2024 Hyundai Santa Fe: boxy the new cool

Carmakers often modernize their vehicles, dispatching boxy for edgy or contoured designs. Not Hyundai. With its 2024 Santa Fe, the South Korean manufacturer has reverted to a square look for the sport utility vehicle’s debuting fifth generation.

Available in SE, SEL, XRT, Limited and the reviewed Calligraphy trim, the Santa Fe is approaching its 25th anniversary. It was an outlier in its infancy, seeking a niche audience in the quickly expanding family hauler and utilitarian marketplace.
