How reliable is a Hyundai?

Would a Hyundai be a reliable car for my teenager’s first car? My daughter just got her license and I want to buy a car for her birthday, but I want to make sure that whatever I buy will last for a while.

Yes!
Hyundais
are known for being very reliable cars. The brand consistently scores very well for reliability on customer surveys. With proper care, Hyundais can last for ​​up to 300,000 miles or 20 years.
When it comes to a first car, Hyundais are also a great choice because they are affordable and cost-efficient. Even if you need to make repairs, they typically won’t be very expensive. Plus, Hyundais aren’t known for being particularly fast or dangerous, so they’re a nice, safe choice for someone who is still getting used to driving.
