Hyundai Santa Fe 4x4 2.2 CRDi Premium 5st Auto 5dr Review

For The Hyundai Santa Fe 2.2 CRDi Premium 5st is the luxury trim in the Santa Fe range, adding leather trim, larger alloys, climate control, electric seat adjustment and roof rails to the basic spec.

Against Five-seat versions miss out on some useful kit, like self-levelling suspension, while the automatic gearbox makes this model less frugal than the manual version.

The Hyundai Santa Fe 2.2 CRDi Premium 5st is almost the most expensive Santa Fe, and we think other models in the range represent much better value.

Buyer's notes

Target Price team says:

There's only one engine in the Santa Fe range, a 2.2-litre diesel, so the big choice is between the five- and seven-seat versions. However, we reckon it's worth going for the extra versatility of the seven-seater. True, the rearmost seats only suit kids, but when they're not being used, they fold away into the floor, so the seven-seater is every bit as practical as the five-seater in five-seat mode.

Like all Hyundais, the Santa Fe has a five-year unlimited-mileage warranty (the only 4x4 to do so), but for it to remain valid, body inspections must be carried out by an authorised Hyundai Dealer 12, 36 and 60 months after the first registration of the vehicle - and you have to pay for them.
