Hyundai-Sime Darby Motors (HSDM) announced that the Hyundai Santa Fe is open for booking across Malaysia. Available in both 2.2L Diesel and 1.6L Hybrid variants, the fourth-generation Santa Fe continues to set the benchmark for family SUVs.
The Santa Fe’s modern design makes a striking impression. Its wide grille, featuring Hyundai’s signature geometric pattern, seamlessly integrates with T-shaped LED Daytime Running Lights, creating a commanding presence on the road. The SUV’s sporty profile is further accentuated by a dynamic line that flows from front to rear, while the rear features a sleek illuminated bar connecting the taillights, emphasising the mid-size vehicle’s width and stability.
The locally assembled (CKD) Santa Fe offers two compelling powertrain options to suit different driving preferences. The 2.2L Diesel model, powered by a robust CRDi engine, delivers an impressive 202PS and 440Nm of torque, providing a smooth drive when embarking on long-distance journeys. Meanwhile, eco-conscious drivers can opt for the 1.6L Hybrid, which combines a Gamma-II T-GDi Hybrid engine with an electric motor, producing a combined 230PS and 350Nm of torque. This hybrid powertrain offers enhanced fuel efficiency and reduced emissions without compromising on performance.
