The Hyundai Trajet (Hangul: 현대 트라제 ; pronounced as ''tra-jay'', derived from the French word, meaning "travel from one point to another"), ) is an 8-seater multi-purpose vehicle that was manufactured by Hyundai Motor Company between 1999 and 2008. The series was launched in 1999 with the 2.0 GSI models and a choice of gasoline, diesel or LPG power, followed by the limited edition SE 2.7 V6 in 2001. The Trajet models have three rows of seats. A variety of seating configurations allows for extra luggage space, and the seats can be removed to accommodate larger items. The front seats can rotate through 180 degrees to face the passengers at the back when the car is stationary, and the back seats can also be turned into tables, making a virtual office space or picnic area. Hyundai stated that Hyundai Starex is not the Trajet's successor, because the Grand Starex is not a minivan. The Kia-based Entourage is the closest thing to direct successor, but it is only available in a limited number of markets. The Trajet competed in the same market segment as Kia Carnival and Toyota Sienna. Standard equipment for the 2.0 GSI and 2.0 CRTD GSI (diesel version) included driver, passenger and side airbags, ABS with EBD, power steering, seat belt pre-tensioners, front and rear air conditioning, electric front and rear windows, stereo RDS radio/CD unit, double folding second and third row seats (second and third row seats are removable), and sliding outer seats on second row. The Trajet price range for the UK market started at £15,495 for the 2.0 GSI manual, rising to £18,345 for the 2.0 CRTD SE Automatic. With around £2,400 worth of extra equipment for only £1,000 more than the cost of the 2.0 GSI, however, the Trajet SE came with a DVD player, privacy glass, ''SmartNav'' satellite navigation, and reversing sensors as standard. It was available with gasoline or diesel engines, and manual or automatic transmissions, with prices starting at £16,495. With the launch of the SE 2.7 V6, all previous Trajet models were upgraded. The gasoline 2.0 GSI benefited from the CVVT engine previously seen in the Coupe, increasing power from 133 to 139 bhp (99 to 104 kW), while CO2 emissions fell from 223 g/km to 208 g/km. Fuel consumption was also improved — the combined figure (average consumption on town and highway driving) rose from 30.4 mpg to 32.5 mpg, imperial gallons (9.3 to 8.7 L/100 km). All Trajets from this point forward featured a third three point seat belt in the rear, which meant all passengers had the protection of a full seat belt. Additionally, the car came with a full five-year unlimited mileage warranty which was transferable between owners. ==External links== * http://www.testdriven.co.uk/news.cfm/hyundai_trajet_now_with_more_kit * http://www.parkers.co.uk/choosing/carreviews/printview.aspx?model_id=368 * http://www.hyundai-car.co.uk/choose/trajet/technical/ 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hyundai Trajet」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
