A preview of the future

Our new Santa Fe Ultimate has a lot of driving assists. My favorites are Dynamic Cruise Control, Auto brake, Lane Assist and Blind Spot Warning; not to forget the heads-up display. It shows you all important driving data on the front windscreen, in the view of the driver. Also, we noticed a huge improvement in the noise surpression, compared to Elantra and Tucson. The only point I'm not 100% happy with is the build in navigation: when using the navigation on an iPhone via Apple Car, the behavior is very confusing, especially in combination with the 360 degree view when driving backward: I selected my destination in Apple map and it got correctly displayed on the car info screen. Then I switched into Rear gear to drive out of the parking space and, after changing back into forward drive, my Apple car screen was black. I had to stop the car, disconnect my iPhone, reconnect it, reselect the destination and continue my route. After similar situations happened multiple times I removed the Navigation Memory Card, basically, I disabled the build-in navigation. There are many reasons one would use an external navigation, even the car has a good build-in navigation system: e.g. using Yelp (or internet pages) and ask there for directions, which usually calls up a navigation program on the smart phone. It would be great if the user could select (in Setup), which Navigation Systen to use by default and take overt the address of the destination from the current active navigation on the smart phone.

So far so good.

So far it has met all my expectations. Love the ride and the style. Pretty easy to navigate through the Bluetooth considering my last car had nothing like it.

Best Mid Size SUV

More SUV for the money than all the competitors we looked at. The safety package included everything that is available on the market today. The 2.0 T engine has all the power we need in a family SUV. The new AWD unit really works well in snow covered hills.

I just purchased the ultimate 2.0 turbo Love it

I owned a 2013 sante fe 2.0 turbo and I liked that suv a lot so I traded it in on the newly designed 2019 sante fe ultimate turbo 2.0. It has all the bells and whistles for a very good price. It rides very good and a quiet interior. I would recommend to anyone

Has many safety features standard

We had to getToo a parking brake sensor switch fixed on it before we took delivery under warranty. We like it so far. Only 250 miles on it. Seems to be a great vehicle.We have noticed that the passenger seat is really low( no height adjustment, non power on SEL plus. Seats are very comfortable, Has nice quiet ride. No CVT. Lots of room. Average gas mpg so far.
