2026 Santa Fe Calligraphy
The 2026 Santa Fe Calligraphy is engineered with driver and passenger comfort in mind. Luxurious interior appointments and a large interactive screen top the list of creature comforts.
Highpoints also include an intuitive head up display, and a wide array of sensors-based information and data points that make driving the vehicle a much more enticing experience that many SUVs of similar size.
Unfortunately, mechanical glitches and an underpowered for-cylinder engine detract from the journey.
The guts of the vehicle don’t support its weight. Lackluster and often hesitant acceleration degrade the driving experience, while intermittently non-functional power mirrors and seats act like gremlins to take away from the charm of the build. And Hyundai’s unwavering commitment to refusing to install putter telescoping steering wheels is unfathomable in a vehicle of this quality.
The overall statement the Santa Fe makes is, “Pretty darn good. For the price.” The second part of that assertion is what Hyundai will have to change to become an industry standard.
