Hyundai will pay for your gas for one year

You must have already seen the Hyundai Assurance ads on TV that promise to take back your Hyundai for up to a year after purchase should you lose your job. Other manufacturers started copying Hyundai, a company that is unrivaled in taking advantage of its local rivals' woes through well-times incentives backing up solid products. Well, Hyundai itself has now copied another car company, namely Chrysler, by introducing the Hyundai Assurance Gas Lock program.

The Korean maker, who already offers the best warranty in the US at 10 years/100,000 miles, guarantees you a year's worth of regular, mid-grade or premium gasoline for $1.49, $1.64 or $1.79 per gallon, respectively. As a reference, the national average for regular gasoline is currently $2.64 per gallon. This means that the Hyundai program could actually have some value, whereas the Chrysler offering was set at $2.99

Gas Lock is available on all new Hyundais except the Genesis sedan, Genesis Coupe, and Accent GS.
