How Hyundai Became The Third Largest Automaker In The World
Переглядів 984,588
День томуHyundai Motor Group is the 3rd largest automaker in the world by volume. In the 1990s, it suffered low sales and a reputation for low quality. Now its three auto brands - Hyundai, Kia and Genesis - are nipping at the heels of well established competitors, and winning award after award. While Tesla still dominates the EV industry, Hyundai and Kia are inching closer. But the company also wants to revolutionize manufacturing, invest in robotics, autonomous driving and flying taxis, ambitions that many rivals have abandoned. But the company has also faced setbacks: a plague of thefts, millions of vehicles at risk of catching fire, a looming union push and a snub from the U.S. government.

My advice is to inspect the people who utilize their vehicles for work, trades and construction people. Not a single one drives Hyundai, for good reason. Only Ford and Toyota know how to build trucks with good reliable quality. Clueless and people with bad credit buy Hyundai, when you can buy a Landcruiser, Hilux, RAV4, Tacoma, Tundra, Corolla, Prius, Camry etc.

I had an old Hyundai Azera as a hand me down car from my father, then I bought my first car, Kia Morning, and then upgraded to 2019 Kia Forte. Now I drive Ioniq 5. Every single car did not break down or had any issue which was amazing. Throughout my ownerships, it was like being a fan of an underdog sports team that made it to the championship games. I am proud of these guys stepping up their game each time they launch a new line of cars. Hyundai and Kia might be new in the industry but for some people, these two brands have already been their life companions. Give them a chance if you consider getting a new car. Test drive and they won't fail to impress👍

I am German in Germany and I totally underestimated their formerly poor quality. Two years ago I made some test drives with with a few different EVs and also the Kia EV6 GT AWD that was totally outstanding and it had everything I wanted in a car, smart technical safety mechanisms everywhere, enormous power with zero noise, fantastic handling, just jaw dropping. That impression created a 180° turn on my outdated opinion of their quality. Today I also drive a Kia EV and I am really happy with it and its 7 year warranty, more than 3 times longer than the warranty of "quality" German cars. How come they are supposedly so great and expensive, even without basic technology features and the manufacturer doesn't trust in their own technical reliability!? I have been born in a neighborhood that isn't wealthy in average and when I visit and look at the cars, I'd say 50% of the vehicles are made by Hyundai or Kia, because people are not into wasting money on a prestigious brand, they just want a reliable daily driver with plenty of warranty to be safe on the mobility budget and buy their inexpensive combustion cars. They used to drive smaller VW's, Opel, Ford, some still do but the majority switched to South Korean cars. I hope EVs will soon be available to the masses, else climate change will mess up this planet ever faster than we believe. Kia is working on the EV3 (this year) and EV4 (next year) which are supposed to be more affordable. Good luck to the Hyundai Motor Group - you guys are doing things right and are on a great path 👍

When I was fresh out of college, and starting my first "real in my industry job," I did some research, and decided instead of buying a used Toyota Camry or Ford Taurus, I bought what was then the cheapest new car available in the US - the Hyundai Accent. Hyundai still had a "questionable" reputation then, but they offered a 100,000 mile warranty. I had zero problems with it during 150,000 miles of ownership (which only took 5 years.) It was remarkably well put together for being a tiny little econobox that didn't even have power windows.

I just leased a ‘24 Ioniq 5 at the beginning of November. So far, about 4k miles in, the car has been great. No issues (not that there should be in a brand new car) and no problem with charging. I’ve taken a couple of small (< 1000 mile) road trips that have been uneventful. Mostly, I just charge at home once a week, which is super convenient. Overall, I couldn’t be happier with my purchase, but I know they aren’t for everyone.

Now we have the Ioniq 6 for daily commute and a VW T6.1 for longer trips with the family. We think about switching to the EV9 for the T6.1 but maybe we take the Ioniq 7 or remain - lets see.

I remember traveling to South Korea 🇰🇷 as a soldier twice and seeing the Hyuandai cars of that Era. They were total rust buckets during the early 90s, but soldiers bought them because they were cheap. One of the most common cars was Chevrolet Corsicas being as taxis. I have mixed feelings on some of their engineering, but the progress they have made is like night and day. They have made progress in areas that some brands have performed poorly in. More EVs if that matters, nicer interiors, and to a degree in styling.

I paid $40,000 CAD for my 2024 N Line Kona. - if I wanted the features that were included in it in another vehicle I'd be paying at least 50% more from another automaker. I worked at Toyota as a rustproof tech, and got to drive every vehicle they've made + customer cars, Lexus's, and whatever used vehicles we had for sale. I was never really happy with Toyota's offerings, they were very stale when it came to the design, and often were far more expensive than both Kia and Hyundai offerings while offering a fraction of what was included with Hyundai. What sold me though was the 5 year warranty that comes with the car, peace of mind given their track record. And the fact I only pay $7 bi weekly to cover the tech, wheels, and extend the warranty to 8 years is insane.

While others play with hydrogen and hybrids (yes, they have some for outsiders image sake), they are full steam ahead with EV only, and 800v.

현대차의 초기 품질 문제는 미국의 무역 규제를 의식하여 북미권역에서 부품조달을 한 것이 가장 큰 이유입니다. 대부분 미쯔비시-크라이슬러의 서플라이 체인에서 공급받은 부품들이었는데, 품질이 개판이었고 겨울철이면 시동불량, 여름이면 에어컨 불량에 시달렸습니다. 결국 이런 공급망과 결별하면서 기사회생한 겁니다. 캐나다의 브로몽 공장의 악몽 역시 같은 문제였습니다. 지금 미쯔비시와 크라이슬러의 위치를 본다면 이해가 빠를 겁니다. 그들은 북미 시장의 일부 포트폴리오에서 같은 문제를 공유했던 것이지요. 현대에겐 일부가 아니라 거의 전부였겠지만... 반면 한국 내수용에선 그런 문제는 거의 없었습니다. 다만 Y2 쏘나타의 경우 미국산 GE 에어컨 드라이의 불량으로 초도 출고분 부터 이슈가 발생하였고, 즉각 한국산 MANDO 제품으로 국산화 대체된 이후 문제가 해결되었죠. Y2 소나타는 한국에선 대성공을 이루면서 Opel의 중형차의 한국모델인 대우자동차의 로얄을 시장에서 축출하다시피할 정도로 성공했지만 캐나다 현지 생산품은 북미주에서 조달한 부품 품질 문제로 그냥 망했습니다. 한편 90년경에는 일본 자동차 업계의 센서류 공급중단을 통한 전방위적인 공격이 있었으나 이 역시 국산화로 해결했습니다. 다만 이로인한 품질 불안과 공급 불안으로 인한 파장은 작지 않았습니다. 이후 현대는 일본업계와 거리를 두고 국산화를 한편 독일 부품업계와 밀착하게 됩니다. 미국 진출 초기 현대차는 토요타의 카피캣이 아니라, 영국 포드의 경험과 미쯔비시의 기본 설계가 바탕이었습니다. 미국엔 판매되지 않았으나 캐나다에서 성공한 스텔라의 경우 포드 마크V에 미쯔비시 파워트레인에 쥬지아로의 디자인이 합쳐진 형태였죠.

They got the stinger, a genuinely amazing sports car, and their/hyundai’s electric cars are probably some of the best, if not the best, EVs on the market.

But what surprised me the most was how I had ZERO problems with the vehicle after all the horror stories I heard. In 2021 I bought a brand new Ford Escape. BIGGEST MISTAKE OF MY LIFE. so many issues and the worst thing is the dealership went OUT OF THEIR WAY to be annoyed. My escape was out of service for 5 months and when I would call my "rep" has the audacity to pull an attitude. Was this after daily calls? No. I literally called twice after waiting a month. This and topped off with their disgusting treatment of their workers....why should I be loyal to a company who betrays their own workers?

I wanted one until I started talking to mechanics that work on them. I wouldn't even consider a Kia or Hyundai now. Their engines blow head gaskets left and right, because the headbolts aren't sufficiently bolted onto the block. They only grab onto 3 or 4 rows of threads. Most headbolts screw into 5 or 6 rows threads. Since the bolts are only held on by 3 rows of threads, the head doesn't properly seat and literally bounces around. It eventually wears down the head gasket until it finally disintegrates. If you don't catch it in time, your engine is toast. This is the case for the new ones too.
