2007 Hyundai Veracruz Limited review from North America
"An exceedingly valuable utility vehicle"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing, this is a brand new Huyundai Veracruz crossover SUV.
General comments?
An excellent value compared to most of its direct competitors such as the Mazda CX-9, GMC Acadia/Saturn Outlook/Buick Enclave.
Fully loaded with everything it's $45,000, whereas a GMC Acadia fully loaded w.o NAVI is approx close to $60 grand.
However to create more sales, Hyundai should consider making a base model without leather and sunroof, and all the other luxury items, to be in "direct" competition.
Smooth engine that has is smoother than a Lexus RX350, which has been proven.
Tons of space, however the third row of seats is limited to children or small occupants... this is where the Acadia shines.
Overall, excellent value when compared to other CUV's. Impressed with the overall quality, and we shall see how the long term reliability of the vehicle is.
