Hyundai’s boxy, almost Land Rover-like redesign of its Santa Fe crossover stunned a lot of people.

Including $1,395 for destination, the 2024 Santa Fe starts at $35,345.

Hyundai offers the Santa Fe in five trim levels that are carried over from last year’s model. Between those models you can choose between a standard 2.5-liter turbocharged I4 with 277 horsepower and eight-speed dual clutch transmission or an optional 1.6-liter turbocharged hybrid engine with 231 total system hp paired with a six-speed automatic. Buyers can also choose between front or all-wheel drive with these engines.

Base Santa Fe’s are the SE trim, which starts at the aforementioned $35,54 or $37,145 with all-wheel drive. That gets you a standard suite of driver safety aids, full LED lighting, second-row bench seating with recline, a 4.3-inch driver display and a 12.3-inch center display with wireless and wired Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a 3,500-pound towing capacity with trailer sway control if you find yourself towing.

Stepping up to the SEL will set you back $37,845 and $39,645 for AWD. This trim is also the first in which the 1.6-liter hybrid engine becomes available for $38,345 and $40,145 for hybrid AWD. The SEL builds on the SE with features like front and rear parking assist, leatherette seating, raised roof rails, eight-way power driver’s seat with heating for the fronts, curved panoramic front display and wireless device charging.
