Very practical car with excellent tech and a good price point!

Overall very happy with this car. Interior is laid out very practically and has a very good fit and finish. I love tech and this has an excellent array of tech / features. The hybrid powetrain is extremely smooth with a decent amount of pep to it for being a smaller size. Gas milage has been ok for me averaging 30mpg for the first 4k.

Loved it, but….

I love most things about this car, except one thing. The seats were too narrow for my hips and sadly, I had to trade it back six weeks after buying it.

2026 Santa Fe hybrid

Car handles well, little body roll and fun to drive. Upon delivery had issue with washer reservoir emptying. Also intermittent noise from steering column (sounds like chipmunks). Spoke with service, didn’t have service bulletin regarding noise, since intermittent hard to diagnose. Wish driver seat went all the way back when exiting no matter who’s driver. Goes back but depends on driver. After wife drives still to close for easy entry until car started. Would like to be able to set key fob to individual driver. Also smaller fob. Had to settle on purchase. No cars available for what wanted, even if willing to wait months. Wanted calligraphy got limited.

I’d like the driver-side door armrest on the left and the armrest on the right to be at the same level.”

Smooth Ride

I love my new Santa Fe. Everyone that rides with me talks about how smooth it is. I love how it has plenty of room like a larger SUV and handles like a sedan.

Good Car, Bad Tires and Annoying Features

I bought the Limited version of the Hyundai Santa Fe at the end of November 2025. Overall, I like the car—it’s comfortable, looks great, and drives well. Unfortunately, the tire quality has been very disappointing. After only about 1,000 miles, by mid-February 2026, two tires on the left side developed bubbles on the sidewalls. This is very concerning for such a new vehicle. The dealer and tire manufacturer both refused to cover the issue, so I had to replace all four tires out of pocket, which was an unexpected expense. After doing some research, I found that other Santa Fe owners have reported similar problems with the original tires, so this doesn’t seem like an isolated case. I still like the car, but this issue—and the lack of support—definitely hurt my overall experience. I’d recommend keeping a close eye on the tires or considering replacing them early.

My wife took my car!!!

I wanted a new hybrid to drive back and forth to work. My wife took it and I’m driving her (now old) non hybrid vehicle. LOL she did warn me before the purchase this might happen. She loves the car.

happy Hyundai owner

No problems, except the car start battery ran down after one week and I had to charge the battery before the car would start and the doors would open or lock. There have been no problems since.

Our 2026 Santa Fe Hybrid Review

Wow- small engine but very quick acceleration. Very quiet with little road noise. Very comfortable interior and comfortably holds 7. The electronics are amazing and is very close to being self driving. Overall a great road trip or in city car, camera systems are outstanding and parking is very easy. Highly recommended for everyone. Dual mag charging station is an absolute must!! Once you have it you can’t live without it.

Defective Air flap

Two months after purchase, the check engine light came on for defective air intake flap, dealer refuse to fix it under warranty because of invisible scratch only seen by their by technician. A month later, right fender molden detached by itself while I was driving on highway. Last week, a safety recall, It looks like this vehicle is poorly made. not a good experience so far

Santa Fe Hybrid

Is overall just a little better than previously owned similar model. Some aspects are more refined and better but others do require better design and has some quirks that could be improved.

After 4 months...

My Santa Fe has everything I wanted and quite a bit I didn't need. The NUMEROUS touch screen controls are a minor distraction, taking some time to locate when needed. It came equipped with 2 roof cross bars (side to side) in addition to the fore and aft bars. One of the end caps of the cross bars is missing, having fallen off or been removed by someone whose end cap had also gone missing, a bit disappointing in either case. Gas mileage has been excellent, sometimes getting over 42 mpg on my 19 mile commute to and from the golf course. I wish the front side windows had the same tint as do the rear windows, something I may have done in the future. The sensation of the car trying to steer itself is an unusual feeling... I think I overpaid for this car, I should have shopped a little longer, my problem, not the car's . When starting the engine, you need only push the start button once and quickly. Pushing and holding, like you're waiting to hear the engine, locks up the system, taking some time to reboot.
