Great Car

I think this is an excellent car and happy with my purchase. I test drove a lot of cars before deciding on the Santa Fe sport. My only complaint is that I was only able to afford the basic model and many other SUVs seemed to have more bells and whistles for the same price as the Santa Fe.

Fun to drive and feature packed

I really enjoy driving this vehicle, has nearly every option I would ever want. The Ultimate package has all the bells and whistles. Safety tech galore, automated emergency braking has saved me a few times, and radar cruise control will spoil you! The Panoramic roof is amazing, basically a convertible SUV!

Great SUV for Family

This SUV is spacious and interior + Exterior looks great. The mileage is 20-24 mpg a bit low due to high fuel cost. This is a great family SUV. I love it--

Liked the first one so much, I bought a second one

Excellent value for the money. Loaded with safety and convenience features. Very comfortable to drive. Lots of room for passengers & cargo. Very good fuel economy.

the best car I've ever bought so far

With its sizable standard-features lists, the Santa Fe Sport comes across as good value, even in upper turbo trim levels, though the price differential is significant. Gas mileage doesn't excel, and the less-costly base engine is somewhat lifeless, making the turbo a better choice, especially when you consider the additional features that are included.

Awesome Vehicle

Amazing power for a 4 cylinder! Safety features are over the top. Very comfortable ride. Our last Sonata lasted 12 years, this car is a beast!!! No repairs need, only paid for tires and one battery!!!

Love my Santa Fe Sport

Vehicle is very stylish and runs and drives beautifully. Loaded with many extras. Wasn't sure about buying a turbo but it has been fine. I would not hesitate to purchase another.
