Cabot Trail: Adventure-Ready with the Hyundai Kona or Tucson
One of the most iconic drives in Canada, the Cabot Trail winds its way through Cape Breton Highlands National Park, offering jaw-dropping ocean views, dramatic cliffs, and cozy villages. This is where the nimble and adventurous Hyundai Kona shines.

South Shore Lighthouse Route: Fuel Efficiency Meets Fun in the Elantra or Sonata
For those seeking a charming coastal experience filled with lighthouses, quaint seaside towns, and sunny beach stops, the Lighthouse Route from Halifax to Yarmouth is a must. Think Peggy’s Cove, Mahone Bay, and Lunenburg. The Hyundai Elantra or Sonata make the ideal travel companions here. Both are impressively fuel-efficient, which means fewer stops at the pump and more time exploring. Plus, their comfortable interiors and smooth rides make them great for weekend getaways or day trips.

If you love outdoor adventure, the Bay of Fundy Drive, famous for the world’s highest tides, is a trip you’ll never forget. This route is perfect for travellers who plan on packing hiking gear or paddleboards. The Hyundai IONIQ 5, with its generous cargo space and long-range electric power, makes a smart and eco-friendly choice. With access to real-time charging station locations via Hyundai’s Bluelink® app, range anxiety stays off your itinerary. For those who prefer a hybrid, the Tucson Hybrid offers great mileage and even more space for your trail-ready equipment.
