These features ensure the safety of passengers, cars, and pedestrians on the road. The SUV’s safety rating has been certified by National Highway Traffic Safety and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.
Interiors, comfort, and everything else
The new Hyundai Santa Fe is known for its solid build quality and edgy designs. The interior is an attractive cabin that consists of features like a digital gauge cluster, ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, and a head-up display. Moreover, the generous spaciousness makes the new Santa Fe ideal for long road trips. The cargo space behind the rear seat can easily accommodate 15 carry-on bags and three additional bags with the rear seat folded flat.

Hyundai is one of the best when it comes to warranty and maintenance coverage. They offer a Limited and Powertrain warranty to cover five years or 60,000 miles and ten years or 100,000 miles, respectively. However, it is the maintenance cover of three years or 36,000 miles that sets it apart from its competitors.
