What is good

  • Among compact SUVs it has a roomy interior and a varied trim lineup, from value trims such as H-Pick to N Line.

What could be better

  • Upper hybrid trims exceed ₩40,000,000, overlapping in price with lower Santa Fe trims. It is based on the 4th generation launched in 2020, so the new-car appeal has faded.
