Our take on this /// Verdict

The Hyundai Santa Fe Diesel 4x4 Automatic is a compelling choice for those seeking a luxurious, feature-rich, and capable SUV. Its exterior design is European-inspired and sleek, making it a head-turner on Indian roads. The interior is loaded with features such as keyless start, auto lamps, auto wipers, and a touchscreen infotainment system, though some users have noted the rear view mirror could be improved and the front passenger seat lacks height adjustment. The 2.2-litre diesel engine delivers robust performance with good pick-up and fuel efficiency, and the six-speed automatic gearbox is smooth and efficient. The ride quality and handling are excellent, making it a pleasure to drive both on highways and in city conditions. However, its important to note that while its a capable 4x4, its not designed for extreme off-roading.

Price

In India, the Hyundai Santa Fe Diesel 4x4 Automatic is priced around Rs. 31.74 lakh ex-showroom. When you factor in the on-road costs, including taxes, registration, and insurance, the price can go up to around Rs. 37-40 lakh, depending on the state and local taxes. This places the Santa Fe in a competitive segment against other luxury SUVs like the Toyota Fortuner and Ford Endeavour. Given its extensive list of features, powerful engine, and comfortable ride, the Santa Fe offers good value for money, especially for those who prioritize luxury and practicality.

Latest Updates

Thursday, 21 November 2024 03:01 PM The 2025 Hyundai Santa Fe, although not available in a diesel variant in many markets, including India, continues to impress with its turbocharged 2.5-liter inline-four engine. This engine produces 277 horsepower and 311 lb-ft of torque, paired with an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. For those needing all-wheel drive, it is available across most trims, except the XRT which has it standard. I think this engine and transmission combo offers a great balance of power and efficiency.

Tuesday, 15 October 2024 12:10 PM Hyundai has not announced any plans to introduce a diesel engine for the Santa Fe in the Indian market. Instead, the focus remains on the turbocharged petrol and hybrid options. This decision aligns with the global trend of transitioning towards more environmentally friendly powertrains. I believe this shift is crucial for reducing emissions and meeting stringent regulatory standards.

Friday, 20 September 2024 09:45 AM The 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe features a distinctive squared-off, rectilinear body design, which has been well-received for its modern and rugged look. This design, along with its spacious interior and advanced safety features, makes it a compelling choice in the SUV segment. The absence of a diesel option, however, might be a drawback for some buyers in India who prefer diesel engines for their fuel efficiency.

Sunday, 25 August 2024 06:39 AM Hyundai has emphasized the importance of safety in the 2024 Santa Fe, equipping it with a full suite of active safety and driver assistance systems. These include automatic emergency braking, blind spot warning, lane keeping assistance, and adaptive cruise control. While these features are beneficial, the lack of a diesel 4x4 automatic variant remains a notable omission for some potential buyers. I think the safety features are a significant selling point, but engine options are crucial too.

Wednesday, 10 July 2024 09:21 PM The 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe boasts a longer wheelbase than its predecessor, providing more legroom for second-row passengers and a more spacious interior. However, the absence of a diesel engine in the lineup might affect its appeal in markets like India where diesel engines are popular. I believe the increased space is a big plus, but engine variety is key.

Saturday, 15 June 2024 10:37 PM Hyundais decision to not offer a diesel engine for the Santa Fe in India is part of a broader strategy to focus on petrol and hybrid powertrains. This move is in line with the companys efforts to reduce emissions and comply with increasingly stringent environmental regulations. I think this is a forward-thinking approach, but it may not resonate with all buyers.

Monday, 20 May 2024 10:37 AM The 2024 Hyundai Santa Fes interior is praised for its striking design, big dual-screen display, and abundant storage nooks. However, the lack of a diesel 4x4 automatic option might limit its appeal to buyers who prefer the torque and fuel efficiency of diesel engines. I believe the interior is a highlight, but engine options are vital for market success.

Thursday, 25 April 2024 06:36 AM Hyundai has highlighted the Santa Fes towing capacity, with the XRT trim rated for 4500 pounds with trailer brakes. While this is impressive, its worth noting that this capability is not available with a diesel engine in the Indian market. I think the towing capacity is a significant feature, but it would be more appealing with a diesel option.

Monday, 18 March 2024 06:55 PM The 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe features advanced technology, including a 12.3-inch fully digital gauge cluster and Remote Smart Parking Assist. Despite these innovations, the absence of a diesel 4x4 automatic variant in India might be a disappointment for some buyers. I believe these tech features are impressive, but engine choices are crucial.

Tuesday, 20 February 2024 08:57 PM Hyundais new Santa Fe has been redesigned with a focus on family-friendly features, including a three-row, seven-passenger capacity and ample cargo area. However, the lack of a diesel engine in the lineup, particularly a 4x4 automatic, could impact its popularity in certain markets. I think the family-friendly features are a big win, but engine options matter.

Mileage

Thursday, 21 November 2024 08:35 AM The Hyundai Santa Fe Diesel 4x4 Automatic offers a mileage of approximately 13.01 kmpl, according to ARAI ratings. In real-world conditions, this can vary slightly based on driving habits and road conditions. However, this mileage is quite respectable for a vehicle of its size and capabilities, making it a viable option for those concerned about running costs.
