2001-2007 Hyundai Terracan review
There is nothing quite like a good trip away into the great outdoors. And what better way to get there than in Hyundai's new Terracan? Built superbly, the Hyundai Terracan has the goods to tackle some of the toughest off-road terrain. With the chassis constructed from heavy-duty gauge steel, this is a fair-dinkum off-roader. The engine power under normal bitumen conditions is fed to the big Hyundai Terracan's rear wheels. A large four wheel drive, in my ideal world, should have the capacity to be driven via the back wheels alone because the fuel savings that are gained as a result are very beneficial.
Head up to the ski field and four wheel drive can be selected in high ratio to cope with any slippery and treacherous road conditions. Selecting four wheel drive in the Hyundai Terracan is easy with an electronic shift transfer function enabling 2-high to slip into 4-high smoothly at speeds up to 80 kph. For those of you who like to get right off the road and into the bush, the Hyundai Terracan will gladly take you there. Drop in and out of slippery ruts and over rocky river beds with ease as the 4-low option offers you loads of grab and grip to pull you over the roughest of outback terrain. The Hyundai Terracan is a ferociously competent vehicle, with the limited slip differential transferring as much torque to the wheel with the greatest traction. This machine is fantastic and a great pleasure to drive on and off the road and has entry and departure angles along with good ground clearance as is expected in a four wheel drive of this calibre. Ride on road is superb.Model Range:
