Car Review: 2017 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport
As an employee of a dealership, I have the ability to test drive nearly anything on our lot that I want to. I've been eyeing the new Santa Fe Sport, as it's very similar to the new forester.
So, when compared on paper, the Forester XT with the 2.0L Turbo and All-Wheel Drive in Limited trim is very close to the Santa Fe Sport 2.0T AWD Ultimate in both power, dimensions, price and performance. So, all else being more or less equal, that CVT ruins the Subaru for me.
This car is the base trim level, but by no means cheap quality.
But, please, don't take my word for it. Go test drive one sometime.
Check out this car, as well as other Hyundai models here.
Big thanks to Tyler L, the sales manager at Suburban Hyundai of Lansing, for setting this test drive up.
Thanks for reading.

For $28,050, you get a quite well-equipped vehicle. Fog Lamps, LED running lights and finished in Marlin Blue. |

The interior is well equipped. Tan cloth seats, Tan dash trim and door accents, Grey wood grain, and some brushed Aluminium. |
