Ed's take: The acceleration of the manual Santa Fe is better than that of the automatic. The shifts on the autobox are rather sluggish. But it is still good enough for an automatic.
This vehicle is incorporated with a four cylinder based diesel mill that is available with both six speed manual as well as automatic transmission gear box. The trims with manual gear box are capable of achieving a top speed of 180 Kmph, which is rather impressive. At the same time, it can break the speed barrier of 100 Kmph from a standstill in nearly 9.8 seconds. While the automatic variants can consume about 11.5 seconds to cross the speed mark of 100 Kmph, which is quite thrilling for the passengers sitting inside the cabin.
Ed's take: The 2.2-litre CRDi engine on the Santa Fe is powerful. The automatic transmission also has sport mode, however it misses out on paddle shifts.

The 2WD MT variant is skilfully coupled with a six speed manual transmission gear box, which distributes the engine power to its front wheels. While the engine of 2WD AT and 4WD AT trims are cleverly mated with a H-Matic six speed automatic transmission gear box, which sends the engine power to its all wheels. It is incorporated with a common rail based direct injection fuel supply system, which enhances its mileage.
Ed's take: The mileage of the Santa Fe isn’t that great. It will be somewhere between 8-11km/l, depending on the manual or automatic transmission, when driving in city.
This powerful diesel engine is integrated with a common rail direct injection system, which enhances it fuel efficiency. Its automatic version is capable of delivering a maximum mileage of 14.6 Kmpl, when driven on highways and gives about 11.3 Kmpl in city traffic conditions. Whereas the trims with manual transmission gear box can produce a mileage of about 8.35 Kmpl within the city and 11.72 Kmpl on expressways that is quite good for this class.
Ed's take: The power produced by the Santa Fe is good on paper, and by this it is the most powerful in its segment.
This DOHC based diesel power plant has the ability of generating a maximum power of 194.3bhp at 3800rpm and yields a peak torque output of 420.7Nm in the range of 1800 to 2500rpm. The maximum torque output in automatic trims comes to 436.39Nm that ranges between 1800 to 2500rpm that is quite good for Indian road and traffic conditions.
Ed's take: The Hyundai Santa Fe comes with touchscreen infotainment system, Bluetooth, and all other jazz in the music system. This is the first Hyundai to get a touchscreen system. We wish that the screen of the screen was a little bigger.
This lavish and classy looking sports utility vehicle is now available with a sophisticated music system, which has an 8-inch touchscreen display. this infotainment system supports flexibility of both a DVD slot as well as a USB port, Bluetooth streaming, voice recognition and six speakers that enhances the ambiance of its internal cabin.

Apart from these, exteriors can decorated with headlight and bonnet protectors, splash guards, hood air deflector, fog light kit, door visors, rear spoiler and many other such aspects.
Ed's take: The handling of the Santa Fe is probably the best amongst all the Hyundais currently sold in India. It even has ESP as your guardian angel.
The car maker has given this vehicle a proficient braking mechanism, which is further augmented by anti lock braking system along with electronic brake force distribution. The front wheels of this Hyundai Santa Fe model series are equipped with a set of ventilated disc brakes, whereas the rear wheels get conventional set of solid drum brakes. The 4WD AT trim is equipped with hill start assist along with down hill brake control function also. On the other hand, its front axle is assembled with a McPherson strut, while its rear is fitted with a multi-link type of mechanism. The high end trim is bestowed with electronic and vehicle stability management function that adds to the driving comfort. The cabin is incorporated with a power steering with flex steering function, which helps in customizing the steering wheel according to the driving style of the person. Then the advanced traction cornering control system distributes the driving force braking power to all four wheels. This steering wheel supports a minimum turning radius of 5.35 meters, which is rather good for this class. It comes with tilt and telescopic adjustable function, which makes it easy to handle even in peak traffic conditions.
Ed's take: The Santa Fe gets ESP, ABS and multi-airbags in its safety feature list.
For a stress free driving experience, the car manufacturer has bestowed this luxurious utility vehicle with a lot of protective aspects. The entry level and mid range variants have dual front airbags only, while top end trim gets side and curtain airbags for better protection in case of any crash. It also has ISOFIX point. The advanced engine immobilizer prevents the vehicle from theft and any unauthorized entry. It has three point seat belts for all passengers wherein front seat gets height adjustable belt and it also has driver seat belt reminder notification on instrument panel.

The top end variant is also equipped with electronic stability control, vehicle stability management, hill start assist and downhill brake control with rollover sensor that adds to the safety quotient.
The flared up wheel arches are equipped with an elegant set of 18 inch alloy wheels, which gives the side profile a sporty appearance. These rims are further covered with 235/60 R18 sized 'puncture resistant' tubeless radial tyres. These big sized tyres help in controlling the vehicle on slippery roads. The company has also given a full size spare wheel, which is affixed in the boot compartment with all other tools required for changing a flat tyre and it is a standard feature across all variants.
