The base 2022 Santa Fe model comes standard with many appealing features. You can get a 2.5-liter inline four-cylinder engine, capable of producing 191 horsepower and 181 lb-ft of torque. Depending on your preferences, you can get this midsize crossover’s standard four-wheel drive or upgrade it to an all-wheel-drive system for enhanced traction. This engine and drivetrain pair with an automatic eight-speed transmission, allowing for a smooth and enjoyable ride.

The SE’s interior comes with a standard six-way adjustable driver seat, allowing the driver to position the seat for optimal comfort and visibility. Other features include a 4.2-inch color multi-information display, 60/40 split seats, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, dual front and rear USB outlets, and a Bluetooth hands-free phone system.

The SE also has several high-quality exterior features, including the standard LED headlights, LED daytime running lights, high beam assist, and a sleek rear spoiler. Consider upgrading the 2022 model’s lighting system with available LED turn signal indicators.

2022 Santa Fe SEL

The SEL has many of the same standard features as the base SE model, along with some new impressive features. Drivers can upgrade the engine in this model to the more powerful turbocharged 2.5-liter engine that can produce 277 horsepower. Fuel mileage stays the same with an estimated combined fuel rating of 26 mpg with an 18.8-gallon fuel tank. This means that no matter the model, the 2022 Santa Fe can go the distance with fewer fuel stops along the way.

The interior and exterior features are really where the differences come into play. Standard interior features of the SEL include an eight-way power driver seat, driver seat two-way power lumbar support, heated front seats, Bluelink Connected Car Service, HD radio, wireless device charging, and a proximity key entry with a push-button start.

2022 Santa Fe XRT

Coming with all the standard features of the previous trim model, the XRT trim option has many appealing add-on features. As it has the same engine, transmission, and performance options as the SE and SEL trims, these new features are really where the XRT shines.

Some dynamic interior features include power-release second-row folding seats and dual automatic temperature control with CleanAir Ionizer and Predictive Logic. It also comes with a leather-wrapped steering wheel, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, manual rear side sunshades, and an auto-dimming rearview mirror with HomeLink.

If a sleek exterior is what you want out of your crossover, the XRT has many standard features not found with previous trims. It comes with standard fascia trim, dark silver skid plates, exclusive side moldings, side steps, a dark finish front grille, black side-mirror covers, and black roof cross rails. Other standard features that are optional in the previous model include side mirror approach lights, acoustic-laminated front side glass, a hands-free smart liftgate, and a Hyundai digital key.
