Not sure what this question means?

We recently drove our new Santa Fe 2400 miles on a multi state trip. Performance was outstanding! Gas mileage outstanding! Comfortable! We absolutely love our Santa Fe! And no road noise!! Cargo capacity was also amazing!

So far so good. Love the gas mileage.

I wish I had the option to not get the third row, as I don't use it. I wanted the heads-up display that I had before, but you do not offer it in the Limited edition. I wanted the Calligraphy but you did not offer the Brown Leather interior. I will look at other brands when my lease is complete.

A good value for the money, but a few steps needed.

The Santa Fe handles as expected and gives a smooth fairly quiet ride. A few features need tweaking, though. The backup camera isn't protected from weather enough and is often unusable in rainy or snowy weather. The seats on the SEL could use just a little more padding as they are too firm for folks who don't bring their own padding. I find the control panel not well set up and confusing. After owning 4 other Hyundai models, the cruise controls are now on the left side and radio right, reversing the previous set up. There needs to be more evidence of the Blue Link app on the control panel, I don't want it only on my phone.

So far so good. I love driving it

I love driving my car. I love the roominess inside. I had looked at one other car before the Santa Fe and am really glad I made the decision that I did. The horn volume seems to be a little wimpy would be my only bad thing about it.

Great vehicle.

Enjoying my 2025 Calligraphy Santa Fe. Rides well and all the technology is wonderful! Enjoy cruise driver assist, it basically drives itself! Love the large screen and wireless charger. Car starter works great and seats warm up fast.

2025 Santa Fe Calligraphy Edition

I love the body style of this vehicle. Some of the features don’t always work as expected (like it doesn’t always lock when i lock it, and end up having to use the app, the hatch randomly opens, sometimes it tells me it can’t see my face when im looking straight forward)

Glad we bought it.

The longer we own it, the more we love it. It coverts from luxe to sport in seconds and we are learning to trust the tech features. We are excited to leave on a trip to Canada in a few weeks. Glad we bought it.

It does it’s job

It gets me to go where I’m going but not my favorite vehicle purchase. There are several things I have found since purchasing that I do not like. The sleek look is what I liked but features are not all there.

It's still too new to tell

I'm still learning all the bells & whistles of this vehicle. I have yet to do much highway driving--next week will be the BIG test. So far, I am very happy! I only wish the vehicle had been better prepared for delivery. Most of the protective film and stickers were still on the vehicle, the windshield still had the suction cup marks on the front windshield. Not sure if this an acceptable practice for Florida, it isn't for Maine.

My forever vehicle

Every creature comfort you will ever want and many more you didn't know you wanted. There isn't anything left to desire once you put it in drive. It is amazingly smooth, comfortable and safety conscious. I never thought I needed it but now I cannot live without it. The Santa Fe Calligraphy set the bar high.

There is nothing that this vehicle cannot do.

Every creature comfort and safety mechanisms are well thought out and placed within reach. However some controls are confusing. I've searched videos and the manual to no avail. Even my dealer couldn't figure it out

The Most Luxurious Affordable Vehicle You’ll Ever Own

I absolutely love this SUV. It’s luxurious, it’s packed with cutting-edge tech, it’s shockingly affordable, and it’s just pure joy to own and drive. Hyundai knocked it out of the park with the 2025 Santa Fe, and if you’re even thinking about getting one, don’t hesitate. You’ll fall in love just like I did.

Good quality for the price.

I love the features and the livable loan. The safety is helpful in traffic. Yesterday I was driving in traffic. The traffic stopped suddenly. The warning sound came on. And I stopped. A accident would have occurred. Loading items in the rear is easy w the 2nd row seat buttons to make them go down.

Kept it 3 months and traded it in.

I went back to Toyota just 3 months after purchasing a 2025 Hyundai Santa Fe Calligraphy. It died the very first morning and I was unable to even open the doors to access the car. Later found out from forums, it was because of the app. Deleted the app and all worked after that.

Great interior

I chose the 2025 Santa Fe because it has a third row seat. But I got a lot more than that. The dove gray interior is bright and beautiful. It drives like a dream and I feel extremely safe due to 360 camera system. I expect it to be very reliable based on my experience owning a Hyundai Palisade. My reason for the 4 star rather than 5 star rating is the trouble I had getting Bluelink connected. It took 3 months to remedy the problem.

2025 Santa Fe Hybrid

Meeting or Exceeding Expectations! The styling is great! I have the black with tan interior. Plenty of room, great technology and a pleasure to drive. I am getting 31 mpg, mostly highway, but I expected better but have come to realize the mileage efficiency increases after 10k mileage break-in period and also I would actually get closer to the claimed 38 mpg if I were doing more local mileage and leverage the battery more. Overall, great car!

Santa Fe 2025

Excellent warranty on the 2025 Santa Fe hybrid. Rough transition when going from electric to gas. Rear exterior of the car is an ugly box but the front looks sharp. Difficult to get in and out of the 3rd row seats unless you go in and out through the lift gate.

Got it all

It’s like they polled a million soccer moms about what’s they’d want in an SUV and then added all of the features! Definitely worth the $ to splurge on the Calligraphy trim. Love all of the customization features.
