New 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe Review “The Overkill"

[@MotorgraphWorld]

Check Out Genesis GV80 & GV80 Coupe Review by Mari: kzbin.info/www/bejne/r6CXhZ6VpLeEZsU

[@JabariParkerr]

So happy I ended up passing on 2023 Hyundai when I found out they would be revamping the 2024 model. It’s turned out to be more than I could have ever imagined. 100% spoiling myself for my bday next summer

[@michaelvella8511]

Huge transformation that's miles better then the previous gen. That's the success of Hyundai, they keep impruving exponentially .

[@dparis2172]

I was looking at buying a Santa Fe next year, but this new design is a step in the wrong direction. I wanted a larger 2-row than my Tucson, not something with a (cramped) 3rd row.

[@hewydewy2164]

@@dparis2172these a Palisade for that 😏

[@SanthoshKumar-ye3sh]

@@dparis2172 Hyundai will give that option too on the new Santa Fe that's what I came to know from an another review.

[@NileshR12]

The current generation Calligraphy model looks incredible though. Have you seen it?

[@dparis2172]

@@hewydewy2164 Yes, why buy this instead of a proper 3 row like the Palisade?

[@michaelkenny4124]

Hyundai absolutely smashing the design at the moment, some of the best easily.

[@mihaipredescu]

Hyundai Santa Fe and Hyundai Palissade are, in general, for american taste. But I love soo much what they did with the new lines of designs, but still keeping an overall conservative look. I myself love the boxy designs on the SUV's/Trucks but also right angled lines on sedans (with rounded edges as low as possible, due to the aerodynamics necessity, of course). So, Hyundai: WELL DONE!!!

[@drunkenwhiskeyeu]

Looks like a Land Rover (which was designed in Europe), but is for American taste :) Come on, man. We in Europe also want to enjoy nice cars that can move things/families. Shame on KIA for only bringing the smaller base Sportage over here...

[@pomijaime]

Your demonstration of Santa Fe makes me want to have it! Great job!!!!

[@MotorgraphWorld]

Thanks for watching :-)

[@BruiserFL]

Great review. Interesting design. I keep getting a Ford Flex vibe from the front view. Overall, a really nice suv. The seats look quite comfortable. Hopefully, Hyundai can address the wind noise you speak of while driving. Hyundai really put a lot of nice touches for the passengers. Having HVAC control in the 3rd row is a great touch. Also, I noticed that the driver and passenger seat backs have built-in hooks for grocery bags, purses, etc.

[@mss627]

I love the way Hyundai and Kia are willing to take styling risks,, some are hits like the Ionic 5, some are complete whiffs like those creased body panels the Elantra and "eat at joes" neon accents on the K5. This one is a hit, I think. Now if they could just do something about their shoddy reliability record.

[@DeuteriumLicious]

i think their reliability is in line with most other Asian carmakers, which is to say pretty dam good. Best warranty in the biz too.

[@SanthoshKumar-ye3sh]

The new facelifted Sonata too looks great..

[@cwg73160]

Risks? Tf are you talking about? Did you even watch the video? Look at the rear of the car and tell me which styling risks they’re taking with that design.

[@msalzberg4962]

By "styling risks," do you mean once again ripping off designs from other manufacturers? Because that's what Hyundai / Kia / Genesis do: They make copies of other cars. Shameless.

[@jigglejigggleee8765]

What are you talking about they are insanely reliable ???

[@jaxson4950]

That was very impressive review, I have ever seen! Keep up the good job 💯

[@MotorgraphWorld]

Thanks for watching :-)

[@d15z1sux]

Hyundai always continuing to innovate

[@duMaurier15]

I have always been a big fan of boxed SUVs. Fell in love with the 90s Cherokee, Wranglers, Tahoes. The 24 Santa Fe will definitely be something im going to look to buy.. Hopefully new car prices will go back down 😅😅. Deciding between this and Ford Bronco Sport.

[@420hansol]

test drive both, I didn't really like Bronco so I am waiting on this one to test drive

[@tommies3772]

Beautiful vehicle. Love how you explained the details of the suv in full. Very informative. Ty.

[@karlfarrugia1204]

I can see lots of Range Rover lovers changing to the new Santa Fe, I love it.

[@Everythingisgoingtobealright]

Nobody buys a Range Rover for quality or features. Range Rover buyers are only interested in status, Hyundai offers none.

[@al151]

@@Everythingisgoingtobealright bingo. They want to show that they have money. I would rather buy an Audi or MB instead of a Land Rover.

[@Everythingisgoingtobealright]

@@al151 Audi is so far ahead of the others it’s crazy. An SQ8 is probably the best driving vehicle on the market. I’m not sure I’d want to own any of them out of warranty, but I’m broke so it isn’t going to be an issue.

[@kjcl90]

Lol. No.

[@MunnaBhai7777_]

Very nicly explained . Mari Cho ,You have a very soothing voice . I like the vehicle .Front seats look very comfy . The color combination is great. Horse Power is reasonable . Just can not wait to see the vehicle in person.

[@MotorgraphWorld]

Thanks!

[@rajansps434]

Hyundai is in a different level now ❤😮

[@rileysfreeman]

Her saying it’s not photogenic is wild. It looks GREAT. The rust orange or copper colour wasn’t the colour to use though.

[@andreiradu1945]

From the side it looks like a defender. I have to appreciate that this model does not have sloped trunk, I hate it when manufacturers take away precious space in favor or design.

[@kenfeinfield407]

It's just the opposite......the designers provided for even more interior space (read my above post).

[@romeropostali520]

2009 FORD FLEX!!

[@cancel.lgbtq.6892]

I love this SUV but the only complain I have is the H design in head lights. Hopefully Hyundai will refresh with something similar to Kia Telluride with the rectangular around head lights.

[@Tully3674]

Good report. Looking forward to seeing it in the U.S.

[@geocam007]

The recent models of Hyundai vehicles including this one look like inspired or came out straight of Minecraft game. Those boxy body and pixelated lights just have that feeling of it.

[@angieoo13]

Great review Mari! Love that you notice so many details. Did you find out what that front holder above the passenger seat vent is for? Does anyone know? I'm really curious now😅

[@MotorgraphWorld]

[@MsBaztastic]

I've liked this vehicle since I first saw it.

[@sow_scout4989]

In the same. I was not too interested when it was first revealed. But after watching videos on those that got their hands on, its grown on me and i love it.

[@EdgarRenje]

Very nice review, Mari! I like it a lot. The only thing I dislike is the very low position of the rear lights. Overall it has some similarities with a Land Rover.

[@romeolopez757]

Until now old generation person cannot get over with the low rear lights….its a modern design and now legal as far as the law is concern….if you are a good and educated driver for you to see clearly the signal light follow the right distance as simple as that…if you cannot see the back tires of a car in front of you its not the right distance….driving school FYI…

[@Luke-PlanesTrainsDogsnCars]

Yes ...rear end reminds me of Ssangyong Rodeo ..which is never a good thing...LOL.

[@zemjo8807]

Agreed..they bringing back those old school boxy kinda style. But for me they should have just wait another few more years, its just that Land rover and toyota have just did it too.

[@kenfeinfield407]

The low back lights were designed that way to provide additional width in the rear hatch and cargo area, thereby maximizing the rear cargo space@@romeolopez757

[@jakes5530]

Is there an auto start/stop disable switch to turn it off? I dont see it anywhere

[@johnbayern6519]

I love the interior so much 🔥

[@afokabest]

Never understand the reason to separate tail and signal light, much more the position is too low for my observation.

[@johnherrera7551]

I have to see it in person. Hyundai did a total relaunc of the Santa Fe, taking it into the future.

[@jimsmith5502]

You better be aware when you buy a new Hyundai and need it serviced, the dealerships service departments are telling people they are months out to get you in for service and then when you drop it off, they are telling people its up to 5-7 days before they look at it. So you will be without a vehicle for a week or 2, that's if your vehicle is under warranty. It took us more than a month to get a oil change. Some dealers are telling Hyundai owners if they didn't buy it at their dealership, they wont service it until next year, So if your car breaks down and wont start, Hyundai wont repair it, if they do its 8 months out. The deal is they are selling more vehicles than they can service, so if your new vehicle breaks down, you may be without your Hyundai for a months. That's in Austin and round rock Hyundai in Texas.

[@nitroxide17]

I think it’s photogenic

is it just me but does anyone feel like the rear light is in wrong possition? it should have the same height as the logo

[@jasonkim4334]

[@willcookmakeup]

Oh wow. This interior is actually super premium looking

[@MotorgraphWorld]

Yes! That's the point of this car.

[@thamer-1991]

🚨🚨🚨🚨 Thank you madam 🌹 for this great report about the car, which frustrated us at the same time. From the side, the car looks beautiful .From the front, it reminds me of 80s cars. The interior, it took the luxury stamp from its sister Azera. But the biggest problem for me, and for many people, is the rear design, which frustrated me a lot. Hyundai should reprimand the designer for the ugly work he did on the rear design. This designer made the Santa Fe a visual distortion from behind on the roads. If the car is not sold as expected, know that the reason (the rear design) will make the buyer think 1000 times before buying this car and think about other competitors of the same class.

“It’s just not photogenic” 😆😂 Some of us def can relate 😆

[@САВАРХ]

Дизайн 80-х годов. Руль где-то у англичан видел. Оформление салона - супер аскетичное. Выглядит в той же стилистике как грузовчики у киа. Место под телефон, как в ванной мыльница. И цвет, и форма. Жесть какая-то.

[@mohalim9015]

Great. Better still with a horizontally-split rear tail-gate: so sensible and practical.

[@hagnerlands]

The best design ever for a SUV

[@swissmrkc]

Mari is good at pointing out design details but one thing surprisingly she didn't catch she kept talking about the crosses.....like they are (t) the letter T but actually those are H's and there's tons of H's front lights....signifying... Hyundai .

[@eto2352]

I don't understand why Hyundai and Kia place the taillights and turn signals so low on the rear bumper. In tighter traffic, it's much harder to see the turn signals. Especially when people look at the red taillights, expecting turn signals to appear there. It seems like a less safe design choice.

[@MrRaitzi]

For the trunk opening be so big

[@420hansol]

official statement is that they had to give up the location of tail light to give more bigger trunk opening

[@eto2352]

@@420hansol strange because the taillights are built into the trunklid. Kia also does this with other models like the Soul.

[@420hansol]

@@eto2352 Well that was the statement by the Hyundai so I don't know.. perhaps they did that to save the cost

[@eto2352]

@@420hansol Thanks, not questioning your comment just thinking out loud on Kia's logic for this. Oddly, it bothers me so much! LOL

[@R1S0.]

i love that green 0:54 and also i like that matte brown behind that orange 1:05, its ultra rare... but i would choose 100 percent green. 4:29 i take that just as a gimmick, i saw multiple review and everybody just grabbed the roof rail.... as this c-pillar handle is too low. 5:07 those rear turn signals are deal breaker, i dont know why they cant use the same nice huge H-turn signal like in the front.... but small, low placed lines. dangerous. interior and dashboard are lovely.

We all know nobody in Korea would even think about getting that Orange lol. When i visit Korea I still get amazed that every car colornis white or black or gray haha

[@AndresAndrade.]

Awesome design ! 👍🏻👍🏻

[@Slimecrazy234]

This car looks best in lighter colors, don't agree with the gray. The green, white, and orange are the best. Issues I have with the design are mostly in the back, the turn signals low in the bumper is an annoying thing that only Hyundai seems to do, and the letters for Santa Fe are written in huge font, but probably necessary to break up the flat expanses of sheet metal back there.

[@drunkenwhiskeyeu]

Yup, if there's one option in the online configurator I do miss, it's the "without the model name". I hear they will have to redo the tail lights for Europe or US due to regulations? Or is this what the international (not Korean) model will look like?

[@don.timeless4993]

i always love boxy with retro design SUVs! i hope it comes with PHEV version made with range extender generator, like INNengine amazing tech! the only disappointment is the dct gear🤦‍♂

No way that vehicle costs $36K USD. I’m already getting a Palisade XRT ($46K) but would gladly trade in next year if it were really that cheap!

Low trim or Mid-trim should be about 36k, if you choose highest trim level, it will be more than 40k, probably 45k.

In S. Korea, prices may seem cheap when expressed in dollars due to exchange rate issues.
