It's incredible how much can change in a year. Your kid can grow six inches. Your favorite team can go from pretender to contender. You may even get that life-changing promotion at work. And, in Hyundai's case, it means drastic improvements in one of its already-popular SUVs, the Hyundai Santa Fe.
Even though the Sante Fe just underwent a redesign in 2021, it continues to make enhancements that make it fun to drive and a great-looking option to conquer any terrain. The 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe enters the new year with a mid-gen redesign that is sure to impress drivers. And heading to Northtown Hyundai in Amherst, NY, is a great way to discover them for yourself.
Comparing Exterior Design
With each passing generation, the Santa Fe brings new life and style to the road. 2024 brings a refresher to the exterior. Perhaps most notable is the longer wheelbase of the 2024 Santa Fe. A longer body equates to more passenger and storage room for your travels.
The hood reduces the overhang, cutting back on the excess and providing a more streamlined appearance. The upper grille includes a horizontal light bar and H-shaped headlights for a distinct look as you roll through Amherst, NY, on dark nights.
The 2023 Santa Fe projects a different demeanor when taking on the streets every day. The grille is bigger and bolder. It features double headlamps, which spectacularly illuminate the road ahead with confidence.
Interior Updates
The outside isn't the only place you'll notice a bit of a change. The seats of the 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe are wider and longer to provide more support for your long commutes and road trips. The second-row seats are fully foldable and should reveal what Hyundai claims is "class-leading" cargo room. Though specifics are light at this time.
The cabin of the 2023 Santa Fe is made with upscale materials and gives drivers an elegant driving experience in a completely affordable SUV. The 2024 Santa Fe anticipates carrying on that tradition and going even further with a modern feel with a fresh design. Early reports indicate seeing dual-12.3-inch screens on the all-new double-layered dash.
Though it isn't certain which trim levels this setup would be found in, it would be significantly larger than the currently available 10.25-inch touchscreen found in the 2023 Santa Fe. The 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster would broadcast your vital traveling stats with clarity in full view. A wireless device charging pad is expected to be available. And more in-cabin storage options are promised by Hyundai.
Under The Hood Updates
The 2023 Hyundai Santa Fe carries a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine. The 2024 Santa Fe shares the powertrain and its specifications. Both generate 191 horsepower and 181 pound-feet of torque to propel you through Amherst, NY. The eight-speed automatic transmission is smooth and reliable for an agile and effortless commute. The available turbocharged four-cylinder engine gives you 281 horsepower for a more confident trek through rush hour traffic.
There should also be very little change from the already-exceptional fuel economy of the Santa Fe. The 2023 model earned an EPA-estimated 25 mpg on the city streets and 28 mpg once you hit highway speeds. These numbers rank among the best in the midsize SUV class. You should expect nothing less in 2024.
