Reliable and Safe
I had to adjust to the Santa Fe. I bought it having given my former car, a Suzuki to "the kids". It was a cute 4 wheel drive small SUV. When I hit the gas, I knew I was in a six cylinder car. My Santa Fe's ride is so smooth, I'm not aware of the speed change and actually need to pay attention to the speedometer-a good thing. We comfortably travel long distances in this car with plenty of room for luggage and coolers of food and drink. I keep up with my maintenance and therefore hit the road with peace of mind, something that I didn't always have with my former car. I had one accident however, hit at both ends due to sheer ice. I had the least amount of damage compared to the car I hit and the car that hit me. Knowing that my car does well in such an accident gives me great peace of mind.
