and event officials. Moreover, to expand its reach and spread the cause, Hyundai Motor is also pledging 1% of its sponsorship fee to Common Goal, the world’s leading social movement in football.

A group of ambassadors, “Team Century,” was formed by the brand in amplification of the initiative. Led by former England national team player Steven Gerrard, together with K-pop supergroup BTS, Afghan refugee soccer player and Danish UNESCO ambassador Nadia Nadim, American fashion designer Jeremy Scott, contemporary Italian artist Lorenzo Quinn, visual storyteller Nicky Woo, South Korean football icon Jisung Park, former Oman national team goalkeeper Ali Al-Habsi and Boston Dynamics’ Spot robot.

The New Hyundai Creta

The newest addition to the product lineup of Hyundai Motor is a sub-compact crossover SUV that is efficient yet fun, stylish but safe and easy to drive. Innovative in every aspect from design to convenience features.

In the front, the New Creta flaunts a bold ‘Parametric Jewel’ grille with integrated daytime running lights (DRL) and a unique headlamp architecture. The sidelines express a more muscular and agile body shape. Its long hood, connected black A pillar, wide C pillar, straight roof line, and deep wheel-arch give a wider and stable stance completing the muscular look. Behind, the individual lamps match the equally daring front. Paired with the silver skid plate are signature “boomerang” shaped LED rear lamps that add to the unique identity of the vehicle. On the inside, refined lines on the side panels continued onto the dashboard forming a clean, symmetrical T-shaped layout. Access panels, buttons, and compartments are neatly organized and kept uncluttered to lessen visual driving obtrusions.

Under the hood is a 1.5-liter SmartStream engine which allows optimal airflow control, more effective combustion, better heat and friction control, and reduced exhaust. The New Creta uses an Intelligent Variant Transmission (iVT), Hyundai Motor’s flagship propriety technology, that regulates vehicle speed more cleverly than the “step-by-step” of an automatic gearbox. These enable an overall improved fuel economy while maintaining high power and torque output. It also comes with an Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) system complemented by Electronic Stability Control (ESC) and Hill Start Assist Control (HAC).

Leading the segment in terms of driver safety, the brand’s suite of intelligent cameras and ultrasonic sensors called Hyundai Smartsense is standard for the New Creta. This comprises functions such as Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist, Lane Keeping Assist, Lane Following Assist, Blind Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist, Reverse Parking Distance Warning, and Rear-View Monitor. For added comfort and functionality, there is also a 10.25-inch TFT LCD cluster that has multi-lingual settings and user-friendly information menus. This is accompanied by an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment display compatible with both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as well as a fast wireless charger for hands-free connectivity.

The model is available in four (04) colors which are Creamy White, Magnetic Silver Metallic, Dragon Red Pearl, and Midnight Black Pearl. It has three (03) variants starting with the 1.5 GL 6MT, 1.5 GL CVT, and 1.5 GLS CVT. The latter comes with a black roof for a distinct two-tone styling.
