Used Hyundai Santa Fe Sport for Sale

The interior is another bar raised for Hyundai, with a shield of controls surrounded by the usual swoops and fluid curves. It's all trimmed in two-tone materials, an upscale touch that looks better when it's capped in glossy trim than in faux wood. The Santa Fe and Sport have the usual airbags (including a driver knee airbag) and stability control. Bluetooth is standard and a rearview camera is an option on all but the base model. Blind-spot monitors and parking sensors were new options are available. The Sport makes the usual Hyundai case for value. It gets power windows, locks, and mirrors; air conditioning; cruise control; tilt/telescoping steering; steering-wheel audio and phone controls; and 17-inch wheels. Daytime running lights and an auto up/down front passenger window are now standard across the lineup. The standard audio system is an AM/FM/CD player with satellite radio, USB and auxiliary ports, Bluetooth with audio streaming, and six speakers. A panoramic sunroof, Infinity audio, a hands-free tailgate, and an improved navigation system lift the Santa Fe Sport to a higher price plateau.

The pros of owning the Hyundai Santa Fe are numerous. It rides incredibly smooth and at 50,000 shows virtually no wear-and-tear. The audio system is incredible, with the speakers being able to balance bass and treble well. The volume also makes it so no one ever has a hard time hearing the music. Seat warmers in the front seats are also a plus, especially in the cold winter months. One negative would be the trunk space. For a truck so big, the trunk is surprisingly shallow. This is not a problem for me necessarily, but for someone who carries around a lot of equipment and needs storage space it might be. Equally concerning is the gas mileage on the car. Even on "eco" settings it only gets about 24-27 miles per gallon. While this is good compared to other trucks and SUVs, my 2000 Honda CR-V got about the same gas mileage, and I was hoping for more out of the new car. Lastly, the car handles the road well, but the steering wheel is a bit "loose." I do not know if that is the proper term, but it is really the only way to describe it. Another term may be increased wheel sensitivity. Basically, even the slightest movement of the wheel turns the car more than I would anticipate.

I absolutely love my Hyundai Santa Fe Sport. It's a basic model without any upgrades, but it is the best vehicle I've ever had. It has great miles per gallon. In less than 2 years, I've driven about 30k miles with no issues whatsoever. The car is extremely spacious, great for vacation luggage and groceries. The trunk as additional storage space under the flooring for cleaning products, etc. I live in a state that experiences heavy snow and ice during the winter months. I have never felt more safe in this SUV than I did in my previous two vehicles. It drives extremely well in all climates. As a business professional who receives calls throughout the day, I love the built-in Bluetooth option that was no additional charge when I purchased. I can use the hand-free option while driving, and it also works with playing music from my cell phone as well.
