Hyundai Santa Fe 2.2 CRDi Ultimate 5dr 4WD Auto Review

The model
Read full Hyundai Santa Fe reviewThere’s loads to like about the Santa Fe, including its huge boot, seven-seat practicality and impressive roster of standard equipment. The regular hybrid will make more sense to most buyers, but the plug-in hybrid (PHEV) is a no-brainer if you're a company car driver. Either way, stick with Premium trim rather than Ultimate.
The trim
See full equipmentEven the most ardent hedonist might feel over-pampered by the Santa Fe in range-topping Ultimate form – it comes with such niceties as ventilated front seats and a panoramic roof. However, it is rather pricey. We'd stick with Premium trim.
The engine
See full engine specsThe 197bhp 2.2-litre diesel pulls well from low revs and has the best towing capacity of the range. Its 0-62mph time of 9.2sec is decent, but there are many other large SUVs that can beat this.
