Very Impressed! — I love the look, the leather interior, the size, the inside lighting, and it is very safe and roomy for my growing family. It has proven to be very reliable to get me to and from work. There is still room in the backseat with my daughter's carseat to accomodate other passengers.

Its a superb everyday workhorse.

Cons

Typical Korean maintenance schedule.

Best Suv For Its Price. — Its a good Crossover SUV, Decent acceleration, I had to modify the tires width to get impressive handling. The stock tires does not give the confidence I need on the road. Major repair of undercarriage at 80,000. Easy to drive for an SUV. Runs on diesel, burns fuel like a car. Recline-able rear seats. Rear seats tumble down to increase cargo space.

Pretty Good Car — It's my moms car. It is pretty good, the power is pretty good too. But the engine could sound more "american" but I guess since it's a Korean car, that can't happen.

Middle Road Suv — It's a nice car for families, it has a smooth ride, it's spacey, and has some great options. However, the engine isn't so top of the line. We've had the car for over a year, and put quite a few miles on it, but it lost it's new car feel quite fast.

Liked It Better Than The Previous Model — Nicer than the previous -2005 Models. more space and very smooth, same engine as 2006 azera. the 2005 model was too smal (knees against dash), 2005 model had 4wd that was very noisy. did not like the back door either.

A Lot Of Suv For The Money — When we first settled on the Santa Fe I didn't love the look of it, but it's grown on me over the years. The interior is comfortable and looks good. I did like the 3.3L V6 as soon as I test drove it. I find the brakes a little soft, but I have no complaints about the handling, and we've had no major issues in 5 years and 63k miles.

Good Family Suv — 2.2 turbo diesel, economical, well made, good braking, handles well. Tows small camping trailers well, even pulled a stuck mid-size truck off the beach. 4WD comes in handy but not recommended as a 4WD vehicle. 7 seats are useful at different times.

Pros

3rd row seat, car-like handling, towing capability, loaded with features.

Cons

Gas mileage could be better compared to other small SUV's, wouldn't be good for a tall person.  100k warranty is not fully transferable.

Great — We're happy that we opted to get the 3.3 L V6. It has decent pickup. There's been no repairs needed yet. My wife preferred the look of the car over the Toyota Rav 4. It's a step up from the plasticy look of previous Santa Fe models. Handles freeway driving really well.
