All-new SANTA FE Specifications: More Formidable Than Pajero Sport

KatadataOTO – The all-new SANTA FE has become one of the backbones of Hyundai's sales in Indonesia. Besides having a sporty design, the manufacturer has also equipped it with various other interesting advantages.

One of them is its engine performance, which is the largest compared to its competitors like the Mitsubishi Pajero Sport. This is because the all-new SANTA FE is equipped with the first turbo hybrid technology in its class.

It should be noted that the all-new SANTA FE uses a 1,600 cc Smartstream G1.6T-GDi HEV engine. The engine is paired with a turbo hybrid system, producing a maximum power of 235 PS at 5,600 RPM.

If this doesn't suit the customer, there is another option: the Smartstream G2.5 GDi engine, which offers 194 PS of power at 6,100 RPM.

This power is clearly greater than that of the Mitsubishi Pajero Sport, which uses a 2.4-liter Hyper Power turbodiesel engine. The power from that engine is 184 PS at 3,500 rpm with a maximum torque of 430 Nm at 2,250-2,500 rpm.

Not only that, the all-new SANTA FE is also equipped with a Dual Sunroof in the front and middle of the cabin. This is an advantage because the Mitsubishi Pajero Sport only has one sunroof at the front.

The all-new SANTA FE is also embedded with the Bluelink feature, allowing owners to be more connected to their car via a smartphone. Some features can even be controlled remotely, such as Remote Open and Close Window, Seat Heating/Ventilation

Furthermore, Bluelink also makes it easy for owners to view the vehicle's status, such as Fuel Efficiency. With this, fuel-related information can be monitored based on three condition categories: Since Last Reset, After Refuel, and Current Trip.

Then there is also View Around My Vehicle, which provides a 360-degree visual representation of the vehicle when the car is turned off.

All-new SANTA FE customers are also entitled to a basic warranty for 3+1 years or 100,000 km, a battery guarantee for 8 years or 160,000 km, and free spare parts costs for periodic maintenance for 3+1 years or 60,000 km.
