2018 Hyundai Santa Fe Review 

In years past, the Santa Fe has proven itself to be one of the most versatile SUVs in the Hyundai lineup. However, in 2018, it comes with even more great amenities, more power, and added space for Bloomington, Martinsville, and Ellettsville drivers.

At Andy Mohr Hyundai, we’ve taken this SUV for a spin on more than a few occasions. And we’re going to share everything we’ve learned with you in this handy 2018 Hyundai Santa Fe review.

In a vehicle of this size, it’s only right that you’d have a hefty powertrain on your side. The 3.3L V6 found in the 2018 Hyundai Santa Fe can generate as much as 290 HP and 252 lb-ft of torque. With all that muscle, you can haul up to 5,000 pounds of cargo!

You’ll also have a 6-speed automatic SHIFTRONIC® transmission. This “manumatic” helps the Hyundai Santa Fe to maintain 24 highway/18 city MPG.1 That way, you won’t guzzle too much gas during long drives.

Hyundai Santa Fe Safety Ratings 

In this SUV, you won’t just have comfort for the entire family. You’ll have safety as well, starting with the many standard gadgets in the 2018 Hyundai Santa Fe.

The handling in this vehicle is especially precise, mainly due to features like vehicle stability management, electronic stability control, and the traction control system. They work hard to keep your vehicle on track, particularly when paired with the available all-wheel drive system.

However, there’s also some intelligent safety features available in the 2018 Santa Fe. To help boost your road awareness and reactive abilities, you could choose features such as Blind Spot Detection and Lane Change Assist.

2018 Hyundai Santa Fe Interior

If you have a bit of a bigger family, you’re going to need a vehicle with extra space. In which case, the Santa Fe ought to be a great choice. This 7-passenger SUV has a total of 146.6 ft3 of space for occupants, with 13.5 ft3 behind the third row for your cargo.

The Santa Fe interior also comes with the choice of leather trim or YES Essentials® Cloth trim. While leather is certainly a sleek and comfortable choice, YES Essentials® is stain-resistant, making it a better choice for kids. Regardless of which you prefer, they’ll both look great on your 8-way power adjustable driver’s seat with available heating.

There’s plenty of entertainment features for the whole family, too. Just up front, drivers will have a 7-inch touchscreen and 6-speaker audio system. You’ll have multiple options for connecting mobile devices, but our favorites are Android Auto™ and Apple CarPlay™.
