I had that 1.6T in my 2019 Kia Optima EX. I put 136,000 miles on it in 4 years and it always ran flawlessly. Not only was it powerful for its size, but it was quiet and refined when cruising on the parkway. It also pulled up every upgrade without downshifting. I’d buy this Santa Fe Hybrid just for having that engine.

We’ve been looking forward to your review on this trim level of the Santa Fe as it’s the one we’re most interested in with the Hybrid. It seems to check a lot of boxes, even the boxy shape and controversial design elements. We’ve had a 2017 Kia Sorrento that we enjoyed and currently have the Kia EV6 GT-line which we’re happy with. We’re looking for a road trip vehicle and the gas mileage on this would be great as well as the comfort and many upgraded tech features. We wish we could be excited about the latest Honda Pilot because of their reliability but find the exterior and interior styling lacking as well as no hybrid available. Appreciating your reviews, hope your Santa Fe is once again repaired and that you have no further issues!

When you are telling people in your review which button(s) to push to open the sunroof(s) it would be nice to actually show which button you are pressing rather than just showing the opening of the sunroof. I purchased a 2024 Santa Fe Calligraphy about 2 months and don’t remember being shown where the buttons are to open the sunroof are and of course the salesman is now too busy. In addition, the screen where many of the buttons are like the ac and the fan speed are impossible to see on a very sunny day. Badly designed.

Why do most companies use 6 speed trans on hybrid models?

@0pelman 2 месяца назад

It's the wide-ratio version of the old A6MF2 they've been using for 15 years. Sturdy and dependable. The 8 speed is evolved from this unit but has more internal friction due to the extra clutch pack but still only applying two frictions per drive ratio. With the electric motor in place of the torque converter, there is ample torque and the steeper first gear isn't needed - so the 8 speed ratios are not necessary. Although the 8 speed has a slightly taller overdrive, the difference in economy would be negligible versus the added cost and increased friction it would bring to the table.

@tails300 2 месяца назад

They don’t, most other companies like Toyota, Honda, Nissan (overseas) use what’s called an eCVT in varying ways to achieve better response and efficiency. It pairs 2 electric motors together with a gasoline engine, in the case of Honda and Nissan the engine works as generator for the traction battery (only the e-motor drives the wheels). In Toyota’s version it allows the engine to drive the wheels together with the e-motor as well as operate in generator mode (Toyota’s system is considered the best). This transaxle has less moving parts than traditional stepped automatic and provides superior fuel economy, it’s also more EV (instant torque) like in the way that stepped automatic isn’t.

@0pelman 2 месяца назад

@@tails300 The Toyota system does better in town but not as well on the highway due to limitations of the HSD being unable to run in EV at very high speeds. They tweaked the HSD in recent years to overcome the limitation but the Hyundai setup still has its advantages. The Hyundai system places the motor before the gearset so the motor torque is multiplied through the gearset to provide more acceleration without firing the engine. The Lithium Polymer battery can charge/discharge at a faster rate without damage so this Santa Fe can run in EV in a wider range of conditions than the comparable Toyota. My daily driver is a '23 Elantra hybrid and it offers 70-90mpg in suburban commuting. My sister - who learned to drive by watching the last ten minutes of the movie "Thelma and Louise" - is getting 50-60mpg in her 2021 Sonata hybrid. The Sonata setup is the closest to the Santa Fe layout, while the Elantra uses a simpler motor setup with an automated manual transmission. Nissan has no hybrid setup although they licensed the Toyota HSD about a decade ago. The current Honda system is much closer to a serial hybrid - like the old diesel locomotives - and doesn't have the fuel economy potential of the Hyundai or Toyota systems.

This is the only Santa Fe I would buy because the Hybrid has the Six speed transmission not the dual cultch transmission which I would not buy to many problems.

Hyundai/Kia cars sure are flashy and full of gizmos but your experience with your Santa Fe and other quality control issues still reek of 20+ years ago.

And what happened to your own Santa Fe with the broken transmission? Was it fixed? Replaced? Did Hyundai asked you to not publish or comment any further?

I have a 2021 palisade. We drove the new Santa Fe. It just doesn’t live up to the price. With that 4 cylinder engine turbo. It’s not a smooth drive and it’s loud inside. They have some ways to go with this car.

@kenyaswallow5782 2 месяца назад

would you say 2021 palisade is better than new santa fe in terms of driving?

@kbond002 2 месяца назад

@@kenyaswallow5782 the new Santa Fe drives likes a compact SUV instead of a Mid Size SUV. The V6 is so much responsive. I like the way my 2020 Santa Fe drives over the new turbo. My palisade feels so much better. It’s a different class though. I just don’t like the price tag and the feel of that turbo. Drive it. You’ll see.

@Sara-cq3ny 2 месяца назад

I don’t know how it compares to a palisade, but I traded in my rav4 hybrid for the Santa Fe hybrid and the Santa Fe is a much smoother ride than the rav4.

@zachjackson9484 7 дней назад

I might be alone here but I think it’s a shame the top trims of most of these 5+2 midsize SUVs default to captains chairs and a lower overall passenger capacity at the top trims because of the captain’s chairs. I understand they’re more luxurious, but not having the flexibility of that bench with a middle seat and the ability to load up the rear with cargo I think is a bummer. Sorento, Pilot, Highlander etc all seem to do this without the choice to add back a bench so you’ve got to sacrifice some of those most exclusive features.

@@JohnLee-db9zt Yes, Sir. Stats 1 and Stats 2 The problems with Hyundai/Kia are all over. From the shitty dealer experiences to the neverending recalls to the unreliability of the engines. How do I know? I had one and never again. It is not surprising to me to hear about a transmission failure with 27 miles after purchase. Sure, this is bad luck and it can happen with any brand. But this Hyundai and it is not surprising.
