Does the Hyundai warranty apply to used cars?

I’m planning to get a used car since the wait time for a new one is so long for many brands. I love that Hyundai has good warranty terms but does it apply to used cars?

Getting a used car is definitely faster if you need one ASAP!
Most of Hyundai’s warranty is transferable and will apply to used cars for the remaining term but some will change from the original warranty. Below are the details.
Changes once warranty transferred to the new owner:
  • Powertrain warranty: goes from 10 years/100,000-mile to 5 years/60,000 miles
  • Hybrid battery warranty for 2012-2019 vehicles: goes from lifetime to 10 years/100,000 miles
  • Roadside assistance and complimentary maintenance are not transferable
No changes once transferred:
  • Bumper-to-bumper factory warranty: 5 years/60,000 miles
  • Anti-perforation warranty: 7 years/unlimited miles
  • Replacement parts and accessories limited warranty: 12 months/12,000 miles
  • Hybrid system components warranty: 10 years/100,000 miles
  • Hybrid electric battery for 2020 vehicles: 10 years/100,000 miles
  • Federal emission defect and performance warranty: 8 years/80,000 miles
  • California emission control systems warranty: 7 years/70,000 miles
Please note that the coverage periods start from the original in-service date. For example, the 2020 Hyundai Elantra bumper-to-bumper warranty would expire in 2025.
