The all-new, fifth generation 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe brings bold, expressive styling and an upscale interior to the three-row SUV party.

Lower trims use a 1.6L Turbo four-cylinder engine with a six-speed automatic while upper trims use a stronger 2.5L Turbo four-cylinder with an eight-speed DCT.

New this year is the XRT off-road inspired trim with an additional 1.4 inches of ground clearance and can tow up to 4,500 pounds.

Standard safety is plentiful as are the driving dynamics in this boxy and stylish mid-size SUV.

Add in the dual screen curved display and the Santa Fe reaches a premium class.

With heavy competition, Hyundai is also targeting two-row crossovers, including the Subaru Outback, Kia Sorento, Honda Passport, Nissan Murano and others.
