Sir, these lighting reviews and night drives are absolutely *chef's kiss* You're doing the Lord's work!

This is one of the most well lit interiors I’ve seen on your channel.

[@germanturkish1664]

The fact that you make night shots to capture both the interior and exterior lighting makes your videos my favorites

[@AlbuquerqueKim]

I’m a first time viewer and now subscriber. Thank you for a very thorough, helpful and informative video. It’s especially valuable for me to “experience” the car at night, as I usually take test drives during daylight hours.

[@MikesCarInfo]

Glad it was helpful!

[@matthewc7473]

I've been watching you for years since the start. Thank you for not changing Mike! You provide great informative reviews, while being down to Earth and interesting.

[@donsmith9458]

Great video. Love the pointer finger, lol. Awesome work with overlaying the window sticker. That was pretty cool and much appreciated.

[@skitterjaiden7365]

So keen to buy this when it becomes available in my area of Australia next week 😍

[@dnajournal4321]

Have you bought one yet? Which state in Australia are you in? Which variant are you buying?

[@rustbeltrobclassic2512]

i just bought a black hybrid limited, I have a short torso and long legs, the calligraphy seats didn't have as long of a bottom seat cushion, so i went limited.. But, i just can't get over how quiet and comfortable it drives.. it's so isolated, and to me that's the best feature. The tech is amazing, but i bought it because of how isolated it is to drive.

[@DV-tc1yr]

I got the same but in RED....i wish it would LOCK when you walk away..... cant get it to do it yet 😞

[@rustbeltrobclassic2512]

@@DV-tc1yr It works on mine, but i just don't trust it.. ;)

[@happytravler1]

I currently own a 2015 Ford Flex. My partner owns a 2020 Santa Fe, I like his Santa Fe , but not enough to buy one. I love the box style, because unlike every other SUV, this 2024 Santa Fe doesn't look like every other SUV on the road. And that's the main reason I'm ordering a 2025 Santa Fe Calligriphy Hybrid.

[@Crockdaddy1074]

2009 Ford Flex Owner, 210K miles later I have finally found my replacement. I expect I'll be ordering either the limited or Calligriphy Hybrid Sante Fe 2025 end of this year.

[@happytravler1]

​@@Crockdaddy1074i took delivery of my 2025 Calligraphy last Saturday. I am in love! Still learning about it but every day is something new. I bought the Calligraphy because i could get the head-up display and 2nd row captains chairs. It would be difficult for many people to get in behind the bench seat to the third row.

[@hsbd-hl7gn]

Awesome videography on the lights

[@kris.notchris]

Can you do the 2024 Sonata Hybrid Limited?

[@Crockdaddy1074]

Thanks be to the algorithm. Loved this review. Great job. Seriously. Easily earned my sub.

[@imarr17]

Interesting video. How does the night display of the road ahead work on minor country roads with no edge or centre road markings? And does weather have any impact on system function?

[@i.d.6492]

I like the unique approach to showing price and everything it comes with in addition to hud screen etc.

[@83goobmoonlight]

Now taking look at the 2024 and newer Hyundais, the interior is extreme improvement from the previous years with the Hyundai badge being replaced with a rectangle having 4 dots inside

[@kirstiemccullough1786]

I love the look of it, like a Land Rover. They have a great warranty too

[@bingeMAFIA]

Amazing vehicle, amazing channel. Subscribed! 😎

[@PeanutsandPopcorn]

[@TheGlamoureboy]

what camera did you used? very nice at lowlight

[@danielsegewitz6956]

i want to know that aswell. crazy good camera

[@mangokraken]

Can you do this for the new ID Buzz if and when you get a chance?

[@stephenyang1255]

How come the vertical ambient lighting on the sides turn off when the car is in drive? is that a setting or on purpose? Seems to only be lit when in Park

[@MikesCarInfo]

Yes, it is on purpose. I suppose it is to avoid being too close to peripheral vision.

[@ZeeClicks]

Loved every bit of it, such a detailed review, keep rocking bro, love from Pakistan

[@Charliepd]

I love your interior and light review, but is it possible to have a headlight rating per car or a ranking system

[@Tarek_Issa77]

Nice review Nice car

[@achyugonu]

Apple carplay directions comes on HUD?

[@Flipp87]

For this type interior is this a certain package ? & what’s the price ? Thanks !

[@rickwhitney4948]

I think it's nice looking@

[@andretorres1220]

I have this vehicle and I love ambient lighting, my biggest complaint is that it dims once you take it out of park and the sides of the dash ambient lights shut off completely. I wish they stayed on because they make the look so much better.

[@hassanwilridge2028]

that my car white on black❤

[@Aventador-lz4ti]

gj thx u ❤ nice car

[@ChrisPollard]

Same headlight system as the LEDs on my Santa Cruz ... they're super bright. I get flashed by oncoming vehicles ALL the time at night. I find the auto highbeams are a little too fast to turn off though. Cars 2 miles down a straight stretch will send them into low beams. Still, Hyundai's lighting game is strong.

[@BigBopper-zm1kf]

Just waiting on my new blue calligraphy hybrid

[@happytravler1]

We don't have a blue option for 2024 Calligriphy, but I understand that it will be available for the 2025 Calligraphy trim.

[@canturkcivelek4896]

Thanks for the video! Could you also make the same video with the 2024 Kia Sorento? So we can compare those options.. thank you.

[@MikesCarInfo]

I will try!

[@MikesCarInfo]

I finally got the Sorento videos up :)

[@edc_victor]

I`m guessing, if you push upwards on the sunvisor, you can turn the light on before you open it?

[@MikesCarInfo]

No, it only turns it off when hit with the visor. Otherwise it could accidently be turned on and left on.

[@DV-tc1yr]

Got mine yesterday and am kinda agrivated that I cant get my applecar play to work the TEXT MESSAGES icon wont appear ive looked every where in my phone to resolve the issue anyone else having this issue?

[@luvmylab29]

Lol I bought this car but don’t drive at night so I’m watching f this 😂

[@short5stick]

What happened to the fog lights that I thought it had?

[@michaelellis6041]

Is there any Auto pilot or somthing where it can steer for you?

[@minutemanmuster]

I have the Calligraphy trim level ICE and yes it has smart cruise control which is "self driving". I put it in quotes because you must keep a hand on the wheel but it can be very lightly. It works wonderfully keeping you in the lane and will change lanes if you put your signal on and the lane is clear. The heads up display in cruise control is also great. The white lines on either side of the animated car will turn green if it is safe to change lane. There are so many sensors and safety features that make it difficult to have an accident. Because of all of these features, my auto insurance actually went down over $300 a year

[@supremeboy]

Looks great but what the heck they didnt put any lights to floor first seats and driver pedals? Thats huge problem. That high priced cars usually have at least floor lights. Also no lights for cup holders. The most often used place in the dark for coffee ect. I dont get why Hyundai didnt think of that. Also high beams doesnt have intelligent or matrix in them. Thats also not good at current price range. Most new cars have adaptive matrix high beams

[@MM-ig2zq]

All the people that say it’s ugly, they can’t afford this SUV. You figure.

[@Berzertles]

Nah I personally just don’t like how it looks. Especially the rear.

[@vVenmz]

Nah, just dont think you have good taste in suvs lol, this thing looks like the byproduct of hyundai having a 3 year old attempting to recreate a land rover in microsoft paint

[@kabisayago]

The Santa Fe does NOT have self driving.

[@samuelofosuhene250]

At that price point, the interior is just super luxurious. The shape of the car does not have to look like a Land Rover. Rather than copying other brands, Hyundai should design their own SUV

[@jh748]

This is a SUV; either its boxed shaped like the Santa Fe/Land Rover or rounded rear like the majority of all the others.

Wish the tail lights were positioned but higher.

The only thing keeping me from this is the dual clutch can,t do it needs an 8 speed auto.

hybrid has a 6 speed torque converter automatic.. the 2.5t is faster, but the hybrid has the traditional automatic

[@MrSiagian]

Lot of people doubt the build quality of hyundai or kia, compared to toyota or honda. What do u say guys?

[@minutemanmuster]

I have owned 3 Toyotas and my 2024 Santa Fe is my 5th Hyundai or Kia vehicle. Quality has not been an issue in either brand for me but I find that Hyundai and Kia have more interesting styling and extra touches in the cars which add to their appeal. For me, the value for the price has always gone to Kia and Hyundai. Toyota is currently recalling 145,000 2024 cars for an airbag issue and they are recalling 100,000 2022/2023 trucks/SUV to replace the whole engine. I suppose that this Calligraphy trim level in the video (the top trim level) is comparable to the Toyota Sequoia but the Santa Fe is $10k cheaper and the interior design blows it away. If you're in the market, I say do a test drive for comparison. My experiences with the brand have been great

[@fmsp8596]

10 years from now we are going to look at that 360 parking camera and laugh

[@sansin6250]

22:15 Is this you driving or self-driving? Do you feel confident using the self-driving features at night?

[@MikesCarInfo]

It has lane keeping assist and adaptive cruise control. Both work fine at night. No self-driving on this vehicle.

[@minutemanmuster]

@@MikesCarInfo with the two tone steering wheel and dual charging pads this looks like the Calligraphy trim level which I have. Although this is not categorized as self-driving, (and technically it isn't) the lane keeping assist and adaptive cruise control both function as essentially the same thing. You must keep a hand on the steering wheel but it can be very lightly and the car will essentially do the steering and maintain speed and distance. The monitor camera mounted on top of the steering will detect if your eyes are off the road for too long. Great video. I love my car. My suggested lighting refinements would be that I would like to get the ambient lighting just a little brighter, and the built in navigation map is dark and unreadable to me so I rely on Waze through CarPlay.

[@craiplayz]

The front looks good, the rear.. not so much…

[@flows30]

The only ugly side is the back design, the rest of the vehicle is a god damn stunning

[@HabitualButtonPusher]

This is the first Santa Fe refresh I have NOT wanted to buy. Love all the tech, just too geometric for me.

[@davebenner3276]

I wish sales people did not do these narratives. “Everything is wonderful. Great.” If we could get a realistic, honest, evaluation that would go a long towards what I would like to hear. One can’t believe everything these guys say because they are trying to make money. I think the most honest evaluations come from Alex on Autos; there is also an Asian man who does auto evaluations but I cannot remember his name.

[@MikesCarInfo]

It is obvious that you haven't watched any of my videos including this one. I am not a sales person. I don't sell cars. I do not own stocks in any auto company. I do not get paid vacations from auto companies like Alex does. Honesty and objectivity is the reason people watch my videos.

[@Car_conversati0nz]

[@dillonh321]

You are clueless. Mike is not a salesman. Mike does not get any special treatment from manufacturers that Alex and Soyfan do.

[@killerkett]

this kind of german interiors msrp starts with 75k$ just a reminder

[@iwasadeum]

Absolutely. Looking to get an SUV, and immediately drove a $52K Genesis GV70 after driving a Santa Fe SEL (not even limited or calligraphy trim). The Genesis felt like it was not even a slight upgrade in interior quality. If anything, it felt lower quality. Also test drove a BMW X3 and Lincoln Nautilus (both coming in around $55K), and, again, same story. For fun, I also test drove a BMW X5 and a Lincoln Aviator (both optioned to over $70K), and it was then that I finally noticed the luxury brands felt higher quality than the Santa Fe. But certainly not a great enough difference to justify a $30K price premium lol. When it comes to luxury in an economy brand, Kia and Hyundai are leaps and bounds beyond everyone else under $50K.
