Great video. People should be aware that matte paint requires entirely different care than gloss. You CANNOT take it through an automatic car wash (it will scratch) and you NEVER wax matte paint. If you are not someone who enjoys (or can afford ) regular auto cleaning then matte finishes will not likely be a practical choice for you. You may want to research ceramic coating to see if you want to go that route as an added layer of protection, scratches on matte paint cannot be repaired or buffed out. This is the exact model, color and trim package I've ordered, I'm expecting delivery next month and I'm going into it with my eyes open about the cleaning regimen.
And I would inspect it up, down, left, and right when it arrives to make sure there’s not a single flaw! 🤣 You chose a beautiful color. Enjoy your new SUV!
I just use touchless car wash.
@@YTYTYTY7 I'm thinking that in the winter a touchless car wash may be the best option for a quick clean. Have you taken your car through regularly and do you notice any difference in the matte finish? Do you have a ceramic coating, I've read that the harsh chemicals in touchless can weaken coating. Sorry for all the questions, I just want to benefit from other peoples' experience
I went to my local Hyundai dealer last week and asked about one of these. And they said that their dealership is offering 3 years worth of car washes that are included with a new purchase of one of these.
@@grnoodleman that’s brilliant. What a great way to get people in and hey why not combine it with a service appointment. Keeps the customer coming to their dealership
And yes, I would buy the Hyundai Santa Fe calligraphy. Even though it's too expensive. I don't care about the price. It's about the luxury that's in the car if I had kids that would have been the perfect car for me
Get the original the Defender
I just got one just like this. I'm so impressed with it so far. I love it.
This is definitely one of the best 3 row SUVs in a while. A very strong offering that provides a premium practical and upscale interior, and a boxy exterior
That color is stunning
Fire! Video came in perfect time
i cannot deny it, I really really REALLY wanrt one of these in this color, but I'm, not buying ANYTHING until I see the new Palisade/Telluride whenver hey debut.
I need the palisade to be a bigger version of this with dual exhaust and better looking rear!
2025 Palisade/Telluride supposed to have a 2.5T hybrid. Likely see it debut late summer
@@losequis7682the rear is ugly lmao but idc I’m still getting it 😂
Steering wheel should be power adjusted. Otherwise fantastic.
Like that brown that definitely luxurious
Great Video
....could you guys review the XRT with emphasis on off-roading.... Much appreciated
Love the duracel color
Hyundai absolutely killed it with Santa Fe & the price point is fantastic! This is our next family SUV!
It is BOLD!
Another very thorough review, fellas. Well done. A couple of constructive criticisms, though.
1. Instead of just measuring the rear opening, measure the narrowest cargo space, typically the wheel wells. This helps us understand what realistically could be carried as cargo - sure something 4ft wide goes in the back, but does it pass the wheel wells?
2. For the taller audience (5'10"+), like most of my family and friends, try measuring rear legroom when the front seat is all the way back. I suspect that 9 inches of knee space drops considerably.
Man, I’m really early today, enjoy your weekend guys!
You too!
3:54 DUDE I thought you were about to get ran the eff over! WoW! This car is gorgeous. Wife just test drove a white calligraphy and we want it!
The calligraphy comes with rear collision avoidance, he would’ve been fine.
Lots of luxurious features but wish there was an option for a second row bench seat.
According to the specs on Hyundai’s website, Highway Drive Assist 2 is only available on the Calligraphy. I was disappointed by that because I want a second row bench AND HDA 2…sadly not on option.
This car is superb. They just released the Calligraphy in the Philippines.
Fun fact:
The "symbol" on the steering wheel is actually 4 dots, which is Morse code for H.
Receiving the same color and trim next week.
3rd row should be optional. Save the 3rd row for the larger vehicles
It's optional in Korea. The problem is the US version always cut features or customization choices while the price is higher than it in Korea.
It's so pretty!
i love it amazing car
For 50 grand its hard to believe you get all this stuff. In terms of luxury, this is comparable to the germans. For 50k, you’re getting stuff that not even some higher end expensive vehicles offer. Its definitely the best in this class.
I still love our 2023 Santa fe Calligraphy AWD 2.5 turbo. I do like the dashboard and camera rear view mirror. We don't carry many people being in our 70s so the 3rd row doesn't interest us. I like our panoramic sunroof in ours rather than the 2 sunroofs. I believe we will keep our 2023. Had it 18 months and 4000 miles so it stays in the garage unless it is sunny 😂 The 2024 has a different look which is ok. The new one weighs about 500 lbs more and will effect performance which is important to me.
Okay this would be my perfect Santa Fe: hybrid calligraphy in green with pecan brown interior. I’d have the dealer swap the standard wheels for the XRT. I wish it came with the massage seats and fog lights though - I’d totally trade those for the finger print scanner and UV sanitizer thing. Still love the car though.
That earthy brass matte is a great color. Does the matte finish tend to show fingerprints any more than a gloss finish?
The matte colors are pretty, but if you Google about the paint, you shouldn't go through a car wash. Should only be handwashed. A consideration if you want to wash the salt off your car after a snow and don't want to be in the freezing cold outside handwashing.
Not so much for fingerprints, but it is much easier to damage or scratch
I’ve ordered a Hybrid Calligraphy. It saddens me though that it doesn’t come with the power adjustable steering wheel and auto dimming side mirrors. I would have happily paid a bit extra for that.
Hyundai certainly makes great looking vehicles. The transmission issues from your previous videos, make me pause on buying one.
I wanna get the Calligraphy trim with either that Earth tone or a Dark gray exterior, light brown interior
The 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe is a fantastic choice! It's a stylish and reliable SUV that offers a comfortable ride, spacious interior, and advanced technology features. With its sleek design and impressive performance, it's sure to turn heads on the road. Whether you're going on a road trip or just running errands, the Santa Fe has got you covered. Plus, Hyundai is known for its commitment to safety, so you can feel confident behind the wheel. Enjoy exploring in your new Hyundai Santa Fe! 🚗😊
Watch their previous Santa Fe video before you say reliable lol
@@kiwiinterstates3190it’s not common.
@@bradleyscarreviewsit is common lol
IMO it’s a great car to lease but I wouldn’t purchase it
@@kiwiinterstates319027 miles in and trans went
I just bought one
Thanks for your great reviews. Maybe you guys can be the first to include front passenger seat reviews. 😅 I always wonder why that gets left out. 🤷♀️ Does the Calligraphy front passenger seat also have power settings, lumbar setting and the cool reclining feature? Thanks!
Thanks! We actually used to include it but data showed that most people skipped that part of the review. Nevertheless, it has the same adjustments but no relax seat on the passenger side.
Nicer then some luxuty cars out there.....I'd buy this over the Land Rover any day...
26:45 after 9am EDT 3/19/24 (embargo) can you also comment / opine regarding ride quality, harshness etc; not only with other trim levels but also with the genesis gv70, gv60 and ioniq 5 ?
..... Mainly bcoz a lot of customers outside of Hyundai/ HMG like myself got rid of my Volvos and more premium brands, and came interested in HMG due to the CUSHY ride of the Genesis and supposedly excellent ride COMFORT of the ioniq5.
Yes, that discussion is coming Tuesday!
Holy fantastic, Batman! But, as I always say, most vehicles only look great in maybe just one available color in the whole lineup. And that matte gold-ish one here makes all the curves actually POP with luxury!
Unfortunately, though, every one with the other regular/metallic paints really flattens the panels, giving it a look of a cheap box.
Can you do the night review of this trim please !? I really appreciate it.
Does Calligraphy or limited have a bench seat ? I don’t like the captain chairs it waste spaces for 5 people 😂
Everything besides Calligraphy gets bench seating
This is the most powerful car ine the world
Hey brothers, I don't have time to watch this right now, but man I love that color.I really wanted a Calligraphy Hybrid, but they're too spendy for me. My 24 Limited SF Hybrid is only affordable because I'm getting it for dealer invoice. Even then, it's pretty spendy. I'm a huge Hyundai fan and take a lot of heat for it from friends. I've had nothing but great luck with mine. My only gripe with Hyundai overall is that they've raised their price 50% over just 5 years. Toyota meanwhile, has only raised theirs by 25% in the same span of time. At some point the value proposition with Hyundai is no longer a reason to shop for their vehicles. Yes, the long warranty and the beautiful styling, along with the always advanced tech is very attractive to me. But the pricing might be at a point where people just start saying no. Looking forward watching your review. Have a great weekend all. BTW, I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Many don't like the look of the SF. I love it
My new 2013 Limited Santa Fe was in the neighborhood of $33K after the normal discounts of $5-6K Hyundai's always had.
@@bradfordsparks329 nope not even close Brad. I bought a fully loaded 2013 SF Sport 2.0T for 28K out the door. It had every option available and that's what I paid with tax and doc fees . The new hybrid limited will be closer to 45K out the door. See caredge to show Hyundai prices going up 50% over 5 years.
@@user-fv5yo5fi5c Sorry to burst your bubble, but as you will remember, the Santa Fe Sport was the small SUV. I owned the real Santa Fe LWB that had a longer wheelbase and cost significantly more. The top of the line 2024 hybrid will be significantly more than $45K.
@@user-fv5yo5fi5c FYI, the Santa Fe Sport was the smallish SUV. Whereas, the Santa Fe LWB was the larger one which I had. It was much more expensive than the Sport. The 2024 Santa Fe Hybrid will certainly be near $50K depending upon which trim level you purchase.
that Transmission issue always lingers in my mind, i was hopeful kia/hyundai have improved, but they try to hide their weakness with all these luxury and tech
What transmission issue?
If you are worried about this you should google Toyota class action law suits for their faulty transmission, Google it.
8:46 , 21:34 it's missing the front passenger seat button (for rear passenger / driver to move the passenger sleeping in a front seat) that's def present in other markets. Wtf HMG ! 😡 even the 2025 ioniq5 has this feature ... Unless the infotainment system includes those as virtual controls to move it like it does for moving the rear row seats
It has in screen controls for the REAR seats but not the passenger seat
Wow, that is one tall load height in the rear 😳
I want to trade my Telluride for this. I need to go test drive one.
Does this vehicle have head up display?
Just went to Cincinnati auto show. This vehicle was there in this color. The color is cool. The Hyundai rep said you cannot run this mat finish through a car wash or you'll ruin it. So, you have to hand wash your car. The bulbous rear is not bad in dark colors. I didn't like the H head lights. I have the 2023 Santa Fe Calligraphy and I wouldn't trade it in for this model.
I want all of those features but, for that price I can get a high trim Telluride
Aston, you need an Auburn Polo!
Would like to see dual tip exhaust and V6 Turbo We'd like to hear More about this suspension
I would to see (and hear) an acceleration video of the Calligraphy Hybrid from the driver's point of view
We are looking to get a lot of Hybrid content soon!
Does this calligraphy have puddle light illumination at night?
Looking forward to seeing Calligraphy Hybrid Msrp ……for fall. If the out door price is under $50k, I’m in….(plus more comfortable with that than the full gas transmission problem you guys ran into!!! ) Keep doing what u do Guys!! 👍
Thanks!
I thought you were gong to compare the ride quality against the sel trim with 18" wheels.
We will be on Tuesday when we are allowed to discuss
I really hate the digital displays in place of functional buttons. Trying to drive and make adjustments at the same time is very annoying. I wish they would keep the physical buttons.
That key fob is ridiculously big
This one transmission works? Wow😂😂😂
I can't believe after what happened to theirs that they would still tell people to buy this crap.....
google the current class actions law suits against Toyota and Honda. LOLLLL
@@andresmattos7541 I have, nothing about the vehicles blowing up or catching on fire. But hey if you want to trust a company that has not made a decent engine since 2011 go right ahead. Car confections channel bought a new 24 and the dct broke after 30 miles.. such wonderful quality
Here in this Caligraphy is not have massage system i hope when i buy this car they have
Box style SUV are in, I think we can sleep 2 adults and kids when all seats are down
Can you confirm, the 2nd row passengers do not have their own climate control but the 3rd row passengers do? I did not see any controls in the video for the second row.
That is correct
Keep saying Land Rover, when it really looks like a modern version Ford Flex!
Brooke Man's RR 😂
đẹp quá
Why did the Sante Fe move by itself at 3:54 ?
What is that interior color? Is it Beige or Gray?
Beige
nhìn cái phần đầu gần giống Ranger Rover
i love my calligraphy.
i g😂t white & black
3:56 it almost took off like an SRT too 😂. What if Hyundai actually did make a santa fe SRT 🤨
Toyota transmission problems have been cropping up in 2017 to 2020 models of certain vehicles. There have been a number of complaints about the power train made to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), but no safety recalls to date. The Toyota transmission complaints over the past several years have been so numerous that attorneys are now assembling complainants to join a class action lawsuit against Toyota.
The most common Toyota transmission problems logged with the NHTSA involve a lack of power or acceleration in the vehicles, or the automatic transmission remaining “stuck” in a particular gear.
Complaints also include:
Rough, delayed or sudden shifting
Failure to accelerate from a stop
Transmission shudder
Sudden loss of power
Premature transmission failure
I can't believe this is only 40 thousand dollars
It’s very nice, I like the white interior, I don’t know about the color tho 😂!!
I tried to like the Ford Flex. It never grew on me. I am trying to like this. I doubt I will. I guess I will call it the Santa Flex. Great for some, but not my cup of tea.
Then Infinity has an Autograph trim
Mazda has the Signature trim
What trim is next, Handwriting?
lol
White or light gray seats is not for a smaller kids they’re going to mess up 😂
I’ve got second thoughts on buying this because of your transmission failure on your car.
lemon
Fixed under warranty in 2 weeks. 😂
Almost always going to happen if you buy a car the day it was released lol for any manufacturer. Give Hyundai a break lol
I haven’t seen a car manufacturer that don’t have fail transmission
Google Toyota transmission class action law suits.
I would go for a hybrid just to avoid the DCT
Kinda wished it had higher ground clearance
Landrover is India company now
Did i miss it? No climate control on the second row?
Theres a control knob in the third row for some reason
I like the exterior and interior of this compared to Highlander and Pilot but the reliability and resale value is below avg compared to its Toyota and Honda counterparts parts.. if I had super extra money to spare I’d go for this..otherwise.. it’s Toyota Honda Mazda with the smarter choice
What's the price?
50k
There is absolutely no way I would pay $50K+ for the Santa Fe Caligraphy. It seems to be a nice well appointed vehicle, but it is not even hybrid. I know that is coming soon. Many buyers of this model are going to be deep into debt and underwater financially in a couple of years.
The rear-end gives Pontiac Aztec vibes.
I don’t want it if I can’t have it in this color.
Hyundai group is on a roll! Nice truck! Sexy!
I heard matte paint is not good on a vehicle? Also hard pass on captains chairs. I’d go with the XRT. A relative of mine has light colored leather in there Mazda and regrets it. Can’t keep it clean. 😂
Matte paint definitely requires a more delicate touch and no car washes
@@CarConfections thanks! I live in Colorado where it snows and we have to wash cars a fair amount! I’d need to get a different paint color.
DCT= deal breaker
I will definitely get one after they redesign the rear tail lights to move them up higher
I own a 2022 calligraphy I would not upgrade to this new model. Not only do I hate the looks of it but the extra row of seats is a waste. They should have offered a five passenger version without a back seat so you got more cargo room. Also it is the same drivetrain as my 2022 but weighs over 500 lb more so it's going to be slower. Hyundai threw the kitchen sink at it but I am going to keep my 2022 a very long time
psychologically, we call that hating on the new thing because you bought in early. Don't hate on it lol I test drove tons of luxury vehicles cause Im literally in the market for it. and by far this ones interior was superior to BMW's, range rovers, toyotas, hondas, audis, even mercedes on some. How it felt driving. The same. lol Then again...im not a car head that worried about how much noise it makes from its ass. general consumer will love this vehicle. and it does look nice. you can put the 3rd row down lol
The best reliable model Hyundai you'll ever get. Hyundai knows how to make good quality car.
I guess you have not read about the engine fires 🔥 and transmission issues
@@AJSparacio413 I guess you have not heard about the class action law suits against Toyota and Honda and their respective massive recalls?
@@AJSparacio413 why are you trolling? Your life sucks since you're jealous of Hyundai?
Who said that hyundai makes best cars? No every car brands is perfect . Ask any owners
I just wish they would hurry up and make the calligraphy model that doesn't have the black out package..... meaning more chrome trim and regular non black calligraphy wheels....... Come on Hyundai!!! the rest of the world got the non black out models first....
SINCE. ITS A. TOP OF THE LINE. MUST. HAVE. BIGGER TIRES, HIGHER GROUND. CLEARANCE, MUST HAVE A. V6 400HP TWIN- TURBO. - WIDTH. MUST BE. 82 INCHES .
I don’t know why Hyundai and Kia cheap out on reverse and license plate lights
You spelled Ford Flex Formula wrong.
They made the whole car boxy, but the key fob looks like an egg…
Resale is not great and the 2024 Santa Fe these reviewers bought brand new had the transmission go out in the first 30 miles. Took 2 weeks to replace. Hmmmm....not liking that.
What's the latest with your transmission ?
Man they made all of the wrong decisions with the lighting for the US market. Incandescent reverse, the turn signals are the brake lights (can't wait for someone to make this illegal) even though the lines down below which are the turn signals in Korea are STILL USED as the turn signals when the hatch is open. It's literally just a programming decision. WHY? Why.
In place of spare tire it comes with a spare transmission.
😅😂🤣🤣
100% agree@@omendarklight1526
agree 100%
Google class action law suits against Toyota for transmission failure in many of their cars.
This is a Ford Flex done right.
