Love my Santa Fe XL
This is my 3rd Hyundai and my Santa Fe XL is by far my favorite. It handles so well on the road. My whole family feels safe in it when we take road trips. The third row seat comes in handy and we are not using it the extra trunk space has allowed me to load large items!

Good car. The dealership was good and my salesman, Patrick Yoder was good to work with. I am still in contact with him as I may trade every two years. I was not real pleased with my oil change as I waited several hours.

Very Satisfied
The car runs beautifully...has all the safety features we want and the warranty you offer causes us to return to Hyundai when looking for a car. Outside design is very attractive. Second row back seats are very comfortable with plenty of leg room.

Outstanding and reliable vehicle. A pleasure to drive!
Our Santa Fe is the Limited Ultimate Model which has seating for seven. This SUV looks, feels and drives solid! A comfortable and confident ride that handles like a high end sedan. The interior’s high end appointments are generous and the convenience features are great for all handheld devices. The HVAC system works very well, the audio system sounds great and the vehicle’s ride is very quiet. Our overall satisfaction is very high for this vehicle. Thank You!

Santa Fe XL Ultimate 2019
Due to a totaling wreck of our 2015 Santa Fe at end of 2019 we acquired a “new” 2019 XL. We needed the three row seating for four grandkids to sit. I knew the 2020’s did not have that feature. We rushed to buy a 2019. We found a “new” one with 6,230 miles at the Norman dealer. They refused to credit us with full mileage to get 100k miles per advertisement. So our warranty only covers 93,770 miles. We are pleased with it. The deal not so much. It gets decent mileage. Features are good too. My only real complaint is tires; they spin entirely too easily. On more than one occasion I’ve spun them trying to merge into traffic. A little more wear I’ll get them replaced with better than manufacturer oem units.
Recommended
Pros
Designated driver buttons are nice for us because I’m 6’-2” and she’s 5’-3” so we don’t wrestle the seat anymore.
The totaling wreckage late in 2019 of our 2015 is credited by her (sole occupant) for saving her life. Air bags deployed and wasn’t terribly sore afterwards. She was teeboned right behind driver front post by a Chevy suburban (in my opinion going too fast).

Cons
Tires are too hard and spin too easily.
Getting only 93,770 miles of warranty when it was purchased as “new” in Norman dealer.

2019 Hyundai Santa Fe XL
I do not find my car very comfortable. Number one, it is difficult getting in and out without totally rearranging the seat. The overall space in the front is extremely limited. The storage space wasn't designed well. It claims to have three row seating, well that is an exaggeration, since only a very young child could possibly get to the third row. There is also the matter of safety for getting a child out in an emergency.

Outstanding vehicle
I needed a larger vehicle without going into a truck or large SUV. This fit the bill. Sante Fe is well appointed and everything is within easy reach. For a mid priced vehicle you get items normally found in your luxury vehicles. Highly recommend if in the need or want of a new vehicle.

Review of my 2019 Santa Fe
This is my second Santa Fe.previous was a 2014 which my daughter has now. Family wise we’ve had 5 Hyundai vehicles and loved them all. I’m sure our next purchase will another a Hyundai vehicle. I would recommend Hyundai’s to other family members and friends.

Love my Santa Fe
Great transition from my minivan to an SUV!! Everyone in my family ride comfortably including the dogs! We are a sports family so the equipment all goes in the back +\- a teammate or two. Love the heated seats and huge moonroof- very fun!!

Great value, no regrets
This is a great car. We've had it for a year now and have had no issues. We also have a 2015 Hyundai sonata and other than using a bit of oil at 80000, its had no issues either.
We will continue to be a loyal hyundai customer.

Changing from a Kia to a Hyundai
Happy with all aspects of the vehicle. Seems to ride & perform well. Main reason for trade in was I wanted to upgrade to a 6cyl.engine equipped with towing capability, since I plan to tow a small trailer on occasion. My trade in vehicle was a Kia Sorento, which I had driven since new in 2014. Since the Hyundai is also Korean, the two vehicles were very similar in many ways, which made it easy for me to adapt to the Santa Fe.

2019 Hyundai Santa Fe XL
I like the styling, the technology, the warranty and the safety features of this vehicle. The V6 has ample power for good acceleration and passing. We would have purchased a Toyota Highlander or a Ford Explorer but the price difference was substantial therefore we chose this SUV. Consumer Reports had favorable reports on the expected reliability of this model and the past reliability of past Hyundai vehicles, I never purchase a car without first consulting Consumer Reports. As I previously stated, we've driven this vehicle for 1 year and over 22,000 miles so I expect no problems for quite a while. The proof will come later when the years and miles accrue.

Hyundai Santa Fe XL...Love it!
Love my Hyundai Santa Fe XL. Doesn't drive like an SUV, drives and handles like a Sonata. Great SUV!
I will definitely be going back to Glendora Hyundai for my next lease or purchase.
I always receive excellent service from this dealership.
Thank you Daniel for your excellent sales service.

I have owned two previous Hyundai Santa Fe’s. A 2008 and a 2011 and now my new 2019 Santa Fe XL. My favorite version yet!
Love my heated steering wheel, and the overall design. Classy SUV! I will predict my next vehicle will be a Hyundai!!

Better every time we drive it
First time Hyundai owner and my wife and I both never thought about a Hyundai till we finally decided to drive one for ourself. After driving the Santa Fe, continuing to look at other mid size SUV’s everyone recommended , we returned to the Santa Fe, purchased it and never regretted the decision. It’s exceeded our expectation every time drive it. Great value, game changing warranty and very stylish.

Our 2019 Sante Fe Limited Ultimate is an excellent SUV!
We bought our new 2019 Santa Fe in Fall of 2019. This vehicle has lived up to all expectations and continues to provide us with excellent transportation. The fit and finish on this vehicle is impressive and the solid feel of the vehicle allows us to ride in comfort and worry free!
Thanks very much to the Hyundai Corp. for building such a great vehicle. In our opinion, there is no other vehicle in this class that would satisfy us better than our Sante Fe has!
