Give me the Hyundai interior with the Kia exterior.

I like the Santa Fe quite a bit and respect how they went for it with something quite daring. However, the Sorento is more to my personal liking. It’s a great looking vehicle.

The '24 Hyundai Santa Fe was my choice because the turbo comes in the base model SE. I got a roomy, quick SUV for around $34K. If you want the turbo in the Sorento, you have to pay over $39K for the EX model. These 3 row crossovers are way too heavy for the 190 HP non-turbo base engine in the Sorento.

Also keep in mind you're comparing a refresh to a redesign. This particular Sorento would be more comparable to the last gen Santa Fe with regards to traditionalism. A great video non the less.

We love our new Santa Fe Limited. Great vehicle.

Everything Santa Fe is better except the rear end. But that rear end is growing inme now that I see them in person - better in person than picture/video

The hybrid is the powertrain to buy for either

Test drove the hybrid versions of both, Sorento SX Prestige vs Santa Fe Calligraphy. The Sorento is definitely noisier at highway speeds, and feels a little less refined overall. If you want a plush quiet ride with creature comforts, then between these 2 the Santa Fe Calligraphy is the way to go.
Also no spare tire on the Santa Fe hybrid, but the Sorento hybrid has it. For that reason alone we are going with the Sorento.

Hyundai over do things, they always redesign their cars and its sometimes kinda difficult to identify unless you see the logo. This new Santa Fe looks nice in the front but rear looks like an alien 👽

The screen for climate control is cool af. I rented a EV6 and it has the same screen and it was intuitive and very easy to use.

Went and looked it up to make sure and Hyundai motor group owns Hyundai, Kia and Genesis.

The Santa Fe seems better because of the layout of buttons for the AC. However the layout of the shifter is better for the Sorento. I line the looks of the Sorento better on the outside but the Santa Fe inside. The Santa Fe has better visibility foe driving and it's features seem more safer then the Sorento. I was just wondering is the Santa Fe column shifter the same set up as the Senota?

[tracyg]

What is that flashing blinking in the dash? I could not live with that all the time?

Love that Santa Fe interior, but the Sorento got my money with its PHEV.

[loudawg]

You hit the nail on the head. The Santa Fe was built by a person who actually sat in it, and the Sorrento is just cookie cutter.

[Burkhimself]

I lean Sante Fe because I love my ‘20 one…..

[magnoliap]

The Kia doesn’t offer a second row bench on higher trims, not everyone wants captains chairs. Hyundai is a no with that back end and DCT. PS that light interior in the Santa Fe will be dirty in 1 second! Most people don’t look out back windows anymore with so much technology helping. I pick neither.

[dwainmorgan]

I like what the Santa Fe offers but the Sorento looks so much better outside. I don't care for that shoebox look.

[greggattanucci]

The steering wheel looks cooler on the Santa fe.

[wardellward]

Can u get captains chairs in the Hyundai Santa Fe

[Jim-suen]

Kia choked on the Sorrento’s new front fascia
