Replying to: guyf (Aug 29, 2005 3:23 am) Actually, that's a separate, larger vehicle than the '07 Santa Fe (CM). This has caused some major confusion on many message boards. The SUV mentioned in that press release is internally code-named "EN." It will seat seven adults comfortably, and John Krafcik, Hyundai's Vice President of Product Development and Strategic Planning, recently confirmed that the exterior styling will be similar to the Azera and new Santa Fe. Like the Santa Fe, the as-yet-unnamed ute is car-based, but will be more upscale, priced higher, and roomier. Perhaps this is the easiest way to think of it: the EN is to the CM, what the Azera is to the Sonata.   The CM will go on sale as scheduled for Spring 2006, while the EN should debut later in the year, also as a 2007 model-year vehicle.   Mike
#36 of 2966 More CM photos.... by mike_belknap Aug 29, 2005 (8:46 pm)
Here are some new spy shots for you all. They're the first to clearly show the side styling. The US-spec models won't be getting the side repeater lamps or blacked-out B- and C-pillars... or the front and rear camo, for that matter.   Photos 1 & 2 Photos 3 & 4   Mike Replies to this message: guyf (Aug 30, 2005 3:12 am)

#38 of 2966 CM? EN? by newdoc2002 Aug 30, 2005 (12:11 pm)
So will the 07 Santa Fe seat seven? or just the larger all new model?   It would be nice to have a reasonably priced seaven seater SUV that isn't a tank, is dependable, gets more than 15 mpg and is better looking than the Tribeca. And not a minivan. Replies to this message: guyf (Aug 30, 2005 1:50 pm) mike_belknap (Aug 30, 2005 1:54 pm) hmma007 (Dec 24, 2005 10:28 am)

Replying to: newdoc2002 (Aug 30, 2005 12:11 pm) From what we know so far the 3rd row on the 2007 Santa Fe will be for children only. What I find most concerning is that from the pictures we have seen so far, the seat backs are right against the rear hatch. Does'nt seem to leave much protection for the 3rd row occupants.

Replying to: newdoc2002 (Aug 30, 2005 12:11 pm) Both will have seating for seven, but, unlike the CM, adults will fit nicely in the EN's third-row. The Santa Fe's rear-most right-hand seat is clearly visible in this photo -- it's a 60/40-split arrangement (the "40" shown), with height-adjustable seatback-integrated head restraints. Both sides should easily fold flat into the floor when not needed. In the above photo, they appear to be positioned very near to the rear glass, but the seatback angle seems to suggest that there may be a reclining adjustment of some sort.   It has now been confirmed that the EN will also be a unibody SUV, but it is unknown if the all-wheel-drivetrain will be front-, rear-, or symmetrically-"biased," or if the 3.8-liter V6 will be transverse- (like the Azera) or longitudinally-mounted (like the 2008 "BH" RWD luxury sedan).   Mike Replies to this message: hmma007 (Dec 24, 2005 10:28 am)
