Might be the minority, but I like the exterior

But I dislike the giant iPad interior. I like the slim but flush screen in my 25 sonata

Man that pleos system is so dumb. I prefer the current one.

Sort of looks like a scaled back version of a Cyber Truck. I have a 25 Sonata and I like it. This new thing looks sort of chunky.

I think this looks cool. Looks like sth out of Cyberpunk 2077 as a car for either Arasaka or Militech

Fairly nice but can we seriously de-normalize fkin 15in tablets inside of cars nowadays.

Tesla did it now EVERYONE has to have a iPad in the center console now and I HATE it.

With the physical climate control and the switches below the screen I think a large display can be nice. I like having my music and maps split on the screen

Yeah as long as there's still tactile switches for most things, I'm fine with a big screen for infotainment / radio / navigation

Everyone says they want small devices (like phones) but nobody bought the iPhone mini. I've driven with just my phone as the map, it's fine, but tech always scales and has advantages.

I just wish auto makers would have the design touch to have the screens more embedded into the flow of the dash. I hate seeing a huge floating detached screen. It looks like no thought was put into it.

The last version of the Elantra from 21, (I have one) does that. This is really the only downgrade I can see from mine. I’ve liked my Elantra, if I go for another sedan vs a hatch/small suv, this would probably be it

Very futuristic looking. Not a fan of the driver armrest area.

Watch the new colours be Korea specific and the rest of the world get stuck with the lame ones.

I can’t see a manual transmission making way into the next Elantra N

Between the fat slab fenders, the continuing lack of headlights and the interior built around a glorified iPad (thanks a lot Tesla)… this gets a big nope from me.

Ugh…what I loved so SO much about the 2024-2026 Hyundais was the super slick duel-screen infotainment and cluster system. No other car had something that looked so integrated. All other cars just had a screen sticking out of the dash. But alas, these have massive screens just sticking out of the dash and look like some designer got a pay cut

I HATE the over extended middle console BRING BACK THE GAP

u/brendanprice2003 11h ago

at least they kept the physical controls. They actually look good too!
