  Great SUV - 2008 Hyundai Veracruz
  By StuCyn - December 31 - 6:06 am

  Fantastic vehicle for the money. We bought the Limited and love it. Best features are the proximity key and auto open/close lift gate. The navigation system is so so but the stereo system rocks. Great head room and very comfortable for long trips. Very quiet ride with very little road noise. We test drove several other SUV makes and found them overpriced for the same features and less warranty.

  Great Value!!! Nice ride! - 2008 Hyundai Veracruz
  By Kandue - June 5 - 10:03 am

  Have owned the Veracruz for 3 weeks now and am thoroughly pleased with my choice. Previously owned a 2004 Kia Sorento EX which was a good vehicle but wanted a smoother ride. Was considering the Santa Fe when the Veracruz caught my eye. After the test drive it was a done deal. The Veracruz is very luxurious and has a very quiet and smooth ride. Performance and handling is very good considering engine size and weight. The best part is the value...a lot of car for a small price.

  By Robert Nell - February 8 - 10:03 am

  I got my Veracruz in early April in Florida.I drove it back to Wisc. in May. Its ride was better than my Lexus and the gas mileage about the same. It has even more features than my Lexus and for about 10 grand less Its interior leather is on par with my Lexus I think it Quality is as good as Lexus Will be leaving to go to Wyoming and cant wait to drive it on another rode trip. WE LOVE IT

  Best bang for the buck - 2008 Hyundai Veracruz
  By ACD - November 5 - 11:13 am

  Started out at the 2008 CAS and compared all 7 passenger cars. Narrowed it down to Saturn Outlook and the Veracruz, Saturn lost. So far 9800 miles and not a single problem other than two broken seat belt clips from a clumsy kid. Handles snow great, even through 2 drifts. I have nothing bad to say about it, only thing that is annoying is the XM radio switches back to preview channel when you switch to AM/FM. MPG on highway tops 25 MPG, but winter has it down to 17.3 overall. Summer 19 MPG. Its my favorite car. My daily driver is a Toyota Camry Hybrid, so I get to have fun once in a while and drive this instead.

  pleasant surprise - 2008 Hyundai Veracruz
  By ncs - August 13 - 7:23 am

  From a previous Honda & Toyota minivan owner, our first months experience has been a pleasant surprise. We have found the vehicle responsive, comfortable and enjoyable to drive. Ours is a baseline model with no add on packages or upgrades, but it is quite comfortable for a family with 3 teenagers. Weve experienced better then the advertised gas mileage.

  Luxury Car at Bargain Price - 2008 Hyundai Veracruz
  By Vlad - July 16 - 2:16 pm

  This is my second review of Veracruz. With 1500 miles on it Im enjoying the vehicle more and more. Prior to car purchase, id thought "Well, this is not Pilot or Highlander or CX-9, but it costs about 6 grand less". What i realize now Veracruz is actually at least AS GOOD as any competition, has a superior warranty AND it will leave a bunch of green in your wallet. It doesnt have a big name yet, but a brand name is probably not worth this much money.

  Great Hyundai - 2008 Hyundai Veracruz
  By mrfred - June 12 - 7:46 am

  Got 10000 off, it was a new left over Rides very quietly, handles well, I was really shocked how well built it is, how much conveniences you get for the money(paid 29300, 22 miles on it), came with the navi system but unable to get rear dvd system with the nav (strange)

  veracruz is fantastic! - 2008 Hyundai Veracruz
  By Ken - January 28 - 3:26 pm

  I just purchased a 2008 Hyundai Veracruz Limited FWD and drove from Texas to Kansas. This vehicle is very nice, and comes equipped better than a Lexus RX350. It also has a better warranty than the Lexus. The third row seat fold flat and is big enough for two adults. I was going to buy the Nissan Murano but the third row plus a better deal than an equivalently equipped Murano helped me choose the Veracruz. The exterior and interior fit and finish is very nice with tight tolerances. Its quiet at highway speeds, six speed automatic transmission with manual mode, and loaded with just about every convenience you could want. Power liftgate, leather heated seats, heated side mirrors, sunroof, etc
