Boring
It's a "car", it starts, it runs.
But... that's about it.
It is small. It is very small. (I didn't realize that until after the fact).
To me, compared to what I was used to (2015 VW Jetta TDI, 20xx Mercedes), everything is backwards / upside-down. Left is Right & Up is Down, & vice-versa.
The, I suppose it is, (the CVT) transmission, more then anything else, just gives it a lackadaisical feel.
I've had SLOW before, Peugeot 504 D, but you could row the gears & make it work, & it was fun. But this, is simply... boring.
(Disclaimer. I'm not likely to particularly like ANY current car out there. I drove many, before purchase, & none excited me. [I do not like all the electronic "gizmos".]
So don't take my overall, negative, if you will tone as a negative, per se. Also, I would much rather have purchased a "car", but cars are not really manufactured, any more.)
What else... noise. Wind/road noise. Yep. Radio. Absolutely sucks. Don't know why, maybe the antenna, but reception simply stinks.
I don't really expect much, I'm a pretty basic person, I don't need fancy-schmancy, but... seems like Hyundai skimped on the little things, where everything "just works", as wanted, as expected, but here, it just falls a bit short. (I would love to have gotten another (2015) VW Jetta TDI again, but everything that was great in that car, is ruined in their 2026's.)
The car may very well please others, but just doesn't really cut it - for me.
4000 miles, & it has been reliable - it had better be ;-), & if it remains so, I'll trudge along with it.
Won't change my opinion, so it will just be...
... If the center arm rest actually fit my arm, if the radio reception were better, if the cruise control were a bit more logical, I'd be a much happier camper.
As it is, it is what it is - & for me, neither here, nor there. Boring, you might say ;-).
