IMO, mas pogi Santa Fe kesa bagong RAV4. Maganda rin ang review ng ride na to nabasa ko sa isang Australian mag

I checked out the new Santa Fe sa Mall of Asia kanina and overall, it looks like a much improved model over the outgoing one! Maganda and imposing yung dating and parang medyo loaded ren sa features inside.

Some things I disliked though was the quality of the plastics sa interior (just like other current Hyundai offerings) and the third row seats. I felt na parang na compromise yung leg room ng 2nd row cuz of it n baka pwede na ren tanggalin.

I didn't get the price but if similar to a Fortuner, I think it would be a good match!

Nice ride wanderer. Congratulations! I am getting a V6 variant this July. I was thinking of getting the silver color like sutan's but after you posted your black Santa Fe now I am more inclined to get the black one. Like what darfman said, black is more elegant.

the 3rd row seats are a bit cramped... pwede kids lang... or 5'4 below... pero 2nd row... its roomy... and comfortable compared to my 2.5 gen pajero. hehehe small guy lang kasi ako eh.

the third row seats are there ata to lower the price or the tax pala.

this Sta. Fe is masquerading as an all purpose utility vehicle but I believe it's really a mid-luxury SUV, comparable to the likes of Nissan Murano or Ford Explorer or even the new RAV4.
