The Hyundai Veracruz died and its brother the HYUNDAI SANTA-FE took over the mantle. However this car was larger and more spacious than the Santa FE and Nigerian loved it.
It’s not as powerful as the FJ Cruiser but it still holds its own in the committee of SUVs. The Veracruz was only available in two models during its six year run: the base GLS and the luxurious Limited, in Front Wheel Drive or All Wheel Drive configurations.
Autopsy report
Poor sales is the main reason it was continued.
6. HONDA ELEMENT (2002-2011)
This car was made popular in by the Nollywood industry because at a time they seem to be using it in most of their movies.
The car made its debut in 2002 and everyone fell in love with its SUICIDE DOORS. In 2007, the Honda Element won the Dogcars.com’s “Dog Car of the Year” award. In Nigeria it is seen as a ladies car. It is still a very nice car and it is still running strong on the Nigerian road.
Autopsy report
Honda executives blamed the Element’s demise on a variety of factors: competition from similar vehicles offered by other manufacturers, rivalry within the automaker’s own product line, and a dwindling market share for SUVs overall.
