*NOTE* The vehicles seen in this video are 2024MY however Hyundai did not make any changes for 2025. Pricing increased $250 from the vehicles seen in this video.

drove a hybrid and found it refreshingly nice. Was driving in the city, was as quiet as a tesla. The EV mode is nice. The one concerning thing i found was the lack of a real bumper on the rear, the trunk door is the bumper. A rear hit will require the entire liftgate to be replaced.

That’s the case with any crossover unless the hit is like 2mph

That's for the insurance company and smash repairer to worry about if and when that ever happens.

Great side by side review! I agree with you and went with a Hybrid Calligraphy FWD myself. There is nothing comparable at $50k.

I wanted an AWD limited or FWD Hybrid but ended up getting a Calligraphy AWD gas for less than invoice on a limited gas.

Bought the limited about 3 weeks ago. Love it but was not aware there was a hybrid version unfortunately. Still love the vehicle and I have had no issues at all.

Sales didn't get you to buy it? Same here . For some reason they avoid seeking u the hybrid version.😅

We bought a Tucson Hybrid and found the hybrid performance was night and day over the ICE version. No DCT or CVT transmission for us either. Many problems with other brands as well with DCT trans.

@bfish9700 3 ай бұрын

I can't unsee Ford flex with these. That said, still want one. Hybrid for an extra $500 is a no brainer if that's what it truly costs at dealer

If it was towed back 3 weeks ago I assumed the problem was resolved. Why don't you tell us what it was .

One of these limited hybrid trims sell for 48.5K in my area. A SEL for 43K. LOL don't bother. For that kind of money get a smaller luxury.

We've had our Hybrid Calligraphy for a few weeks now. Certainly not a perfect car as we find some minor usability worts living with it, but not bad.

@@ptg01 no complaints. I’m not expecting sports car performance though. It has plenty to pickup coming out of intersections and the usual type of city driving we experience. So far we’ve left it in eco. Haven’t felt the need to try sports mode.

Why is the video titled as a 2025 Santa Fe review when the window sticker clearly states that they are both 2024s?

@CarsMadeSimple 7 күн бұрын

2025's are identical to 2024 models. I will add a note in the comments. It just doesn't make sense to film the entire video again.

I was going 74mph in hybrid. On 5 mile trip - 62 mpg, average 35mpg fully loaded with 5 people and full trunk. Btw, you can switch to 3 levels of Regen with paddles.

Even with regen mode on the highest setting, how far off is it from say a Tesla Model 3 with one pedal driving? Just wondering how much of a difference I should expect (and how much brake pedal use I should be expecting!).

Great question. Let me get back to you tomorrow on how it compares to an EV.

@bonbon27 Ай бұрын

You should’ve shown a limited trim or calligraphy. SEL trim is too stripped down. Missing a lot of features that upper trims have.

I have comparisons on the channel of those vehicles. This was the best I could do at the time that were equal.
