On the outside you will find a unique front fascia, off road style wheels, running boards and fixed roof rails. On the inside you will bee greeted to an 8in infotainment system, cloth seating and plenty of cargo space. Is the 2022 Hyundai Santa Fe XRT better than a Subaru Outback Wilderness?

i love how the driving part was a whole 10 seconds
yea that was weird. That memorable of a drive lol
🤣🤣🤣🤣
You sure 🤔🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨
I’m gonna say they did a fantastic job with this SUV and they definitely know how to make the front end of the vehicles stand out against everyone.
I am so glad that you are digging it.
@@RaitisRides Woo hoo!!!
@@mystictk4149 oh yeah!
Hi Joe. Appreciate if you can rate out of 5 to 22 Santafe limited and 22 Tiguan SEL R line comparing the same options/features both have.
I 🤔 that I agree but for that i'm really am not 100 percent of that
Bought one this past weekend in Portofino Gray, and I love it. Great ride, and the 191hp is strong. Based off driving it for a few days, it seems like that number maybe lower than it really is. I almost avoided it, due to reviewers saying it felt under powered, and I couldn’t disagree more. Once I did the test drive, I knew it was more than enough. The price is solid for what you get, tons of safety, and the steering assist and lane keep let you drive a good 30 seconds without touching the wheel. Fuel economy is avg, but it’s a heavy SUV. Storage space is really abundant, has underfloor storage as well. Also the infotainment is deceptively large, I can only imagine how big the premium one is. Has wireless apple car play, which is the only thing I use. Very happy with the purchase.
Hows thr xrt after few months?
@@vergellim7361 still great! No complaints, gotten a really good feel for it, mileage has gone up to about 31 avg without a heavy foot. Love the storage space, I’ve loaded it down and it doesn’t feel like it’s struggling so that’s a plus. Loving the looks as well, and the drive assist features are life changing!
@@MurphDawg4767 is it true that its kind of underpower in the freeway and feels heavy? Honestly I like the look of Xrt and considering this but hesitant of the underpower comments i heard about.
For me it’s good. But the thing about these reviews is they drive so many cars that are really fast, so when they drive a car that everyday drivers get it’s underwhelming/underpowered. When I’m on the highway, it doesn’t feel like I can’t merge, pass, or overtake. When I put my foot down it accelerates like expected. Go test drive it and see how you like it. Gotta remember it’s not. V6 or V8, but it’s capable.
@@MurphDawg4767 thanks man. I appreciate for the response.
I don't get all this off road stuff, most Americans the closest they get to off roading is a speed bump at the CVS drive through. No serious off road enthusiast is going to buy this anyways, they will buy a truck or a jeep or something.
I would go with the Outback. you are getting more for the money and a better all wheel drive system.
I like the Santa Fe’s interior but if we’re to pick between this or it’s cousin I’d go the Sorento X-line as I like the Sorento’s exterior better
That is the way that I would go Yasmin.
I truthfully am a santa fe guy, I had 2013 and loved it, then traded and I regret it. I will be investing in this.
Good point. And you get a third row.
@@matthewgeissinger2856 yes indeed which I'd never use cause I've only got 2 kids but handy to have in case I've got my 2 little cousins with me
Good job guys, bringing us the latest in car reviews. Lori, great camera work, as soon as Joe starting spraying not saying while reviewing the cargo space, you backed up real quick. Good reaction time. Keep up the great work guys.
Nothing like some Hyundai Santa Fe On Throttle Tiiiiiiiime!!! I'm digging this rig here Joe!!! Y'all stay grinding out the content Joe and Lori!!! #RaitisRides #OnThrottle
Thanks Mario for helping to make it worth while.
I love your reviews brother, nobody does them better in my opinion. I love how you go into detail and your color commentary about twinkies and kit kats lol 😁
Love the black and blue color combo. It has a few zonks but it is a nice looking suv.
I have to agree with you!
For some reason, most reviewers, including Joe, refrain from comparing closely related vehicles from KIA and Hyundai. Yet because of the many shared components and features along with some critical differences consumers may well be more likely to cross shop vehicles from Hyundai and KIA than either brand with vehicles (such as the Passport and Outback) from other automakers. In this case, the Santa Fe XRT is a closely related comparable vehicle compared to the Sorento S X-Line trim.
In terms of differences the Sorento offers foldable third row of seats, standard AWD, and slightly larger overall cargo space for essentially the same MSRP as an AWD Santa Fe. In addition, the Sorento offers an optional panoramic sunroof that isn't available on the Santa Fe. In short, anyone considering either the Santa Fe or the Sorento would do well to consider the other vehicle with the same engine and drivetrain, infotainment system, and a host of other shared components.
It baffles me too. GM tries to differentiate between Sierra and Silverado, but there are differences. I feel like because Kia marketed the Telluride as a more off-road capable vehicle, this may be Hyundai's answer to have an off-road capable flagship.
Hi Joe, I was watching the video (love watching all your videos BTW) but it seems like the video cut off when you were going to take the Santa Fe for a spin. Was that on purpose or an editing error?
That was on purpose.
@@RaitisRides how come??
I saw your video review for the XRT and I was HOOKED !!! I traded my 2016 Tucson Sport for a new 2022 XRT. The combination of Sporty / Rugged/ Included amenities / Plenty of space & and not your average mom mobile was a “ YES” for me !! Thanks Riati’s Rides
That is so wonderful AJ! You are very welcome.
same here, got a red XRT. Put on some Falken Wildpeaks for a more agressive look. Very happy :)
@@richardfranco3284 ..I chose white….are those low profile tires? I have yet to tint the front windows /windshield. Same here HAPPY😀
@@ajallen3452 no actually they have an all terrain look but feel like regular all seasons. I did lose a little bit of mpg, but for me the look are worth it :). I went a size bigger to 236/60/18s.
Sorry 245/60/18s lol.
Pretty nice. I would probably spend a little more and go Passport. 🤷🏻♂️ Thanks Joe and Lori. Great job!! 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
That is the way I would go!
@raitis rides We bought a 2020 Dark blue Santa Fe. A well made SUV. This is our 5th Hyundai. As always, Thanks for the great review 👍 John.
No on throttle?
Joe you're working too hard. You called this a Subaru XRT. Keep the content coming but take a break. 🤜🏽
Thanks for caring about me! I appreciate you!
Same goes for Lori. Hope you two enjoy the upcoming holidays.
Gotta have something for the blooper reel. 😜
I own a 2014 Santa Fe Sport 2.0 turbo and I’ve been pretty pleased with it. Good vehicle for the price. It’s nice that they’re trying to appeal with an off-road version, but I don’t feel like this hits the mark. If you’re looking for something to handle off-road driving, I’d recommend other brands.
I agree especially shit add air lift Suspension and get rid of the crappy tires and plates underneath at least then you can advertise it like everyone else does with their off road package but on the other hand it made be done with the santa cruz
Feel like Hyundai should’ve used a higher trim as their template for this XRT. Seems like a half-hearted effort imo.
I agree with you!
totally agree
What happened to the driving section?
I just bought this xrt and same color yesterday and love it. I might get the all black xrt when it gets back in stock for me and my wife's the blue one
Love the running board 👌 👍
i gotta zonk that generic looking infotainment system and no sunroof is definitely a surprise but overall a nice SUV for the price point.and as usual nice job on the review Joe
I hate it doesn't have a sunroof either.
I wish they would stop with the bumper turn signals. Makes it look like an add on
I totally agree with you!
Hey Joe and Lori how are y'all, nice video (and camera work as always)
I think it's cool that Hyundai is making a offroad Santa fe, but the updated Hyundai Santa fe is controversial with its shark/T style head lights and the rear light bar is not (so much) meant on the rear.
But that's nothing, compare to that grill (Its bigger then the BMW grill, but nobody talks about it), but weirdly it's not so controversial as bmw.
Comment down below what do you prefer, the Kia sorento or the Santa fe.
Hey Michael! I am going Sorento X Line.
@@RaitisRides I agree with the sorento, but Hyundai haves more technology.
But Kia haves that hidden rear wiper
@@Michael-vt5sj and looks better at least to me.
The 2.5NA is a miss, as it needs some more power. Also, the drive was really short, was it under embargo and will be put back in at a later date?
An extra inch of ground clearance and some meatier tires would have gone a long way, but would have impacted the fuel mileage. It's definitely not a true off road vehicle, but it's a good base to build off of for some lighter duty stuff. The non turbo engine is fine for most people and it drives smoothly with the 8 speed auto. The under floor storage in the back is something that people just don't talk about enough. I had to search the garage trying to find things to put in there and it keeps the cargo area completely free of stuff other than what you carry temporarily. you can also remove that divider in the forward part to make one huge storage area. My Limited is the Stormy Sea Blue and it truly is a fantastic color. I don't know why Hyundai doesn't offer more colors, though. They have some great ones in other markets.
I love how he always works food into all the measurements:)
Just got mine love it
That is so wonderful! Congrats!
One year ago today! Trying to get one Joe.
That is so very awesome!
That drive ended abruptly
What do you actually get w the xrt trim for the 1600 bucks besides black paint and badging? a skid plate made out of what? running boards which can hinder you off road but these dont stick out alot so i like them for ease of entry and roof access. curved cross bars are something but i would replace w flat yakimas. spare tire is on the outside which is nice but it needs to be full size. a tow hitch should also be included. to make it a real off road trim it needs taller tires and a one inch lift, tow hooks, more skid plates and a full size spare. optional turbo wouldnt hurt either. i like how hyundai lightens their roof pillars and headliner from the black interior bc all black is too much. listening honda? you dont get alot w the passport trailsport besides a v6 so this santafe is a better deal in my opinion. no sunroof is ok w me but they should all have 110v outlets w usb a and c front and back. when compared to the wilderness the subaru is prob the best offroader in this class though. actually rated #1 in midsize two row suvs for 23 by motortrend. santafe second. venza 3rd? it would be really cool to see a highlander sans 3rd row w a trd pkg, but nothing really compares to a jeep gc overland does it? thats 60k plus so these are ok for the price. ill stick w a laredo for now until they really juice up the passport ts like the pilot but it will prob cost 50k plus.
Yea. I would have liked a little more of the driving experience. You give good feed back joe. Pros and cons ?
Like this and the Kia sorento. Both are a better choice than my pos outback !
now that is one slick looking suv! hyundai killed this one
When you go out west, the two serious offroad vehicles are the Jeep Wrangler and the Toyota 4Runner. The rest are 1990s Toyotas. No one is using a Hyundai for offroarding and I own a Santa Fe. The Outback is barely of the offroading radar.
Short test drive.🤔😥
On throttle part was cut short 😆
Wasn't very exciting!
Kinda funny. The 1st gen samta fe was available with a 3.5 v6 190hp and 220 lb.ft weights like 500 pounds less and also awd. Not saying the old one is better but it feels like even though in 20 years the tech is there but lacking in other areas.
I know right!
Whoa! What happened to the driving portion? Something got cut. lol
Im sunkin this video.. U mention " lets pop tha hood, and see whats powering this subaru. Srt.... 😆
Thought I was the only one that caught that lol
Thank God I will buy one for myself
I love it my boy Joe keep up the work and I love look suv good 👍 and I love the video lot 💯 💯💯💯
Wich is better option ? Santa Fe or RAV4?
How are you Joe? HYUNDAI SANTA FE LET'S GO!!!
Doing great Tom! How are you man?
@@RaitisRides Doing pretty good!
@@stellantistom6881 That's awesome!
@@RaitisRides ;D
Hyundai's bread and butter SUV
You are sop right about that!
Can You Make 2022 BMW M440i Gran Coupe
I actually have one coming soon!
@@RaitisRides Can You make 2021 toyota rav4
@@Sunjib12345 yes indeed!
$35k doesn't even get you navigation anymore? No power seat adjust for the passenger? I love hyundai, I had a 2015 santa fe and traded it in for a 2021 palisade Calligraphy and we really like it. But I'm ki D of disappointed in the specs of this for the price. Great review as always though Joe!
Huyndai is really confusing me with all these front grill changing literally every year. It's like I don't know what new model I'm looking at when I see them on the road..
They change their cars every year, it like they competing with their self
Excellent
I am so glad you like this one.
A Subaru XRT, Joe (at the 07:01 videomark)?
Great looking with the XRT trim. I like it.
A 35k vehicle with no nav? Can't touch to adjust on the screen? Pass. Good review tho!
Use your Smart Phone with Apple/Android play wirelessly to the main screen.
Get out of the Stone Age *Gramps
Odd that you get the full digital cluster in the 35K Santa Fe but not in the 50K Genesis G70..
It is kind os ridiculous!
Is this better than the Kia Sorento?
There's no XRT badging on the rear of the HYUNDAI SANTA FE 🤨🤔🤨🤔🤨🤔🤨🤔🤨🤔🤨🤔🤨🤔😮😧😧😧😭😭😭 for the XRT part. Why don't Hyundai put the xrt on the Santa Fe
I rented this vehicle last weekend and the steering felt very strange. I felt no connection to the road. And when I parked on a decline I had trouble getting it into reverse.
What I would like to see on all of the HYUNDAI SUVs are the trims like the HYUNDAI SANTA FE XRT. What's the price point for the HYUNDAI SANTA FE XRT AWD
@7:00 powering the Subaru XRT.
How do you unfold the second row seats ?
Joe, what’s with the 5 second driving experience?
Seats 💺 look comfortable Joe!!!
6:58 a what? lol
Exactly how much has the suspension been tuned to compete with the likes of a Subaru, the Outback is a proven capable and durable product, is the Santa Fe going to start falling apart after a couple of years of living in Subaru country. Haven't herd much about the Santa Fe durability have seen some reviews illustrating what looks like a capable AWD system. Don't know whats going on with the 25 mpg on the hwy that is concerning other much more powerful suvs, including the Santa Fes own Turbo engine do considerably better.
i zonk the rear wiper. if hyundai would hide the wiper, it will have a cleaner look.
I like the way that you think.
Love your videos, with all your connections do you know anyone who makes a dual exhaust diffuser as I have the 2.5 2022 with the single exhaust and hate it, any suggestions
Nice color of this Hyundai Santa Fe XRT. Wish this had a 2.5T. Hyundai right? Not a Subaru?
Would the Hyundai Santa Fe XRT smash 2022 Nissan Pathfinder Platinum trim as far as specs goes?
Nope not even close.
Hey joe , just wondered what kind of car do u drive or family car you drive: I am a mom of 2 and I want a suv that suits for my family. We’re 5 in total thou.
Keep up the hazards during the reviews I love it, I know I’m weird lol
I am glad that you are liking this one.
I would rock this vehicle but really not a fan of turn signals at the bottom of the back bumpers
Cool, but the throttle time was too short!
something suspicious there,and Joe won't comment on it.
@@paulmueller6307 apparently, he said it was "on purpose"
@@SonyEnthusiast ,I get it, they can't all be HELLCAT'S.
I seen these in person. Looks interesting
It does stand out that is for sure.
So I’m assuming the reasoning behind putting such a small and underpowered engine in this is keeping cost down? I mean my god can the engine be any worse?
Hyundai is KILLING it lately
I totally agree with you!
what was the deal with the driving portion , did the "ON THROTTLE" blow up the engine?lol
Subaru XRT????
Look on the minute 7:00.....I am going to zonk that 😂😂😂😂
Joe,
you are doing great...you and your wife are doing excellent Team....
If Hyundai wants to actually get serious and make offroad cars they should definitely make a tuning shop like TRD from toyota or HPD from Honda. I think this is a good first step for them like what Subaru is doing. They got a long way to go until they reach the TRD level
I think they could develop something under the N branding.
@@RaitisRides Npro. Hey hyundai pay me😂
Toyotas aren't reliable like they used to be. They have too many issues than any Hyundai owners
@@america6529 that a lie
@@kromahj Hi troll.
During the 80s we thought we’d have flying cars by the year 2000! It’s now 2021 and we still don’t have flying cars🥲
I hope that day never comes.
pretty much a lot of missing options...what a highway robber at 35K
Those turn signals in the back honestly are just not even safe. They blend right into that rear reflector and they're all the way at the bottom. I wish they would cut that crap out. Not to mention, if you back into something or someone hit's you, you're probably losing your turn signals.
2022 Hyundai Santa Fe😍
XRT package.👍🏼😉😎
No moonroof means I’ll pass on this trim
Xrt also where the led fog lights
This or Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk
That is a very good question.
@@RaitisRides Voila😆😆😆😆😆😆
I like don't mind if no sunroof , I'd want those camera's in the screen for Turing be safer, not bad for 35 grand know here in California they'll mark it up big time seen a Santa Cruz 15 grand markup !!! No thxs
Hyundai dropped the ball on this XRT, on what is an otherwise great SUV.
They let the Hyundai bean counters prevail, by leaving out obvious "off-road" features like a front-facing camera, real AT tires, the higher torque Turbo 2.5 and the infamous turn-signal dash cameras - WTH Hyundai?? C'mon.
I'm glad you cut the driving review off early.
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ saving !
7:00 Joe its a Hyundai not Subaru XRT 😂 gotcha haha
“Y2K” was technically a December 31st, 1999 at 2359 problem
The car is more pretender than contender, especially if the off-road positioning is supposed to be taken seriously.
Better to cut the driving portion of the video entirely than to include a few seconds of it, then mysteriously jump to the end with no explanation. Don't leave viewers scratching their heads and perhaps jumping to conclusions.
Can you do the 2022 rav4 hybrid SE when they release them?
Subaru are safe cars but the sales are declining rather get Santa Fe like exterior and interior better.
Does the entire LED tail light light up at night? Do you know the answer to that Joe?
Yes it does.
Not really digging the front end on most Hyundais.
I know how you feel. I actually have been thinking the same thing.
Nice vehicle for the $…….I like the interior 👍….but I like Kia Sorento x line better…..but I guess that’s a three row
Thanks Joe and Lori !
I am so glad that I could bring it to you!
Either the cops finally pulled Joe over during the "On Throttle" portion, or Hyundai didn't make their monthly "Patreon donation" yet...positive driving impressions will be uploaded as soon as that happens. 🤫😉
I'm waiting for the Santa Fe White Bread
When does that come out?
Not sure I heard anything about that one.
People will take the Subaru Wilderness to go off road camping comparing with the Hyundai…!!! The low ground clearance of the Hyundai will not be enough !!!!
Do you go to Los Angeles auto show?
Running boards not necessary, wiper blade placement 👎
Now that is interesting!
which vehicle has wiper in the back window on the top?
There are man out there. The 2022 Hyundai Tucson is one.
