It would take a while before a Chinese brand got respect imo.

You must have never ridden in a late 80s, early 90s Hyundai Pony,
a Chevette equivalent if you will.
The initial reputation back then was garbage 30 years ago.
Contrast that to my Dad's 2022 Kia Sorento PHEV. It looks more modern with better looking fit/finish than an equivalent Toyota like a RAV4 Prime.
After being a Toyota guy for 20 years he's not looking back.
"Best car I've ever owned" so far he says
