>that GTR ripoff roof line which doesn't suit the rest of the car

>needs to have lane assist to be considered safe

>Meanwhile American half tons still fold up at the cab and they consider it "good"

Not to mention the front end looks very audi R8

GOTTA HAVE THOSE DRIVER AIDS BRO
Why the fuck do these retards even need to get a licence when the cars literally drive themselves?

Meanwhile i can drive perfectly and get my licence threatened on a whim because a cop thinks im a hoon

What the fuck

The Mustang got 2 stars, which also made me kek

A car that got five when it was new gets zero now, people should ignore overall rating as a measure of how much of a deathtrap it is.

What regulators need to do is define new catagories for cars based on how much or what kinds of idiot proofing they have:

>fully autonomous
always auto pilot all the time

>Semi autonomous heavy
can have auto pilot, will take control to keep you from running into someone, and can take the hits when you drive it into something or it drives into something.

>Semi autonomous light
requires better performance in collision avoidance than semi auto heavy, to the point that it never runs into things so it doesn't need to be built to take front end hits.

>Manual
No sensors and no protection required. You got the qualifications to use this car because you worked for the right to take your life and the lives of others entirety into your own hands while on public roads and buy cheap cars.

Each category requires its own licence you get based on how well you do at the driving test, which needs to be much harder to keep the morons out of cars they can crash. Like, they will text you during the test to see if you'll go to your phone, and see if you can brake or swerve for obstacles that jump out at you.

They need to be careful though, to make sure enough people qualify for manual cars for manufacturers to actually produce them, and produce them cheaper than other catagories.

> Lol the car is a fucking deathtrap
Did you expect anything different? This is the same company that puts out years of defective engines and then needs to be sued to have them honor their own warrantee.

Euroncap is kinda wrong, they are mixing passive safety and active in one fucking mark.

With this sort of shit you can equip Chery Amulet with AEB and get three star rating...

>this design will not do-- copy something
The concept was at least a somewhat unique looking car. How they got from that to a kia 4 series is a lesson in wrong.

Fuck you. That would spell the death of car enthusiasm. Nobody would do manual ever, so nobody would make it

>They need to be careful though
Mmmmm be very careful now

>duuurrrr it's dangerous because I actually have to pay attention to the road to not crash stuff

Why was Hyundai okay with recalling the cars which are mechanically the same, while Kia wasn't? They're pretty much the same company. Is Kias dealer network really that much more shitty than Hyundai?

You cant be this stoopid. No one can.

.25 seconds on google: hyundai engine recalls

lol a friend of mine has a elanta with these exact problems its the worst fucking turd and its only from 2010

There are entire websites devoted to their nonsense. Anyone buyining a Kis, Hyundai or Genesis should run like hell.

> The South Korean engineer, Kim Kwang-ho, says Hyundai knew the Theta II engines have problems that cause knocking, noise and a loss of power. Kwang-ho blew the whistle by contacting the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), an act that caused Hyundai to petition a court to close the mouth of the engineer.

> The engineer has been employed by Hyundai for 25 years and according to Nikkei Asian Review, when the automaker learned about the engineer singing to U.S. safety regulators, Kwang-ho was hauled in front of Hyundai's disciplinary committee.

> While Hyundai and a court decide how to handle the engineer, the Theta II engine referenced in the story has caused the automaker trouble in the past that led to recalls and lawsuits.

Atleast it's not as bad as the chinese. They tried to get their landwind x7 or whatever the fuck their evoque carbon copy is called to pass crash testing. It coudn't pass for several attempts, then they tried to buy an evoque and put landwind x7 logos on it. Luckily they got caught because that shit doesn't fucking fly

Well if they don't change something car enthusiasm is dead anyway because all the cars are too heavy, low visibility, complicated, and its only going to get worse as self driving electric transport pods become the norm.

doesn't the mustang have only two stars?

driver aids make the roads less safe because people pay less attention, its just a marketing gimmick, in a few years something else will come out and all the current cars will be consider too unsafe to drive

Of course it's not nearly as bad as the chinks, doesn't excuse the gooks from selling sub-par stuff

Heck, Chebby, Fiat, Nee-san, and others have been doing chinkshit-tier shtuff for decades down here in spicland (for fuck's sake, check out Chevrolet in this here list, it's crazy they sell at all)

Does that excuse everyone else from doing piss-poor cars? Hell no, it just means some companies make shitty products, at least in the safety department

Besides airbags not inflating properly, which is pretty damn bad, it got criticized for not braking automatically, which is kind of ridiculous, since the driver is the one supposed to keep eyes on the road, not the car itself. Having a car that stops/drives itself will likely make people complacent and pay less attention to the road and the many unexpected situations that constantly happen

I have literally no idea how people didn't die before 2017

>when the automaker learned about the engineer singing to U.S. safety regulators, Kwang-ho was hauled in front of Hyundai's disciplinary committee
I'm surprised he didn't commit suicide via 2 bullets to the back of the head after a visit from the gook yakuza
