It's a small SUV that may be an excellent value for some buyers. Here's a look at some of the most popular features available as well as some other things to think about.
Multiple Powertrains Available
The Santa Fe offers two powertrain options on many of its model years. For instance, the 2018 model of the Santa Fe Sport comes standard with a 185-horsepower, 2.4-liter inline-four cylinder engine. Optional is a 240-horsepower, turbocharged 2-liter inline-four. Each of these engines is paired with a 6-speed automatic. Front-wheel drive is standard; all-wheel drive is optional.
Top Interior Features
When it comes to the car's interior, the Santa Fe Sport offers many modern active features to keep you safe and make your drive fun. Active safety features for the 2018 model year include a Blind Spot Warning Accident Avoidance System, Remote Anti-Theft Alarm System, Smart Cruise Control command with Multi-View Camera System technology, Stability Control, and Emergency Braking Assist. Passive safety devices include rear door child safety locks, daytime running lights, and front and rear airbags. When it comes to in-car entertainment, a number of top features come standard. For 2018, these include AM/FM stereo, three months of provided satellite radio service, a USB connection, and six speakers.
Lots of Passenger and Cargo Space
Inside the cabin of the 2017 model, the Santa Fe Sport offers up to 39.6 inches of front headroom and 41.3 inches of front legroom. On the second row, the Santa Fe Sport offers up to 39.1 inches of headroom and up to 39.4 inches of legroom. When it comes to cargo room, the Santa Fe Sport gives you a surprising amount of space for a small SUV. The Santa Fe Sport offers up to 71.5 cubic feet of cargo capacity behind the first row. Behind the second row, the Santa Fe Sport gives you up to 35.4 cubic feet.
Low Mileage Rating
While the Santa Fe Sport is a small SUV, the vehicle doesn't have the greatest mileage numbers. The base engine, on the 2016 model, delivers a combined fuel efficiency rating of 24 mpg. On the upgraded engine, the rating is just 23 mpg.
Limited Towing Capability
The base model only has a tow rating of 2,000 pounds. If you want to get better towing, you will have to get a higher trim level of the Santa Fe Sport.
Replacement Parts May Be Hard to Find
The Santa Fe Sport ceased production after the 2018 model year. Therefore, you may have some issues finding replacement parts for the vehicle.

Size of fuel tank is unsatisfactory, range is limited.

2014 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport (2.4L) AWD
The only thing I would change would be to have the built-in Navigation because I don't like the Navigation provided by Bluelink. It takes too long to connect and the one time I used it for a long trip, it did not take me to the proper address and there is no way to physically enter the address, it's all voice-activated. Not a very good experience so I continue to use the GPS on my phone.

I love my new car and I'm very pleased with the purchase experience. I would have liked more cup holders in the front seat of the car. I would have considered navigation if it was more reasonable.

2014 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport (2.0T) FWD
Our daughter bought a 2010 Hyundai Santa Fe and loved it so we got this vehicle for my mother-in-law to drive. She did the research and decided this was the car for her so we gave it to her for her 80th birthday.
