Pros Spacious interior Generous standard equipment Competitively priced
Cons Noisy engine Crashy ride Stodgy handling
The SsangYong Tivoli XLV takes the stylish Tivoli and makes it bigger. It looks a bit more awkward than before, but it’s also more practical.
PROS Extremely versatile Generous warranty Good value
CONS Noisy engines Challenging styling Not the most economical
Hyundai is on a good track. For starters, the new ute looks more grown-up and handsome. The rear glass is more vertical, a boon to headroom for the sort-of-optional third-row seats (more on that later) and cargo space. With shorter overhangs, a longer wheelbase, greater length, and slightly more girth than the ’18 Santa Fe Sport, interior space is up, too. Hyundai increased visibility by employing what it claims is 41 percent more glass area than in the outgoing Santa Fe Sport to nurture the target markets of empty nesters and families moving up from a sedan.
Pros Sharp looks, bigger inside and out than the Sport it replaces, packed with features.
Cons Some low-rent plastics inside; small fuel-economy bump; so which one is this, again?
The 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe is a convincing crossover SUV with room for families and cargo.
Pros Smooth ride Compelling value trims with plenty of features Standard active safety features Spacious interior Sharp style
Cons No available options from the factory 8-speed automatic could use a finishing touch Average fuel economy Thin-feeling cloth and leather
The 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe is redesigned New interior and exterior look New two-row design Part of the fourth Hyundai Santa Fe generation introduced for 2019
Pros Abundant standard features for the money High-quality interior materials Generous warranty coverage Several standard and optional active safety features
Cons High-quality interior materials Base 2.4-liter engine's power and mpg are subpar
