Compared to Many of the same type autos You get alot for the Money.Many competitors have the options but everything seems ala cart |
| 2010 | 4dr Wagon 256-horsepower 3.6L H6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |

| 2011 | 4dr Wagon 170-horsepower 2.5L H4 6-speed shiftable CVT AWD |
Very expensive. |
| 2009 | 4dr Wagon 170-horsepower 2.5L H4 5-speed manual AWD |
During Cash for Clunkers Subarus had limited incentives compared to other vehicles normally selling at a higher price point and with more content. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 245-horsepower 3.0L H6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
$33,000 starting price. For what amounts to a nice station wagon. |
| 2007 | 4dr Wagon 245-horsepower 3.0L H6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Very high resale values and popularity make the car very popular for resales. Unfortunately the vehicle has a higher sticker price. This is easily offset in the long run on reliability. |
| 2005 | 4dr Wagon turbocharged 250hp 2.5L H4 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Damn, it was expensive (one year old and cost $24K, original price something like $32.5K) but you get what you pay for I think. |
| 2003 | 4dr Wagon 212-horsepower 3.0L H6 4-speed automatic AWD |
High price for its class |

| Price of the Hyundai Santa Fe: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 4dr SUV 276-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
One of the lowest priced vehicles in its category (similarly equipped). Excellent interest rates. Dealers willing to negotiate. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 242-horsepower 3.3L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
With high residual value, monthly lease payments for full-loaded model were comparable to base model Honda Pilot and Nissan Murano. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 185-horsepower 2.7L V6 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Good price for a mid-size SUV. Much better priced than a Honda CRV or Toyota RAV or Highlander |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 242-horsepower 3.3L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Best value in class, about $3-5K less than Toyota or Honda. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV turbocharged 148hp 2.2L I4 Diesel 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
I was able to get a good deal using a salary sacrifice process on a leased vehicle. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 242-horsepower 3.3L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
balloon financing, can get a loaded car for far less than other SUVs with the same features, low financing rates |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 185-horsepower 2.7L V6 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Most available standard features which are extras on other small SUVs and jack up their price. Got it for less than the advertised price. Had about 15 vehicles to choose from at below the advertised price unlike most dealers that have only 1 or 2. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV turbocharged 148hp 2.2L I4 Diesel 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Lots of "Power, without the Price" |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 242-horsepower 3.3L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Good price for what you get inside out of the vehicle. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 242-horsepower 3.3L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Great rebate and the sales person was willing to meet our price range. I was able to get a really good price for a car with all the bells and whistles. The long warranty helped a lot also. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 242-horsepower 3.3L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Low price for such a vehicle. So many features standard, special safety features. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 242-horsepower 3.3L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Great value. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 185-horsepower 2.7L V6 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Well priced below $20,000. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 242-horsepower 3.3L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
More features for less than competition. Zero financing. |
| 2004 | 4dr SUV 173-horsepower 2.7L V6 4-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
very fair price for entry into SUV segment |

| 2008 | 4dr SUV 242-horsepower 3.3L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
unsure about their captive lender financing, did not want to apply and be turned down for a loan |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 242-horsepower 3.3L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Price was fair when I bought it.. Has come down since the drop in auto sales. Just hope it can go 150K or more on it. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 242-horsepower 3.3L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Lease rates were completely ridiculous compared to the Mazda. Wanted you to buy, but did not have good interest rates available. |
