2024 Hyundai Santa Fe: Take a Look From Every Angle

In case you missed it, Hyundai has revealed the design of the all-new, fifth-generation 2024 Santa Fe ahead of its world premiere in August. It’s certainly one of the most radical transformations we’ve seen in the past decade and a polarizing one, too—especially in the rear.

The Korean automaker admitted to taking an “unconventional approach” with a “lifestyle-based design.” Do you like it or not? To be sure, check out this photo gallery that shows the 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe from every angle.

With a longer wheelbase and a much boxier exterior, the 2024 Santa Fe is moving away from the smaller Tucson and closer to the Palisade.

Below the high, flat hood up front, the H-shaped headlamps are connected by a light bar and harmonize with the H-motif lower bumper.

Here's a better look at the ubiquitous H-motif.

Muscular, geometrically shaped wheel arches house 21-inch wheels on the high-end model pictured here.

Blacked-out pillars give the illusion that the roof (with bridge-type rails and dual glass panels mounted on it) is floating above the cabin.

The side view is somewhat of a cross between a Lincoln and a Land Rover.

Notice how the taillamps replicate the H-motif, as well.

A more adventurous Santa Fe? We shall see...

While the rear end of the new Santa Fe is the most controversial aspect of the design, the larger hatch creates a more generous opening.

Lifting the rear hatch reveals a more spacious cargo area with what Hyundai calls a “terrace-like feel”—ideal for camping, tailgate parties and everything in between. Get this: the Santa Fe will once again be available with a third row.

The Land Rover-like interior design emphasizes horizontal and vertical lines, with an H-motif design applied to the dashboard and air vents. The materials are more refined and more sustainable, including some made from recycled plastic.

A single, curved display connects the digital cluster and infotainment system, both 12.3 inches in size. The shift buttons are replaced by a shifter on the steering column, similar to the one in Hyundai’s electric vehicles. 

The centre console is capped by a completely redesigned HVAC interface and allows for plenty of storage underneath. It even offers dual wireless smartphone charging.
