The Hyundai Santa Fe is an SUV where space and comfort are its strong points. Also present on the scene, and in terms of design and perceived quality, the Santa Fe is on par with its European competitors. Version 2.2 CRDI 4WD with optional XP tuning and automatic transmission misses nothing, but the price is quite high.

After a recent restyling Hyundai Santa Fe is in the middle of his career. The sculpted and muscular front end is in our opinion the most successful part of the Korean SUV, while the rear end, while well proportioned, lacks a bit of personality.

La Hyundai Santa Fe it is the largest SUV in the lineup and you can see it at a glance. Compared to the previous generation, the Santa Fe is shorter and longer, and now measures 470 cm from front to back, 169 cm from roof to ground and 188 cm to the sides. In conclusion, two tons of weight no doubt puts it in full-size sports utility territory, but the Hyundai Santa Fe XL also has space: 534 liters of trunk (almost 1600 with the seats down), a comfortable seat for five passengers, and large storage compartments.

Under the hood of our version we find Diesel engine 2.2 CRDi 200 hp combined with all-wheel drive and 6-speed automatic transmission. In this case, the four-wheel drive is activated only "on demand", that is, when there is insufficient adhesion of the front wheels to the road, which makes driving more efficient in conditions of good adhesion to the road.

The Santa Fe XPossible package includes all the amenities you need as well as elegant touches such as 18-inch alloy wheels, a panoramic roof and a chrome grille.
