so why Toyota corolla 2024 LE (most basic model) is 5k more expensive than a Hyundai Venue 2024? what are the better benefits for $5k?
Because it’s a Hyundai…
Not that this model is affected by it but the reputation of Hyundai/Kia being easily stolen (with a USB key) is enough for me to steer clear of that headache.
They can steal your Hyundai very easily
Not the new ones.
Hyundai is fast fashion…good looking car but doesn’t last as long. Their engines are shit. Just Google for yourself.
Are you really comparing a Hyundai to a Toyota?
Toyota realibilty and re-sale alone should be a no Brainer.
I mean, Hyundai dealership will mark it up to the same price or more so.
The benefits of paying an extra $5k up front are better reliability, less time wasted at the shop, less money wasted at the shop, higher resale value, and a car that’s going to last way longer overall. Kia and Hyundai build throwaway cars. They throw that 10 year warranty on to attract more buyers because people see that and think they’ll just fix anything that goes wrong or breaks. One of my close friends used to work as a tech doing warranty work at a local Hyundai dealer. So many blown engines that that’s all he ended up doing. Some cars would be stuck for months because of parts delays.
Because people steal Hyundai all the time
Everyone is missing one key point and that’s size. The venue is a sub compact and is considered smaller than the compact corolla.
Have you heard of resale value?
It’s also going to cost you $100 bucks a month more to insure the new Hyundai/Kia
Get the Toyota. Hyundais are garbage. I have one, and am eager to get rid of it.
Why ask when you already bought a car? Seems like a better question for beforehand.
You’re actually comparing a Kia with a Toyota? Wow……
You get something that lasts for 200,000+ miles with no major drivetrain work. Do a search for “Hyundai engine issues” vs “Toyota Engine Issues” and see what turns up.
