Hyundai Santa Fe SE: Baseline Performance and Safety

2021 Hyundai Santa Fe TrimThe Hyundai Santa Fe SE is the base trim that offers a lot to be excited about. It packs plenty of power under the hood with the standard 2.5L inline 4-cylinder engine that produces 191 horsepower and 181 lb-ft of torque. In front-wheel drive models, the Santa Fe achieves an EPA-estimated 25 city/28 highway MPG, while all-wheel drive models earn an EPA-estimated 22 city/25 highway MPG to help you stay on the road longer.¹

This five-passenger SUV features a 8-inch touchscreen infotainment display screen with Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ integration for music streaming. As you stay entertained in your Santa Fe, you’ll also be able to stay relaxed knowing you’ll be protected.  Some of the safety features you’ll be treated to on this baseline level include:

  • Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with Pedestrian, Cyclist, and Junction-Turning Detection: Measures the distance between you and frontal obstacles, warning when you’re following too closely. If needed, it will apply the brakes to help lessen the effects of an impact or avoid a collision altogether.
  • Lane Keeping Assist and Lane Following Assist: Detects unintentional sway to help you stay on track. If needed, it can apply gentle steering corrections to help you stay firmly within your intended lane.
  • Driver Attention Warning: Alerts you to drowsy or distracted driving and urges you to take a break or make a quick coffee run.

Hyundai Santa Fe SEL: Added Comfort and Protection

Looking to upgrade interior comfort in the 2021 Hyundai Santa Fe? The Santa Fe SEL provides an extra level of comfort with the 8-way power driver seat with 2-way power lumbar. Choose from an array of seating options to get the support needed to combat driving fatigue when you’re behind the wheel—even on lengthy road trips. Additionally, both front seats are heated to give you and your passenger more warmth on chilly winter evenings.

The SEL also gives your safety systems an upgrade, adding in the following technologies:

  • Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist: Monitors your side blind zones and warns when it detects another vehicle, so you’ll know when it’s safe to change lanes.
  • Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist: Alerts you to approaching vehicles when you’re backing out in a busy parking lot.
  • Safe Exit Assist: Warns when vehicles are approaching your parked car, so your passengers know when it’s safe to leave the car.

Hyundai Santa Fe Limited: An Enhanced Interior

2021 Hyundai Santa Fe DashboardThe interior of the 2021 Hyundai Santa Fe Limited places a large emphasis on comfort by adding 4-way power lumbar and a leg cushion extension to your driver’s seat. To help you have a more enjoyable journey in the summer, this trim is also armed with ventilated front seats that work to cool you down after an afternoon in the sun.

Your back-seat passengers will also be given an added comfort boost with heated rear seats with high and low warmth settings.

In addition to being comfortable, the Limited gives you a power boost with a 2.5L turbo 4-cylinder engine that delivers 277 horsepower and 311 lb-ft of torque. Thanks in part to Idle Stop & Go, this motor still maintains an impressive EPA-estimated 22 MPG and 28 MPG highway when equipped with front-wheel drive.¹

To ensure your dynamic drive is also ultra-secure, this trim level offers the following safety technologies:

  • Surround View Monitor: Utilizes cameras placed around the exterior of your SUV to provide a comprehensive view of your surroundings to assist you in maneuvering and parking.
  • Blind-Spot View Monitor: View your side blind zones to ensure it’s safe to leave your lane.

Hyundai Santa Fe Calligraphy: Top-of-the-Line Refinement

The 2021 Hyundai Santa Fe Calligraphy trim levels boasts all the amenities of the Limited trim level but adds on some finer touches. To start, the exterior is outfitted with a dark chrome accent front grille and premium door trim. The exterior is then finished off with special 20-inch allow wheels with a unique design that’s sure to delight the eye.

This level of sophistication continues inside with quilted Nappa leather seating. This material is specifically treated to be softer and plusher than other leather and is usually only found in luxury vehicles, so it’s a real treat in this SUV.

Looking for the very best in technology? Then you’ll love the heads-up display this trim offers. It projects essential driving information onto your windshield. That way, you won’t need to take your eyes off the fast-paced road to view your current driving speed, equipped safety system warnings, and turn-by-turn navigational directions.
