AWD will carry most of features. FWD will be very basic . Possible AWD and FWD difference in price might be around 1.5 to 2 million.. again a rumor as far as price.
A close contact of mine owns a Hyundai dealership and was at factory for last 2 days. I asked him for pricing and I could not extract anything from him beside the major price gap will be there between variants
So two trims are confirmed
Well nothing is official as of now. We expect two variants
Well this awd and fwd variants should not be two different variants like in Tucson, we all know awd consumed more fuel, what if someone want fully loaded features/options but in fwd only.
makes ultimate sense.
FWD headlights will be possibly ; Dual reflectors with typical amber turn signal and high beam reflector .
AWD headlightsThere will T-shaped LED DRL's which also get the sequential turn signal, which changes the upper portion of DRL in to amber. dual projector. also gets slim sub-low beam LED's for improved lighting on front
watch sequence for AWD in below video
AWD will be full featured vehicle. FWD will be entry level and less equipped. FWD might not have even a power tailgate.
Will the car have adaptive cruise?Pakwheels blog (your blog) said "not yet confirmed"
Yes I know tht, I had Sportage awd coz of the full options otherwise driving awd in Khi was completely useless for us and also giving 7-8km/L fuel average wheras Sportage fwd do 9+average within Khi drive. My point was these awd/fwd variants shud not made two different variants base on awd being fully loaded and fwd being base model.
Also there is a news that we might not see the adaptive cruise control (Smart Cruise control with stop and go as per Hyundai ) on any of the variants. In other words just the simple cruise control.
Not sure if this information is true.
yes, in overseas markets you can get a basic model with AWD . Anyways for us AWD will be featured.
In case of proton X70, the FWD is more featured and reason was AWD was less featured in Malaysia because of less demands.
yes as of now no confirmation. I just made a comment above #90
My contact will have the display units for his showroom tonight . Strictly instructed to keep it under cover by Nishat. Lets see if we can get more information.
Special service bays at Hyundai showrooms service areas are also established for hybrid.
No adaptive cruise.....lol seriously.
3RD ROW details as I could dig are as follows.
The Sorento dimensions are from USDM, V6 FWD.Santa FE is from Australia market Turbo Hybrid AWD (same as we are getting )
SORENTO

In brief, if above is accurate THEN 3rd row dimensions Santa FE/ Sorento
LEG 746mm/ 805SHOULDER 1344mm / 1341mmHIP 1081mm / 1052mm

Good luck
Thanks for the info, actually I wanted to compare 3rd row Fortuner seats space vs Santa Fe.
You MIGHT not see ac vents in the third row on the FWD version. Again nothing confirmed yet.
