Hyundai Santa FeOne of the fastest-growing vehicle segments is midsize crossover SUVs and it's easy to see why. They offer the style and functionality of a traditional SUV while providing the sporty ride quality, handling and fuel economy of a car. For a decade, Hyundai's offering has been the midsize Santa Fe.
There was a time when the only reasons to favor a Santa Fe over its competition were its low price, lengthy standard features list and Hyundai's generous warranty. Introduced for the 2001 model year, the first-generation model was affordable but failed to perform to the levels of its competition in most other areas. Thankfully, the all-new second-generation Hyundai Santa Fe is a big step up in terms of styling and performance. Highlighted by its contemporary appearance and upscale and roomy interior design, the current model is one of the better values in the $20,000-$30,000 price bracket of the midsize crossover SUV class.
