Hyundai has been slowly revealing the new Santa Fe before its official unveil at the 2012 New York Auto Show. Today a few more images come to us showing off more of the vehicles curves and features.

The new pictures seem to confirm a few of our suspicions from the latest brochure leak, like seating for seven. We can also see window shades for the interior passengers and vented seats for the driver and passenger.

Hyundai says that the new Santa Fe incorporates a new design concept called “Storm Edge,” which represents the evolution of its successful “Fluidic Sculpture” design language.

The new vehicle will be seen in the flesh at the 2012 New York Auto Show in April, and is expected to go on sale globally by the end of the year.

Check out more images released by Hyundai in the gallery below.

MINI has just released official details, photos and now pricing for the eagerly awaited all-new 2012 MINI Cooper Coupe. Available in three different trim levels, including the Cooper, Cooper S and John Cooper Works, base Coupe model starts at $22,000 and will come equipped with a 1.6-liter 4-cylinder engine producing 121-hp and 118 lb-ft of torque.

So if you already thought the Coupe was mostly similar to the hard-top hatchback model, you now have another reason, with the base price just $900 more than the traditional MINI.

The mid-level S model starts at $25,300 and gets a turbocharger delivering 181-hp and 177 lb-ft of torque with a special overboost function producing 192 lb-ft of torque.

The high-performance John Cooper Works Coupe starts at $31,900 and gets a turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder producing 208-hp and 192 lb-ft of torque with overboost allowing 207 lb-ft. This Coupe is capable of a 0-60 time in 6.1 seconds with a top speed of 149 mph. This makes the JCW Coupe, the  ”fastest-accelerating Mini ever (with) the highest top speed,” the company says.
