To suit the needs of all types of families, the easy-to-clean Nappa leather appointed seats^[P1] are arranged in a 2-3-2 row configuration, with a variety of rear seat split folding configurations (ie. 2nd row split 60/40 and 3rd row 50/50) so you can easily maximise the passenger and cargo spaces.

There’s no compromise at all when it comes to safety in the SANTA FE. Whether it’s a family weekend away or dropping your little ones off to school, you’ll want the complete peace of mind of 7 airbags – one for every precious passenger,  including a front centre airbag.

The FCA-JT  system is designed to reduce the risk of collision by detecting and monitoring oncoming vehicles. When the driver activates the SANTE  FE’s indicators to turn right at a junction, the system recognises any oncoming vehicles ahead using its front view camera and front radar. If there’s a risk of a collision, it produces warning messages or haptic warning alarms accordingly and applies emergency braking if needed.

_{Highlander variant shown.}

SANTA  FE’s Multi Collision Braking MCB system does the thinking for you, applying the brakes in situations where you’re unable to. Once an airbag has opened due to a collision, MCB sends information to the electronic control system automatically engaging the brakes to help prevent any secondary collision. It’s this kind of Santa Fe technology that offers you and your family peace of mind.

The Surround View Monitor (SVM) generates a 360- degree bird’s eye view around your SANTA  FE, displaying it on your multimedia screen to assist you in successfully manoeuvering tight parking situations.

Imagine coming back to your car after a long day of shopping and finding two cars parked so close either side of you that you can’t open your doors to get in. With SANTA FE, that’s not a problem. Simply activate Remote Smart Parking Assist with your smart key and watch your Santa Fe drive itself straight out of that tight spot, so you and your passengers can comfortably hop in. Better still, your Santa Fe can drive straight into tight parking spots exactly the same way.

_{Available on the Highlander variant.}

With a single USB port in the 1st row, 2 x USB ports in the 2nd row and now even one in the 3rd row, you’ll have longer periods of uninterrupted peace all-round.

No matter what the weather, everyone front to back gets to travel in comfort with cooling and heating that extends all the way to the back of the cabin, thanks to dedicated air vents in both the second and third rows, and a manual air-con control in the third row too

From fishing rods to school science experiments, whatever you need to carry with you, the family-friendly Santa Fe can handle it all with 571 litres- 782 litres [P6] of bootspace with the 3rd row seats folded flat or up to 1,649 litres of total cargo cpacity with both the 2nd and 3rd row floaded flat.

You’ll never have to put your gear on the ground. Automatically raise the tailgate hands-free and foot-free simply by standing behind your boot for 3 seconds with your smart key. There are adjustable opening speeds too. Genius.

The songs your family loves to sing are as close as your phone. And your favourite apps are all at your fingertips with Apple CarPlay™^[P2] & Android™ Auto^[P3] compatibility with voice command, steering wheel-mounted controls and of course the 10.25”multimedia touchscreen.

_{10.25” touchscreen available on the Elite and Highlander variants. Highlander variant shown.}

For easier 3rd row entry and exit, a one-touch button quickly collapses and slides forward the 2nd row seats, so kids can get into and out from the 3rd row much more easily and with little assistance.

Like a second set of eyes, this system uses radar sensors in the rear bumper to look out for vehicles in the driver’s blind spot. When BCA-R detects a vehicle in those blind spots (including when a driver is exiting out of a parallel kerbside space), it provides visual and audible alerts, and if it detects a potential collision, it initiates active avoidance steering manoeuvres to steer the Santa Fe out of harm’s way.

_{Highlander variant shown.}

Signalling left or right with the SANTA FE’s indicators will activate BVM. This safety system can see cars travelling in rear blind spots and projects real-time video onto the 12.3″ supervision cluster, giving the driver an even better driving picture to respond to.

_{Available on the Highlander variant.}

DAW analyses your driving behaviours over time. If it notices signs of fatigue or recognises you’ve been driving continuously for an extended period, pop-up messages and audible warnings will suggest you take a break.

This system utilises front radar sensors and a windshield-mounted camera to detect cars in front that have become too close for comfort. It can also detect pedestrians and cyclists travelling in front and will automatically apply the SANTA FE’s brakes if there’s the chance of a collision.

The FCA-JT system is designed to reduce the risk of collision by detecting and monitoring oncoming vehicles. When the driver activates the Santa Fe’s indicators to turn right at a junction, the system recognises any oncoming vehicles ahead using its front view camera and front radar. If there’s a risk of a collision, it produces warning messages or haptic warning alarms accordingly and applies emergency braking if needed.

Switching between high and low beam has never been easier during night-time or when in low visbility areas. This innovation scans the road ahead looking for headlights of oncoming cars, then automatically adjusts the SANTA  FE’s headlamp range, switching between high and low beam.

LFA uses the front windshield-mounted camera to detect lane markers and preceding traffic on the road, and provide steering assistance to ensure the vehicle stays in the centre of the lane.

This steering-assist function detects lane markings to monitor your SANTA FE’s position in the lane. Should you stray from a lane without activating your indicators, an audible and visual warning will be sounded and, where required, steering intervention will be provided to keep you in your lane.

When you’re slowly reversing the SANTA FE, such as in a garage or parking spot and the PCA-R system anticipates a collision with an obstacle, the system warns the driver with visual and audible alarms while engaging the vehicle’s emergency brakes to prevent the collision.

_{Available on the Highlander variant.}

This technology makes exiting a parking spot much safer. When the SANTA FE  is in reverse, rear sensors monitor vehicles and pedestrians approaching from the sides and rear. If something enters a blind spot, an audible warning will sound and a visual alert will appear in the supervision cluster. Then if necessary to prevent a collision, emergency braking will be activated.

This system monitors the SANTA FE’s rear doors opening and closing so nothing is accidentally left behind inside the SANTA FE. When the driver stops the engine and opens their door to exit, ROA will display a “Check rear seats” warning message in the supervision cluster.

_{Available on the Santa Fe and Active variants.}

This system includes all the elements of standard Rear Occupant Alert (ROA), plus it will sound an audible warning alarm if it detects any movement in the rear seats after the ignition of the Santa Fe has been turned off and locked by the driver.
