2014 Hyundai Santa Fe Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Comment | |
2013 | Nothing impressed me more about the new Santa Fe than the amount of combined legroom. With a length of 193 inches (2.5 more than the Veracruz), the new crossover is four inches shorter than a Nissan Pathfinder and over seven inches shorter than a GMC Acadia, yet you'll find more legroom in its second and third rows. On top of this, unlike in the Nissan and GMC (but like in the Veracruz, this hasn't changed) the second-row seat is comfortably high off the floor. Alas, all is not good in this area--check out the cons below--so I haven't rated it against the Pathfinder. see full Hyundai Santa Fe review |

Year | Comment | |
As noted among the pros, you'll find abundant legroom in the Santa Fe. But shoulder room is a different story. The new Santa Fe's 74.2-inch width exceeds that of the typical compact crossover or midsize sedan, but is narrower than that of the Highlander, Veracruz, Pathfinder, Pilot, and Acadia by 1.0, 2.4, 3.0, 4.3, and 4.7 inches, respectively. For anyone seeking to sit three across in the second row (or who simply prefers the spacious ambiance of a wide vehicle in any row), the Santa Fe's consequently narrower interior could be the #1 downside of sharing as much as possible with the new two-row Santa Fe Sport. Then again, maximum shoulder room for three passengers is only an issue with the Santa Fe GLS. As mentioned in the preceding section, the Santa Fe Limited has standard captains chairs, and so can only seat six. Anyone seeking a full zoot crossover with seating for more people will have to shop elsewhere. see full Hyundai Santa Fe review |

2013 | 4dr SUV 290-horsepower 3.3L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Having owned an 09' Sonata Limited 3.3L V6 and seeing that the Santa Fe had the same engine (except this engine has GDI {Gas Direct Injection} instead of just fuel injection), I was a little concerned about whether it was going to have a good power to weight ratio. Now I'm not sure how much my Sonata weighed, but obviously the Santa Fe is a larger vehicle than the Sonata. Well, when I first punched this thing getting on the freeway with myself and my passenger/partner-for-the-day Eileen, I was shocked at how smooth and powerful it was. The other difference between the Santa Fe and the Sonata; the Sonata had a 5-speed automatic transmission, whereas the Santa Fe has a 6-speed automatic transmission. see full Hyundai Santa Fe review |
