  • In this video I do a side by side trim comparison of the 2023 Hyundai Santa Fe Limited and 2023 Santa Fe Calligraphy. The Limited is finished in Stormy Sea and the Calligraphy is finished in Portoifino Gray. These are two luxury oriented trims of the Santa Fe in the midsize SUV segment. The Santa Fe is just a tad larger than the Tucson. Both are equipped with the 2.5T and 8 speed DCT however the Limited is also available with the Hybrid powertrain where the Calligraphy is not. Let me know which one you prefer in the comments below!

    I bought the 2022 premium with convenience package when it came out. The calligraphy was 50k vs 38k and I just couldn’t justify the extra for a turbo, wheels, and upgraded leather. I’d love to hear your take on if I’d be worth a trade in for a calligraphy with higher miles for the experience

    • @CarsMadeSimple
      @CarsMadeSimple  10 месяцев назад +1

      Looking at the 2022 packaging, I believe there is a reasonable difference between the SEL Premium and the Calligraphy. Whether it is worth trading? That is another question. I have seen some lower mile, CPO 2021/22 Calligraphy's for just over $40k.

    I vote for the Calligraphy!. Over the course of many years of buying and leasing cars, I generally went with the top of the line for any of them. Equipment, appliance , and car makers, put all their technologies into the top of the line product, and then strip down from there. I will give this vehicle a serious look when my 22 MDX lease comes due August 2024. Maybe Hyundai provides a Hybrid Calligraphy in 2024?. IMHO, gas/electric Hybrid is the way to go.

    • @CarsMadeSimple

      So the highway MPG is only going to be about 2 MPG better but the city MPG is going to be roughly 12 MPG better. That is where the hybrid shines.

  • @sansin6250

    A salesman at the dealership told me that the Calligraphy has more sound insulation, and better insulated driver and front passenger side window glasses, and therefore offers quieter ride. This was after I told him that a quiet ride was one of my main considerations. I have not had a chance to drive them back to back so could not compare the quietness. Is there any truth to the claim that the calligraphy has a quieter ride overall? I would think that if anything, the wider tires and bigger wheels on the Calligraphy would contribute to more road noise.

    • @CarsMadeSimple
      @CarsMadeSimple  Год назад +1

      I have not heard about more insulation on the Calligraphy in specific but the acoustic laminated front side glass comes on the SEL Premium, Limited, and Calligraphy. Tires can make a big difference in overall sound inside of the cabin so even though the tires have less sidewall (which generally doesn't help) the tread compound could be less noisy. I would recommend driving them back to back if possible but both are going to be very quiet on the inside.

    • @sansin6250
      @sansin6250 Год назад

      @@CarsMadeSimple So you feel they are about the same in quietness? I have not found any local dealer who has both Limited and Calligraphy available for test drive, so cannot compare.

    • @chuckhpnwx
      @chuckhpnwx 11 месяцев назад +1

      Know this is late, but both the Limited and Calligraphy have the acoustic laminated side glass in the front doors, as does the SEL with the premium package. I am not aware of any differences in any other insulation. As far as the wheels and tires go, the Calligraphy will have a slightly more firm ride, but not significant. Not sure abiutnoise there.

      Probably referring to the suede headliner which helps with the sound insulation.

      Our limited has the two tone interior. We found several with that option. We like the nineteen inch wheels with more sidewall flex for a more comfortable ride and a longer lasting tire. Other options on the calligraphy were not of enough value for us.

    • @6milesup
      @6milesup 8 месяцев назад

      @@Katie-vy5rd There is only so much space in a wheel well for a tire. The 20" rim has a tire with a shorter sidewall, thus making the tire slightly more "stiff." The 19" wheel has a slightly taller sidewall thus allowing more "flex" and thus a little better ride. The tires are P235-55-19 and P255-45-20. The first set of numbers is the width of the tire in millimeters. The second number is the ratio of the sidewall height to the tire width. The larger the number, the taller the sidewall. The last two digits are the size of the rim, in this case they are 19" and 20" respectively.

      SEL and higher has dynamic voice recognition. It varies by model which have access to control the windows or other aspects of the vehicle. The Calligraphy adds auto/up down rear windows which (if possible) can be controlled by voice like the front.
