2002 Hyundai Santa Fe GLS review from North America
"Great alternative to other import SUVs"
General comments?
Clock at head level position is very awkward. This has been addressed in more recent models that now have the clock on the radio console.
Nice turning radius. Very easy to park compared to our Maxima.
Seats don't fold perfectly flat in the back.
Very thirsty engine with a small gas tank.
Excellent all around. Great value. Drives great, looks great, lots of space and cargo room.
