The leather-wrapped hand-brake and rubber cup-grips for the front-seat beverage retainers are out -- a foot pedal-type parking brake and spring-loaded cupholders are in. Mike |

Any word on when and how much? Those unmasked shots look great! Hyundai really has it going on!

Replying to: bohemus (Jul 19, 2005 4:53 am) Cost: nothing yet (official pricing probably won't be released until at least February), but I figure from $24,000-$27,000, depending on trim level and options. We'll see.... Mike

Replying to: danf1 (Jul 19, 2005 8:28 am) So I guess I'll go ahead and revise my estimates to between $24,499 (assuming a GL 3.3-liter 5-seater as the base model) and $29,999 (for an LX AWD NAVI with a Premium Sports Package). Mike

I can't see why Hyundai wouldn't offer 3 rows standard, unless they want to undercut the competition by a wide amount in the GL trim. From my knowledge, doesn't the Pilot have it standard?

Replying to: sandpaper (Aug 01, 2005 10:04 pm) Yes -- as do the Mazda CX-7, Nissan Pathfinder, Mitsubishi Montero, and Suzuki XL-7. On the other hand, the Toyota Highlander, Subaru B9 Tribeca, Buick Rendezvous, and Ford Explorer don't; while the Mitsubishi Endeavor, Nissan Murano, Pontiac Aztek, Chevrolet Equinox|Saturn Vue V6|Pontiac Torrent, and regular-length Chevrolet TrailBlazer do not offer 3rd rows at all. Because of this and undercutting factor (as you pointed out), there was some ambiguity concerning how the Santa Fe would be equipped. Mike |

Replying to: mike_belknap (Jul 16, 2005 9:31 pm) Toyota is scrambling to respond to this safety standardization initiative from Hyundai and Honda. The racked their brains and viola - "the Star safety system" is their new marketing slogan. Where was this "Star" system two years ago? Toyota had the audacity to bundle safety features in "packages". Want side air-bags? Buy package # 5. If you are in the market for a SUV, I suggest you wait till the 2007 Santa Fe goes on sale. You will not be disappointed. And yes, dont insult your intelligence by falling for the "Star" marketing system. |

As far as we can see from the pictures, the third row occupants have the back of their head inches from the rear window. Could be nasty in a rear end collision. The rest of the vehicle looks light years ahead of the current Santa-Fe however. |
