The lack of Hybrid wording is mainly what surprised me when it's a new era of car.

And I meant the livery looks like before, not the car.

A few hybrid logos and maybe a flash of green would make the i20 look like it was something really different...

I also liked the last iteration of the C3 WRC, otherwise, good liveries beforehand would be, VW's which was pretty neat imho, M-Sport's 2013-2015 liveries, and the now classic(?) C4 & DS3 Red-bull liveries.

True. quattro system did same for Audi, it was small brand compared to BMW/Mercedes.

I should have used word "mostly" before Sporty models.

Personally I don’t like it.. it’s not the 1980s any more.

I’m sure it’s function over form though. Talking of which what are the homologation/joker rules around aero parts? We’ve seen teams making quite frequent changes in recent years. This can’t be cheap.

Hyundai using a show car. Not a real rally car.

Things seem to boil there a little.. not a nice comment in my view when the decision to retire was based on health reasons. I guess the comment is just made on pure emotion after a disappointing event but still..
