Hyundai Santa Fe Sport

"My husband wishes we had got a V6 engine...."

"Poor acceleration,when pulling a hill always high rpm's.Should have gotten the turbo instead."

"Passing is easy, accelerating up to highway speeds on ramp is a breeze!"

"Acceleration is fine for a 4, but the steering could be a little bit more crisp. Love the ride though!"

"Handles great in the snow. No need for snow tires"

"Sometimes seems like he transmission can't make up its mind what gear it should be in."

"2.4l is somewhat anemic but the mileage is good."

"when accelerating you don't have to put the throttle to the floor, you give it part throttle and the turbo takes over. acts like there is a v8 engine under the hood"

"iMessage suggesting the celebration in passing and control"

"gas mileage"

"Comfortable"

"after driving and while vehicle is stopped it occasionally will jerk forward a little bit even while the brakes are depressed. sometimes feels like transmission can't make up its mind."

"This car accelerates well , better than my 2017 Santa Fe."

"Car has great pickup and acceleration with the turbo engine."

"Good acceleration."

"Acceleration is exceptional for a 2.0 Turbo in this size and weight of vehicle. Handling is good - drifting is slight."

"Handling and visibility are very good, seat comfort not so good. Cargo capacity very good."

"Good acceleration, braking and handling. Choice of three styles of steering is a positive."

"Very responsive and easy to drive."

"have always been unhappy with acceleration but you get what you pay for"

"Excellent visibility,acceleration,and manuvering. Sits up enough to improve clearance of road hazards."

"very very poor acceleration. Scary getting on freeway. Has no power going up a hill either."

"Excellent gasoline mpg. excellent drive ability'very good cargo space for such a small car."

"Very responsive to both items"

"It is very peppy (2.0 turbo) and gets good gas mileage (average 23, up to 27 on the highway). It handles very well."

"Safety factors such as blind side mirrors and rear view guidance. The only negative is that the passenger seat headrest and passenger door post makes it difficult for driver to look for traffic coming from the right.(at a cross street)"

"handles very nicely but is under powered and doesn't accelerate as well as I believe it should"

"Handling is very good in the Santa Fe, and acceleration is not bad. I do think it could use a bit more power."

"Great on long trips, comfortable, better mileage than expected, ease of handling."

"Very quiet. Very little road or engine noise."

"Zips right out into traffic like a bandit!"

"The only thing I would change would be the ability for the front passenger seat to raise up and down, not just forward & backward."

"Accelerates very well on freeways! Comfortable on my back on long trips, feel as good getting out as getting in!"

"My only complaint on this vehicle is that the drivers seat could be a tad softer. I find my derrière gets really tired on long trips."

"Seats are comfortable, but the wind noise from outside is getting through the widows and doors. Tire noise might contributing."

"Very comfortable seats for long journey."

"The wind noise is louder than it should be. It sounds like the windows aren't quite closed. The engine noise at idle and low speeds is louder than it should be."

"Easy to maneuver, Adjustable lumbar support, responsive acceleration."

"Driver's seat auto adjusts for driver. Great feature. Noise level pretty good. Fairly smooth ride."

"The heated seat"

"Road noise is excessive, I replaced tires, which helped a little bit."

"I find the driving position very uncomfortable for even short trips. The centre arm rest is too low and too far back to use while driving. The door arm rest sweeps up at the front so there is nowhere to rest the left arm. The top of the door trim panel is too narrow to rest the elbow while driving and the elbow slides off. I just can't get comfortable for a long drive, so I take my Maxima on most trips."

"passenger seat should have lumbar support features reduction of cabin noise would be a plus"

"Extremely comfortable vehicle. Lots of room on all sides of you. If you have any back problems, these seats are very accommodating."

"Rides and handles more like a car than SUV. Relatively quiet, plenty of room for 5 plus storage."

"Good"

"Auto controls on drivers seat. Heated front seats in"

"Love the car, however, the seats are "short" and not comfortable. Not easy to gerinto."

"Low road and engine noise. Seats are comfortable Some nice to haves like back seat shades Entry & Exit is easy"

"Heated seats front and back"

"Very comfortable ride."

"seats are harder than my 2010 Santa Fe"

"Comfortable ride"

"I enjoy the air cool d seats."

"The seats are NOT comfortable. Supposedly, they are ergonomically correct -- but they are SO uncomfortable. Even on a trip that is only an hour away, the seats aren't comfortable. They are hard."

"Seat becomes a little uncomfortable after about 8 hours of driving. My tailbone begins to hurt a bit. Even so, its still more my problem in setting the adjustments. Wish they offered seat setting Memory without requiring their "Technology" Option Package. My wife uses the car twice a week and makes changes to all the adjustments - Seats, Mirrors, etc.."

"One of the quietest vehicles we've ever driven. Seats are comfortable. Ride is compliant."

"Very comfortable leather seats, quiet ride."

"Great comfort feel like your riding in a luxury car."

"Many additional features, especially Blind Side Detection. The 2.0 Turbo is fun to use and has power when needed. This one came with trailer hitch."

"List price was high but after negociating, got the SUV well below suggested prices at zero interest."

"Great car for the price. ."

"For under $30000 I have an SUV with plenty of extras which came as standard equipment."

"GOOD CAR"

"A nice SUV for a reasonable price"

"Great value considering the price and all of the features and functionality. It is indeed a "utility" vehicle that comes in handy for all kinds of things: shopping, vacation traveling, cargo carrying, etc."

"At the time we purchased the Santa Fe Sport, it had most of the features we wanted at a reasonable price. The few features that weren't available on the Santa Fe, but would have been available on significantly more expensive vehicles, would have put it out of our price range."

"Dependability, minimal break downs and repairs. Battery is disappointing for short life (sometimes only two years) and replacement is very expensive. The dealership told me this was because of new regulations that the battery is made of a different composition form the old batteries,"

"Loaded vehicle for good price."

"Mileage, size, comfort, and 10 year drive train warrantee"

"Price was good for my wife to use as a commuter vehicle, and with the taller seats, it is easy to get in and out. Gas mileage is excellent for city commuting."

"Great car! For 14 years, no major service problems! I will buy another one next ear!"

"Looked at "luxury" SUV's and decided on the Santa Fe Sport because it had all the features at more than $10,000 less"

"This is my third Hyundai Santa Fe, I feel safe and have no complaints about performance,body style or equipment. I feel I got excellent value for the price and the extended warranty standard on this vehicle only reenforces that value factor."

"Its a very good driving SUV. Good ride and handling, exceptional power from a small normally aspirated 4 cylinder engine. Great gas mileage compared with my old 2007 Santa Fe. 35+ MPG at 80MPH and 29.5 at 65MPH. I think its a really great SUV for the price."

"Excellent handling. Excellent value and gas milage"

"mileage is poor with the 2.0 turbo, more expensive to operate"

"Good value for dollars spent."

"I got a very reliable vehicle with many of the features found on SUVs costing thousands of dollars more. It looks almost new with 40K miles and has performed as well as we had hoped when we purchased it."

"Excellent vehicle! This is my third one!"

"For the money it is extremely hard to beat this vehicle. It is quiet, comfortable, easy to use and very safe"

"Very happy with the standard features. Many would be considered upgrades in a North American car. Very reliable - this is our second one - no warranty issues with either one."
