Maybe 10 years ago they might have. The recently released Genesis G70 largely shares many of the 3 year old Stinger parts (platform, dash, headunit screen, brakes, etc). I think you’ll find the comparable Kia models are priced similar to the equivalent Hyundai model. Having owned both I can’t see how anyone could say Kia is the cheap brother.
eg:
Hyunda Tucson Highlander CRDi $48,800
Kia Stortage GT-Line CRDi $47,690
Hyundai Sante Fe Highlander $60,500
Kia Sorento GT-Line $58,990
And of course the JD Quality Study also agrees the Korean cars are ****boxes...NOT (see attachment)
