My Santa Fe appears to be a solid vehicle with many good features.

Overall I like the vehicle. Ride comfort is very good. The handling is good, but do to it's size it's not a "fun" vehicle to drive, but is is a good vehicle to drive. The build quality appears to be very good. I think there are too many "touch screen" controls that are small in appearance and difficult to see while driving (i.e.: fan control, heated seat control). I do like the seat and mirror controls. The engine runs well and the transition between battery power and engine power is quiet and seamless. The Santa Fe seems a little underpowered. I wished there mas a higher towing capacity. 1500 pounds with out electric brakes on a trailer is a little short of what I would like. I do find the width of the front seating space (not the seats) to seem a little confining. I think the upper tray between the driver and passenger seat may be a little too wide. I like the styling. I think there is a lot of very "usable" cargo room. Overall, I am happy with my purchase

Done right

Hyundai really got it right it with this car. A small 1.6L engine, augmented with the electric motor, has plenty of performance for any driving situation. Interestingly, the electric motor works alone at low speeds, and its torque pulls this vehicle up a steep grade easily. The interior is near perfect, with lots of storage space and compartments. We had it on two road trips (5,000 miles total), and it is a pleasure to drive.

2025 Hyundai Santa Fe Limited Hybrid review

Overall an excellent well-made vehicle with some shortcomings. Spare tire missing, some interior "glare" problems with sun reflections.

My Santa Fe Hybrid is a smooth running vehicle but has issues.

The cruise control has a major issue with the eye camera. While using the cruise control, the eye camera keeps setting the alarm off reporting that my eyes are not looking straight forward even though I am looking straight forward. Sometimes it’s Ok and sometimes it’s annoying. I sent the car to the Hyundai mechanics twice and they could not fix it. It’s unsafe to use. Also, I cannot adapt the garage door opener to our garage. This is the fifth Hyundai that I have owned and had no problems with the other four vehicles adapting. The vehicle is suppose to get 36 mpg mixed but I have only received at the most 29.8 mpg.

Love My 2025 Santa Fe Hybrid…But…

I love the way it feels. Suspension is great without being mushy. Seats, legroom, and headroom are more than ample for my 6’4”frame. Back seat passengers compliment me on the comfort. But: on 100% of first drives of the day, the engines (or transmission?) surges. Next: infotainment system can be really confusing - even just to bring up the radio. Next: I HATE having a 3rd row seat. In my precious 2022 Santa Fe, there was a ton of storage under the rear deck. Now - zero. There should be an option to not have that seat for those of us who don’t need it.

I am extremely happy with this vehicle

I have just over 2000 miles on my Santa Fe Hybrid and I really can't say enough good things about it! I got it in the tail end of a New England winter and it has handled the conditions very well. I am a huge fan of both the exterior and interior styling. The cabin is fantastically comfortable and the tech is a standout for the price point.

Loving the Santa Fe

We logged 2881 miles on a road trip. The Santa Fe was comfortable with plenty of space for our little dog and our typical over packing.

I do not see the gas mileage for the hybrid I was hoping for. I believe I'm supposed to be at 34 and I can't seem to achieve that.

Had issues at the start

Interior: The interior and technology are luxurious and top-notch. The tech is by far and away the selling point of this car. From the ACC to the personalization by driver, the placement of seat controls and charging outlets, the footrests, and the spaciousness, everything is top-notch. The one drawback is the seat comfort, which is a bit too firm for me. Exterior: It is a polarizing look, but definitely get used to it with some niceties like the handholds for climbing to the roof Enging: Less mpg than you'd expect for a hybrid, the gear shifting is extremely noticeable, and at times, a bit sluggish. Pickup is ok, certainly for the size of the car, but the mpg is not as advertised. City - I typically get 28-30; highway, I get 23-24. All in said, I am pleased with the car, but it has its issues. As someone who came from Honda for multiple previous cars, this was a bit of a step down in performance and reliability (I've been to the dealership 2x for fixes in under 3k miles put on the car) but a significant step up in luxury feel inside.

2025 Santa Fe Review

I like everything about this vehicle except the seats. The seats are terrible. I'm a large man and the seats are causing my right hip to burn and causes severe pain after about 15 minutes. I've had to buy a pad and seat cover to try to reduce the problem. My wife is small 5' 3" and about 100 pounds and the right passenger seat is to deep and causes pain on the back of her knees. Also, her seat does not provide sufficient cushioning and causes her pain. Another issue is the captains seats in the second roll. The seat are too narrow for booster seats. To buckle the seat belt I have to pull the booster seat to the side to access the seat belt latch. Other than the seats I find I really like this car. The hybrid drive is very smooth and quiet. The handling is quite good and the space is great.
