HYUNDAI Santa Fe · photos, packages and modifications
There was a model introduced by Hyundai in order to rise the South Korean manufacturer brand by kick starting it, namely as Santa Fe. It became as more established brand along with the credible competitor sense. The third generation model of this car was built with the perfect formula and as impressive one. It was designed with more space for up to seven people, more style-conscious design along with high-quality interior as the best. Even though it was not available with the premium badge of the BMW X3 or Audi Q5, it had generous specifications and great-value price tag as practical one that could be handled well both on and off road. Compared to the latest Honda CR-V, it looks great and it is not a serious 4x4 that made it as a great large family car.
Because of the angular highlights available at the front, window lines that kick up in order to make it as running towards the rear of the body and a bold trapezoidal chrome grille, Santa Fe had got up with the smart and distinctive lines from Hyundai. Compared to other SUV models, this car was designed as more imposing one than a regular family because of its larger dimensions. Since the design was deliberately rounded one, it appeared as the one with less look of SUV than some alternatives. Even though it was not good looking one compared to Audi Q5 or BMW X3, it was designed as more distinctive compared to its sister car the Kia Sorento and Honda CR-V. The interior design was looking good, but the trim materials used in this car were not made from the same high quality plastics compared to others.
It had designed with only one engine option as a 2.2 liter diesel along with two gearboxes choices such as six-speed manual or six-speed automatic. Since this engine setup capable of offering 194 bhp, the Santa Fe became as the fast car of its size surprisingly. The manual gearbox acted as responsible one and covers 0-62 mph just in 9.8 seconds. The suspension of Santa Fe was designed especially for the UK roads by Hyundai and hence the ride is soft, comfortable and smooth on all kinds of surfaces. Trade-off of this car was quite a lot along with the body roll in corners. It is featured with good grip along with the four-wheel drive, which would probably ensure you get to go anywhere in any weather along with road ability. Even though the gearbox is notchy one, the rivals including the Mazda CX-5 offered out a sharper driving experience as the best one compared to this model.
This all-new Santa Fe model was received out a full five-star rating by Euro NCAP crash test. In the side barrier test, it received out the very impressive 96 percent for adult occupant protection as the maximum points. This is mainly because of the third-generation Santa Fe as featured along with the latest safety kit, side, and front and full-length curtain airbags. All versions of this model also came along with the seatbelt and ESP reminders. It was also designed as the one with providing reassurance in the case of four-wheel drive in both icy and wet conditions. The confidence in the mechanical robustness of Hyundai Santa Fe can be easily recognized through five-year and unlimited-mileage warranty options. If you sell the car to anyone before the end of warranty, then the new owner can get the benefits too. Even though the new Santa Fe hadn't received out any position in the case of Driver Power reliability survey, the Hyundai as a brand finished out the seventh in the 2012 results, which was probably more and ahead of more expensive cars including Volvo, Mercedes and Porsche.
The design of Santa Fe is good because of the space available in the second row and front seats along with the third row seats, which would probably be made out the car a viable alternative. This is treated as the best one for the people who want to go through something different to a boxy MPV. Even though the third row seats are not the easiest one to get into, they can be able to offer enough space in order to make short tips as possible even for adults. It had been designed in such a way to offer fantastic boot space of 969 liter in the case of seats in place, which would probably be raised to a cavernous 2,247 liter in the case of seats down.
In order to make out the most of this space, it is not necessary to go through the rearranging process as painful one. You can make it easily without any difficulty by dropping the second and third row chairs as flat with the help of pull of a lever or toggle. You can have this car as the one with four-wheel or two-wheel drive. If you are in need to go through the intelligent system to direct power for all the four-wheels, then four-wheel drive is the best option. Two-wheel can be selected at the time of no need of improved efficiency. It is designed as the one to offer towing capacity of 750 kg un-braked and 2,500 kg braked. Speed of the car can be limited with the help of a new Trailer Stability Assist System by getting through the braking individual and torque wheels.
