Hyundai 3D Object Detection Software

A Worthwhile Partnership

Hyundai and IonQ previously worked together doing battery research for electric vehicles and have expanded their partnership to include this new Hyundai 3D object detection software. This software will revolutionize automated driving by allowing Hyundai models to sense and detect road signs, obstacles, and other road signals and conditions. According to a press release from Hyundai Media Center in April of 2022, this research is well underway with over 40 different types of road signs currently able to be detected by the sensors.* As experiments continue, Hyundai and IonQ will begin testing out simulations of real-world scenarios with pedestrians and cyclists to test the true power of this technology and continue to improve the artificial intelligence. Preston Hyundai’s team of experts is super excited to experience the next-generation of driving provided by Hyundai’s 3D object detection software.

To Buy Or To Lease?

So, you’re ready to transition to a vehicle that better fits your lifestyle but are debating whether to buy or lease? There are several factors to consider when purchasing and leasing a car in Maryland, and the finance experts at Preston Hyundai have some insights that may help you make a decision. Review the pros and cons we’ve provided, and see which route best fulfills your needs in a vehicle. Then, contact us with any questions, and we’ll provide you with special Frog Incentives for the ultimate dealership experience.

Financing a Hyundai

Buying or financing a car allows you to own your vehicle. If you choose to purchase your next vehicle, you are responsible for any repair costs once your warranty expires. The longer you possess your vehicle, the more it depreciates in value, but once it’s paid off, you end up paying less for the car than you would a lease. There are many advantages to buying a car, such as:

  • The long-term cost is less than leasing.
  • You can modify the car as much as you want.
  • You have more flexibility because you hold the title.
  • No excess mileage penalty.
  • Applying it toward a trade-in for your next purchase.

Leasing a Hyundai

When leasing a car in Maryland, there are several things to consider, such as driving habits, preferences, price, and term length. You’ll want to ensure your Hyundai remains in mint condition and within the chosen mileage limitations throughout the lease term to save yourself from costly fees at lease end. You will not own the car during a lease, so you won’t have the option to personalize it as you wish. On the bright side, there are many benefits to leasing a car in Maryland, such as:

  • Often having a lower monthly payment.
  • Staying current with the latest technology and features.
  • Choosing your term length (typically 1-3 years).
  • OEM warranty is included throughout your lease.
  • Fewer maintenance costs.

Shop Hyundai Hybrid & Electric Vehicles

what is the difference between a hybrid car and an electric car

Hybrid Or Electric?

Both hybrid and electric vehicles are highly efficient, but how they are powered differs slightly. Preston Hyundai is happy to share what the difference is between a hybrid car and an electric car, and showcase a few of our vehicles engineered with these powertrains. Our inventory has a considerable amount of each in stock, so you can experience firsthand what the difference is between a hybrid car and an electric car. Let’s first take a look at both of these powertrain technologies.

Preston for Lifenew Hyundai hybrids and electric

Hybrid Vehicles

Hybrid vehicles are fueled 100% by gasoline, but also have an electric motor to help with acceleration and regenerative braking. Both systems work together, and the battery acts as a generator. For example, whenever you press the brake, that energy is regenerated and stored in the battery to use for your next acceleration. Our lineup of Hyundai hybrid models are copious, from the sporty Hyundai Elantra Hybrid, the Hyundai IONIQ Hybrid hatchback, and spacious Hyundai Sonata Hybrid sedan to the Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid and Hyundai Tucson Hybrid SUVs. In addition, there are several plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEV) that essentially reverse the roles, putting electric energy as the priority and gasoline secondary.

Electric Vehicles

Electric vehicles (EV) have a large battery and a powerful electric motor that delivers enough performance and range, without the need to stop for gasoline. Another fact regarding what is the difference between a hybrid car and an electric car is that EVs produce zero tailpipe emissions. Charging is supported by Electrify America, providing a network of DC fast-charging stations across the nation. Check out the all-new Hyundai Kona Electric* SUV for an EPA-estimated range of 258 miles⁠ when you want a fun and versatile vehicle. Or explore the Hyundai IONIQ Electric** hatchback for 170 miles of EPA-estimated range.
