Poise when you least expect it.

Whether you have front-wheel or all-wheel drive, you’ll eventually encounter a surface that makes you wish you had more traction. And at that moment you’ll appreciate the Santa Fe’s standard Electronic Stability Control with Traction Control System.5

Optical sensors in the steering system and at each wheel compare where you want to go with where the car is heading. If a difference between the two is detected, Electronic Stability Control slows the appropriate wheel to redirect the car and help keep you on course. Studies have shown that drivers of SUVs and CUVs equipped with this system are 67% less likely to lose control of their vehicle and have an accident.

ESC is backed up by the Traction Control System, which limits power and applies brakes to individual wheels to reduce the occurrence of wheelspin, and routes power to the wheel with the most traction.

Together, both systems give the Santa Fe an uncanny assurance in slippery conditions, eliminating much of the white-knuckle apprehension one typically feels while driving in winter. Also worth mentioning: The same systems are standard on the front-wheel-drive Santa Fe as well, giving them nearly the same winter traction as all-wheel-drive models.

Santa Fe Safety Brake pad

Brakes that think so you don’t have to.

The safest car to be in is the one that helps you avoid accidents in the first place. ABS brakes feature Brake Assist to reduce stopping distances and Electronic Brake-force Distribution to stabilize the car when heavily loaded or while cornering. We know you’re likely to be carrying your most precious cargo.

Santa Fe Safety Headrest

Headrests that protect.

The most skilled drivers in the world can’t protect themselves from being rear-ended, but now anyone can dramatically decrease their chances of suffering whiplash. The Santa Fe’s standard active front head restraints move forward and up in a rear impact to protect your neck from overextending. Given that whiplash is one of the most common vehicle-related injuries and can lead to chronic, lifelong discomfort, we made these restraints standard on all models. Perhaps as impressive is the fact that there are no motors or electronics to wear out; the design uses body weight alone to react to impact forces.

Santa Fe Safety Body

7,316 welds, each with a purpose.

The Santa Fe’s top-level crash test ratings, surefooted handling and solidity are largely the result of its rugged unibody structure. Like essentially every car sold today, the Santa Fe structure originates from raw sheet metal, but it’s the exacting standards at Hyundai’s advanced factory in Montgomery, Alabama, that give the Santa Fe its strength.

During assembly, the body is welded by robots, then those welds are scrutinized by a separate legion of quality control robots and human inspectors. Over 7,000 welds go into the body of the Santa Fe in total, and to check their integrity, completed bodies are randomly removed from the assembly line and literally torn apart at the seams to ensure the strength our engineers demand.

We realize this might seem obsessive, but the truth is that if we cut corners here, the Santa Fe wouldn’t have the reputation for safety and refinement it currently enjoys.

Strategically placed crumple zones, side-impact door beams, and high-strength steel may not break the laws of physics, but they can certainly go a long way toward cheating them.

Santa Fe Safety Airbags

Airbags for both rows.

The six standard airbags11 in the Santa Fe protect front-seat passengers from front and side impacts. Side-curtain airbags extend to the rearmost seats to protect those occupants as well. And the Occupant Classification System can detect the size of the front-seat passengers and adjust accordingly. In fact, they’re so smart that if no passenger is detected, the passenger-side airbag won’t inflate, reducing repair costs.
