Hyundai Capital America Partners With AutoGravity
IRVINE, Calif. — Hyundai Capital America, which does business as Hyundai Motor Finance, Kia Motors Finance, and Genesis Finance, has joined the AutoGravity car-shopping and financing platform.
Beginning in the state of California, financing through Hyundai Capital America is now accessible to AutoGravity users searching for financing for a Hyundai, Kia or Genesis. Since the platform's launch in the summer of 2016, more than 700,000 consumers have downloaded the AutoGravity app.
“With the growing number of consumers embracing AutoGravity, as well as the seamless integration of AutoGravity with dealer process, we felt that this was the perfect opportunity to test the platform,” said Hyundai Capital President and CEO Ross Williams.
AutoGravity uses proprietary technology to connect car shoppers, lenders and dealers through a digital marketplace. The firm collaborates with leading banks and captive finance sources like Hyundai Capital America to empower its users with convenience, transparency and choice while sending ready-to-buy customers to the dealership.
“AutoGravity brings the car financing experience into the Digital Age, where today’s consumer wants to find it: in the palm of their hand,” said AutoGravity founder and CEO Andreas Hinrichs. “With the addition of Hyundai Capital America, we can offer our users even more finance choices, making that drive off the dealership lot even more rewarding.”
