There was a huge difference in the cars even for an eye of the TV spectator and I am sure you saw that too. The Toyotas were like go karts while the Hyundais were very stable and clean but also somewhat clumsy. They almost looked like having 200 kg more.

To be honest Hyundais looked like I expected the current WRC generation to look on asphalt when they were first introduced - strong and powerful but dull. Toyota is something different - for me as a amateur I would not expected a car looking so wild and playful to be faster...
