Due to go on sale across the UK in mid-April, the launch of the all-new Santa Fe marks a further significant development in the history of Hyundai, the world's seventh largest automotive manufacturer.
The Santa Fe was Hyundai's first foray in the SUV segment when it was launched in 2001. Now the all-new incarnation is equipped to propel Hyundai to the forefront of the global SUV market in terms of style, performance, packaging and, crucially, quality and reliability.
The new Santa Fe marks a pivotal moment for Hyundai in its forward-looking efforts to elevate itself to become recognised as a manufacturer of high quality, desirable cars at an accessible price.
Two power units are available: a new high-performance 148 bhp 2.2 litre VGT common rail diesel and a revised version of Hyundai's renowned 2.7 litre V6 petrol engine, with power increased to a mighty 186 bhp.
The new Hyundai Santa Fe is launched in the UK as a 16 model range, with a choice of three trim levels, two engines and five or seven seat interiors.
Significantly in the diesel driven SUV segment, Santa Fe diesel and petrol variants are priced the same.
On the road prices will range between £20,995 and £25,240.
