Outstanding vehicle
This is not my first rodeo with Hyundai. In fact I have purchased 7 Hyundai’s from the same dealer, so I already had an expectation of quality, comfort and reliability.
We had traded my daughters 2009 Elantra for a 2014 Santa Fe in 2014 and she loved it. I was still driving a Sonata but I wanted something with a hatch for easy loading and unloading, (I won’t say I needed more space because the Sonata has an amazing trunk space!) and also for carrying taller items like furniture. So at that time I decided to try something new and got another brands wagon with a hatch back. I will call this the S car. I HATED IT. It was uncomfortable, didn’t have the features I had come to expect with Hyundai and was a rough ride. My husband hated it even more. So, back I went to my dealer, tail tucked, and traded in for a 2018 Santa Fe.
Ahhhh...:) Comfort, mileage, styling...what had I been thinking?!
I’m so happy to have all the latest and greatest safety features, comfortable multi adjustable seats, heated AND cooled; the heated steering wheel and the panoramic moon roof! Not to mention the handling is great, tight turns, smooth ride. I love the interior styling, as everything is where it should be, and there is a place for everything. The sound system is fantastic and I love the Apple Car play. I use the navigation a lot and it is the best I ever had. The interior is as comfortable as my Sonata, but the height of an SUV, which my husband prefers. So much better than the “S” car!
Easy open and close hatch (push button) and lots of room with easy to flip down seats. Rear seat comfort is great too and my passengers enjoy heated and reclining seats as well.
The best thing about my Santa Fe though, as in all my Hyundai’s, is that it starts every time. In all the Hyundai’s I have owned I have never had any issues. I change the oil, get the recommended service and rotate and replace tires as needed. That “S” car I tried broke in the first 60 days and the manufacturer denied coverage under the warranty. I’ll never leave Hyundai again! In fact hubby needs a new car and we are trying to decide whether to get another Santa Fe or a new Sonata.
Thanks Hyundai for making great cars with top notch safety and tech at a great price!
