Excellent Vehicle
I previously had a 2016 Hyundai Sonata Limited. It was a fantastic car. I drive a lot for work and have a commute of at least 30 miles in each direction. It was comfortable, roomy, smooth, quiet, and had enough pep. to get up to highway speed without any problems. I also was pleased with the fuel economy it would get (mid 30's mpg's with about 70% highway driving, 2.4, non-turbo 4 cylinder). The lease came to an end and I gave strong consideration to keeping it. Why did I turn it in and get a Santa Fe XL instead? Practicality/Utility... The Sonata can't tow anything--not even a small utility trailer to move bulky items. Also, since it is only offered as a sedan, I could not fit any large/bulky items inside it. The Santa Fe XL is able to do everything my Sonata could do and it offers the utility I need since it is a 'wagon' and can tow a trailer up to 5000 lbs. The only negative is that I get lower fuel mileage. I really like my Santa Fe but must admit that if Hyundai made either a Sonata wagon or liftback that could also pull a small trailer (about 2000 lbs or less--enough to carry a lawn tractor, a few bikes, or stop at the home improvement store to get mulch/pick-up materials for household projects) I would have another Sonata right now. Our family has had 6 Hyundais and 1 Kia (anyone with automotive knowledge knows that Hyundai/Kia are the same company--just like Buick and Chevrolet are both part of GM) and has been very happy with all of them. The Santa Fe XL is a great vehicle and does everything we need it to do--and does it well. Highly recommend it.
