The prices and spec for the new contract hire Hyundai Santa Fe have been revealed and it is an impressive offering.
This is the excellent seven-seater Hyundai Santa Fe car lease model that has just been revealed.
The carmaker has added a new 1.6-litre turbocharged hybrid petrol engine and a plug-in hybrid alternative.
This is the firm’s flagship SUV, and it has been a popular choice in the UK since it was first unveiled in 2001.
It’s a spacious and well-designed offering with an attractive exterior design.
The Santa Fe also has lots of new safety and technology features.
Santa Fe car leasing range
Indeed, the Santa Fe car leasing range has lots of safety equipment including driver attention alert, downhill brake control and a blind-spot collision system.
Drivers also get to enjoy reverse and forward parking distance warning, lane departure warning assist and a forward collision avoidance system that detects pedestrians, bicycles and cars.
There’s also an impressive eCall system that will contact the emergency services should it detect the vehicle has been involved in an accident.
It helps too that the new model is slightly larger than the one it replaces to provide more space for occupants in the cabin.
Engines for the new Santa Fe
The engines for the new Santa Fe include the hybrid producing 230 PS, or the plug-in hybrid choice delivering 265 PS.
The latter has emissions of 37g/km to make it an attractive contract hire choice for company car drivers wanting a low Benefit-in-Kind rate.
The power is distributed using a six-speed automatic transmission and most models are two-wheel drive but there’s also the firm’s all-wheel drive system available, HTRAC.
To keep things simple, Hyundai is offering the Santa Fe with two trims, but they are both packed with equipment.
The Premium model costs from £40,205 and features privacy glass, 17-inch alloy wheels, an electrically adjustable driver’s seat, dual-zone climate control and adaptive cruise control.
Drivers also get a rear camera as well as a rear parking system.
Santa Fe Ultimate trim
The Santa Fe Ultimate trim costs slightly more and has a surround-view parking system, remote smart parking assist and a 12.3-inch driver’s digital instrument display.
There’s also a head-up display and the options include a Nappa leather interior trim, and the all-wheel drive system.
The big attraction for the plug-in hybrid Santa Fe is the potential of enjoying fuel economy of 173mpg, and an electric battery-powered driving range of 36 miles.
