The absolute worst one is Kia’s new logo. However they have managed to go in the opposite direction and make the logo even less clear than it already was.
The KIA logo always reads as “KN” to me, but at least I can fucking read it. The first time I saw the new HP logo I legitimately didn’t know what I was looking at. lip? lili? lqi? lgi? I basically always end up reading it as “lip” instead of “hp”.
I drive a 2017 Kia Soul EV and it still has the old logo and I love it. I love that it is a boring, no-nonsense logo. Just straightforward. KIA. No pretense.
Now it’s КИ (sorry if Cyrillic doesn’t show up on your device)

You mean that new car market no one has ever heard of, KN?

I’d argue that the HP stripe logo is just as bad:

MIT did it correctly, and a long time ago.
Though they redefined the colors to only be monochromatic, no more gray i
I always read them as KN.
Probably the worst logo in the industry.

The new Kia logo looks like they slanted the nine inch nails logo and called it a day.
