These enhancements arrive just in time for the 20th anniversary of Hyundai’s longest-running SUV. Sold in Europe since 2001. As well as offering the option of a hybrid and plug-in hybrid powertrain for the first time, the new Santa Fe features a distinctive new design as well as a range of new technology and safety features.

The striking front end design of the new Hyundai Santa Fe stands out through its distinctive wide grille shape, embracing the main headlamp units. The accentuated 3D pattern of the grille mesh emphasizes its robust character and T-shaped LED Daytime Running Lights (DRLs) also reveal the turn signal as dual function. On the lower bumper, the robust skid plate embraces the lower air intake, forming a clamp shape and visually supporting the main grille architecture. To complete the powerful presence of the front end, the corners are dominated by vertically-oriented aerodynamic inlets to improve airflow efficiency and strengthen the upright and robust impression.

Wider wheel arch claddings and new alloy wheel designs, including a 20-inch option, dominate the side profile of the new Santa Fe. At the rear, the new taillight design with a red reflector band has been added to connect the taillights.

The new Santa Fe interior now provides more space, comfort, and convenience compared to the previous model. It features a new lower dashboard design, a redesigned centre console and a new 10.25-inch AVN touchscreen. The new floating centre console with shift-by-wire buttons is connected to the crash pad in a smooth curve. For the first time, the new Santa Fe comes with a Terrain Mode selector.

The premium interior updates are rounded off by a new 12.3-inch fully digital cluster. The new Santa Fe also offers an optional Luxury Package, a first for Hyundai. The trim’s exterior includes a dedicated 20-inch wheel design and front and back lower bumpers and side cladding which match the body paint colour, rather than matte black.

Following the popularity of the Kona Electric and Hybrid,Hyundai expands its electrified SUV line-up to its flagship SUV in Europe. The new Santa Fe is the first Hyundai in Europe to go on sale with the new ‘Smartstream’ hybrid and plug-in hybrid powertrain.

The new Santa Fe is the first Hyundai model in Europe and the first Hyundai SUV globally based on the all-new third-generation Hyundai vehicle platform. The new platform allows for significant improvements in performance, handling, fuel efficiency, and safety.
