The 2008 Hyundai Entourage minivan comes in two well-equipped trim levels
Edmunds

TheCarConnection.com notes that the 2008 Hyundai Entourage has seen some of its former options turned into standard equipment.

Edmunds reports "the 2008 Hyundai Entourage minivan comes in two well-equipped trim levels." Automotive.com tells us that "last year's mid-level 2008 Hyundai SE has been dropped in favor of more generous option packages for the base-level GLS; while this year's Limited comes with more standard features and fewer options," citing a $200 price drop as well. Cars.com reveals that the base Hyundai Entourage 2008 "comes with many of the most important features, including high-value equipment like six airbags and an electronic stability system," and that "more standard features come on the 2008 Hyundai SE and Limited versions, which are competitive with similarly priced competitors."

Standard equipment includes three-zone manual air conditioning; power windows, door locks, and remote keyless entry; cloth seats; tilt steering; cruise control; 172-watt AM/FM/CD audio with six speakers; front wiper deicer; dual vanity mirrors; roof-rack side rails; hideaway third-row seat; and 16-inch steel wheels with full covers.

Edmunds says Hyundai Entourage 2008 "trim options include an Ultimate Package, which gets you a sunroof, a rear-seat entertainment system, a power front passenger seat, power-adjustable foot pedals, an auto-dimming rearview mirror and a driver seat memory system." Automotive.com reports that "the Hyundai Entourage 2008 Limited model adds the rear-seat entertainment system; plus tilt/slide glass sunroof; power front passenger seat; power adjustable foot pedals; integrated memory system for the driver's seat, outside mirrors, and foot pedals; and an auto-dimming rearview mirror with HomeLink." Bluetooth is a new option for 2008.

Conclusion

The 2008 Hyundai Entourage is generously equipped for the price, though newer features like in-car TV and navigation systems are not offered.

Why should I also consider these? X

There aren't many minivans, crossovers, or SUVs that drive as well as the sporty Mazda 5.

The 2008 Hyundai Entourage is larger than the Mazda, and it drives that way.

If you don't need the extra room, then the Mazda 5 is worth a test drive.
