In the latest review by TheStraightPipes, the 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe takes center stage, showcasing a turbocharged engine that packs a punch. With a design reminiscent of the iconic Land Rover Defender, this SUV turns heads with its bold and boxy appearance. The team delves into the intricate details, counting over 70 "H" patterns cleverly integrated throughout the vehicle, adding a unique touch to its overall aesthetic.
As they explore the interior, the team finds a spacious and comfortable cabin, complete with three-row seating that offers practicality for families. However, they note some drawbacks, such as the low positioning of the tail lights at the back end. Despite this, the Santa Fe impresses with its driving dynamics, featuring a smooth ride and responsive handling, thanks to its all-wheel drive system and well-tuned suspension.
Moving inside, the team discovers a luxurious interior adorned with ambient lighting, wood trim, and a high-tech infotainment system that boasts a seamless user experience. They highlight the comfortable seats, wireless charging capabilities, and ample storage options, showcasing the thoughtful design elements present throughout the cabin. The Santa Fe's pricing, starting at $44,999 Canadian, offers good value for the features and quality it provides, making it a compelling choice in the SUV market.
