MIAMI, FL — 31 de octubre de 2024 — (NOTICIAS NEWSWIRE) — Hyundai Motor Company y Toyota Motor Corporation se han unido con éxito para celebrar el primer Festival “Hyundai N x TOYOTA GAZOO Racing” en la pista de carreras Yongin Speedway en Corea.

Hyundai N y TOYOTA GAZOO Racing, ambos competidores en el World Rally Championship (WRC), se unieron en este evento a fin de mostrar la producción de vehículos de alto desempeño y los autos de carreras de Hyundai y Toyota.

El evento, cuyas entradas se agotaron, destacó su compromiso compartido de impulsar la cultura de los deportes de motor y mejorar la participación de los clientes en Corea del Sur.

El presidente ejecutivo de Hyundai Motor Group, Euisun Chung, y el presidente de Toyota Motor Corporation, Akio Toyoda, participaron activamente en el evento. Chung se unió a Toyoda conduciendo un Yaris WRC, llevando a cabo la intensa conducción característica de Morizo, con “donuts” o desplazamientos en círculo incluidos, en medio de un estruendoso aplauso por parte de los espectadores.

Tras la carrera, los dos hombres subieron juntos al escenario, dieron las gracias a los aficionados cercanos, estrecharon sus manos y compartieron sus pensamientos con todos.  

“Con nuestra marca N de alto desempeño, tenemos el compromiso de aportar emociones y satisfacción a todos los entusiastas de los automóviles.

Seguiremos promoviendo los deportes de motor junto con Toyota, de manera tal que más personas puedan disfrutar las emociones que produce el conducir un vehículo”, dijo Euisun Chung, director ejecutivo de Hyundai Motor Group.

“Cuando me entrevisté con el presidente Akio Toyoda a comienzos de este año, descubrimos nuestra mutua pasión por las carreras, y me encantó que pudiéramos celebrar este evento.

El presidente Toyoda es alguien en la industria automotriz a quien respeto profundamente, y es un honor estar hoy aquí junto a él”, agregó.

El presidente de Toyota, Akio Toyoda comenzó sus palabras con un cálido "İSaranghaeyo!" (que significa "I love you" en coreano) y continuó diciendo: "Más temprano en el año tuve el placer de reunirme con el presidente ejecutivo Chung en Japón, lugar donde esta maravillosa idea cobró forma.

Y aquí estamos, apenas 10 meses después, ¡haciendo que este increíble evento sea una realidad! Me gustaría expresar mi más profunda gratitud a todos los que ayudaron a que este evento fuera posible. Juntos, Toyota y Hyundai han unido sus manos para crear una sociedad mejor y darle forma a la movilidad del futuro”.

Con posterioridad a las carreras de los dos ejecutivos en la exhibición, la marca N de Hyundai deleitó a los aficionados del dinámico espectáculo con competencias de sus vehículos i20 N Rally 1 Hybrid, dos vehículos de competencias i20 N Rally 2 para los clientes de los deportes de motor, la línea N de alto desempeño – incluidos el IONIQ 5 N y el Elantra N – y el IONIQ 5 N Drift Spec.

Entre los conductores del N de Hyundai en la exhibición estaban Thierry Neuville, quien encabeza actualmente el campeonato de conductores del WRC 2024; y Dani Sordo, Andreas Mikkelsen, y Mikel Azcona, el campeón de la 2022 World Touring Car Cup.

Toyota demostró su línea de alto desempeño con dinámicas carreras que contaban con los vehículos de Toyota GR YARIS Rally 1 HYBRID, GR Yaris Rally 2, GR Supra y GR86.

Entre los conductores figuraban Takamoto Katsuta, el actual conductor de Toyota en el WRC; Jari-Matti Latvala, el principal en el equipo TOYOTA GAZOO Racing World Rally; y Norihiko Katsuta, nueve veces campeón del Japanese Rally y padre de Takamoto Katsuta.

El festival incluyó toda una variedad de programas de participación que les proporcionaron a los clientes la oportunidad de una experiencia de primera mano, incluido un evento de un día en la pista de carreras que incluyó a 30 propietarios del modelo N de Hyundai y 30 dueños de vehículos TOYOTA GR conduciendo sus propios vehículos de alto desempeño, en el circuito de carreras Yongin Speedway.

Esto les permitió a todos ellos experimentar directamente el desempeño de sus vehículos en un circuito de nivel profesional.

Otros programas de participación fueron el “WRC Taxi”, en el que los clientes tuvieron la oportunidad de desplazarse en un vehículo WRC y ser testigos de impresionantes maniobras al estilo de las competencias, así como el “WRC Circuit Taxi en el que conductores de ambas compañías – incluido el propio maestro “Morizo”– llevaron a los pasajeros por un recorrido a alta velocidad por la pista, mostrándoles así todas las capacidades de los vehículos WRC de cada marca.

El evento también contó con una “Competencia Gymkhana”, en el que los conductores profesionales del N de Hyundai y del TOYOTA GAZOO Racing se unieron a los clientes en una carrera con los vehículos Avante N de Hyundai y el GR86 de Toyota.

Adicionalmente, el sitio llamado “Show & Shine” en el espacio del evento mostró a los participantes vehículos personalizados, celebrando la cultura de la afinación (tuning) desplegada por ambas marcas.

El evento culminó con un desfile triunfal (“Parade Lap”) que contó con 66 vehículos N de Hyundai y de TOYOTA GAZOO Racing, conducidos por clientes.

El presidente ejecutivo Chung y el presidente Toyoda encabezaron este desfile. Hyundai Motor y Toyota Motor Corporation también mostraron sus respectivos vehículos de próxima generación y alto desempeño en los pabellones de exhibición de sus marcas durante el evento.

En el pabellón del N de Hyundai, la compañía mostró dos “Laboratorios rodantes” (Rolling Labs”): el RN24, un nuevo vehículo de pruebas que representa la nueva visión de alto desempeño del N de Hyundai, y el N Vision 74, un híbrido de celdas de hidrógeno que subraya el compromiso de Hyundai Motor con la innovación del hidrógeno.

El IONIQ 5 N TA Spec que conquistó el Pikes Peak y el favorito de los aficionados, el Elantra N, también fueron exhibidos allí.

En el pabellón de Toyota, fueron exhibidos varios modelos innovadores. Entre ellos figuraban el vehículo concepto ORC ROOKIE GR Corolla H2, y el concepto AE86 H2 – un vehículo movido por un motor de combustión interna de hidrógeno que se basa en el modelo Toyota Sprinter Trueno. Junto a estos, vehículos concepto de la línea de alto desempeño, incluyendo el GR Supra y el GR86, también fueron exhibidos.

Otras atracciones incluían la “WRC Game Zone”, en la que los asistentes pudieron conducir de manera virtual vehículos N de Hyundai y de TOYOTA GAZOO Racing, mediante un simulador de carreras.

Para completar la oferta de atracciones, el “Racing Car Service Park”, en el que los asistentes al festival pudieron ver cómo los vehículos de carreras recibían mantenimiento en preparación para eventos, tal como ocurre en una competencia WRC.  

En el marco del evento, Hyundai Motor y Toyota Motor Corporation dieron a conocer que donarían todas las ganancias del festival a la Korea Automobile Racing Association (KARA) para contribuir así al desarrollo de la cultura doméstica del automovilismo y a la expansión de los deportes de motor.

El “Hyundai N x TOYOTA GAZOO Racing Festival” es el más reciente esfuerzo en una larga lista de iniciativas por parte de Hyundai Motor para desarrollar la cultura de los deportes de motor en Corea del Sur.

Durante los más de 20 años anteriores, Hyundai ha celebrado el “Hyundai Click Speed Festival” (2003-2010), el “Korea Speed Festival” (2011-2018), y el “Hyundai N Festival (2019-actualidad).

Además, desde que fuera anunciado su retorno a la competencia en el WRC en 2012, Hyundai Motor ha participado en numerosos eventos de deportes de motor, obteniendo así experiencia y desarrollando innovadoras tecnologías, tales como la suspensión y los sistemas de frenado para vehículos de alto desempeño.

En el año 2015, la compañía lanzó su marca de alto desempeño, Hyundai N, y dio a conocer vehículos de alto desempeño equipados con tecnologías basadas en los deportes de motor.

Los modelos Hyundai N siguen proporcionando la alegría de conducir a sus clientes, realzando la competitividad tecnológica en general de los vehículos Hyundai al expandir la aplicación de tecnologías de vehículos de alto desempeño a sus vehículos en general.

Hyundai Motor es la pionera en una nueva área de vehículos de alto desempeño pero que son también respetuosos del medio ambiente, al aplicar este enfoque de innovación tecnológica en vehículos tales como el IONIQ 5 N, proporcionando una conducción divertida en la era de la electrificación.

Mirando hacia el futuro, el Hyundai World Rally Team y el TOYOTA GAZOO Racing World Rally Team mostrarán los dinámicos desempeños de ambos equipos cuando compitan en el FORUM8 Rally Japan, la vuelta final de la serie FIA World Rally Championship 2024, que tendrá lugar desde el jueves 21 de noviembre hasta el domingo 24 de noviembre en las prefecturas Aichi y Gifu, en Japón.

🇺🇸🇨🇺🇵🇷🗽 What a way to begin Hispanic Heritage Month and commemorate 25 years since 9/11 in New York.

Thank you to everyone who has read, commented, and shared. This story has now reached around 2 million people across platforms and traveled around the world.

This trip became an emotional homecoming. People traveled to New York not only to remember, but to return pieces of my family’s history.

The most precious was a photograph of Dad and me during my first summer working in his office on the 19th floor of the South Tower. We believed it was lost forever on 9/11. Ms. Carole, one of Dad’s secretaries—whom he helped survive that day—had kept a duplicate. After her passing, her grandson Frankie found it, along with my World Trade Center pass marked 2/19 (South Tower, 19th Floor). I’ve now been asked to submit this history to the National September 11 Memorial & Museum.

I also learned more about Dad’s life: my Cuban father was an early supporter and organizer of the National Puerto Rican Day Parade; his baseball career led to ceremonial first pitches; and in 1972 he received the American Heritage Award during a “Spanish Night” in New York. In 2025, I received the Presidential Lifetime Achievement Award—continuing the legacy of service Mom and Dad began.

Agent Lee shared another chapter: when his family’s Chinatown restaurant was targeted by anti-Asian violence, my parents helped bring the community back—and I, a little girl in a She-Ra shirt, worked beside them asking, “What would Jesus do?” His family called me their 貴人 (Guìrén): a benefactor who arrives at the right moment.

The white suit and black dress I wore in New York belonged to Mom. Wearing them felt like carrying her with me.

As an only child, it has been my greatest honor to have always been by my late parents' side throughout my life and to care for them in their final years. I’m humbled that this story has connected us across different generations and borders.

Thank you for reminding me: “You might be far, but you are never forgotten.”

John 13:34–35 | Jeremiah 29:11

🇺🇸 My Father Survived 9/11—But 9/11 Ultimately Took His Life.

🇺🇸 Twenty-five years ago, my father, José Quintero Ramos, was on the 19th floor of the South Tower when the North Tower was struck. Dad had survived the 1993 World Trade Center bombing and knew something was wrong. He insisted his secretaries and coworkers leave. Holding hands, they formed a human chain and began descending the stairs.

🇺🇸 Then the second plane struck their tower.

🇺🇸 The lights went dark. Smoke, ash, and debris filled the hot stairwell. Dad gave others the handkerchiefs he always carried so they could breathe, leaving only his arm to cover his own face.

🇺🇸 As firefighters and first responders climbed upward, Dad thanked them and squeezed their shoulders. One young firefighter rested his face in Dad’s hand—like a son receiving a father’s blessing. Dad never saw him again.

🇺🇸 Dad and his coworkers escaped and crossed the street only moments before the South Tower collapsed at 9:59 a.m. Those with him later said they would not have survived without his insistence. His courage saved lives.

🇺🇸 For more than ten hours, we did not know whether he was alive.

🇺🇸 Covered in ash, blood, and cuts, he walked for hours across the Brooklyn Bridge to the Cathedral Basilica of St. James, where I was baptized. A priest wiped his face, embraced him, and prayed.

🇺🇸 Our family was blessed with nearly 19 more years—but Dad was never the same. He ultimately died from respiratory failure caused by the toxic air he breathed that day. He is now officially recognized as a 9/11 victim.

🇺🇸 On this 25th anniversary, I remain honor-bound as his daughter to tell his story—especially as 9/11 moves from living memory into history.

🇺🇸 9/11 did not end on September 11, 2001. Its toll continues whenever another survivor or responder dies from a related illness.

🇺🇸 May we remember those lost that day, those lost in the years since, and everyone still suffering.

🇺🇸 Daddy, your courage lives on. We will never forget. 🤍🕊️

🗽 🇺🇸 Daddy, I’ve returned to our home state to represent you at both private and public official 25th anniversary September 11th remembrance events in New York. 
🗽 🇺🇸 Your little girl is traveling solo, but safeguarded at each event by a private security team that has been prearranged for me—just another example of God’s favor and how our (good) reputation has preceded us. 
🗽 🇺🇸 It’s a reaffirmation of your protection over me still and a nostalgic reflection of the times when we all traveled together during our careers. 
🗽 🇺🇸 It is my honor to continue being your daughter and to carry the legacy. 🤍🕊️

🤍 🇨🇺 🇺🇸 🕊️ Grief and Daddy’s Little Girl.

Daddy, six years ago today, you entered eternity. Your courage on 9/11 helped others survive but ultimately cost you your life. You are now officially recognized among its victims.

Mommy passed in January. Nine months later came my MS diagnosis. A year later, on September 6, I lost you—five days before 9/11. Oh, September. We used to be friends because of fall and all things pumpkin. Not anymore.

This photo takes me back outside St. Patrick’s Cathedral. You were about to speak beside Rev. Jesse Jackson at a rally for 7,000 workers displaced by sugar refinery closures. I was seven. You handed me the mic, and I joked that kids loved sugar, families needed jobs, and we had to “keep hope alive.” I only wanted to make you proud—and get the steak sandwich and ice cream you’d promised near the World Trade Center.

Grief doesn’t take a holiday. “The death of a beloved is an amputation.” —C.S. Lewis

My parents taught me to serve and bloom where God planted me. Joshua’s special-needs diagnosis turned my grief into advocacy and a nonprofit for families. Service is our legacy and biblical calling.

But the Church must do better after loss—not only at funerals, but through the months, years, birthdays, and anniversaries. Grief is lifelong, not a race. Heaven doesn’t erase how deeply we miss their presence. Shepherding means calling, listening, and showing up so no one feels invisible or alone.

To those touched by how I honor my parents, thank you. To anyone grieving a loved one, disability, or special-needs parenting: I see you. You’re not alone. Jeremiah 29:11.

To the sweet mama in the UK: throw the plates if you need to. Jesus wept. Jesus got angry. He understands. Call me.

I know Mommy and Daddy are proud, yet my heart and soul are heavy. As the 25th anniversary of 9/11 approaches, I’ll go to NYC alone to honor Daddy.

Te amamos para siempre. 🤍

P.S. If anyone hears the rapture trumpets while I’m gone, tell God I have a VIP Express ticket—and I don’t mind pushing a few people out of the way. 🥹😇😂
