This Hyundai SUV Is Getting a Big Update
The Hyundai Santa Fe has long been a popular SUV for families and those who lead an active lifestyle. And for 2024, there are some big changes expected for this vehicle. The Santa Fe will soon be entering a new generation. And that means updated design language, more features, and likely a larger size.
What will be the 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe price?
It’s still unclear what the exact pricing of the 2024 Santa Fe SUV will be, but it is expected to start under $30,000. Of course, for higher trims like the plug-in hybrid variant, pricing will likely be closer to $40k.
Overall, the Hyundai Santa Fe has been an affordable SUV. But with the new generation, there will probably be a slight price hike. Hopefully, a higher price means more features and tech. But only time will tell what actually happens with the 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe.
When is the next generation of Hyundai Santa Fe arriving?
According to Car Scoops, the next generation of Santa Fe should arrive at some point in 2023. This Hyundai SUV has been available since the 2001 model year, and it is currently in its fourth generation. In some markets, it is available with a third row, but that is not the case in the United States. If you want a three-row SUV, it is better to look at something like the Hyundai Palisade.
In 2021, the Santa Fe did get a facelift. But for 2024, it will be getting a full redesign. It is expected to be boxier and feature more rugged styling. Spy shots of this SUV have been spotted, but nothing has been confirmed by Hyundai quite yet.
Should you wait for the next-gen Santa Fe?
If you want a new SUV, waiting for the 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe might be the right call. Although, that is not to say that the 2023 Santa Fe is not a good SUV. The 2023 model has a spacious cabin and offers plenty of features. It’s ideal for those who want an SUV but don’t need a third row of seating.
With the 2023 Hyundai Santa Fe, you can get a PHEV SUV. So that is pretty cool if you want to explore the benefits of an EV but don’t want to ditch a combustion engine totally. It’s entirely possible that Hyundai could introduce an electric Santa Fe. But once again, Hyundai has not confirmed much about the future of this vehicle.
Is the Santa Fe good off-road?
Although it looks like a rugged SUV, you probably should not off-road the Hyundai Santa Fe. This vehicle does offer available all-wheel drive so that you can handle some light trail work. If you are looking for an SUV that is good for things like camping, the Santa Fe is certainly up to the task.
For the next generation Santa Fe, that will likely still be the same case. If you really want an off-road SUV, look at something like the Jeep Wrangler or Ford Bronco. But keep in mind you will be paying extra for one of those options.
