These Hyundai Advertisements Reiterate the Brand's Luxury Cushions

Hyundai has redone the inside of their vehicles and have used an ultra luxurious material. In this ad campaign, three adorable dogs are about to go for a ride in the car, but before they can get in, they have to get socks put on their paws.
