Great Car

I drove my previous car for 16 years and really didn't want to replace it. Turns out I don't miss it at all.

Poor Designed venhicle

The console modules of '26 version vs. the '24 version is a major step back. In the '24 version, the icons were lighted and easy to see, no so in the latest version. The coffee cup supposed safety feature is a terrible feature, often going off without any reason. It drives me crazy. The ' 24 version only beeped once while the '26 version beeps five times - why? Very annoying and distracting to passengers. It's a terrible and unnecessary feature and your dealer won't fix it. I will be looking for another brand to trade this piece of crap in.

Great car.Problem is that the driver's seat belt gets caught on seat.

As stated above, the driver's seatbelt sometimes gets stuck behind the seat and needs to be tugged at several times until it can be attached in the front.

2026 Santa Fe Calligrapy is a real gem

Having never been Hyundai owners, we ventured into the brand when we read an article in the Wall Street Journal about the newly designed Santa Fe. We could not be more pleased with the features that we have found in the vehicle that obviously were well researched with much customer input. It seems they thought of everything for the ride, the comfort, and the gas mileage, including unique handles that give you support when adjusting a load on the roof or when clearing off snow from the roof. It is a smooth engine and a very quiet ride, making long trips much less exhausting.

26 Santa Fe SEL Hybrid Early Review

Mostly very positive. Every system is performing as designed. I am coming off a 2020 Outback Limited which is a nice, dependable SUV. Only time will tell how dependable the Santa Fe is, but after 2000 miles it has performed flawlessly. It runs quieter and smoother, has a big car feel and gets better mileage. Although it has three rows, I folded the third row and have a great cargo area. I am short and the Santa Fe seats adjust much better for me than the Outback.

2026 Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid - Calligraphy

Enjoying the vehicle and getting it configured to my needs. Lots of options and settings to choose from. Some are very obvious and some take time to search and set.

Love it with some reservations

The car is stable, roomy, VERY comfortable with clean lines inside and out. We appreciate ALL the features (mileage, size, clear & wide view with minimal blind spots). We DO NOT LIKE the following. 1) The 2.25" hitch and towing load is sweet. Making a car with that towing capacity WITHOUT A TOWING MODE to turn off cross traffic/pedestrian automatic braking is irresponsible. I was advised to (not kidding) remove the trailer/platform basket when I wanted to back up. We can turn off the auto braking feature each time we start the car but still have to back up while listening to loud alarms wailing throughout the backing process. 2) Taking the car through a pull-through car wash is terrifying. The brakes lock. The warning sirens wail. Again, there's no quick and simple, dependable way to disarm the auto braking. You can hand wash. you can use ineffective car washes. You cannot use a pull-through washing system. 3) Driving in heavy cross winds and buffeting winds DOES HAVE an OCCASIONAL self-correct system...OCCASIONALLY it is in effect. CONSISTENTLY you get a distracting alarm SUGGESTING you pull over and rest. We cannot always chose when we need to get somewhere in perfect weather. High winds are common and often not predicted. The stability feature needs to be more responsive and NOT engaged for a few moments only. It also needs to "talk with" the drowsy driver alarm. LAST THING A DRIVER NEEDS IN LESS THAN IDEAL CONDITIONS IS CONSTANT ALARMS and FLASHING LIGHTS ON THE DASH.

Great vehicle. Overall I am pleased! Concerned about exhaust system.

I noticed on my new 2026 Hyundai Santa Fe, and the others on the lot at Hyundai of El Paso, that on the exhaust system (catalytic converter, muffler and exhaust pipe that there are multiple welds that appear to be rusting. I am concerned that they will rust out in time. Below I will include pictures taken recently. My vehicle was purchased 12/8/2025. I believed that the vehicle was assembled at a plant in Georgia. Also as to not raise the prices too much, the 2026 did not have a stainless steel exhaust and was modified. I appreciated keeping the cost from rising, but am concerned about this issue. Please contact me with a response by phone (preferred) and/or email. Thank you, Richard "John" Lassere

Roomy

This is our second Santa Fe and we needed more room. This has a 3rd row seat. We have the limited edition which is packed with features. Love the Bose sound system too.
