Hyundai decided to offer a proper seven-seat MPV for the market and built it on the same platform as the Sonata and Santa Fe's first-generation generation.
With an increased demand for large family vehicles or VIP shuttles, Hyundai noticed that it could do something about it and created the Trajet. The word, itself, meant a route to follow, and the vehicle was adequate for that.
The car's front featured two horizontal headlights that resembled some of the U.S. minivans and a small, chromed grille. Its front bumper sported a design more appropriate to a sedan than to a minivan, but it worked for a family vehicle. Its tall greenhouse made it look like a large station wagon with regular, front-hinged doors. The carmaker installed a big liftgate at the back, which required some considerable room behind it to open it.
Hyundai installed three seat rows with room for up to eight occupants, but it also offered it a seven-seat in a 2-2-3 configuration. The middle row could tilt and tumble to make room for the last row passengers. At the front, the high-seating position offered a confident feeling. The curved SUV-like dashboard design featured a center stack where the carmaker installed the HVAC controls, the audio system, and the gear-stick.
Under the hood, Hyundai provided a choice of three engines ranged between 112 hp and 170 hp. The former was the diesel version, which was the preferred option for the Europeans, while on other markets, the Trajet was mostly sold with the 2.0-liter or the lively 2.7-liter V-6.
