Good but could be a little better
I have greatly enjoyed the Santa Fe. We have one of the base models. It is very well equipped, has a smooth ride and quiet cabin. Love that the 2nd row fits our 6'2 son extremely well, especially on road trips. Only negative I have is the gear shifter placement, bad spot. I have hit it thinking it was the wiper blades and nearly shifted gears mid drive, NOT good. Other downside is 2nd row vents are terrible placed, front ones are not the greatest either but not as bad as 2nd row. 3rd row is good, and it has a separate controller for that row. Lastly, the phone charging area gets direct hit from sun and I have had to charge using the cord to hide my phone from overheating. Outside of this, it is comfortable, great ride, dependable and the 3 year comp. maintenance plan is terrific.
