Seriously considering trading in my 4runner for this. Let’s face it, most 4runner owners are overtrucked. I don’t need it’s features, and shitty MPG. This is a great option for folks like me who have an adventurous family and need enough versatility to take an SUV in the woods, to the crag, or to soccer practice. Great warranty too, which gives me some assurance, since I’ll potentially be leaving the unquestioned reliability of Toyota.

@MachoCool558 6 месяцев назад

What a fun video. This car is such a mixed bag. It makes me think most buyers actually want a station wagon, but since we don't really have those in America you get an SUV.

Complaints here are from the same people who bitch that a Ridgeline or Ranger isn’t a truck because it doesn’t tow 14,000lbs when 99% of people need a truck to carry a handful of 2x4s, some potted plants or a mountain bike.

@rzero21 6 месяцев назад

There should be a way to transfer some of the mechanical components from the XRT to the Limited trim and above. Those cars could get a benefit with increased ground clearance... but reading at the comments, they're right. The Santa Fe isn't supposed to be an off-roader.

@josephpan858 6 месяцев назад

There is no skid plate and no option for one I can find.

@tfeltmat2903 6 месяцев назад

A pinto can do that trail wihout sweat

@AHungryHunky 6 месяцев назад

A pinto was built back when automakers understood that a Daily needs a little bit of clearance for whatever oddities you might encounter. I think one of the biggest killers of modern sedans is that they sit really low now, and are basically useless in areas where the roads are not the smoothest. Heck, every day on my commute home from work I used to hear a sedan scrape just pulling off the stroad I was on and into one of the buisness parking lots, just because the driveway was at a bad angle. First was the chin, then a heartbeat later the rear bumper, maybe some tire screech as it struggled to get traction when the bumpers had contact.

Just three minutes into this and the verbal gymnastics to avoid straight criticism of the vehicle and provide faint praise instead. 😍 “Looks more wild in person but not exactly the Rubicon trail”, “Not a soft roader either”, “clutch design a little controversial”, “no torque converter it slips in slow speed situations”. Anyone who said you guys have an easy livelihood, didn’t watch this video. 😃

@jameswatt5557 6 месяцев назад

FYI, it does not come stock with the skid plate. They added those for the event. I’ve looked at one and double checked the pics I took, and nope, no skid plate. It never mentions any skid plate on their website. However, it appears you will be able to buy one as an accessory, but they aren’t listed as one yet.

I dubbed this the "Defender Sport". It's just a light off-road version of the LR Defender with some G-Wagon elements. People can say Flex all day long. But let's be real here, Flex was not a global car. So, it's foreign to others. The Defender is known globally. Therefore, most people will gravitate to the Defender design than the Flex.

Hyundai design team making nice looking cars lately, cheers to them. I'd like to ask Hyundai to take off road more serious. For example, if they could make a version of this SUV, or maybe even a new model with 19 inches or more of suspension travel, they'd kill it. They have a HUGE opportunity to take market share from toyota if they can pull off a true off roader. Someone at toyota is smoking crack, their pricing for their new lineup of trucks/SUVs is RIDICULOUS. Sure many of us can afford it, BUT that's besides the point. We want value, not gimmicking crap that we really don't care about.
