Hyundai Santa Fe 2.2 CRTD Premium 5str
What is it?
HEAVILY updated version of Hyundai’s excellent large SUV. New Santa Fe gets a facelift with fresh lights all round and an updated grille, more upmarket cabin and a more powerful 2.2-litre turbodiesel engine. Priced from £21,495.
What’s hot?
- The engine. With 194bhp and 437Nm of torque it’s rapid…
- …and faster than Hyundai’s cautious 10.2 second 0-62mph time suggests
- Super smooth too and linked to a brilliant six-speed auto
- Alternator switches off when not in use to boost economy to 38.2mpg
- CO2 emissions not bad for a big SUV at 197g/km
- Facelift works well: looks assertive without being aggressive
- Horrible fake wood replaced by neat carbon fibre-effect trim
- Five seats as standard, seven seat option costs an extra £750…
- …either way there’s lots of space inside
- Decent equipment levels with standard iPod integration
- Plenty of off-road ability too
- Capable of towing 2,500kg
What’s not?
- Ride can be jiggly over uneven surfaces
- Digital displays still look a bit cheap
- Interior build quality not up to VW or Ford standards
- Only 10% writing down allowance
