The Santa Fe is powered by a large, 3.3L 6-cylinder naturally-aspirated V6 engine that offers 290hp and 252 ft-lbs of torque. The power mill is mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission. For a V6 engine, the Santa Fe can be considered as something really efficient as it achieves 18mpg in city roads and 25mpg on highways.
In terms of design, the Santa Fe has a really futuristic styling. The car sports a three-layer chrome strips that made up its grille. The LED headlamps are triangular in shape with spotlights inching out below it. The taillights are also kept narrow and stretched over the side.
When it comes to comfort, the Santa Fe is well equipped to offer a pleasant driving experience. However, the SUV is not able to offer as much space as the Chevrolet Tahoe, or even the Dodge Durango. Nevertheless, the air filtration, air conditioning, 2nd row power outlets, cargo power outlet, central infotainment system and privacy windows will be able to make passengers forget about the slightly crammed interior.
The Hyundai Santa Fe is also a safe car to travel on. It comes complete with ABS, Braking Assist, 7-airbags and fog lamps ensure the safety of its driver and passengers.
The special thing about the Santa Fe is with its drive system. The SUV is an AWD which gives it the ability to take on the off-road terrain. While it might lack some off-road features, the fact that it has a high clearance system makes it a decent all-terrain vehicle.
