Test drove the the new St Fe 2.7 v6 2006 model yesterday by Invitation. I say it's excellent, impressed with the improvements made especially the sound insulation, the engine is so silent that I was sitting next to the car when engine idling and i couldn't tell the engine was running!. Nice seat configuration that allows the 2 back seats to fold down flat when you need cargo space.., rear aircond blowers added as well as the center pillars has air cond outlets as well... the car felts very steady and I couldnt hear the engine from driver's seat.

power was alittle disappointing as I felt my St Fe 2.4 4IL was much better in response to the pedal. The new model felt "draggy" but gear change was very smooth.. the 4wd was not permanent, engaged by button but automatically disengaged if speed is over 40km/h.

Overall impressive looks, comfort and definately a great car.
