  • Hyundai Turns Out A Winner - 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe
    By -

    The restyling of the vehicle is just the beginning of how incredible this vehicle is. Its very nice on the outside and (the Limited trim) comes with all the options a driver would really need for comfort, sophistication, pleasure and fun. The standard safety features (Electronic Stability Control, Traction Control System, ABS, air bags all around, Tire Pressure Monitoring System) are included in each level trim unlike other manufacturers who will often charge extra for such safety features. There are too many other standard features to list and any consumer would be surprised to see what the list is comprised of (available on the hyundaiusa.com website). Worth a look if not a purchase.

  • Great Value... but -- - 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe

    Im not sure about long trips due to the seats. Theyre nice with the heated leather, but you can feel the short bottoms/lack of thigh support. It doesnt seem like much until you make a long drive and you go numb! Cool how the rear seats have adjustable recline, though. Nice storage section under rear cargo area. Excellent ride quietness. You can have a regular conversation in this thing w/o raising your voice! Traded in an Elantra GT, so Im used to the blue dash lighting. The projector type headlights make for an "upscale" feel.

  • Best Value for the Dollar - 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe
    By -

    I picked up the FWD drive version of this great car after looking at the Saturn VUE and Toyota RAV4. For all the standard features the other two couldnt compare. The VUE didnt have most of the saftety features available, and while the RAV4 did the price was substantially more. Even though we live in a snow-belt area, weve always been happy with our FWD sedan so we stuck with the FWD for our CUV mostly to save on fuel. The snow has fallen and, despite my best efforts, I cant get the FWD to do any sliding or slippping - and thats with the stock All-Seasons! Overall - this car is an excellent value for the money!

    This is a beautiful vehicle inside and out. The fit and trim inside is very good and the leather quality is awesome. If Hyundai can get people to take a test drive, they will have no problem selling as many as they can make-Drive it and you will buy it!

  • One year of ownership - 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe

    Weve owned the Santa Fe for just over a year. We have had ZERO issues. Very happy overall with this vehicle. I was a little concerned when we bought the vehicle, as we had always owned Toyotas/Hondas. If youre contemplating a Santa Fe, I would highly recommend this vehicle.

  • Great SUV - 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe

    I love my new 07 Santa Fe handles great. Very smooth ride and enough room inside for me and my family

  • Great, Inexpensive, Car! - 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe
    By -

    We looked at the Toyota Rav4, GMC Envoy, and Honda Pilot, and this is the best of all of those. There are so many thoughtful features in it that Ive been discovering for the past 2 weeks. It has lighted cup holders when your head lights are on, a gasoline sensor so the air in the cabin doesnt have gas in it, and the Mp3 capibilities. The ride is a bit rough, but the leather seats comphensate for that. Getting leather at 26,400$ is a great buy! The wheels may cost a lot of money to replace though. This Santa Fe blows its older model away with better looks, better interior, and better fit and finish. (One word of caution: The limited AWD w/ 5 seats only is very rare, so look around)

  • Wow, Hyundai has a Winner - 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe
    By -

    nearing 700 miles in 3 weeks. Its great, surpasses my expectations. Just as a frame of reference, our other car is a 2007 Avalon Limited. The Santa Fe is very nearly as quiet!!! Santa Fe steering is quicker ratio, thus feels very nimble, fun to drive, Very easy to park. All controls intuitive. Ride is reaonably smooth, only sign. bumps register (but remember Im spoiled by the Avalon). COmpared to many other SUVs Ive riden in, the Santa Fe is genuinely most car like in ride. Drags our 2700# boat up the ramps easily, way easier than our former car. Back storage/room is very practical. We love it. Dont buy anything until youve tested a Santa Fe.

  • this is my 2nd Santa Fe & I love it! - 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe
    By -

    I wish the DVD controls were located somewhere else.they get kicked alot. the light interior looks nice,but is not kid-friendly.I really love my Santa Fe.The 07 is so much more luxurious than my previous 01.I like my Santa Fe better than my husbands BMW 325i. We always take my Santa Fe on roadtrips, not the BMW. I love the space, the drive, the warranty, the look & I feel smart driving it. Its a good bang for the buck! Theres only 1 Santa Fe to choose: Limited & fully loaded. i didnt like the bare bones models. Bite the bullet & spend the $32K for the top of the line Santa Fe.

  • Close to perfect - 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe
    By -

    I shopped extensively for a midsize SUV. I needed three rows of seats and AWD, but wanted a compact package, decent mileage, and a modest price. I almost bought a RAV4 limited, and boy am I glad I decided to test drive a Santa Fe first! For the money, you get a LOT more space and features in the Santa Fe. I had a hard time finding a Limited with touring pkg (3 rows) and without the sunroof, but I finally did and paid $28,000 even (after rebate). So far, my only complaints are the lack of an AUX input on the stereo (for an ipod), and only adequate FM radio reception. It drives great and looks great. The map and dome lights on mine come on when the doors open, contrary to some comments below.
