My Santa Fe Hybrid is awesome

I love this vehicle. My only complaint is I had to replace the hybrid drive belt after only 18 months. This belt is not covered by the warranty. Cost $500.

Meh

I’ve owned several Hyundai’s including 3 Sant- Fe’s. I traded in my 2024 Sante Fe Caligrahpy model because of transmission issues for a 2025 Sante Fe Hybrid Caligrahpy model because the hybrid has a torque converter transmission. However after a few months of ownership I had an issue with the battery/charging system which the dealership troubleshooted and found no issues but now I always am worried about traveling and being stranded. Also I had to trade in my Copper colored Santa Fe for a black Hybrid because you guys don’t offer the hybrid in the matted paint colors. Also for a $55K+ vehicle at least add a donut spare tire for emergencies and quit being cheap

Dangerous vehicle!

Car goes into limp mode. Engine shuts off, battery limits car to 20 mph. No codes, can't be fixed. Dealer reports multiple customers with this issue. I've been urged not to drive the car.

A pleasure to drive

We have been very happy with the comfort and drive of this car. We appreciate all the extra features you are able to get for a much lower price than similar cars in this class and use most of them. We always choose this car for long drives as the seats are extremely comfortable. For around town, it is peppy and fun. I love the boxy appearance and we also chose it for the hybrid option, which definitely improves the overall milage signficantly. I would buy it again, though they definitely need to improve some aspects of car including: the paint scratches more easily than any other car I have had, the navigation platform of the touch screen needs better usability, the back seats (captain's chairs) could be easier to move forward when using the third row, the fingerprint login often needs multiple tries to read correctly.
