Awesome! I bet you will enjoy it.

Congrats! The Limited is a great choice.

Have you liked it?

@@Pianoman999 my hubby and I love it! So happy with the choice. We were looking for something a bit larger than our Tucson with a bit more cargo space, without getting into a full size SUV, and this is perfect. Plus it’s way snappier than the Tucson and so much fun to drive!

@@teresaacosta8757 Great feedback! Thank you!

Howmuch please?

That's correct!

The spare tire is not in the “trunk”; it is underneath the vehicle so, you still have all the storage area under the cargo floor.

Thank you!

Awesome to hear Tom! Glad it was helpful.

Glad it helped! The H-Tex leatherette is nicer/softer than the old Hyundai leather seats (such s your Genesis Coupe or my old Elantra GT) but not as soft as the Leather or Nappa Leather found in the upper trims.

Great to hear!

Congrats!

It's still a rumor if the older systems will ever support it but I hope so!

You're welcome Frank!

Carplay? CarPlay is only wired in this vehicle.

The smaller 8" screen has supported it for years but the larger systems with built in navigation do not. The first vehicle that will have both is the 2024+ Kona.

I haven't driven or ridden in the Limited on the interstate but I have been in an SEL and it was very quiet. The SEL Premium, Limited, and Calligraphy should be a tad more quiet given they have acoustic laminated front side glass.

Rides like a COUCH. You’ll love it.

The hybrid Santa Fe is already available. I’ve seen it on dealer lots for the past year or so.

The main additions on the Calligraphy are the dark chrome grille, Nappa leather (vs standard leather), heads up display, Eco-Suede (vs Melange ) headliner, interior ambient lighting, and painted body trim vs black. There are a few other smaller interior bits like perforated steering wheel and quilted door panels but are relatively small differences. Both will have the optional port installed or dealer installed tow hitch available for up to 3,500 lbs towing capacity. It is a tough one because on one hand it's "only" $2,000 more but I haven't sat in a Santa Fe Calligraphy yet so hard to compare fairly. If the leather was higher quality and you wanted some of the additional features then I would say it would be worth it. It is worth noting that the Limited is available with a Gray leather option that is not available on the Calligraphy.

Thx. For the additional insight 👍🏼

Have a 22 Calligraphy and find those extra options are worth it, especially the seats and heads up display. Plus I don’t like the wheels on the Limited.

@@gregorysullivan7913 ok. Thx

My wife says, the suede will not be nearly as easy to clean! It would be a dust collector! You can't stop dust! (Just a heads-up!)

¡Gran elección!

Both exterior colors are very nice! We actually have a Limited Hybrid inbound in white. 👀

Yes, both the N/A 2.5 Tucson and Santa Fe have a regular 8 speed auto. The 2.5T engines have an 8 speed DCT.

@@CarsMadeSimple I heard the 2024 is getting a redesign, wondering about substantial savings on a 2023 Limited or Calligraphy? i was looking and limited is 44 and Calligraphy is 46

What are you confused about? Any specific questions?

@Cars Made Simple engine comparison, like which one is more powerful and better driving experience. Feature wise cost comparison

@@vishalchandla It's hard to compare the Explorer and the Santa Fe because they are in slightly different classes. The Explorer is more in line with the Palisade due to being a three row vehicle. The Explorer's base engine is a little more powerful than the Santa Fe 2.5T although not by much. As for driving, this would be similar because the Explorer is RWD based and the Santa Fe is FWD based although both come in AWD as well. Given these facts, you will only be able to get an fairly basic XLT Explorer for the same price as the Calligraphy Santa Fe.

You are comparing “apples” to “oranges”. The Explorer is much larger, has 3 rows of seats, is rear wheel drive. If you are planning on towing a trailer, the Explorer is the way to go, if not then it really depends on the size of your family and your budget.

The AWD Limited and Calligraphy do not have a spare tire, just a mobility kit.

@@CarsMadeSimple This answers my question! Good to have solid information. You surely Know Your Stuff!! Thanks.

No, the Limited and Calligraphy AWD have mobility kits. The FWD versions and the 2.5 NA engines all have a spare.

Tôi thích giao diện người dùng nhưng tôi thấy ý của bạn. Cảm ơn đã bình luận!

This is the OEM hitch installed from the factory/port.

It appears they are switching over to mostly USB-C in their next generation vehicles.

It's a great question. I would assume many people would use the center console or the door storage.

Oh. In my 2020 Santa Fe they had a holder up top by the moonroof control

@@TheStr0keMaster They have been slowly getting rid of those in recent years. The Kona still has one along with maybe one or two others. Outside of this they are not there anymore.

@@CarsMadeSimple I wish they were still the norm. I tried a CR-V that had it, but we didn't like the build quality over Hyundai. We chose the Santa Fe and are super happy.

The Santa Fe Limited AWD starts at $43,045 including destination but not including any accessories or extra cost paint color. If I recall, this one was just under $44,000 with the tow hitch and everything.

@@CarsMadeSimple the one im getting is $42k plus $3k markup. but after tax and fees its showing up as $55k doesn't sound right lol but i may be wrong

@@jacedragon should be 45k not 55

I got my dealer to drop $500

@@azee1v1 I found out that they added the $6k balance on my previous loan to it but still the math doesn’t add up cause I got the $2k ish tax credit bringing my sales tax to just $1900 plus the mrsp of $43000 should only be $45k plus 6k making it $51k but owell went to 2 places and both totals came up to be around the same. I did talk th $55k down to $53k lol

Thanks for the comment Flint! The extra features are nice on the Calligraphy. Luckily you don't touch the headliner too often but its all personal preference.

Love the suede headliner.

Yeah my wife didn't like the Suede or the quilted leather on the Calligraphy. I only liked the HUD. We got the Limited FWD and are super happy with it!

Indeed.

I drive a Turbo Hyundai and I have plenty of confidence in them. The 1.6T has been one of Hyundai's more reliable engines. The 2.5T is too early to tell if the engine will be problematic or not but I believe it will be fine.

I had a 2013 Santa Fe Sport Turbo from new and had no trouble. Just bought a new Santa Fe Premium and love it.
