Hyundai Parts

Easily the most successful Korean car manufacturer, Hyundai has carved a path to success by providing incredible affordability in markets where no one else dared to. With such a high volume of cars sold, parts are abundant across many of Hyundai’s vehicles, and Spares Box is proud to be Australia’s premier online store for Hyundai parts and spares, catering for their entire vehicle range. Whether you have an older excel, a Tucson 4x4, a Santa Fe or a modern Veloster, you’re bound to find the parts for you.

Collaborative Creations

What many people don’t know is that Hyundai’s story actually starts with the 1968 release of the Ford Cortina, a car that was released in cooperation with the American giant to great success. A few years later, Hyundai released the first car of their own, the Mitsubishi-powered Pony, which was also the first production vehicle ever to come out of Korea. Hyundai capitalised on it’s initial success by commencing almost immediate export of the Pony to Canada, South America and certain areas of Central Europe. 

Paving the Way for Korea

After producing a million cars and slowly building success in foreign markets throughout the 70s and early 80s, Hyundai properly dived into the Global market in 1986. Now possessing the technology and resources needed to make their own cars independently, they released huge amounts of the incredibly successful Excel and Sonata models to an American market hungry for value-oriented cars. By 1990, Hyundai had made over four million vehicles in total and the the first car to run an entirely Hyundai-manufactured powertrain was introduced in 1993.

However, as concerns about the quality and reliability of these incredibly cheap cars began to become apparent, Hyundai’s sales figures and reputation plummeted. Following an intervention by the company’s CEO, the brand revitalised both its image and its production quality in the late 90s, producing reliable cars at a great price, catering for millions of every day drivers going into the new millennium.

A Modern Image for a Modern World 

Since the turn of the century, Hyundai vehicles, while not exactly glamourising the car scene, have earned themselves an outstanding reputation by regularly winning awards for production quality and value. The Santa Fe, Elantra and Tucson have all won awards in their respective fields, and Hyundai have also earned a reputation for an incredible commitment to the safety of their drivers. In 2008, Hyundai continued their revamp with the launch of their Genesis brand, specialising of luxury executive sedans designed to rival the expensive European market. This, along with the launch of vehicles like the Veloster and the i30, has helped launch Hyundai into the modern age while maintaining the same accessibility it always has.

Being some of the reliable and cheapest cars on the market to both purchase and ensure, Hyundai vehicles have gained incredible success in the Australian market. They’re the 2nd highest selling vehicle manufacturer that doesn’t currently have a plant in Australia, and truly a global force in car making. This means that spare parts for Hyundais are always in hot demand, and thankfully Spares Box is here as Australias largest premier retailer of Hyundai Parts and accessories. We carry value oriented parts and spares from some of the world’s leading brands to get your Hyundai on the road faster, whether it be a daily runabout like an Elantra or an Excel, the family Sonata or Santa Fe, a high performance Veloster or a funky i30.
