Hyundai Kona Rear End WTF?

The Chunk (from the Goonies) of the Hyundai range.

The rear end of this car surely resides under the heading of ‘What were they thinking?’. To call it ungainly is being kind. What is with the outboard brake and reversing lights? It reminds me of Russian Volga cars from the 60s. A surprising gaff from the company that made the Tucson, and very well-balanced design indeed. Different team I expect, of junior experience. Redesign required, immediately please.
