No. 3562012-05-16668 hit

1) Team Hyundai

Hyundai is proud to present five top football players as brand ambassadors for the UEFA EURO 2012™: Iker Casillas (Spain), Lukas Podolski (Germany), Giuseppe Rossi (Italy), Karim Benzema (France) and Daniel Sturridge (England).

The five ambassadors will be rivals on the field during EURO 2012, but they are united by their passion for football. Their determination and talent sets them apart on the field, and every Team Hyundai player has the potential to be a game changer during this year's tournament.

The Team Hyundai launching event, held in Frankfurt on March 15, 2012, marked the start of their activities. Team Hyundai will be the center of Hyundai's EURO 2012 marketing campaign, with their use in TV commercials, out-of-home advertising, print advertising and various on- and off-line activities.

2) Make a Pledge

Hyundai is serious about supporting people to realize their ambitions to become game-changers of the future.

Football fans and followers of Hyundai are invited to participate in the project, reflecting our commitment to always engage in a way that reflects the spirit of the game – through openness and inclusion.

By entering the dedicated application on Hyundai's global Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/Hyundaiworldwide), football fans are encouraged to make their pledge.

For each pledge, Hyundai will donate €1, and Hyundai's total donation of €250,000 will be made to support the game-changers of the future.

3) EURO Test Drive

Before and during the EURO 2012, Hyundai's local distributors are open for test drives of Hyundai's wide range of models. Customers can test-drive Hyundai's exciting new-generation i30, a car designed in Europe for Europeans. About 500 match tickets and 120 hospitality packages for the EURO 2012 tournament will be handed out to those who participate in this program. Customers can enhance their tournament experience by writing messages on large Team Hyundai uniforms.

4) Hyundai Fan Park

Football fans of the world are invited to visit Hyundai Fan Parks where they can cheer on their team with friends and family while watching the matches live on big screens. In addition, they can enjoy a wide range of activities, including a skills competition, the Digital Goodwill Ball, 3D graffiti and get a look at the latest Hyundai cars.
