The Santa Fe has been a good SUV for Hyundai, a dependable soldier that has marched forth on the company’s drive to achieve a quality reputation. For an entry-level SUV, it offers a generous list of equipment at a fair price. Consider that it comes with a ten-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty, side-impact airbags and a capable 200-horsepower, 3.5-liter V6 engine. Recently, however, it seems as though the 2005 Santa Fe has been loitering on rebate lists – perhaps they built too many of them, or it may well have lost some charm with buyers. Versus the competition, however, it remains a solid opponent, with more standard features than most and a sticker price that’s only slightly higher.
