I looked at Hyundai's when I bought a sedan this summer, but they were now quite a bit more than the comparably equipped Nissan, so I bought that instead. I really like my Hyundai, but probably wouldn't spend extra for the brand.
Same here. At the end of the day what drew us in was the price. It was brand new in '16, and you weren't finding a comparable car with heated steering wheel, heated seats front and back and AWD for less than $30k. I'd say the Escape is a better vehicle (although ugly) but not better to the tune of an extra $10 000 to get it similarly equipped
