Overview & Reviews
One of Hyundai's longest-running nameplates, the Santa Fe is a car-based crossover SUV aimed at buyers seeking the elevated ride height and useful cargo area of a traditional utility vehicle in an easy-to-drive package. Modern versions of the Hyundai Santa Fe are midsize with three rows of seating, quality cabin furnishings and user-friendly tech features. Whether you're shopping for a new or used Santa Fe, value is a big part of its appeal. The standard equipment list is generous, as is Hyundai's warranty coverage.
Earlier versions of the Hyundai Santa Fe range from compact to midsize in dimensions and have seating for five passengers. The 2007 and later models are a big step up in styling, performance and interior space, and they're worth considering if you're shopping for a used midsize crossover. Hyundai has since subdivided the Santa Fe line into two models: the two-row Santa Fe Sport and the three-row Santa Fe. The latter is more luxurious than its predecessors, offering premium styling and plenty of power.

Defective transmissions and poor ride - 2010 Hyundai Santa Fe
By dbqfan - October 5 - 2:37 pmI have had the transmission replaced twice in my 2010 Santa Fe. The new transmission has the same problems and Hyundai will not fix it. They have to "replicate" the problem which is there way of not fixing it. I have never had a car with this many problems in 50 years of buying cars. The dealer is just as bad as Hyundai. The vehicle has many squeaks and rattles which shows poor build quality. The GPS unit is useless in cold weather as you can not see the screen. This is the last non American car I will buy. Poor quality as the floor carpet is just cardboard covered with a poor quality fuzzy material.

2007 Santa Fe AWD GLS 2.7L engine - 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe
By jsfish100 - September 21 - 8:23 pmWith all the extras you get that other SUV manufactures charge extra for, you can not beat the price of the Santa Fe. Recommend anyone interested in a SUV to check it out.

Intelligent Choice - 2002 Hyundai Santa Fe
By Happy Cruiser - September 20 - 10:00 amJust purchased my first new car. It has been only a week but I am already in love with my new Santa Fe. Ive been looking at Honda CRV and Toyota RAV4, but decided to go with Hyundai Santa Fe, biggest bang for a buck. Warranty is awesome, that was another decision factor. Lots of standard features, the only options I took are ABS with Traction Control.

Nervous to Estatic - 2002 Hyundai Santa Fe
By Chris F - September 20 - 10:00 amI just bought my Santa Fe with the idea of going cross country with it. I drove the Santa Fe 3100 mile through the heat, rain, mountains and sitting in traffic. I have heard alot of people complain about the horse power. The Santa Fe performed well in passing and merging and when I needed her to get up a hill she took it with out a problem. Who needs a racing SUV anyway? Overall I highly recommend this vehicle to anyone whether you are cost conscience or not. We now have 5,200 miles and she still runs like a dream. I hope she stays that way but if she doesnt there is the warranty.

Excellent Value - 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe
By Paul Hickey - September 17 - 3:16 amWere just over 3000 miles into our new Santa Fe which we bought after a 5 minute test drive having read the reviews on line. Wow what a motor, my wife has moved from Mercedes Benz to Hyundai and no wonder what a super product. We test drove the new 2008 C Class today just to compare the two brands. The Santa Fe 3.3ltr Ltd edition in Black with Cream Leather interior and the high driving position wins hands down. We had a spin in the 2.7 litre version which also impressed however the bigger engine makes a massive difference to the overall driving experience. For those of you lucky enough to own the new Santa Fe happy motoring for those of you who are still sitting on the fence enjoy the view

The Best Car For The Value - 2002 Hyundai Santa Fe
By danco - September 11 - 10:00 amOutstanding reliability. A/C unit had to replaced along with the AM/FM radio. Other than that, mechanicaly it is outstanding and a pleasure to drive. Excellent bumper to bumper warranty. Low maintenance other than 60k timing belt replacement costs. Id buy another when Im ready.

I love my Santa Fe - 2004 Hyundai Santa Fe
By longing4nc - September 11 - 10:00 amI had seen the Santa Fe and was very impressed with the body style and the over all appeareance of the vehicle. I test drove several other vehicles before coming to hyundai. Once I took a test drive I was sold. This vehicle handles very well on the road especially on long trips. It is roomy and very comfortable. I find that I dont get as tired driving with the Santa fe as I did with my old vehicle. I would recommend this vehicle to anyone that is looking for a great vehicle.

Good choice - 2004 Hyundai Santa Fe
By cshaw - September 11 - 10:00 amAfter months of exhaustive car research, we chose the Santa Fe. It has the safety features I want and the warranty cant be beat. The engine has plenty of torque and is quite peppy with the manual transmission. We got a great price and they knocked $500 off the price of the extended warranty. Ride is pretty smooth. Cabin is well laid out.
