The new-gen Hyundai Santa Fe will be larger in dimensions and come loaded with more features.

The petrol engine will be a 2.0-litre motor producing 232 BHP of power. On the other hand, there will be a 2.2-litre CRDi diesel engine which will give 200 BHP of power. Both engines will come mated to an 8-speed automatic torque converter offered as standard. Power is sent to all four wheels and it comes with multiple driving modes.

When launched, the Santa Fe will displace the Tucson as the most premium SUV in Hyundai’s line-up in India.
