Hyundai Steps up to the Plate for Mets Fans

[Hyundai NEWS]

The New York Mets will open the 2013 baseball season on April 1, but players like David Wright and Johan Santana — and Hyundai — are all deep into spring training right now. But while the first two are working on hitting and pitching, the automaker is putting the final touches on a new partnership to sponsor the Hyundai Club at the Mets’ Citi Field.
Members will have access to a premium field-level seating area behind home plate that offers 660 of the best places in New York to watch a ballgame. Also, along with dugout-to-dugout seating, there will be a premium buffet of carved meats, pasta and unlimited non-alcoholic beverages, as well more typical ballpark fare like peanuts and popcorn.
“Citi Field provides a great venue to showcase an award-winning Hyundai line-up that continues to get even stronger,” said Ken Bloech, general manager for Hyundai Motor America’s Eastern Region. “Over the course of the season, we look forward to having Mets’ fans enjoy games from the comfort of the Hyundai Club. We’ll also be displaying a range of vehicles from an all-new, three-row Santa Fe that’s perfect for families to a redesigned Equus sedan that delivers a higher level of refinement for the luxury segment.”
Just remember, although the redesigned Equus is still a work in progress, the 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe is in the ballgame now, with an MSRP that starts at $24,450 and includes a Best Cars for the Money Award from U.S. News & World Reports.
“We are proud to grow our relationship with Hyundai to including branding rights for one of the premiere seating locations at Citi Field,” added Dave Howard, executive vice president of Business Operations for the baseball team. “Hyundai is the latest partner to join us for what will be an exciting all-star season for Mets fans.”
