This is Hyundai/Kia we’re talking about. In 5-6 years, half of these lights will be dead. The official design language of H/K/G is to throw everything at the wall and hope everything sticks.

I’m going to go ahead and say any modern day Maserati. Don’t get me wrong, I love Maserati as a brand and I think the new MC20 is going to be a stellar vehicle (let’s exclude that one from this discussion for a minute since it’s just too new).
