    my wife and i bought one of these two weeks ago in red, with the 2.5L turbo. We have been enjoying this so much and with kids this vehicle provides all the space we need. its a step up from her 2020 Toyota CH-R. After having a dashboard screen like this one you can never go back to anything else that is not digital. We hadn't used the 3rd row yet but i can say with the 3rd row up there is no trunk space. so we ride around with the 3rd row down for groceries. Hyundai has taken this design to the the next level for the working class at 38 MSRP. im very pleased and its affordable. now maybe if i trade in my 21 toyota corolla hmmm lol..

      As a Toyota loyalist, I really like this car. I want it to be as reliable as a RAV4 or Highlander. I just don’t think the DCT and 2.5T will hold up over time. Hopefully they will though. That would complete this car and give Toyota a run for their money. Toyota has never been a leader in design or technology so they need to be reliable for their value proposition. If they lose their reliability without major improvements in design and tech then they will lose business. I’m concerned about the new generation Tacoma and Land Cruiser because they have turbo 4s.

    The 6 speed tranmission is why you would want the hybrid. Want nothing to do with a DCT from a mechanic's point of view.

    Love the style, not only different and bold, but I think the execution is spot on. Like a French pixelated robot. Tron neuve. Cool and funky. Two words, lets stick to the straightpipped here, people seldom use to describe Korean cars. Another French influence to note is how, erm, 'exciting' of an experience post warranty ownership may present.

    I’m a current 2020 Sante Fe owner and absolutely LOVE it. I’ve seen the 2024 in person: negatives, it’s only available in a seven seater, the back end is ugly, it has a cockpit style interior (with purse compartment). The required seven seats is enough for me to look at different companies on my next purchase. It is true, I don’t think they built this one with their current customers in mind…😢😢😢

      @@redwhite_040 All transmissions have pros and cons. CVT are inexpensive and simple so long as you're doing straight and level driving typical with Honda Civics and Toyota Corollas.
      DCT are typically the choice for more high performance/spirited driving, but they do have a tendency to lurch at low speeds.
