Wonderful vehicle

Great vehicle. I just wish the radar wasn’t so sensitive in the drive thru and that the back windshield was easier to clean

Technological Issues, but Otherwise Fine

In general, I like my vehicle. It is comfortable, gets great gas mileage for the size, and drives well, however, there are a number of technological quirks that irritate me and make me want to get rid of my vehicle. Engine sometimes sounds like it is struggling to change gears when driving up a hill, even when vehicle is unloaded. Some examples: The sensor that determines whether you are looking at the road frequently malfunctions, even with the feature turned off. The vehicle tells me I need to take control of the vehicle when I am actively using a turn signal and changing lanes. I have had an issue with the sound system where none of the speakers worked (only happened once so far, though they did have a robotic quality on one other instance). The fans and air frequently turn on, when I am not in the vehicle nor have I requested climate control to be turned on. Several times the vehicle has not completely started when I have turned the vehicle on. I then have to turn the vehicle off and turn it back on to be able to drive.

Good value for what you get

We traded our Ford Maverick Hybrid in for a new Santa Fe Hybrid and are quite pleased. Same MPG in the city and bit better with the Santa Fe on the highway. The ride is excellent and it is easy to drive. The interior is mostly laid out well. The under console is hard to reach if you're driving and you can't see what is down there is you're in the passenger seat. The backup camera stays on a bit too long once you shift from reverse into drive, which is annoying, but hardly more than that. Storage in the back is excellent. The Santa Fe is 10 inches shorter than the Maverick and we have as much storage (and all covered!) in the Santa Fe.

Battery died after driving 2k miles, parked inside garage

I had to call road side assistance twice while my car was parked inside the garage. The reason was a bad battery given to us either via dealership or the manufacturer upon purchasing a brand new vehicle.

Hello Hare, We encourage you to visit your local authorized Hyundai dealership for further inspection and assistance concerning the battery. If you have any questions or concerns about Hyundai vehicles, please contact our customer connect center at (800) 633-5151. Thank you ^cc.

Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid Caligraphy (2026)

I've had my Santa Fe Hybrid for a month. I've driven it 700 miles, in town (side streets, main arterials, and city freeways. The vehicle is extremely smooth and quiet, powerful, and gets 35 MPG. The interior is very comfortable. Third row seating would be cramped for adults traveling any distance. The transition from electric power to gas engine, or both, and back to electric is all seamless. You can't even feel when the gas engine starts or stops. The electronic controls are great. The connection to mobile phone and mobile audio is seamless.

Most Comfortable Ride

This vehicle is exactly what my wife and I were looking for. We're approaching retirement and were looking for a comfortable ride that was fuel efficient and roomy enough to accommodate us, a 60 lb dog, golf clubs, and luggage. This has checked all the boxes.

Great & Efficient SUV

This Santa Fe is an amazing vehicle. The materials feel like they could be in a Genesis product, with Nappa Leather seats and leather material trim in both touch and non-touch points. My favorite part of the interior is the center console layout and the panoramic connected infotainment screen. This screen design really complements the luxurious and futuristic style of the vehicle. The vehicle's boxy shape greatly expands passenger and cargo space. Within the first week of leasing this vehicle, I was able to fit a new desk (still in box) that would not have fit in other vehicles, purely because of this vehicle's length and shape. The hybrid powertrain is very smooth and very efficient. On most days, when it is warm/hot out, I actually exceed EPA ratings up to 41mpg on one trip. It is less efficient in cold weather; I usually only get 30-32 mpg in those cases for combined driving, however, this rarely occurs. Transitions between electric and gas are very smooth as well. It costs about $32 dollars to fill up with 87 octane gasoline, which I only have to do every 3-4 weeks. The powertrain is adequately quick for the vehicle's size, and acceleration is relatively quick. The suspension is very smooth and definitely tuned for comfort.

Love my Sante Fe Hybrid

First hybrid experience and love it! The Tan leather interior and captain's chairs are wonderful. Plenty of room to haul precious SPCA crates and cargo as well.
