Power and Performance
With any new SUV, it all starts with what comes under the hood. The Hyundai Santa Fe is equipped with a 2.4-liter that outputs 185 horsepower and 178 pounds per feet of torque. It's paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission with SHIFTRONIC® and comes standard with front-wheel drive but does have the option for all-wheel drive on every model in its lineup.
The Santa Fe XL near Houston offers a 3.3-liter V6 engine that can put out 290 horsepower and 252 pounds per feet of torque and it mated with a six-speed automatic transmission with SHIFTRONIC®. It also has the capability for all-wheel drive but comes standard with front-wheel drive.
Interior Enjoyments
When you buy a new SUV like the Santa Fe or its cousin, you're getting something that really lets you embrace personal space on those drives home to The Woodlands. With the former, the interior is roomy with 110.7 cubic feet of space and plenty of legroom in the back and front to stretch out. The Santa FE XL puts in a third row of seats for up to seven passengers and a total passenger volume of 146.6 cubic feet. The third row is perfect for those with larger families or those in need of bringing your kids and their friends to the big football game.
Sometimes, you need something that can handle those larger shopping trips, or you need the room to help get supplies for that next big home improvement project. You can get up to 71.3 cubic feet of cargo space in the Santa Fe or 80.0 cubic feet of cargo space in the Santa Fe XL to take on all challenges.
