Hyundai Santa Fe is gone. The new Santa Fe sheds its predecessor’s spherical form and road-focused attitude for squarer sheet metal that hides this SUV’s more dynamic nature. The current Santa Fe goes off-road more than its predecessors, even if it’s not supposed to compete with the Jeep Wrangler. However, Hyundai’s midsize SUV’s comfort and easy features will likely keep purchasers who prefer paved roads to unpaved roads buying it. Hyundai is “H.” Santa Fes have H-shaped features inside and out. This includes the dashboard arrangement, air vents, seat fabric, headlight, and taillight lighting. C-Pillar Handles The 2024 Santa Fe’s boxy design seems made for roof-mounted freight boxes or tents. Hyundai inserts grab grips outside the Santa Fe’s C-pillar to make it easy to grab whatever’s on top. With this more force, it should be more accessible than ever to lift your legs over the wheels, put your foot on the tire, and grab whatever is on the roof. Santa Fe UV-C Sanitation Hyundai offered a UV-C sanitizing tray in the 2024 Santa Fe because UV-C light kills many viruses and bacteria. The SUV’s central dash has two wireless charging stations where customers can swiftly clean devices. Third row Santa Fe automobiles will feature a third row in 2024. In North America, Hyundai’s fourth-generation Santa Fe (renamed Santa Fe XL for 2019) no longer has three rows of seats. The Palisade’s third row is more prominent, while the Santa Fe’s last row with reclining seatbacks is more versatile. La-Z-Boy-like recliners A third row makes the 2024 Santa Fe more adaptable, but the Relaxation Seat is the star. The Ioniq 5 and Santa Fe’s front seats have leg rests that raise like La-Z-Boys. Sleep in these seats instead of a roof tent (if you’re not driving).
