Unlike the "big 3" , Hyundai has been plagued by perception issues. Everyone looks at Hyundai and associates them with poor quality and poorly built. Over these last few years, they have worked incredibly hard on changing this perception and have done very well...but still have work to do.
Production is another thing I would like to briefly discuss. It all comes down to how large the company is, what the needs of the dealers are, what the people want (loyalty) and perception. So it's really no surprise that these three sold more. Hyundai is a growing company who is trying to change their image.
Overall, what they are doing, is a success...because if not, they wouldn't be around anymore. One can only be bad for so long before it all falls apart.

They aren't selling hardly any...that's all I meant, and I didn't intend to take it any further than that.
hyundai can crawl back into the hole in the ground for all I care, to be honest. So you can see how I'm not predisposed to giving them every benefit of the doubt....
