Frequently Asked Questions

What is the factory warranty on a 2026 Hyundai Santa Fe?

The vehicle comes standard with a 5-year or 60,000-mile new vehicle limited warranty. It also includes an unmatched 10-year or 100,000-mile powertrain warranty covering the engine and transmission. You can read the full details on the official Hyundai warranty page.

What is the standard engine in the gas-powered Santa Fe?

Every gas-powered 2026 Santa Fe is equipped with a highly capable 2.5L Turbocharged 4-cylinder engine. This powertrain delivers 277 horsepower and 311 lb-ft of torque across all trim levels.

Does the 2026 Hyundai Santa Fe have a dual-clutch transmission?

No, Hyundai has officially updated the powertrain for 2026. All gas models have dropped the previous dual-clutch transmission in favor of a traditional, smoother-shifting 8-speed automatic transmission.

How much can the Hyundai Santa Fe tow?

When properly equipped with trailer brakes, standard trims can tow up to 3,500 pounds. If you select the rugged XRT trim, the maximum towing capacity increases to 4,500 pounds when properly equipped.

Does the Hyundai Santa Fe have a third row?

Yes, all 2026 gas-powered models feature standard third-row seating. The vehicle can accommodate up to seven passengers, making it the perfect family SUV for Delaware County drivers.

Does the Santa Fe offer Captain's Chairs?

Yes, the Calligraphy and Limited trims feature standard second-row Captain's Chairs, adjusting the total seating capacity to six passengers while providing a wide center aisle for easier third-row access. A bench seat remains optional on the Limited trim.

What is the Santa Fe XRT trim?

The XRT is a rugged, off-road-inspired trim level. For 2026, it receives an exclusive new Terrain Mode. By turning a dial, you can select profiles for Mud, Snow, or Sand, which actively adjust the HTRAC All-Wheel Drive system to maximize traction in harsh conditions.

Are safety features standard on the base trim?

Yes, Hyundai prioritizes passenger safety. For 2026, advanced features like Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with Junction Turning and Smart Cruise Control with Stop & Go are now standard equipment across all trims, from the SE to the Calligraphy.

Is the Hyundai Santa Fe Front-Wheel Drive or All-Wheel Drive?

The SUV comes standard with Front-Wheel Drive (FWD). However, Hyundai offers its highly capable HTRAC All-Wheel Drive (AWD) system as an available upgrade across the lineup (HTRAC AWD is standard on the XRT).

Does the Hyundai Santa Fe require premium gas?

No, the standard 2.5L Turbocharged engine runs perfectly on regular unleaded gasoline. You do not need to purchase expensive high-octane fuel for your daily commutes.
