Update 7/13 “Mid-July Update”:
-
Thanks to everyone that reached out. I’ve been busy responding directly to text messages. If you need assistance, please text me at 551-204-8712. I have not been as active on the forum as the requests for service have been coming in, but I am making every effort at diligently responding to your messages. Please text again if you have not received a response, but I do believe I’ve gotten back to most, if not all outstanding requests. The new process seems better than the old and I look forward to serving everyone with reliability and quality service

The Kona EV SEL waitlist for NJ is officially 22 cars deep, so I am marking the SEL model as OUT OF STOCK
-
Regarding inventory: Hyundai is absolutely impacted by chip shortages. I believe, like other automakers, cars are partially/mostly built, waiting on key chips to complete production. When this blows over, I expect boatloads of cars to start coming. Prices won’t correct overnight, but, as always, I will be a downward force in the market. My large partner dealer network and inventory search system is still your best bet in finding the exact Hyundai trim/color/model you’re looking for, if you can’t find what you want in stock. There is some fluctuation in the amount of markup each dealer has, but, by popular demand, I am posting the most expensive options on my page.
-
Regarding pricing: I hear everyone that is dissatisfied that most cars are marked up above MSRP. You’ve likely seen the photos floating around here of empty car lots, so it stands to reason that the same reasons why you might get a discount below MSRP on a car, are the reasons why you may pay over MSRP on a car. I don’t make the prices up, and am actively pressuring markups down everywhere I can. The dealers have way less cars to sell, so they’re going to need to make a multiple of what they used to make on each one.

Kona EV Limited/Ultimate got about $20/mo more expensive due to market conditions. Santa Fes (most trims) got about $20/month cheaper! Ioniq Hybrids are a decent deal now if you need a car with low cost of ownership and an engine. The Kona EVs are still thousands cheaper than what was available in last year’s iteration of CHARGE UP. I still have access to plenty of inventory of the EVs, and still totally expect the inventory to dry up before CHARGE UP funds are depleted.

Remember, I need your help to lower my prices. If your knee-jerk reaction is that my prices are too high, please go ahead and stop in at your local Hyundai dealer, and use the Share a Deal section to post proof of better deals. I actively utilize this information to bring my listed prices down, which benefits the entire community. I insist on a flat-rate model for my service, whether dealers are losing or making thousands on your deal, and I am truly impartial to the price you pay for your new Hyundai lease.
Update 7/20: I’ve listed lower prices (~$30/mo less) on EVs for NY customers. Sonata and Elantra (gas) prices have also gone down. The Kona EV Ultimate and Ioniq EV SE have gotten more expensive in NJ due to market demand, but I am hard at work on pressuring everything to come down as soon as inventory builds back up. Prices updated in 1st post.
