HYUNDAI ix55 / Veracruz 2009 - Present
The 2009 ix55 or Veracruz for some countries, is the largest Hyundai on the market. Built on a Santa Fe platform, the 2009 Veracruz features three seat rows for seven people. An aggressive exterior, with a rear spoiler, wraparound three-tiered headlights, and plenty of chrome accents make the 2009 Veracruz look and act more refined than its price indicates. Owners and critics agree that its power plant and suspension deliver excellent performance and easy handling. Its roomy cabin consists of high-quality materials and offers a generally quiet ride, though some drivers mention annoying tire and suspension noise.
