Hyundai rippin' off Nissan

No idea where to post this, so mods, if you have a better idea please relocate!

Is it just me is hyundai completely ripping off nissan's designs?

First with their Genesis coupe which is way too much like the G37 and now this:

Rogue/Murano much???

I guess we'll have to wait and see how close it really is but those drawings look an awful lot like nissan's.

GODDAMNIT.

NO MORE THREADS ABOUT HYUNDAI. What does this make? Like 1264 or something now? We get it. They borrow, heavily, other manufacturers designs. First Jag, then Merc now Infiniti and Nissan.

Oh. Did Hyundai just start doing that? I mean, didn't they start copying other cars in like 94? Why is this still news.

Right...not really?


Hmm....


Anybody...?

I don't see why everybody is hating so much on Hyundai recently, every car maker takes cues from other car makers. A car type only has so many ways to be designed.

^ Nissan Rogue & Infiniti EX are both from Nissan, that's why they look alike. But yes, every car maker has design similarities from other cars.

I was comparing the Murano to the concept which I don't think looks too similar.
Then my 2nd comparison was the EX concept to the Subaru WRX.
