Reviewed: 2008 Hyundai Santa Fe

4dr SUV 242-horsepower 3.3L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD

Why the 2008 Hyundai Santa Fe?

Fuel economy

I am currently getting an average of 22-23 MPG, mostly city driving in this vehicle. I previously had a Dodge Ram 1500 Quadcab 4x4 which got an average of 11-12 MPG in the same conditions. Gas prices have driven me to change vehicles.

Powertrain performance

The 3.3L V6 is strong and responsive. I never feel that the vehicle is bogged down and always seem to have extra power when I need to push the pedal. Gear shifting in the 5-speed AT (FWD) is smooth and precise with no drops or slips.

Discounts & incentives

The manufacturer discount was great, and there was even a dealer discount. Most of all, I got a great deal for trade-in on my old vehicle. The timing was perfect... just before the big gas price increases.
