When Hyundai teased the debut 2013 Santa Fe on the ramp to build up some buzz before the cross over’s New York auto show last week, it never realized that the show would turn out into a damp squib.

After a week, couple of details on the Hyundai’s all new latest Santa Fe leaked on the net when one of the Korean based blog laid its hands on a couple of shots of the official Santa Fe’s 2013 Korean-language brochure.

The leaked Hyundai Santa Fe 2013 Korean brochure isn’t complete but the enough details printed on it shows us indeed some of the new technology and family-friendly features coming to Hyundai’s Highlander and Pilot fighter models. The three-row Santa Fe seating arrangements appear to get more spacious and upscale-looking. The brochure shows that brown leather interior with a second row seats which are capable of sliding fore and aft, retractable window shades, as well as heated and cooled seating. The leaked brochure also show that the 2013 Santa Fe will have Hyundai’s BlueLink system, and safety features like a Lane Departure Warning system and a driver’s knee airbag which comes as an option.

It is not yet clear what power plants will be used in the U.S. specified Santa Fe. The brochure also reveals what appears to be a naturally aspirated I-4. Ever since the Santa Fe is built on the Sonata’s architecture, the crossover V-6 engines altogether and is expected for a turbocharged I-4.

All eyes are on the 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe as it gets closer to the crossover’s New York debut.
