When you set out on a new adventure, you should be confident that your SUV will be ready to overcome whatever stands in your way. The Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid has all that—and more—ready to take you on a thrilling journey, and it will help you save money and time at the gas station, too.
When you look under the hood of the Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid, you’ll see a 1.6L turbo engine ready to rev up and take over the road. Combined with the 270V lithium-ion battery, it’s a smooth-driving motor that has what it takes to make downtown drives easy and highway adventures exciting.
| Net Horsepower | 231 HP |
| Torque | 271 lb-ft |
| Transmission | 6-speed automatic with SHIFTRONIC® |
When the weather turns severe or when you need more control for an off-road rendezvous, the HTRAC All Wheel Drive system provides more traction on various low-friction surfaces. Everyone knows rugged weekends are more fun with recreational toys, so bring along your jet ski or ATV...the Santa Fe Hybrid can handle it. When properly equipped, it can tow up to 615 kg (1,356 lbs.) of extra gear for your weekend of R&R.
The hybrid system of the Hyundai Santa Fe supplements traditional gas with an electric motor to dramatically boost fuel economy. It’s a subject that every driver has a stake in, as a vehicle that gets more litres per 100 kilometres is a wise investment for all the years ahead.
The Santa Fe Hybrid arrives on the scene with an impressive and efficient system. It earns an estimated 6.8 city/6.9 highway L/100 km when properly equipped.* Since it’s paired with a 67-litre (17.7-gallon) fuel tank, you’ll be able to drive far between pit stops. With the Santa Fe Hybrid, you can envision a world that features more streamlined mornings and more weekend trips, all without interruption.
You and your family will spend a lot of time inside the cabin, which means it should be designed for long-term comfort. The Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid is just as impressive on the inside as it is while cruising down the highway. Everyone on board will find something to appreciate whenever you return for the next ride.
A roomy cabin is better for everyone, especially when your whole family is along for the ride. Everyone in all three rows will have enough space to stretch out and settle in for a long trip, so every seat will seem like the best seat. Let’s explore some of the seating arrangements offered by the Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid:
|
Dimension
|
1st Row
|
2nd Row
|
3rd Row
|
|---|---|---|---|
| Headroom | 1,045 mm (41.1 in.) | 1,030 mm (40.6 in.) | 958 mm (37.7 in.) |
| Legroom | 1,052 mm (41.4 in.) | 1,075 mm (42.3 in.) | 761 mm (30 in.) |

| Hip Room | 1,436 mm (56.5 in.) | 1,395 mm (54.9 in.) | 1,084 mm (42.7 in.) |
With 413 litres (14.6 cubic feet) of space behind the third row you’ll have lots of room for stowing luggage, shopping bags, and sports equipment. You can easily fold down the rear seats if you’re packing a lot of gear for your solo adventure. That will open up to 2,267 litres (80.1 cubic feet) of cargo volume to use as you need.
All seven passengers will have space to enjoy inside the Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid. The available 8-way power driver seat with 2-way lumbar support lets you find your ideal position for the next trip. The standard heating and dual-zone automatic temperature control will keep you and your copilot suitably comfortable regardless of the outside temperature.
Your passengers will also have plenty of opportunities to enjoy the ride. Rear Seat Quiet Mode is a revolutionary feature that mutes rear speakers, allowing you and your copilot to catch up on a podcast while those in the back rest quietly. The integration of an optional wireless charging pad helps ensure your device stays charged, no matter how many kilometres you may roam.
A smarter drive also includes having intelligent tech at your fingertips. You’ll find state-of-the-art systems that make driving more engaging and secure. The Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid will quickly become your friends’ favourite SUV for group trips.
As you buckle up and get ready to ride, you can stay connected and in control thanks to a variety of intuitive infotainment features. The standard 12.3-inch touchscreen is centrally located for easy operation, and its expansive size makes it easier to glance at different options while on the go. Standard Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ support allows you to seamlessly bring your favourite apps and more to the screen.
Once connected, you can perform function like:
- Send and receive audio text messages so you’re always in the loop.
- Launch compatible apps to check your team’s score while on the go.
- Place a mobile coffee order to streamline productivity in the morning.
- Send turn-by-turn directions from your phone to your SUV.
All these capabilities, and more, can be performed without touching your phone. Staying connected, safe, and entertained...talk about a win-win situation!
Anything is possible out on the road, and you’ll want to be prepared for whatever might happen. This is especially true when your family is travelling with you—safety is always a prime concern. That’s why the Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid comes standard with Hyundai SmartSense technologies, including features like:
- Blind-Spot Collision Warning
- Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
- Lane Following Assist 2
- Driver Attention Warning
- Safe Exit Assist
This suite of driver-assistive systems acts as an intelligent copilot that keeps an eye out for you on all sides, helping ensure greater peace of mind when you’re behind the wheel. With the Santa Fe Hybrid, safety expends beyond the highway. The Parking Distance Warning feature features front and rear sensors to help you conquer even the trickiest parking manoeuvres with ease.
