The 2009 Hyundai Santa Fe ranks 14 out of 29 Affordable Midsize SUVs. This ranking is based on our analysis of 39 published reviews and test drives of the Hyundai Santa Fe, and our analysis of reliability and safety data.
Redesigned in 2007, the Hyundai Santa Fe is a value-priced family hauler that just doesn’t stand out in a competitive segment. It delivers safety and value, but can’t match the performance of competitors.
“Santa Fe offers impressive room, build quality, and standard safety features, all at competitive prices,” says Consumer Guide. “Hyundai’s generous warranty is another value plus. Santa Fe needs more zip, and some buyers may appreciate a better ride and handling balance, but many people should find this a satisfying 2008 Recommended choice.” For 2009, the Santa Fe gets standard USB and iPod inputs. Also consider the Saturn Outlook and Toyota Highlander.
The Santa Fe comes in three trims — the GLS, SE and Limited — with either a 2.7-liter or 3.3-liter V6 engine. All-wheel drive is available.
