3,500 Hyundais to Transport Olympic Athletes

Hyundai Hellas is supplying a fleet of 3,500 Hyundais to transport athletes, VIPs, officials and journalists attending the Olympic games.

As part of its sponsorship agreement with the Athens 2004 Organizing Committee, which Hyundai said is valued at $19.9 million, Hyundai will also offer free bus service to the public. Four traditional English double-decked open-top buses wrapped in Hyundai livery and with a live band on board will follow specific shuttle routes along Olympic roads and points of interest around Athens.

In addition, Hyundai Land, located in the Water Plaza near the Esplanada, will offer Olympic visitors a fun atmosphere in which to enjoy live musical entertainment, engage in inter-active games and learn more about Hyundai products.
