Manufacture Defect

My vehicle had a manufacturing defect of steering wheel vibration when driving the car over 50 mph since day 1 of buying my new car. Before buying the car I clarified with the dealership regarding the issue and they reassured me that the problem will be fixed. After 5 attempts of fixing the same problem they told me this is how this car drives. Which was ridiculous response from the dealership. Will never go back to that dealership again and buy santa fe car.

More Mini Van than SUV

Sometimes I feel like I should be going to the kids’ soccer games instead of transporting work supplies but it feels like a decent vehicle for the price. I’ve already had a recall and a couple of software updates, but I suppose that also means Hyundai fixes problems as they can. Not designed for tall people as the heads-up display does not accommodate (even after adjusting). Great leg room in the front and back seat though!

Buyer's Regret

Many features at first glance look good, reality is they are not practical and just plain dangerous in some situations.

Cheap Feeling and Very Clunk for a Hybrid

Initially liked the vehicle enough to buy it but after 1300 miles I got rid of it for a V6 Palisade. The Hybrid MPG claims 36 on the screen but in real world manual calcukation it was not getting more than 28-29. The transition from EV to Gas is also very clunky compared to a HEV From Honda of Toyota. I attributed it to the 6 speed transmission vs eCVT which seems like a conventional automatic is not a good match for a HEV for fuel savings. It left me feeling underpowered and waiting for it figure out what gear to go into feeling very "clunky." If you are looking at a HEV I would NOT get a Santa Fe. Personally would just get a Honda or Toyota HEV. Not to mention it depreciated ~ $9,000 in 2 months which does not happen on Toyota or Honda HEV For me I ended up going back to V6 since the vehicle did not preform well and turned me off from owning any other HEV for now.

Hyundai Santa Fe, What an Amazing Vehicle!

We drove a 2022 Hyundai Kona N-Line, another fantastic vehicle! But with 4 Grandkids, we needed a larger vehicle and the Santa Fe provided us the space we needed. We are currently on a multi-state trip. We are experiencing 35-45MPG! It’s an amazing vehicle, lots of resources, plenty of room an amazing vehicle.

My Beautiful Baby

This Santa Fe is cozy with its smooth ride. I love all the bells and whistles, especially the flat phone charging zone. It makes for a perfect space to set drink carriers when I grab dinner for the family. There is a ton of storage. I have the blue exterior with a white/grey interior and she is perdy!! Mighty fine. I named her Marina because she reminds me of the white sand beaches and dark blue ocean water. The seats are comfortable and contour to your body nicely. Favorite features are the self driving button and the lane assist. We love the heads up display so we can keep good posture and maintain the right speed. The side light on the heads up display showing a car approaching from the rear is a nice touch. We got this car to have these tools that allow me to keep driving that doesn’t impact my neck pain. With the features of the camera display on the dash for blind spots I’m able to limit my heads turns and still maintain safety.

Excellent all around SUV.

I am thoroughly impressed with the 2026 Santa Fe Hybrid. The ride comfort is outstanding, and the hybrid powertrain delivers a perfect balance of performance and efficiency for my daily driving and road trips. The interior design is both intuitive and premium, making every commute feel effortless. It is a well-engineered, reliable, and stylish SUV that offers exceptional value. I couldn’t be happier with my purchase

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.
