Definitely a Great Purchase

Purchasing the Santa Fe SEL was definitely a good buy. Has a lot of features that some will take time to learn, but defintely worth it for the average driver. Roomy, with plenty of storage room. My choice was the gas model and I average 22.5 mpg city and 31.6 highway. I actually purchased my after driving a neighbor's car on a 400 mile trip.

Took a while to like it

It took time to learn all of the technology, and I finally figured most of it out--it only took 4000 miles. I'm worried about winter driving because the tires seem a bit light on tread. I'm still wishing I would have gotten the Palisade--still struggling a bit with buyers remorse.

2026 Hyundai Sante Fe Review

I really like this vehicle. it is not the highest priced Sante Fe, but it has all the options I need.. I do notice that when I'm getting on the freeway and i hit the gas, 3rd gear seems to wind out for a while before switching gears.. Not sure if that's normal.

Nice vehicle!

Very happy with this vehicle, the ride is superior, gas mileage is better than average, and the interior is spacious and comfortable. Also love the body style and color it’s a eye catcher.

Nice ride!

I have the Calligraphy. So far so good! Comfortable ride with many bells and whistles. I receive a lot of compliments too. Waiting to see how it performs in the snow.

Buck for features ratio!

Our model is 2026 XRT Santa Fe. No issues, no recalls. Full gas, a little bit not so eco for fuel consumption but Average of 20-22mpg within city drives is not so bad at all. Comfort and driver-assist features such as Lane Following Assist is great! Not a full FSD but something to rely on during highway cruise. One thing I noticed that all Infotainment themes download from bluelink store is not available for this trim. I suggest this to be an option to be available for us Santa Fe XRT trims too especially that most themes are fun to see! Overall, one of our best decisions ever. ❤️

Purchased new in August. Still waiting for title.

Issues from day one of my August new car purchase. Tools weeks to get access to the MyHyundai AP due to my vin assigned to another user. No one knew what the problem was or how to fix it. Four weeks after purchase we call the dealership to ask when to expect the title. The receptionist asked the date of purchase and stated “we have 60 days.” I ask to speak to finance but was refused and told 60 days are allowed. Told to call back if it isn’t received in 60 days. With only a few days to go before required to pay sales tax and get tags we began calling the dealership. I was transferred to Aaron in finance. Per Aaron the paperwork had not been started but he would send an email to them. I ask for a phone number. Per Aaron there is not a phone number. I called again a few days later. Was refused transfer to Aaron so I left a request for call back with the receptionist. Never received a call back. Called a couple days later. Refused transfer to Aaron. Explained my problem again to the receptionist and assured her I knew she was following orders from Aaron which is bad customer service. I told her I want a letter explaining where my title is mailed to my home, I want a manager to call me. She said Aaron is the manager. At this point I just stated again I want letter overnighted to take to DMV and I want a return call with explanation. I received a letter stating my title is lost and replacement is ordered, That is the first I heard of that. No one has called us. We assume the issue originated from either an error or sake that fell through as evident by our vin previous registration on the MyHyundai AP. The lack of communication and concern is a major red flag for the service to expect from the dealership. I had high hopes but am quickly changing my mind.

Exceptional performance and comfort.

Only complaint is a minor one. Media, phone, dashboard, Bluetooth, maps can be a bit complicated when first using. Took me a good month of daily driving to feel comfortable.

Santa Fe Calligraphy

I’ve had my Santa Fe for 2.5 months and it’s been great! Took a long road trip to NY and back no issues at all!
