I see a combination of the Terracan and Santa Fe in the headlights, grille air dam look like Honda design.

Dimensions:

Length/Width/Height – 4842/1971/1805 (Veracruz)

– 4695/1840/1850 (Fortuner)

This SUV is a giant monster!! Bigger than the Escape, CRV, Sorento.

Dimension wise it would be comparable to Land Cruiser, RAnge Rover, Fortuner, Pajero and other full-sized SUVs. Must be damn expensive too!

Better set my eyes on Fortuner, hope they do some face touch up here and there early next year.

When is Potong coming up with their SUV? next 3 years?

Hey Paul, Hyundai's second shot on 7 seater SUV is not Veracruz. It's the new Santa Fe. It's on sale for a few months already in Singapore. Very big and spacious. The design is very obviously influenced by the harrier but very stylishly done.

Check it out here….

this shit looks far better than the new cr-v! simplistic and clean-cut design.

Saw a TunaCan (Terracan) today in Ampang area, with a red plate.

I presume it looked really sleek during the concept stage, but "toned down" for embodiment and production? Perhaps only a handful of manufacturers are bold enough to produce and sell radical designs?

the front looks kinda cheap..like the present kia sorento..since its a 256hp 3.8L V6 or 3.0 turbodiesel it should be something like the audi Q4 or the new XC90.

I didn't know that the Hyundai Terracan was based on Mitsubishi Pajero underpinings. no wonder it resembles the pajero so much. I myself haven't seen it in malaysia, but in korea, u can see it quite often, but of course not as often as seeing kia sorento, ssangyong's rexton, and hyundai's own santa fe. anyways, i like this veracruz alot, u should take a look at the interior of the suv, it has class n it's really luxurious. they even say their design concept is sleek and sexy….

many korean suv trying to be car like with bow and tie trying to avoid ditch.

well suv at least got some angular part of its body and subtly curved for a MANly attitude . and wheel arch and skid plate look prominently as if ready to go wild in the mud (though not in reality …sayang it) , that what i call SPORT UTILITY vehical.

I'm not surprised the Terracan didn't sell very well – it's an ugly, stodgy SUV. This one seems like a vast improvement, though the proportions are a bit quirky.
