Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

For 2020, the Santa Fe lineup receives minor updates that mainly include reshuffled content. The base SE and mid-level SEL models add a standard Rear Occupant Alert that reminds owners to check the back seat. The SEL also gets more standard driver assists (blind-spot monitor, rear cross-traffic alert, and more). All SEL models with the Convenience package now have wireless charging for phones. The top-tier Limited model now has premium doorsills, dark-chrome exterior trim, and a new Blind-View Monitor.

Pros
Excellent value versus rivals, enjoyable to drive daily, eminently practical cabin.

Cons
Not particularly quick, ho-hum interior design and materials, mediocre fuel economy.

The 2020 Hyundai Santa Fe ranked #2 in Midsize SUVs. Currently the Hyundai Santa Fe has a score of 8.5 out of 10 which is based on our evaluation of 21 pieces of research and data elements using various sources.

Pros
Comfortable ride
Good fuel economy
Quality interior
Lots of easy-to-use tech features

Cons
Underwhelming base engine
Rivals handle better
Less cargo space than some competitors

The 2020 Hyundai Santa Fe comes with front wheel drive, and all wheel drive. Available transmissions include: 8-speed shiftable automatic.Enhanced blind-spot safety tech now standard on Limited trim.Minor revisions to feature availability.Ultimate top trim is gone.

Pros
Abundant standard features for the money
High-quality interior materials
Generous warranty coverage
Several standard and optional active safety features

Cons
Base 2.4-liter engine's power and mpg are subpar
View out of the rear side is blocked by wide roof pillars
Sharp bumps can transmit harshness and road noise into the cabin

When the Pilot’s too big and the CR-V is too small, the 2020 Honda Passport two-row crossover SUV is just the ticket.

Pros
Comfortable interior
Refined on the road
Decent off-road chops
Good 8.0-inch touchscreen on some models

Cons
9-speed automatic is a little confused
Expensive in top models
Not too adventurous in style
Not as tough as some may need

By:

The Passport returns largely unchanged for 2020.

Pros
Spacious interior with lots of passenger space
Comfortable front seats
Enhanced off-road ability
Many clever storage compartments

Cons
Adaptive cruise control is only available over 20 mph
Driver's seat might be positioned a little too high for some people

By:

For 2020, Honda doesn't make any meaningful changes to the Passport lineup. This is to be expected since the company just re-released the two-row crossover last year.

Pros
Loads of cargo and passenger space,
speedy powertrain,
copious standard driver assists.

Cons
Looks more rugged than it is,
only top trims have top options,
rides rough on bumpy roads.
