Waiting for Santa?

Hyundai’s sophisticated Santa Fe to arrive by year-end


The Santa Fe looks dimensionally bigger than the Tucson, which was Hyundai’s soft-roader challenger.

Just like the Tucson the Santa Fe will come with a potent common rail diesel motor that will develop 148bhp ensuring that power is never an issue.

Styling is sharp as well and the Santa Fe boasts a sophisticated look that should appeal to the urban youth.

The cabin is made from high quality materials and everything is neatly laid out.

Hyundai have used a combination of black, beige and faux wood on the dashboard of the Santa Fe and it looks quite nice. In fact the design could do justice to a car on a higher end SUV.

Expect goodies like 6-CD changer, steering mounted controls and climate control to be part of the standard package.

Hyundai could offer a 4-wheel drive as optional along with a seven-seater version with the last seats folding into the floor. Overall, The Santa Fe boasts competitive power, space, interior quality, and interior and exterior design at a reasonable price, things SUV buyers go for.

It will arrive before the end of this year and expected to retail between Rs. 22 and Rs. 24 lakh.
