10 Cars That Should Not Have Been As Successful as They Are

Hyundai Genesis

Since the mid-2000s, Hyundai has been known for creating quality, reliable family vehicles like the Elantra and the Entourage. But let’s be real, they hadn’t been known for making anything too memorable until the Genesis. More similar to the to a high quality sports sedan like the BMW 5 series than a mom van, the Genesis really showed us what Hyundai was capable of. However, there was speculation that although the Genesis was less expensive than cars of a similar calibre, they were still more expensive than customers were used to for a Hyundai and. Therefore, it was expected not to succeed.

It turned out that the doubters were indeed wrong and the Genesis was a huge success and owners were pleased with their high quality car that would have arguably cost more if another company had made it. The Genesis was such a hit that the second generation is on the current market.
