“The Hyundai Santa Fe gives buyers the style and the high driving position they want, along with the practicality, comfort and versatility they need. It can’t quite match the very finest seven-seat SUVs on offer, but it is a very solid all-rounder and worthy of any family’s consideration.”

“While the new Tucson PHEV is targeting the bulk of middle management user choosers, the Santa Fe could be a shrewd alternative for those who are prepared to give up the cache of a premium badge for better value and versatility.”

“It’s more practical than ever with a far smarter look, all the safety kit modern family buyers will want and doesn’t drive badly either.”

“The Hyundai Santa Fe is a pleasant and sensible workhorse, but this top-end model is far from cheap, and the high CO2 makes running costs harder to justify.”

“You could save a lot of money and buy a Skoda Kodiaq, but the Hyundai Santa Fe is a luxurious choice and comes with a lot of standard equipment. It’s comfortable and extremely practical, making it that little bit easier to justify.”

“The latest Hyundai Santa Fe represents a huge amount of progress over its predecessor. No longer is it just good ‘for the money’, it’s now a top-drawer SUV in its own right, easily worthy of taking on the Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace and Land Rover Discovery Sport.”

“It’s impossible to persuade Audi aficionados out of their status symbols, especially when their companies are paying for their cars. But anyone else really needs to take a drive in a new Hyundai Santa Fe before they commit to another big, luxurious £40k plus SUV.”

“Forget status symbols, the Hyundai Santa Fe makes a compelling case – although this top-spec version isn’t the best value in the range. Choose the right model, and the Santa Fe is a sound, sensible seven-seat SUV for those who seek practicality and peace of mind.”

“It is OK to drive and does the job as a seven-seat SUV, but a small boot and so-so versatility mean others do it better. Priced up against premium rivals, too, which means you’ll have to pay for the privilege – really, it’s hard to work out why you’d want to.”
