Hyundai has presented a new wheel and tire design that incorporates built-in snow chains that deploy and retract at the push of a button, potentially putting an end to the fiddly, freezing process of wrapping and removing traditional snow chains.
Hyundai unveils car tires with built-in, push-button snow chains::undefined
Mine and my roommate’s Hyundais were stolen. His was stolen by a child. We know this because the high schooler that stole my roommate’s car kept parking it randomly around the neighborhood because he obviously couldn’t bring it home to his parents and parked the car directly in front of our house (he stole it from a train stop so didn’t know). We caught the kid when he came back for it. The kid was 16.
Mine was stolen and then used in 3+ more hijackings involving a gun according to the FBI agent assigned to my case.
The car could transform into Voltron for all I care.
How they treated people in the past few years, ignoring their shitty security practices and gaslighting customers for getting their car stolen for their bad engineering until the fucking government had to step in? What a joke.

Easy to steal them I think.
Only in the US and only extremely cheap versions of models. Other countries have mandatory immobilizer.
You can steal a Kia with a USB!
Some were getting stolen with a pen!
