Also has some box cavity elements, no?
Without an overhead, plan-view, it's hard to tell their intention. They may just be providing a hard edge to force separation should the plan contour be a source of bistable flow, where that line could dance around,causing aeroelastic booming and panel flutter.Also, back-soiling of the taillights might have been a consideration. I think Hyundai had a battle royale fighting to get a upper separation line like the A110.
