2024 Hyundai Santa Fe Design Deep Dive

The 3-row 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe is getting big buzz. Radically different from the last generation, it's as square as the outgoing model was rounded. For design enthusiasts, here's a look at the press launch styling presentation. Kevin Kang, head of design for Hyundai North America shares details of how the Santa Fe was developed. It’s just like being at an automotive event. Some think Santa Fe looks like a Range Rover Defender, others the late great Ford Flex. At the event, we drove loaded AWD Calligraphy model with a 2.5-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine. A more fuel-efficient hybrid is now available. Check out competitors Kia Sorento, Mazda CX90, Toyota Highlander, and Subaru Ascent.
