Hyundai Santa Fe Test drive since 2012 SUV
Santa with a gift
Hyundai Santa Fe: The time has come Someone will say muscular about him, someone will argue with this, calling him a pot-bellied one.
It is great exactly so as to wear the honorary title of the flagship of the model range. In the colloquial, his name is Santa, but this is not Santa Claus, this is a real Korean, although he also has a Latin Santa Fe name.
The impressive size and presentable appearance gave him the appearance of a large boss, who was not ashamed to give way. To have in the arsenal the only V-shaped 2.7-liter six engine, such an important person, frankly, is not solid. And the situation is corrected: recently, Hyundai Santa Fe has acquired a new diesel engine with a volume of 2.2 liters and a capacity of 150 hp. I must say that, having added thanks to the mushroom diesel in the equipped mass 73 kg, the Korean became more thorough in every sense.
Let me remind you that the latest generation Hyundai Santa Fe biography began in 2006 compared to the predecessor of the wheelbase now stretched by 8 cm to 2.7 m, the body grew by 18 cm and reached 4.68 m. Now there is a place for accommodation for accommodation The third row of passengers, and the volume of the trunk can vary from 528 to 1582 liters, depending on the position of additional seats. (Unfortunately, the seven -seater Hyundai Santa Fe is available only in the version equipped with a gasoline engine.)
The rumble of a diesel engine for fans of these engines is akin to singing a paradise bird. In Hyundai Santa Fe at idle, the engine sings quietly and unobtrusively, and most importantly, almost without vibrations.
The pedal to the floor, and the Big Korean breaks forward. Bypassing almost 13 and a hundred on the speedometer, the arrow in an even movement continues its way to the maximum mark. The motor, together with a five -speed automatic, accelerates the Korean smoothly and stably. A good dynamics of the new engine is pleasantly combined with its moderate noise. The motor allows you to squeeze from 2.2 liters of a torque of 335 nm, and that the most pleasant fuel consumption in the mixed cycle shows 8.1 liters per hundred.
Comfort when moving Santa Fe provides a multi -link suspension, which successfully extinguishes even serious irregularities. But you have to pay for comfort with significant rolls in corners. With emergency maneuvering, the car requires special attention, and at high speeds at the straight line, there is a chronic disease of a large crossover: the driver is often chosen to hold the desired trajectory of movement.
But confidence in itself is also given by an anti -boom system with blocking the coupling of all -wheel drive, all the advantages of which can be evaluated by exporting the Korean in the snow or soil. On rough terrain, do not forget about the plastic protection of the bottom, overhangs and thresholds.
The spaces in the car salon will be quite convenient for all five passengers. The front seats have a wide range of electrical regulations, which will allow you to take a convenient pose without much difficulty, but there is no lateral support at all.
The top package of diesel Santa Fe includes six airbags, rain and light sensors, ESP, ABS+EBD, electric package, skin in the cabin. The price of diesel Hyundai Santa Fe ranges from 1,115 610 to 1,291,324 rubles, which can slightly overshadow its prospects due to the presence of strong fellow countrymen of classmates Ssangyong and Kia.
