Each new generation Hyundai is a quantum leap in design over the previous model. They are like the Borg of the automotive world, they rapidly adapt and assimilate, and continue to get increasingly stronger.
I can't wait for the Sportage version. The greenhouse is totally diffrent than this. The next Sportage's greenhouse looks like the Kia Kue. And once it comes on here. Someone is going to say "Kia uses cheap plastics" Although Vince thinks the Huhduh CRV uses it too. Didn't no one say that. So I can assume the Civic uses it too and the Fit. But when it comes to the Soul, cheap plastics. I didn't hear that about the Cube. I didn't hear that about the Sentra but the Forte got cheap plastics. I didn't hear that about the Yaris. But the Rio got the critizim of cheap plastics. I didn't hear that about the Jeep Grand Cherokee. I didn't hear that about the Charger or the Impala. I didn't hear negative commets about them. If someone wants to put Hyundai and Kia for using platics. I'm putting everyone out there that uses it. How you going to talk about something when someone else use the same plastics. The accadia uses it Too. The Chevy Treverse, Saturn Outlook. Pontiac G8. They uses hard plastics. HARD PLASTICS in all those cars.
"it's the only way anyone would stand up for Kia like that ....busted!" I DISAGREE. Kia/Hyundai have made phenominal inroads in safety, quality, style in 15 very short years. Moving MUCH faster into the mainstream than say, Toyota in the 1960's, or Honda in the 1970's. I've never owned a Kia/Hyundai, but am looking VERY hard at getting a Genesis Sedan. And I can afford an S-class. Times change. Try to keep up. Buick now has better quality than Toyota/Lexus or Honda/Acura (look at the latest JDpowers reports for starters). If you're knocking Kia, you living in the PAST!

Okay.
There's a wee bit of Genesis coupe in the dash design...looks good!
This looks pretty good!
I don't know if I would take one over a CR-V though.
...so this is interior is 'really nice' and the CRV is cheap... hmmm...
Good enough for a Lexus RS, but I wouldn't want it.
I will buy it and I really really like it both interior and exterior. Great work Kia..keep it up

you are not buying it and neither are we. you work at kia, it's the only way anyone would stand up for Kia like that ....busted!
Nice! And I even like the steering wheel. The door panel looks good but I would imagine that piece that sticks out will infringe on lateral leg room.
There seems to a few comments from people who work for kia and hyundai.
No point up talking these.
Here's one exterior picture from the Hyundai Korean website:

Okay.
The front end design is quite busy, but no worse than the CR-V.

SAME PERSON COMMENTING.
Busted.
Give up, go buy a Chrysler or something that is pure crap. I'd rather own ANY Kia than a Chrysler.
I like the soft plastic when I have head-on accidents...It feels much nicer on my internal organs.
Hyundai/Kia are becoming excellent competitors.
