Purchased the plus (2.4 liter) in April 2019, and I am still in love with it. Most impressed by the room, cost, style and safety features. I'm male, 6'3", 400 lbs, with long legs and the local (Houston) drive experience has been great. I plan to travel to New Orleans for Christmas, so I'm looking forward to seeing how the driving experience will be.
Prior to the final purchase, I was torn between the Santa Fe and the Honda Passport. But cost, amount of driver room and design won me over with the Santa Fe.
My concerns: since I'm moving from a Honda, I'm only concern is the reliability in the next 10-years.
My Wish List: more power or the option to get the turbo at this level and turn signal on mirrors.
Overall, I love my black on black Santa Fe!!!!!!!…

Purchased the AWD SEL PLUS! Comes with All the Ammenties I could want for $33K retail cost. This SUV drives itself on most roads and is most comfortable. The amount of Safety Kit and the amount of Options, the size, and the Design and still cheaper than a Compact SUV. This is a Midsized SUV and not to mention 10 year warranty and the dealer throws in LifeTime Warranty. Love the RED color.. with Beige and black interior.…

I purchased the car October 13 , 2018 . I got the SEL Plus package. The best car ever for the money. This car has a very quiet smooth ride. It handles great , easy to park , and has plenty of power for passing and getting away from tight traffic. I got the HTRAC AWD which I would recommend for NY weather. My wife and I took a 2 hr trip in December to meet up with relatives. Comings back I drove through an hour of heavy freezing rain and this car never slipped a bit.
My wife loves this car and wants to drive it all the time. She has nicknamed it the ‘Spaceship with all of its bells and whistles. She drives a 2010 Santa Fe limited, and she ready to upgrade to the 2019 Santa Fe ultimate.
I have been getting 28 to 33.1 miles per gallon of gas on 30 minutes trips this winter and spring with the 2.4 liter engine . I love this car, it looks great and is a fantastic experience to drive.…
