New Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid - For every kind of family

Big, bold and beautiful, the new Santa Fe Plug-in Hybrid is not for the faint of heart. Built to command the road, it also commands a lot of attention. Its wide stance and completely reimagined design will have heads turning.

What is a plug-in hybrid?

The new Santa Fe Plug-in Hybrid delivers combined 265 PS of combined power output and an all-electric mode at the push of a button. Once the all-electric range is depleted, the full-parallel hybrid drive system takes over, which means it can run on its petrol engine or electric motor or both. Perfect car for commuting, school run and family trips.

Electric range, C02 emissions

A plug-in Hybrid gives you choice and freedom. You’ll have the ability to complete your shorter journeys, like the daily school run, using its electric range, with zero emissions. And when you’re making a longer trip, or when the all electric mode is depleted, the hybrid system will automatically take over, giving you peace of mind.​

Go father on a litre of petrol

In hybrid mode, the battery-powered electric motor works in tandem with its petrol engine to deliver improved fuel economy and lower emissions.

LED Daytime Running Lights

Unique T-shaped LED Daytime Running Lights positioned on top of the headlights catch the eye in an instant.​

Cascading Grille

The new Santa FE Plug-In Hybrid has a striking front angle view thanks to its signature Cascading Grille. The grille’s distinctive mesh pattern flows elegantly into the main headlamps, embracing them for a more integrated look.

Character Line

The muscular profile is softened by an elegant character line, which flows effortlessly from the front LED Daytime Running Lights to the rear combination lights.

Panoramic Sunroof

The twin-panel panoramic sunroof fills the cabin with natural light, adding to the Santa Fe’s sense of roominess. The front panel of the sunroof opens at the touch of a button and automatically deploys a wind deflector for a gentle, comfortable breeze while driving.

Spacious, elegant and seriously smart

Step into the Santa Fe Plug-In Hybrid's cabin to discover a new level of comfort. Its tech has also taken a bold leap forward and there’s more space than in previous models. You’ll find soft touch materials and premium leather accents throughout. And you can take comfort even further by opting for Hyundai’s first Luxury pack.

Making every day comfortable

Santa Fe’s interior isn’t just bigger – it’s filled with more thoughtfulness for the entire family. The high center console’s soft leather surface offers the comfort of an armchair, while the neatly-aligned buttons allow hassle-free control of various functions.

Dynamic, fully digital cluster

The premium interior updates are rounded off by a new, highly customisable 12.3” fully digital display cluster.

10.5" Touch-Screen

One of the most notable features of the upgraded interior is the ‘floating’ centre console which flows elegantly into the leather-covered crash pad. Wrapped in soft touch material and boasting a plethora of high tech features, the new console accentuates the premium feel in the cabin.​

Button type shift-by-wire

Effortlessly switch between drive, neutral, park and reverse at the touch of a button, which is handily located on the floating centre console.

Clever comfort and convenience

The new Santa Fe Hybrid offers you the very best in comfort and convenience with a highly versatile seating system and a host of handy features like the Smart Power Tailgate and tailgate open guide. Increased boot space and clever storage compartments will always come in handy, while increased second and third-row legroom will certainly be appreciated when you’ve got a car-full.

Easy Third Row Access

Slide the second-row seats out of the way at the touch of a button for easy access to the third row. It’s a little feature that helps a lot.​​

Rear Occupant Alert

For your peace of mind, the new Santa Fe uses ultrasonic sensors to monitor the rear seats. If the system detects movement in any of the rear seats after the driver has left the vehicle, the horn will sound and the lights will flash.​​

KRELL Premium Sound System

KRELL’s premium audio system comes standard on all trims and delivers an immersive surround sound experience for everyone on board with 10 high-end speakers and an external amplifier.

Head-Up Display

Featuring class-leading luminance for easy visibility, the head-up display on the Ultimate trim helps you stay safe by projecting important information like speed, navigation commands and warnings directly onto the windscreen.​​

Wireless Phone Charging

Located in the centre console across all trims, a wireless charging pad lets you easily charge a compatible smartphone without the use of cables.​

Ventilated Front Seats

The front seats are available with a three-step ventilation system for a comfortable drive, whatever the weather. Standard on Ultimate trim.

New Hybrid powertrain for more efficiency and power

With its dynamic pairing of a turbocharged petrol direct injection and powerful battery-powered electric motor, the new Santa Fe Plug-in Hybrid is taking fuel efficiency to the next level. All without you having to charge a battery or change your driving habits. The hybrid switches seamlessly between the electric motor and conventional engine, sometimes utilising both at the same time.​

Space Saving New Platform

The new Santa Fe Hybrid is built on an entirely new platform designed with hybrids in mind. This allows lots of smart innovations – for example, the battery now sits under the passenger seats, providing a boost in efficiency with no impact on cabin or luggage space.​​

Powerful Electric Motor

The Santa Fe Plug-in Hybrid’s 66.9 kW electric motor delivers high torque and efficiency while also providing impressive acceleration off the line.​

Lithium-ion Polymer Battery 

The 13.8 kWh high- power battery has superior charge/discharge characteristics, maximising both electric driving and energy storage.​​​

6-Speed Automatic Transmission

A newly developed 6-speed automatic transmission further enhances Santa Fe Plug-In Hybrid's impressive efficiency credentials.

Lots of ways to charge

Thanks to its innovative powertrain technology, charging your new Santa Fe Plug-in Hybrid can be quick and convenient. Choose from home installation options and the ever-increasing number of public charging stations when you’re out and about. When you’re plugged in at home, you can remotely schedule charging via your smartphone and Bluelink® app during low-demand hours for lower electricity rate.

Home wall box / AC charging station

Depending on your grid connection at home or the type of public charging station you have access to, you have several possibilities for charging. One of which is a wall box or an AC charging station.​​

ICCB cable for domestic power sockets

You can connect to a regular household power socket using the ICCB-cable (in-cable control box). SANTA FE Plug-in Hybrid comes equipped with a 7.2 kW on-board charger, which converts AC power from the wall socket to DC power that charges the battery in the vehicle.​

Keeping you and yours safe

Experience true peace of mind with Santa Fe’s state of the art Hyundai SmartSense safety features and Advanced Driver Assistance Systems – including Highway Drive Assist and Reverse Parking Rear Collision Avoidance Assist. There’s even a new Remote Smart Parking Assist that will park your car for you.

Hyundai SmartSense is our cutting-edge driver assistance system. Every feature has been added to maximise safety through active monitoring and reactive support when required. It’s built to provide you and your passengers with optimum safety for extra peace of mind.

At speeds over 37 mph the system alerts the driver about unsafe movements. In case of an unintended lane departure, it will warn the driver and can apply counter steering to guide the car back to a safe position.

Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB)

Automatically applies the partial or maximum braking force if a potential collision is detected.

Driver Attention Alert (DAA)

This standard feature raises safety and convenience to an entirely new level by continuously monitoring and analysing driving patterns. When a pattern of fatigue or distraction is identified, DAA gets the driver's attention with an audible alert and pop-up message suggesting a break.

Emergency Stop Signal (ESS)

ESS helps warn surrounding traffic when emergency braking on the i20 is detected.
