2008 Hyundai Santa Fe GLS AWD

Equipped with automatic all-wheel drive, the 2008 Hyundai Santa Fe GLS AWD provides extra assurance on slippery roads, but cannot be taken off-road. A 2.7-liter, 185-hp V6 comes only with a 4-speed shiftable automatic on the AWD version; no manual transmission is available. Combined with 4-wheel disc and ABS brakes, electronic brakeforce distribution, stability and traction control, 16-inch alloy wheels, and dual front and side head airbags for both rows of seats, the 2008 Santa Fe GLS AWD earns five stars in crash tests. A tire monitor and halogen headlamps are also included.

Despite being the entry-level trim for this mid-sized SUV, the 2008 Santa Fe GLS AWD comes with power windows, locks, and mirrors, remote entry, wheel-mounted cruise control, intermittent front and rear wipers, tilt and telescopic steering, four power outlets (one in the cargo area) and 8 cupholders â?? four for each row. The CD player/radio features MP3 playback and a 90-day trial of satellite radio. Rear seats split-fold flat 60/40, opening up the cargo area to 78 cubic feet. The cargo area features tie-downs, and a tray and net can be added. A standard roof rack provides more storage options. Option bundles add heated seats and a sunroof. Standalone options include a first aid kit, mudguards, and a tow hitch.
