In terms of diffs, they are now heavily regulated what you can change on a rally.

Only thing that helps the most is testing, and testing. Relevant surfaces. Then you get to learn much of the car´s behaviour. Did I hear Huyndai wasn´t doing that in a proper way?

Someone can correct me but can they even do a proper test when it is so restricted? As I understand, whit the current regulations, each manufacturer is limited to 21 days of testing per year. And these can be distributed across its driver line-up as it sees fit. But this means that all your drivers can't even test for all the rallies, if you want to have proper one day test. So you are testing for rally but you would also like to have some development tests.

Yes there is a permanent test site but it is usually one surface type.

Main problem with Hyundai is still the late development in 2021. It seems some main errors can't be fixed and they are trying to work around them.

Yeah. I see. However testing before CER in rain, doesn´t give you anything of cars handling on bonedry tarmac. That´s my point. (having said that I´m not sure it was only wet...)
