or are they waiting for other people to design it so they can copy it?

l havent yet seen an original hyundai car.

tiberaun

dud not matter son.. i'd take a used hyundai over a new chevy any day..

lol what do u mean, all Asian car companies copy each other & American cars. if u do ur home work American & European companies came out with the technology implemented in cars to day. l have not seen any Asian car company come out with original revolutionary & practical technology. they have just copied what was already done. EFI, Overhead cams, forced induction, air bags aluminum blockheads, uni body, infinite/alternate variating transmission missions, front wheel drive, all wheel drive, rotary motors ext ext were all invented and/or implemented in American & European cars long before they were selling Asia cars in the States & Europe..

the tiberon was designed by the same italian firm as ferrari uses

Hyundai has designed their own cars from the beginning. Hyundai has owned the Kia motor company for some years, so there r Kia is that share underpinnings with Hyundai's. l do see what u mean, though, as the old Sonata looked like a Jaguar, & the new luxury model looks like a Mercedes. But, Hyundai engineers would be idiots if they did not steal styling cues that have proven themselves effective at selling cars. Besides, who would not mind owning a Jagua looking vehicle for $30k less?
