Hyundai has expanded the information available to buyers of its certified used cars in South Korea. In a November 2 announcement, the company introduced previous-owner safe-driving scores, official maintenance histories and additional electric-vehicle battery data.
The driving score draws on information from the Bluelink connected-car service and is available where the previous owner has consented to its use. The disclosure concerns vehicle-use characteristics, not the publication of the owner’s personal contact details.
Maintenance records cover checks and consumable replacements within the official service network. For EVs, the report adds voltage and temperature differences, alongside cumulative charging and discharging data, to the existing battery state-of-health information.
These records supplement mileage and accident information but do not replace a mechanical inspection. A driving score describes behavior over a particular period, rather than guaranteeing the condition of every component. The announcement concerns Hyundai’s Korean program; a corresponding rollout in Azerbaijan has not been announced.
