Compare Hyundai Car Insurance

The history

What do you think was the first car to roll off the Hyundai production line? Would you believe it was actually a Ford Cortina!? Hyundai started up as a joint venture with Ford. 

They were managed initially by the former leader of Austin Morris responsible for some iconic, if questionable designs. If you’re old enough, think back to the Allegro and Princess.  If you’re not old enough, ask your Dad!

From such beginnings the group is now the fifth largest producer in the world. In 2014 they sold some 7.7m cars, almost double the 4m they had sold only three years earlier.
