2026 Hyundai Sante Fe Review

Only negative is the screen to control heat/air conditioning fan requires driver to take eyes off of road to find it, if sun is shining even worse.

We love our Sante Fe!!!

We have had the Santa Fe for 2 1/2 months and absolutely love it! It’s extremely roomy and comfortable. It drives smoothly and handles well. We are extremely happy with this purchase.

Loss of power during drive

I purchased a 2026 Hyundai Santa Fe hybrid FWD recently, and the vehicle currently has only around 4,000 miles on it. Overall, I like the vehicle, but I have experienced a concerning issue that I believe needs to be addressed. While driving, I occasionally feel a very brief loss or cut-off of power for about a second. It is not a prolonged loss of power—the vehicle immediately returns to normal—but it has happened multiple times. The first time, I thought it might have been related to the FWD system or driving over some gravel, so I assumed it was something I needed to get used to. However, it has happened again on clean, smooth roads where there was no obvious reason for the vehicle to momentarily reduce power. Because the vehicle is only a few months old and has just around 4,000 miles, I don't think this behavior should be occurring. Even though the interruption is very brief, it is noticeable and concerning, especially when driving in traffic or accelerating. I plan to have the vehicle inspected by the Hyundai dealership and hope they can identify the cause. I wanted to share my experience in case other 2026 Santa Fe owners have noticed something similar.

Amazing Comfort and Tech

We bought our Santa Fe Calligraphy AWD Hybrid to replace a 2023 Range Rover Sport and we couldn't be happier. The Hyundai is more comfortable and the tech is leagues ahead of the Range Rover. Fuel efficiency and range is impressive too - all on regular octane fuel! And a 10-year warranty? Yes, please.

Very good but still room for improvement

First of all, I really love most of the car. It drives well and is very comfortable. I’m not going to say all the great things about the car, because there are many. The things that need to be improved… The entertainment options and menus are far too complicated. I’m a techy and it’s too much. I far too many taps on the screen to switch between radio, car play, and usb storage. There is no place to put sunglasses. No place easy to reach to put a sunglasses case without removing eyes off the road for a long period of time. The HUD causes a slight refraction of the glass and a slight prism effect, even if the hud is not in use. The liftgate is programable to how high it lifts… it is only accurate about 40% of the time. I’ve programmed it numerous times to not go to full extention because it hits the roof of my garage door, but I’ve already got scratches on the car because it doesn’t listen. I also wish they’d have made it “plug in ready”. Purely a hybrid.

Best Car I have ever had

This car has such power. It's so smooth and fun to drive. I love owning a Hybrid. I get great mileage. The seating is very comfortable. It's also the quietest where you can hold a conversation with anyone in the car.

Very nice vehicle

I have driven my Santa Fe for three months now. I only have two items that are not what I thought they would be. The rear door hatch is very sensitive and walking behind it opens it every time. The auto rain wipers do not work all the time when there is rain. I don’t know if there has to be a ton of water or not, it does not function as I anticipated

Backup camera not working

I bought my SUV a little over two months ago. It only has 800 miles on it in the backup camera quit working. The Hyundai service center cannot even get me in for two weeks. So that’s two weeks I have to go without my backup camera. And I was told by the dealership that this is happening to 2026 Santa Fe and they haven’t put a recall out on that yet. Big disappointment.
