NHTSA Receives Petition for Importation of Nonconforming Hyundai Elantra Cars

Summary

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has accepted a petition from Hyundai, allowing 1992-1995 Hyundai Elantra passenger cars that do not meet all U.S. safety standards to be imported into the country, as they are substantially similar to compliant models and can be easily modified to meet the requirements.
