Pros
Fuel Economy
My Hyundai Santa Fe gets excellent gas mileage. On average, I get 24-26 MPG. On long highway trips, I've gotten more than 30 MPG.
Cabin Noise
This car rides very quiet and smooth.
Dashboard
The dashboard is sleek and upgraded. I love it. I love the contrasting colors and how responsive the speedometer controls and radio system are.
Cons
Technology and Entertainment
I wish the car had a utility plug (110v outlet) for electronics.
Styling
The car looks good and I really like the dark grey color, however, I wish it wasn't so low to the ground... would like more of a SUV style. Also, I would prefer bigger factory wheels, maybe 18-inch.
Power
Would like a little more power when accelerating.
Pros
Reliability
This is our third SantaFe we currently own and drive daily. My first is a 2013 SantaFe Sport with 133,000+ miles and all I have done is replace a battery, buy new tires, back axl brakes and ac service. 13 years and that is it ! Second SantaFe is 2020 SEL 50,000 miles and have do e no maintenance other than oil change and tire rotation. My third is this 2020 SE 17,200 miles and built like a brick. Not 1 of our 3 SantaFes has ever let us down or left us stranded.
Value
Compared to competition in its class, it is head and shoulders above them all. Even luxury brands. I recently rented a Toyota Rav5 and boy was I disappointed and happy to get back to my SantaFe.
Interior Space
I bought a large recta gular table with 6 chairs from Costco. The Costco loaders laughed when I pulled up. 10 minutes later as I was loaded and leaving, I had the last laugh. It all fit in one (1) trip.
Cons
Visibility
Visibility is VERY important to me to avoid other drivers when driving. The view out the front is amazi g on road trips as there is absolutely no visible distractions. The beautiful design allows the hood to gently slope away like a infinity pool. I recently rented a Toyota Rav4 and all I looked at was an ugly hood that was constantly there to stare at. Distractingly ugly.
Cabin Noise
My 2013 has wind noise at the driver window, and always has from day 1. Hyundai fixed the issue with 2020 SantaFes.
Pros
Cabin Noise
Very quiet, smooth and comfortable ride.
Interior Space
Perfect amount of space with room for the Grandkids.
Power
I was worried about having a 4 cylinder but the transmission generates plenty of power and acceleration.
