The Most Beautiful & The Ugliest Cars: Hyundai

[cawimmer430]

MOST BEAUTIFUL


1998-2003 Hyundai XG - Easily the first best-looking Hyundai. Is it stunning? No, but it is pleasing to the eye. An inoffensive and handsome design.





2008-2016 Hyundai Genesis Coupe - One of the best-looking Hyundai products in recent years. An easy choice in a sea of rather bland products.





2017 Hyundai Elantra GT - It may be new, but damn this car looks good inside and out. If someone gave me one I would not say no.







UGLIEST

Most of Hyundai's "ugly" cars are just boring to me, not necessarily ugly. I did always consider these two Hyundai products to be an eyesore...


1998-2003 Hyundai Galloper - Take the relatively nice-looking first generation Mitsubishi Pajero and ruin it and you get this. Great value for money, though!





1999-2007 Hyundai Terracan - Unbeatable value for money, but ugly as sin.

'03-'06 Tiburons were sharp cars.  Best-looking car Hyundai ever made.

I don't think they were very good looking, but they were decent-looking.  The Genesis Coupe was a downgrade, IMO...though apparently Wimmer disagrees.

They're all ugly .

The early gen 2 Tibs, not the later, facelifted ones.  I didn't care for the facelifted ones.  The original 2nd gens looked very Italian (though we're penned by Hyundai in-house).

Beautiful Hyundai=Oxymoron.

That Galloper looks sweet IMO.

I really like the new G80 Sport:

It looks "beautiful" for a Hyundai...

Honestly the only Hyundai which has really made me go "WOW" was the new Elantra GT (in the press photos).

How can we forget the two boomerangs that saved Hyundai?





Yes the Sonata was a ripoff of the CLS, but man did it look good. To this day I still think this Elantra is one of the best compact car designs of all time. Really beautiful.

It's always interesting how different and subjective the design tastes are. And there's no right or wrong - it's all personal opinion and subjective.

I do agree that this iteration of Hyundai was the best.

This car looks like ass.
