Overview
The design of the Hyundai Terracan was originally previewed by the Hyundai Highland concept[1] and featured a chassis derived from the second generation Mitsubishi Pajero.[2] It was powered by one of three engines: a 2.9 liter diesel inline-four Hyundai J engine, a 2.5 liter diesel inline-four licensed from Mitsubishi (4D56), and a 3.5 liter petrol V6 Hyundai Sigma engine. The car's name derives from Tarascan, a Mesoamerican empire state located in west central Mexico. The Terracan was replaced by the Hyundai Veracruz.
