The all-new Hyundai Santa Fe SUV features a large tailgate and spacious interior that offer best-in-class terrace-like space, made possible by a lifestyle-based design.

Hyundai Motor Company has officially released pictures of the all-new Santa Fe mid-size SUV, marking the first significant update since 2018. The fifth-generation Santa Fe has now evolved into a bigger and bolder SUV with a refreshed exterior and a new more spacious interior, still carrying forward its signature 'nature-meets-city' appeal.

Hyundai hasn't provided any details on its drivetrain, Santa Fe's predecessors were fuel powered but looking at the current trends in the market we expect it to be either a hybrid or an EV.

Exterior Design Of The Upcoming Hyundai Santa Fe

The Korean carmaker has designed the new Santa Fe with a sturdy and elegantly designed exterior, Santa Fe boasts a bigger rear cargo capacity that caters to outdoor lifestyles and urban activities more effectively. The new design of the Santa Fe features a boxy shape and a distinctive stance because of its lengthy wheelbase and bigger tailgate area, the car gets geometrical design elements all over the body.

From the front, the new Santa Fe looks massive because of its high hood, the vehicle gets H-shaped headlamps with an illuminated light stripe joining both headlamps. It features a unique mesh grille and the fender design has sharply defined wheel arches. The lower front bumper features an H-motif that compliments the H-shaped headlights and increases the visual appeal. These H-shaped design elements symbolize Hyundai’s ‘H’ emblem.

The new Santa Fe's rear design features a larger tailgate, which adds to its overall simplicity while maintaining a balanced exterior design. The H-shaped taillights at the back also complement the front H-lights. This distinctive design gives the car a unique and recognizable road presence. A long and bold roof line accompanied by roof rails, and muscular fenders fitted with 21-inch wheels contributes to the robust look of the SUV.

The interior has been crafted and optimized with an emphasis on spaciousness and functionality. The large tailgate when open, provides users with a terrace-like space that can be utilized whenever, wherever or however you require while the fully foldable second and third-row seats provide class-leading interior space.

The interior and exterior colours of the car are inspired by natural light, highlighting its unique character. These hues not only add inspiration to daily activities but also add vibrance to your outdoor activities and city travels.
