I think - give then twenty years and then see where they are at. Very young car company and they take years to get going. Hyundai is only about 40 years old and they are just really starting to make some though not all desirable cars

I agree, mind you Hyundai have had an easier life, and they are in the top ten largest car brand.

Kia didnt start making cars til the early 1970's. They were formed in the 1940s your right but they made pushbike wheels and then mopeds from the 60s. Their first 3 wheeler was in the late 60s called the K-360. Proper cars started in the early 70s in Korea but only city cars,

Interesting times ahead for the Hyundai Kia group as their chairman has been arrested and indicted on fraud charges and they have just signed an agreement to build a state of the art factory in the Czech Republic

As much as protons may be appreciated, please stop talking about them so much, so terribly boring, isnt there any other type of car we can talk about, apart from this cheap tat people buy becuase they cant afford a real car.
