Too bad the Pilot is not in hybrid until 2026, it might have been a contender. Took it on our first road trip last week and was it ever a dream to drive and travel in!

    We’ve been looking forward to your review on this trim level of the Santa Fe as it’s the one we’re most interested in with the Hybrid. It seems to check a lot of boxes, even the boxy shape and controversial design elements. We’ve had a 2017 Kia Sorrento that we enjoyed and currently have the Kia EV6 GT-line which we’re happy with. We’re looking for a road trip vehicle and the gas mileage on this would be great as well as the comfort and many upgraded tech features. We wish we could be excited about the latest Honda Pilot because of their reliability but find the exterior and interior styling lacking as well as no hybrid available. Appreciating your reviews, hope your Santa Fe is once again repaired and that you have no further issues!

    Just a suggestion. When you are telling people in your review which button(s) to push to open the sunroof(s) it would be nice to actually show which button you are pressing rather than just showing the opening of the sunroof. I purchased a 2024 Santa Fe Calligraphy about 2 months and don’t remember being shown where the buttons are to open the sunroof are and of course the salesman is now too busy. In addition, the screen where many of the buttons are like the ac and the fan speed are impossible to see on a very sunny day. Badly designed.

    I read that the Caligraphy hybrid gets the relaxation seat for the passenger (same as the driver side). Is that true? Also, I believe those buttons on the inside of the passenger seat are unique to this Caligraphy hybrid model; I have not seen them on any other trim, including the Caligraphy 2.5l ICE model.

    You're mistaken on Calligraphy designs of wheels. They are both black and different sizes like said, the design isn't the same. Similar but not a copy.

  • @0pelman

    It's the wide-ratio version of the old A6MF2 they've been using for 15 years. Sturdy and dependable. The 8 speed is evolved from this unit but has more internal friction due to the extra clutch pack but still only applying two frictions per drive ratio. With the electric motor in place of the torque converter, there is ample torque and the steeper first gear isn't needed - so the 8 speed ratios are not necessary. Although the 8 speed has a slightly taller overdrive, the difference in economy would be negligible versus the added cost and increased friction it would bring to the table.

    They don’t, most other companies like Toyota, Honda, Nissan (overseas) use what’s called an eCVT in varying ways to achieve better response and efficiency. It pairs 2 electric motors together with a gasoline engine, in the case of Honda and Nissan the engine works as generator for the traction battery (only the e-motor drives the wheels). In Toyota’s version it allows the engine to drive the wheels together with the e-motor as well as operate in generator mode (Toyota’s system is considered the best). This transaxle has less moving parts than traditional stepped automatic and provides superior fuel economy, it’s also more EV (instant torque) like in the way that stepped automatic isn’t.

    ​@@tails300 The Toyota system does better in town but not as well on the highway due to limitations of the HSD being unable to run in EV at very high speeds. They tweaked the HSD in recent years to overcome the limitation but the Hyundai setup still has its advantages. The Hyundai system places the motor before the gearset so the motor torque is multiplied through the gearset to provide more acceleration without firing the engine. The Lithium Polymer battery can charge/discharge at a faster rate without damage so this Santa Fe can run in EV in a wider range of conditions than the comparable Toyota. My daily driver is a '23 Elantra hybrid and it offers 70-90mpg in suburban commuting. My sister - who learned to drive by watching the last ten minutes of the movie "Thelma and Louise" - is getting 50-60mpg in her 2021 Sonata hybrid. The Sonata setup is the closest to the Santa Fe layout, while the Elantra uses a simpler motor setup with an automated manual transmission. Nissan has no hybrid setup although they licensed the Toyota HSD about a decade ago. The current Honda system is much closer to a serial hybrid - like the old diesel locomotives - and doesn't have the fuel economy potential of the Hyundai or Toyota systems.
