Interior/Exterior

The exterior has H-shaped elements that give it a Minecraft look. It's also fitted with giant 21-inch wheels and prominent roof rails. With the new interior, the Santa Fe has a more open concept. The extension of the axle and wheelbase now provides more space for passengers--specifically third-row seating. Occupants will appreciate the extra cargo room, now 26 cubic feet. When the seats are folded down, you get even more to store overnight bags, groceries, gear, and more. The additional 40 inches of legroom and increased sliding seat room means your legs are never cramped or tired. If you are camping, the rear cabin has plenty of room for you to sleep.

If your hands are full, open the liftgate with a foot wave. This is also convenient for loading and unloading items. Count on the same small cubby storage. The center console is also deep enough to stow away your cell phone, keys, sunglasses, and more. You will also enjoy climate control and a leather-wrapped and heated steering wheel with upgrades. There are plenty of cupholders, USB charging ports, and a cell phone charger for your convenience. Another unique feature is the small item sanitizer just above the glovebox that uses ultraviolet light.

Performance

Nothing has changed under the hood. The new Santa Fe still has the same 2.5-liter four-cylinder 277-hp engine. It is still accompanied by the same eight-speed automatic transmission with the choice of all-wheel or front-wheel drive. The different drive modes can be switched to adapt to road and weather conditions. So don't be afraid to push that accelerator when you need to. The Santa Fe's maximum towing capacity is 3,500, which is more than enough for a boat, camper, and more. Fuel capacity runs 25 mpg city, 28 mpg highway, 26 mpg combined-perfect for your commute from Delaware, OH to Bucyrus, OH.

Technology

The large, curved dash centerpiece has a couple of 12.3-inch screens -- one is for the infotainment, and the other is for a gauge cluster. You can access a great deal of information and stay connected with this technology. Everything is either voice or touch-activated. Access music, news, media, phone, and much more. The navigational system helps you easily get around town or anywhere else. Both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are part of the standard package. If you or your passengers need to access social media or get your emails, the Bluetooth and Wi-Fi hotspot can link multiple phones. The Harman Kardon sound system is a standard with the Santa Fe. Get awesome sound quality during your travels via the 12-speaker set.

Safety Features

The new 2024 Santa Fe has many driver-assisted features to enjoy. Confidence-building features like emergency braking, blind spot monitoring, and lane-keeping assist are standard. A new radar-based monitor is included to check rear seats after you park. Automatic high beams can give you a clear view of what's coming at you. Automatic lock doors ensure that kids can't get out and prevent others from getting in. Surrounding driver, passenger, and curtain airbags are another line of defense when you need them.
