All of those links are horrible. Most lead to a chinese language site and the only tolerable one is the view of the passenger side dashboard.

To be honest, I am not impressed with the pricing of the new Santa Fe. Technically, it doesn't go up against the Rav 4, but against the Highlander, and while it does seem like a good value against the Highlander, lets not forget how old and dated the current Highlander is. The new Highlander will likely be a much more value-laden vehicle.

The Rav 4 V6 is great value compared to even the new Sante Fe, even if the Santa Fe is bigger.

They'll probably start with a $1000 incentive right off the bat.

Why don't they just price the vehicles with a MSRP that is $1000 less instead? Anyone know the rationale for this?

i dont know if it is bigger than US Rav4... it has barely bigger/usable interior than my european Rav4, and actually smaller trunk, which means US Rav4 should have seriously bigger interior...

Tucson is really small compared to those two, especially the trunk which has very high load floor.

it looks pretty good though, best looking hyundai ever. Interior is well built, although very korean (even though much less than before).
