The 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe is a significant departure from its predecessor, featuring a new hybrid engine and no diesel option. Trent Nikolic assesses the Santa Fe’s real-world performance. Starting at $55,500 plus on-road costs, with the top-tier Calligraphy priced from $75,000, the Santa Fe offers impressive features even at the base level, including 20-inch rims, LED headlights, and advanced safety tech. The hybrid drivetrain, combining a 1.6-litre turbo petrol engine and electric motor, delivers smooth performance and reasonable fuel efficiency. With a spacious cabin, advanced technology, and a strong warranty, the Santa Fe stands out in the large SUV segment.
