The Hyundai Santa Fe is a large seven-seat SUV that majors on comfort, space and equipment, with a long factory warranty that often still has time left to run. Every used Hyundai Santa Fe at Carsa has passed our mechanical and cosmetic checks and comes with a 90-day warranty. Finance is available on every car, and the representative example on this page shows the current rate.
What it's like to live with
The Santa Fe is a relaxed, quiet car to drive. The seats are big and comfortable, the third row folds flat into the floor, and even entry versions come with a touchscreen, heated seats and a full set of driver aids. Build quality is a step up from older Hyundais, and the cabin feels solid rather than flashy.
Engines and versions to look for
From 2018 to 2020 most Santa Fes were a 2.2 diesel with an automatic gearbox. From 2021 the range switched to a 1.6 petrol self-charging hybrid, with a plug-in hybrid alongside it. The hybrid is smooth, economical around town and needs no charging. The plug-in version adds a useful electric range for short trips if you can charge at home.
Which version should I buy?
Premium trim has almost everything most families want, including leather, heated seats and a powered tailgate. Ultimate adds a panoramic roof and a head-up display. Hyundai's five-year warranty transfers to the next owner, so a younger car may still be covered.
Is the Hyundai Santa Fe reliable?
Yes, the Santa Fe has a strong reputation for reliability, and Hyundai backs it with a five-year, unlimited-mileage warranty from new that passes to later owners. Check the service book to confirm it has been maintained on time, because that keeps the warranty valid. The hybrid system is well proven across Hyundai and Kia models.
Does the Hyundai Santa Fe have seven seats?
Yes. All versions from 2018 onwards have seven seats as standard, including the hybrid and plug-in hybrid. The third row is fine for children and short trips with adults, and it folds flat into the floor when you need the boot space.
Should I buy a hybrid or diesel Santa Fe?
If you mainly drive around town and on shorter trips, the self-charging hybrid is quieter, smoother and cheaper to tax. If you tow a caravan or cover big motorway miles, the earlier 2.2 diesel still makes sense and is very strong. The plug-in hybrid only pays off if you can charge at home regularly.
