How many logos does Hyundai have?
2 Answers
Hyundai has three logos. The Hyundai trademark (H logo) is used in the Chinese market, but it is sold under the Tuscani trademark (T logo) in the Korean market and the Tiburon trademark (T logo) in the North American market. Here is an extended introduction: 1. Introduction to the T logo and H logo: The T logo and H logo are identical in appearance, both belonging to the third generation, with slight differences in configuration. For example, the T logo is equipped with xenon headlights, while the H logo is not. 2. Meaning of the H logo: The slanted letter H inside the ellipse of Hyundai Motor Company's logo is the first letter of the company's English name, HYUNDAI. The ellipse represents both a car steering wheel and the Earth, symbolizing Hyundai's global presence.
I've always been fascinated by the history of automotive brands, especially Hyundai Motor Group, which is a giant with three major brand logos. Hyundai's own logo is that slanted 'H' letter, symbolizing progress and globalization, and it has been sailing since 1967. Later in 1998, they acquired Kia, whose logo is an oval with the letters 'KIA', representing the Earth and balance, giving off a youthful and sporty vibe. Then in 2015, they launched the premium brand Genesis, with a logo featuring a pair of wings, symbolizing elegance and luxury, which made the group more complete. Each logo precisely targets its market: Hyundai is a reliable choice for the masses, Kia appeals to the younger generation, and Genesis competes with luxury cars. This diversification helps the group stand firm in the fiercely competitive market, and I think there are deep brand stories behind each logo's design.
