It is only people who never had a Hyundai say that. We have two Hyundais, and they are far reliable than a Fiat 500, and two VW Polos that I had.

I am not in the market for this type of vehicle, but I can see it doing very well. Maybe more so in North America where size matters. Great review as usual.

To all the stupid people who are saying “that’s looks like a Range Rover”. I’m 100% sure that the Santa Fe will last longer and have less mechanical issues and recalls than a Range Rover.

[@MG-ce3dx]

You're perfectly right , it will last longer than any Land Rover/ Range Rover but ,it still looks like they copied the design 😅 from the Land Rover Defender 😅

There is an off-road version of the new Santa Fe coming to North America market. The trim is called XRT.

[@squeezy99]

I fancied the Sorento, but when I saw the Santa Fe at the release event I realised this is the car for me. As soon as pre-orders open I'll be ordering one - AWD, HEV, light blue metallic.

It must be nice having that white privilege.

Stick with the sorrento

[@AliSidTex]

@@tonykulikovsky why? I'm asking because im also trying to decide between sorento, SantaFe24 and the sienna

[@ascott2168]

The overall design is slowly growing on me but the back just…it looks like Modok from Iron Man ! The interior is spot on 👌🏽

[@jakes5530]

I think color really makes a difference for this. White exterior with the “black ink” package looks awesome. Some of the other colors look bleh

[@alonzalbrown1883]

The color combinations and design of the interior is VERY beautiful. Im so in love with this redesign Santa Fe. It’s so fresh!

[@imdone1967]

A square design is fresh? 🤣

[@alonzalbrown1883]

@imdone1965 I mean, you say that as if they've used this same EXACT design before.

[@McGrogansSchool]

Landrover inspired. Very practical big SUV. Getting expensive though. Backside needs a cleanup:)

[@ConnorL-jb8eu]

They were so close with this one but the backend is unforgivable 🤮

[@matthewsalmon8194]

It looks like a knock off Range Rover - for prob about half the price and running costs..but most of its features

If the Chinese brought this out we’d all be criticising it as a Land Rover knock off

[@Renegade0812]

2009 Ford FLEX.

[@tolgaakyay]

The guy who was designing this car was on cocaine while designing the front, too drunk while designing the back.

[@ishaansaral502]

This car is a great entry for the European market, since we lack mainstream practical 3 row SUVs. The only choices are German and French, which end up being expensive for optional extras and less reliable. This will fit perfectly since minivans have died out and it is the largest car in its class which families will appreciate.

[@MrSimonBurgoyne]

Great review - shame there is only the 1.6l hybrid engine and no diesel for open roads / over taking / towing etc.

Looks like Hyundai took a page out of the Ford Flex design book. Not a bad end result.

[@jraheemjefcoat429]

I see nothing but G-Wagon in the back! I don’t mind the look at all. It serves a purpose for more cargo space.

[@dzmitrykuliashou1309]

And for me back design looks like renovated VW Transporter T3

hmm, i see more of defender like the overall looks, the steering wheel, interior all of it

[@nawafa4307]

The design in the back will translate much better if they make the light box signature a solid fill instead of the H pattern.

[@enriquelajara1686]

This will sell like hotcakes. I hate the back, but as a family oriented driving this could be the best.

[@ziauddinsiddiqui7769]

The backside looks like the "Scooby-Doo" van.

[@aboutjohntyree2913]

Back looks decent and minimalist. this New Santa Fe had good design, i love it❤

[@sevensixtysteve8662]

Lovely, a great looking vehicle. Seems to have jumped into the space where the Disco 4 used to be now JLR have abandoned their tonka toy design language. Looks good inside and out and it's only the crazily small engine I struggle to get my mind around - I'd probably feel a bit more comfortable with a 2.0 onboard. I like this a lot though.

[@okanulke6227]

1.6lt engine for 3rd row suv lol

[@shortfattoad7317]

You're missing the point, once the EU starts with the 'we must protect all citizens' malarky, cars will be limited to 112kmh, and side roads will have speed limits that will be constantly monitored. So fines galore. Forget long highway journeys, they will just not be allowed. Now you see where this is going? And not just Hyundai, Volvo has already complied in advance.

[@sbarneaionut]

Throw a 3L diesel engine with mild hybrid to be better in city and this will be a best seller.

[@RobinSingh-lf3iq]

Excellent presenter, love watching your videos!

[@Sgcarnut]

They knocked off the interior of the Range Rover and Jaguar Xf. Which is not a bad thing

i wish they also had a smaller size without the third row. As a single person i dont need all of that space, but I love the way this car looks. Definitlely giving Range Rover vibes without the price.

[@owenwest9508]

Did Hyundai say what the MPg vs MPe is for gas and Hybrid models.. They are saying March for USA Gas model , but Spring for Hybrid, yet most of the demos on KZbin overseas are Hybrids??

No trizone climate for thie price? No keyless opening using rear door handle?

Love it! even the back :)

[@henrikhook.]

The price-quality ratio is certainly better when compared to the previous 4th generation model!. Better premium quality. Hopefully also the pricing, the price is more competitive. 🤔

[@davidf6326]

How can you comment on the price-quality ratio, if you don't yet know the price?

[@tuffandco3745]

The back looks like an 80‘s VW Transporter/Vanagon. I quite like it.

Well, it's better looking than old model but without diesel engine i'm not sure they sell much of these in EU.

[@Vamanos46]

6:38 you have to use the physical key to unlock it. It's there for every model

[@isaacwright8303]

Think that’s massive, get behind the wheel of a new GMC Yukon XL. Also I think Hyundai should have done something like the lift gate of the bmw i3 or the Audi q7, move the light bar up and add a second set of stationary lights under where the lift gate opens.

[@juliandclarke]

Think I prefer the Kia EV9, if I needed a 6/7 seater

[@rinbine2713]

Why Hyundai invite a Hyundai hater?

[@VolvoMarkku]

Why is that no Hyundai-logo on the steering wheel? otherwise nice and gorgeous car, but I don't like that there's no Hyundai-logo on the steering wheel. I think that It would be a self evident in every car like seat belts etc. Maybe old Toyotas as exception where that was the model name instead of a Toyota-logo.

[@WSOJ3]

Ford should sue Hyundai for copying its Flex.

[@shortfattoad7317]

If they started that game, all manufacturers will be sued for something, like suing someone for having a round steering wheel.

[@teodortotev1113]

VW Sharan / Seat Alhambra is the ultimate 7-seater, offering 5 isofix seats, 184 ps, 4×4 and sliding doors.

No idea why this is being compared to a 5008? I mean its totally different. This I would say sits in the Discovery and possibly Defender market better than the "small" SUV range

Why do you need to adjust fan speed? Cars have had auto climate options for some 30 years now and the car will do it for you if needed. It will adjust the air mass temperature and fan speed combined as needed. It will automaticaly activate moisture blower, it will adjust to tunnels to activate circulation. I just can not understand why there is so damn much time spent on some climate controls while I can't even remember when did I last time change my interior climate settings. Maybe a month ja six ago or such and it is freezing winter here. Set to 21c summer and winter and Auto does everything needed. Only think I might wanna do is put a defroster on for windshield, but when thats deactivated car is back to Auto again.

[@zuti071]

Auto climate never works as i want. First it always turn on AC and raise fuel consumption, usually start blowing way too strog for few min... than i have to turn AC off... then i have to adjust where i want to blow... then i need to adjust fan speed that i think is ok for me at that moment. Only in rare occasions, maybe in summer i use "auto" in my car.
