worst car I've ever owned.

The hesitation when you try to accelerate is terrible. It is going to get someone killed when trying to pull out onto the highway. Also, I bought a 2018 in Oct of 2017 and I already have rust spots along all the doors.

Great warranty

This car is comfortable and easy to drive. No blind spots that stood out. Front seats are very comfortable and both electric. Large enough to have room for everything but not so large that you are overwhelmed.

2018 Santa Fe

This car had better safety ratings than the comparable models with more features and at a better price. My family and I are extremely satisfied with the comfort and size of this SUV.

Love It!

My wife and I were looking for an all wheel drive vehicle that would take care of our family's needs year-round. It's so much more than we expected. I used to own a Sonata Hybrid and I fell in love with it, so the first place we went was to our local Hyundai dealership. We loved the Santa Fe so much that we leased a 2018 Tucson for our son!

I'm driving with comfort and safety satisfaction.

I love this car-Santa Fe XL AWD. This is my second Hyundai Santa Fe. Simple but elegant design in and out plus the safety features meet and even exceeded my expectations. Fuel economy is good when driving with efficient techniques. I like the Iron Frost color that I got. The sunroof is awesome too, from front all the way at the back. Beside from backing camera, I like how the side mirrors are auto adjusting to assist so I locate my exact line spot during back parking.

Our 2nd Hundai

I'm a big guy (6'6") and a lot of cars make me feel squeezed. Both our Sonata and now our Santa Fe are very open and meet my needs. Highly recommend.

Great engineering! Great safety features

If awd performs in the wet and snow it will be a great replacement for our LX470 as it resides in Colorado most of the time
