There's a third row seat that allows for extra passengers, but also folds down easily to create lots of cargo space.
I've only had the car for a few months, but I am very pleased with its performance, space, and driveability. It's a smooth ride and there is plenty of room for me and my husband, my 2 children, and my dogs!

The interior offers lots of legroom and comfortably fits 8 people.
Like 3rd row seat, roomy interior, large cargo area, and fold-down seat. Like the quiet ride and reliability. Dislike the lack of backup camera.

An investment for the family!
The mileage is pretty good to fill up an empty tank it's about $35 tops and that gives you about 330 miles. It is great for families. But I would. Suggest seat covers because the seats stain rather easily. I have had this car for about 10 years and the car has around 200,000 miles on it and it still runs great but the other day I did have to replace the battery. The cause as to why is unknown but it could just be that it is been 10 years. I have had to replace a few things here and there but besides that it is an great buy and would definitely recommend it!

Very reliable SUV. You will not regret your choice if you pick a veracruz.
The only issue I had with my veracruz was it needing a new motor. Otherwise, it is been very dependable, and fits all my needs. I love the 3rd row and having ample space to fit my children. It drives like a beast, is reliable and very comfortable. It is also good on gas.

Hyundai veracruz, a great SUV to own.
First of all I love my vehicle. It has lots of room. I have taken trips in it and it was great. Just driving it is relaxing. It drives really smooth. Anyone that drives it love it. The ac in it is really great. It will freeze you out. It is also really good on gas and it is low maintenance. I bought it new and I have not had one minute of trouble with it. If you drove it you'd love it too. I have 2 row seating and there is plenty of room in the 3rd row. There is plenty of feet room also. One of the nice things is there is a place to plug in your cable for your phone in the rear seating. Also there is lots of room to store things in the very back even with the 3rd seat up. I have even moved a 5 shelf bookcase in it before. The seats behind the front ones let's down so easy letting you store anything. The outside of my vehicle looks sharp also. My vehicle is white and I love it. I have seen lots of vehicles that looks like mine but the veracruz just sticks out being a little sharper. To drive it is to love it! Do not take my word on it go out today and drive one, just remember to take your checkbook you will not want to come home without one.

Plenty. Of room for 7 adults.
My car seats 7 and that space has come in handy a number of times. Also has towing capacity to tow my bass boat and has been extremely reliable.

The one most important thing is I feel safe driving it.
My Veracruz is great. I have 3 grown kids and everyone fits well into it. The 3rd seat is spacious. Plenty of cargo room too.
accountCircle Misti O
I LOVE this vehicle! I'm so sad that they stopped making it. It's not too big, great amount of legroom in the back, seats are comfortable.
It's comfortable in any seat. It's great to take out of town or for everyday use.

It’s 15 years old & repairs are costly
In the last year i’ve had to replace my entire front end, my back brakes including calipers, upcoming is rear shocks, and now this morning I turn my car on to the sound of massive knocking, rough idling. Turned my heat off that settled it down but as soon as I turn the heat back on! The engine timing picks up,....wth is going on here,.... I don’t use regular gas but the pumps having been running out of premium gas due to recent blockades,... Help i’m Running out of money but I love my car

It has good gas mileage, and doesn't take alot to fill it up.
It's a good car, it's good on gas and is a safe car to drive. I don't like that it's a front wheel drive but it gets me to where I am going and back. The color is light blue so it's easy to clean. My kids love it because it has 3 row seats. The car is a limited car so it's kind of hard to get parts when something messes up.

It comfortably seats 7 people.
I love that it's dependable, rides great, gets decent mileage, is in great condition, has a nice stereo, is fully loaded. The two things I don't like is that it does not have bluetooth and is only front wheel drive, not 4x4

It is a very good vehicle! It has a 3rd row, sunroof, and auto lights in it. Very roomy for me and my 3 kids, 2 of which are still in car seats with a 5 point harness.
