Hyundai Auto Corp. are on their way to the top. All 3 brands under the umbrella are building impressive vehicles. Not always top of class, but stylish, well built and amenity laden. Hyundai, Kia, Genesis are set to take the EV world by storm as well, many great offerings coming.
Many people still like to dwell on the 2.4L Theta II rod bearing failures when talking about Hyundai reliability. In reality, it only affected several model years (and much like Porsche IMS failures, only certain engines were affected) and was caused by poor machining of oil galleys by the supplier. I think most Hyundai/Kia/Genesis vehicles lead in reliability/initial quality surveys now.
The GV70 is likely my next vehicle once the dust settles with supply issues.
