I have 2022 Santa Fe Hybrid and put on 80000 miles on so far. Greatest car ever I drove without any problems. So smooth and convenient and reliable ~
-
The rover fe is definitely a budget friendly semi-premium option ,Hyundai is winning because they’re not afraid to take styling risks unlike other car manufacturers cool review 💯
-
I have awd calligraphy 2024 santa fe non hybrid and giving me 30mpg. Love it
-
One thing i dont understand is why the toyotas and hondas keep offering you less car for money. I mean I understand they offer reliability but that doesnt mean you keep offering 5 yr old garbage to yout cx. I mean look at toyota vehicle lineup. Most of them are just face uplift. Most of them need a long due overhaul. And kudos to Hyundai/Kia for taking the risks with their designs. They no doubt been dishing out some of the most amazing designs across their lineups.

We’ve owned our 2024 Santa Fe Limited since February and we have absolutely zero complaints. It’s a great vehicle with a cool design.
-
Stupid people do not try to look at the product no matter how much it changes and try to evaluate it based on the brand.
-
Even if I could afford to pay more for a Toyota I certainly never would. It doesn’t make any sense to buy less of a vehicle in hopes that it may last longer. That’s like marrying someone who bores you to death and your hoping you stay bored as long as possible.
-
I've seen the santa fe in person. It's much better. Definitely looks special (for better or for worse). On the other hand, as usual the Toyota looks kinda plain. I like how Hyundai/Kia is not afraid to take risks.
-
I test drove the Santa Fe when it first came out, and I was blown away by the interior quality, quiet smooth ride and the overall vehicle performance. The only concern is the long term reliability of the powertrain.
-
My dad used to say the Toyotas would last forever. That was back then. My fellow MZ friends say Hyundai is the one to choose instead of Toyotas or Hondas. Certainly, time has changed and Hyundais have come a long way! In 2024 and on, Hyundais and Kias are killing it.

I have a Kia sportage new model and I’m very happy my 2nd Kia to all the doubters out there

Ive owned lots 0f Toyota vehicles and a Sorento SX for years too .. To be honest i had less issues with my Kia than my Tacoma amd 4Runner.. It had a 6 cylinder and 29 mpg hwy .. Hyundai/ Kia have come along way .. The Hilander looks garbage with the outdated bloated Toyota design ..Thank Gawd they are moving away from this heinous look.. SF , all the way !

santa fe hybrid will have better fuel economy in real world than highlander just like the sonata hybrid vs camry, prius prime vs niro phev, etc. toyota epa numbers are always too optimistic
-
Santa Fe looks much better
-
I would lease the Hyundai personally until I’m sure these aren’t bad long term, but what they were able to do for the price is insane. Interested to see what they do with the next palisade, because this Santa Fe is really impressive
-
The toyota is the equivalent of a boomer trying to use a new smartphone and keep up with evolving tech and style.
-
Amazing Review Sam! Loved the way you used your equipment boxes to show the space in trunk, that definitely puts a picture to the Cargo Space numbers 7:13 . I was very surprised that almost 60k toyota car still uses prop rods under the hood, these little things really adds to over all customer experience. Toyota should stop cutting costs and add more value added convenience features for customers in my opinion not to mention the outdated tech.
-
If Hyundai takes more effort long term reliability like Toyota it be game changer for Hyundai.
-
Hi Sam, thank you for the comparison review. Santa Fe is a clear winner here for me too.

You forgot to mention that if you’re in the 3rd row you can recline the chair back if you want to be more comfortable. We love our 2024 Santa Fe Caligraphy.
