Are you saying that there will be a slow shift of Hyundai going more and more upscale and Kia becoming more and more like Hyundai. That in the future Kia will be all low and mid level cars like Hyundai is now and Hyundai would be high end cars?
 
Possible.

Well sort of. I still think Kia, will make very inexpensive cars on the cheap but at the same time they will stretch into where Hyundai, is now (someday)
 
I think Hyundai, will go slightly more up market in the future starting with the Genesis. I still think it will be a very long time before we see a $55K+ Hyundai

isn't Kia owned by Hyundai? It would make sense that Kia would go against Toyota and Hyundai go against Lexus down the road.

I think that's exactly what they're going to do: bring in more high-end models and leave the inexpensive entry-level stuff to Kia.

If the Genesis is supposed to start "well under" $30k (V6 version), what happens to Axera? Is this Azera's replacement?
 
The Azera is Hyundai's FWD flagship at the moment, but the Genesis will bump it down a notch in the pecking order. The Azera is slated to get the Sonata 3.3L V6 as an option (the 3.8L V6 is the only current engine), which would put in solidly in the mid-$20s range, while the top-end Azera would cost about as much as the base V6 Genesis in the $28-29k neighborhood.

Yep !!!!! I'd be willing to place a bet on it that is what happens.

I didn't know the Azera, is going to get the Sonata's 3.3L V6 ? When is that going to happen ?

2008 MY, I believe. The Azera is already sold with that engine in most of the rest of the world.

Well thanks for the info. I did not know that. I'm curious if and when Hyundai, is going to build a hybrid ?
 
Do they sell hybrids any where in the world ?

Several months ago I heard some scuttlebutt of a hybrid Accent in the next couple of years. Haven't heard anything of late on it.
