2018 Hyundai Santa Fe has been officially unveiled in South Korea. Not just that, the bookings will also start from February 7, 2017 in Hyundai’s home country. This marks the beginning of fourth generation design language for Santa Fe.
Purist would have got their connection right as Santa Fe is inspired from the same design language that is seen in Hyundai Kona. A full width chrome bar runs across the front fascia. Overall design change is quite sporty as thinner eyes look perfect on that bold front end. They have used dual projector lights in the fog light housing.
