2005 Hyundai Santa Fe GLS review from North America
"Performs well and delivers the goods"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
No troubles so far.
General comments?
This is a fun vehicle to drive.
More peppy than CRV and quieter ride and more feature packed and better warranty.
Leather seats are harder than expected and could use a better grade of leather.
No choice of leather colour, grey is your colour, but better than black.
Gas mileage is nice on highway, but not to good in city (awd always on).
Styling is dated, but not bad after you get used to it.
Nice little truck, people need to get over the 1984 Hyundai reputation. It's a new ball game.
