Couldn't find any topic about this car.. It will be out probably next year..

So Hyundai ix35.. It will have 2.0 R-diesel engine with 184 hp and 2.0 theta gasoline engine with 166 hp. The diesel meets Euro 5 emission standards.. Both engines will be available with 6-speed automat. gearbox - definitely manual to.. It has systems like Vehicle Dynamic Control, Downhill Brake Control, Hill-Start Assist Control and camera when reversing, better materials..). It's 85 mm longer than Tucson, 30 mm lower, 10mm longer wheelbase..

Here are the pics of how it looks like

To be honest, I think it looks hideous! Wheels look far too small for the body depth and it's too much 'overstyled'.
The current Tuscon is a much better looker and the one I'd still go for.

Fair cop, but this one has most of the i30 underpinnings at least.

I didn't notice the wheel thing... BUT NOW I DO.
Needs some bigger wheels for sure.
Doh !  I so wanted that too !

These wheels look OK to me.. It's just the fact, the car is a bit "fat"  8)

That's a bit scary too Dazz, there are shots of the brand new Kia Sorrento around with the same colour schemes already available !
Not a trend I hope.

It's obviously some kind of trend of Hyundai/Kia group.. Last day I went to Hyundai and checked out ix55 again.. They only had the ones that are red/brown inside..

This one.. http://www.avto.net/_AVTO/ad.asp?ID=2601135&show=1

Very Lexus-like!  

I wonder if the tailgate has the Lexus "Remote Open / Close" feature?
