HYUNDAI SANTA FE 1.6T HYBRID 4X4 CALLIGRAPHY
You might say that £55,730 is a lot of money to pay for a Hyundai. But it’s not much to pay for a house. And this is a Hyundai that’s the size of a house.
Or at least that’s how it looks. The first Santa Fe was a spongy and rather unpleasant thing. The second was a quantum leap forward in every way. The third and fourth did everything well apart from be noticed. And now they’ve gone and built the Tate Gallery on wheels.
Unbelievably, actually, the new Santa Fe is only a couple of inches longer than the previous one. Equally unbelievably, it has the same wheelbase as the Kia Sorento, whose engines and platform it shares. It just shows what car design can do, because even after three decades of pointing out to people that our big, clumsy Nissan Patrol was actually smaller than their slinky little Jag XKR and so on, it still twists our melon to look at the new Santa Fe and think that it’s just a
normal sized SUV.
