The Engine Under the Hood: Power That Works for You

The Santa Fe is powered by a 2.5L turbocharged inline-4 engine producing 277 horsepower and 311 lb-ft of torque, paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. This combination delivers smooth, responsive performance whether you're heading down Manchester Road or merging onto I-270 with cargo and passengers. For drivers who occasionally tow, the Santa Fe can handle up to 3,500 pounds — perfect for small trailers, boats, or camping gear.

How the Santa Fe Handles Missouri Roads

On local streets, the Santa Fe feels agile and composed, absorbing bumps and rough patches effortlessly. On highways like I-270, it remains stable and confident, even when fully loaded. Available all-wheel drive ensures year-round traction across Missouri's wet, icy, and snowy roads — from winter commutes on Highway 141 to summer trips across St. Louis.

Steering is precise and brakes are responsive, giving confidence in any traffic situation. The Santa Fe's size makes it easier to park in suburban lots and city streets compared with larger three-row SUVs. Step inside and the Santa Fe feels welcoming and refined. Soft-touch materials, available leather seating, a panoramic sunroof, and thoughtful cabin layout create a premium environment for passengers. Second-row seats provide ample legroom and easy access to USB charging, while the cargo area behind the rear seats is perfect for groceries, sports gear, or weekend luggage. Fold the rear seats flat, and you get a generous load floor for larger items. Technology is a standout — the Santa Fe features a large touchscreen infotainment system, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, available head-up display, premium audio system, and digital driver display options. It turns the daily commute into a connected, enjoyable experience.
