Hyundai Motor America's One-Of-A-Kind Program Takes Women Out of the Office
and Onto the Driving Course for a Life-Saving Safety Seminar What: Hyundai Motor America (HMA) has harnessed the experience of Lyn St. James, the only woman to be named Indy 500 Rookie of the Year, and other top female drivers to bring this one-of-a-kind driving seminar to women. Not for the faint of heart, this class will put women behind the wheel of Hyundai's XG350 and on specially designed driving courses to participate in exercises that will teach life-saving driving techniques, including braking and steering skills. When: Tuesday, December 9, 2003 Session One -- 8:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. Session Two -- 12:30 p.m. - 4:30 p.m. Lunch served from 11:30 a.m. - 1:30 p.m. Why: Hyundai Motor America understands the influence of the female consumer. Statistics show that women influence more than 80-85 percent of all vehicle purchases and account for more than 50 percent of car buyers. Through its Power of the Purse program -- automotive empowerment workshops designed to teach women how to make more informed decisions about car buying and servicing -- HMA has shown its dedication to helping women during the car buying process. With this seminar, Hyundai takes its commitment to women one step further by empowering them on the road. Who: Hyundai executives will be joined by Indy 500 veteran, Lyn St. James, and other professional female drivers who will conduct the safety courses. In addition, business leaders from the healthcare, publishing and automotive industries will participate.
