Now Hyundai is pushing design and value, maintaining segment-best pricing and tossing in a surprising array of features. With the Veracruz, there are plenty, even on the base-level version.

Start with safety, where the crossover has earned NHTSA five-star ratings in both front and side crash tests. It also garnered four stars for rollover, equal to the best in the SUV category. There are six airbags, including side-curtain protection for all three rows. Anti-lock brakes, traction control, and stability control are standard, as well, along with Brake Assist and Electronic Brake Force Distribution systems and active front headrests, which help reduce the risk of whiplash.

 

The Veracruz comes with an AM/FM/CD sound system, and tosses in XM satellite radio, with a trial subscription to the pay service. Oddly, while there’s an available plug for your MP3 player, it’s a pay-for option. There’s a second-row climate control, and you can heat or cool the center console. Second-row reading lamps are standard, along with a “conversation mirror” best used to keep an eye on the kids.

 

When you move up to the SE and topline Limited models, you get additional features, especially if you opt for the Ultimate Package, with power tilt/telescoping steering wheel, rain-sensing windshield wipers, keyless entry, and remote engine start.

 

What that means is that you can load up a Veracruz for a lot less than a stripped-down competitor. By Hyundai’s count, there’s a $3300 advantage over a comparably-equipped Highlander, for example.  MORE--
