Hyundai Santa Fe vs. The Competition

The Hyundai Santa Fe is a great midsize SUV option. How does it compare to some of the other midsize SUVs out there?

Hyundai Santa Fe vs. Chevrolet Traverse

The Chevrolet Traverse is another midsize SUV option. The Traverse is a three-row SUV, so it offers you slightly more cargo and passenger capacity than the Santa Fe, but the fuel economy is not nearly as good as that of the Santa Fe. The Traverse also has a smaller infotainment system screen and a smaller digital gauge cluster.

Hyundai Santa Fe vs. Jeep Grand Cherokee

The Jeep Grand Cherokee is another midsize SUV option. This could be a great vehicle if you are looking to go off-roading, but it does not have quite as nice of an interior as some of the other midsize SUV options.

Hyundai Santa Fe vs. Kia Sorento

Another midsize SUV option, the Kia Sorento is built on the same platform as the Hyundai Santa Fe. These two SUV options are similar in many ways, offering the same engines and similar features. The Santa Fe is a slightly more affordable choice, where the Sorento does allow you to opt up for a third row of seating.

Hyundai Santa Fe vs. Mazda CX-9

The Mazda CX-9 is another midsize SUV option. This vehicle has a lot to offer, and could be a great option, but it is likely to be more expensive than the Hyudani Santa Fe.

Hyundai Santa Fe vs. Hyundai Tucson

Looking to keep it in the Hyundai family? The Hyundai Tucson is another similar SUV. This vehicle is a slightly smaller SUV sitting in the compact class, but it also has two rows of seating and it has a similar cargo capacity. The Tucson does not have the turbocharged engine options, but it does offer you slightly better fuel efficiency and a more affordable price tag than the Santa Fe, so it could be worth checking out!
