Hyundai Veracruz
A relative unknown, the Veracruz is the Korean manufacturer Hyundai’s most imposing vehicle. Eclipsed somewhat by the likes of the Chevrolet Traverse, Honda Pilot and Toyota Highlander, this vehicle can transport seven passengers comfortably. There’s but one engine and one transmission: a 3.8-litre V6 and a six-speed automatic. The base version gets front-wheel drive while the other version has all-wheel drive. Equipment wise, this is one of the most opulent in this category.
