2021 Hyundai Santa Fe Calligraphy VS 2021 Santa Fe Limited
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 лют 2025
- Another video brought to you by comments and questions! Today we review some of the biggest differences between the 2021 Hyundai Santa Fe Calligraphy and Limited trim levels. The Santa Fe Calligraphy has been so elusive for me to get my hands on because most are sold before they arrive at the dealership. Luckily one slipped through the cracks and I had just enough time to do the comparison between the Limited and Calligraphy packages the new Santa Fe from Hyundai. Sit back and Enjoy my quick walk around on two of Hyundai's hottest SUVs!

I love the Calligraphy trim! I was comparing these two trims on l Hyundai's website, & I love the monotone body color design on the Calligraphy trim versus the black plastic body cladding on the Limited trim. The Calligraphy trim makes the Santa Fe feel as nice as a top-trim GV70 with either engine or GV80 with the same 2.5T engine for less money than both of those cars
If space is the real need, Palisade over GV80 all day.
The Calligraphy also adds one-touch up & down rear windows, whereas the Limited only has it for the front windows....it’s the little things that add up collectively to make the Calligraphy worth the extra $2k difference!
Yep!
@@MiguelMyCarGuy I regard 2 points as a negative on the Caligraphy. 20 inch rims ride harsher and reflect the stupid tendency of manufacturers to go to excessively large wheels, plus the 19s look better than the asymmetrical 20 inch. Plus, artificial leather is better over the course of years than real leather that dries and wrinkles. Not that I wouldn't get the Calig, but I'm buying the PHEV where I can only get the Limited.
I started working at Hyundai these videos have helped so much with training
Glad to hear it!
Thank you for this comparison. I compared on the website, but it was really helpful seeing with actual cars.
My pleasure!
What type of tires does those vehicles have
Is it true that the Calligraphy rides harsher than the limited because of the wider tires and the bigger wheels? That's a big factor for me.
I've driven both versions a lot and i don't notice a difference in ride at all. Test both of them yourself and if you're in Orlando, I would love to work with you. Make an appointment here: schedulewithmiguel.as.me/
@@MiguelMyCarGuy Any thoughts on which model is quieter on highway cruise - the hybrid Limited (when gas engine is running) or the non-hybrid Limited?
The engines aren't too loud on either when they're running. But the hybrid is a little smoother when it's in EV mode.
Great review for a buyers
Thanks. I try
Very good and thorough identifying marks to distinguish between a limited and calligraphy trim on the Hyundai Santa Fe. I liked the video 👍
Happy to know people like my vids. Thanks a lot!
@@MiguelMyCarGuy All the way from Canada
Great review!! It was hard to tell the difference but i see it now! Thank you!
Youre welcome
That makes absolutely makes no sense Miguel at all for Hyundai to place a spare tire on Santa Fe limited model, but not in the Calligraphy model,... when both vehicles carry the same weight...so what weight saving are they saving on...give me a break Hyundai with that poor lame nonsense excuse.
My question to you Miguel, will I be able to purchase a spear tire separately and can it be placed and attached with the tire holder device underneath the vehicle of the Calligraphy model.🤔🤔🤔
Thank god we don't have that single exhaust outlet in the uk it looks really silly and those s shaped spoke wheels like on the red one
The US is a slightly different style? Interesting...
@@MiguelMyCarGuy its mote the exhaust.single exhausts now look a bit odd but good video
@@MiguelMyCarGuy yeah the uk model doesn't have that
Can you please do a comparison between the Santa Fe 2021 `Calligraphy Vs. Limited Hybrid'? I'm kinda conflicted with which to go with
Thank you for this video! Incredibly helpful showing the differences between the two.
Youre welcome!
Thank you, this was super helpful. I hope you do a comparison with the 2021 Santa Fe hybrid too 😊
Yes, that one is on the list
Miguel
Do you happen to know if the 2022 model will be coming out, if so when will they be on the market.
The 2022s are at my dealership right now.
I'm meam 2023 models
No idea.
can you add a spare tire to the Calligraphy?
very helpful, love the the review
Thanks a lot!
The calligraphy is worth it just for grille alone. But extra fancy for the interior really up scales it.
The Calligraphy is nice
What color is the calligraphy's grill? Is it shiny black or smoked chrome?
@@Pablo-hw5ik Its dark chrome
@@night5091 ohhh thats good, I thought the chrome on the limited looked better. Thanks mate
@@Pablo-hw5ik I saw a limited in person. Prefer the darker grille. Depends what you’re into. Anytime man.
Thank you for your review! What do you think which model is good for mom ? Tusan or santafe? Which trim is better for mom! Thank you again
I don't know your mom. What does she like?
@@MiguelMyCarGuy she like to drive and she has 2kids(3month old and 5yrs)
Great video lito. I was hoping to be in the video lol
🤣🤣🤣 If I cursed in my videos, you definitely would have been when you honked that damn horn!
The Caligraphy is the only Santa fe trim package that has the colored ambient lighting also.
True
Great video. Wish I could buy a car from you but I’m not in Orlando
I do too
thank you so much for the review
My pleasure!
I find it strange Hyundai doesn't add a badge or some sort of indication that it is a Limited or Calligraphy on the back.
Interesting
great review. Hands on!
Great video! You mentioned a must for me - the spare tire! Do you know if the 2022 model is the same way? I really wanted the upgraded wheels, interior of the Calligraphy - but I want my spare tire~
Followup - With the facts you provided in the 2021 video - I think I found the answer to the "no spare tire" on the 2022 on Hyundai's website. When I compared trim models, there it was under the MECHANICAL section (at the very bottom) - as you mentioned TIRE MOBILITY KIT. It appears if you are getting an AWD for either the Calligraphy or Limited - you are not getting a spare tire and you are getting the TIRE MOBILITY KIT instead. Can you confirm this?
This video should be shown by every salesperson at Hyundai dealers everywhere. I'm amazed that salesperson around here couldn't accurately describe this information to us. Thanks
You're welcome!
What is the cost difference between the two model’s?Nice video very informative.
Thanks! MSRP to MSRP of a FWD Limited to the AWD Calligraphy is about $3500.
@@MiguelMyCarGuy What is MSRP difference between Limited AWD vs Caligraphy AWD?
Same question. If I get a Limited trim and get the AWD what is the price for limited vs Caligraphy?
@@lenak1171 ofcourse its $2k. The AWD option is $1.5k
How do u make the headlights move and slither? I can't find any videos that they show how to, but the videos show them move
Its because of the camera. It doesn't do that in person
When will the hybrid one be available?
Towards the end of the year.
They already on sales.
Hi Miguel, Could you please make a video about the hybrid models? Thanks
Yes. Im just waiting for a few to arrive
I've got mine about a week now. Calligraphy mine come with 20in wheels. So now I have 2 calligraphies now. 2021 Palisade calligraphy awd and 2021 Santa Fe calligraphy. The Santa Fe has better tech. The driver assist is better and feel more power too. I pay 53k on a palisade and 50k for the Santa Fe awd . I know I over pay. But the problems are you can't find one now. The dealer marked 3k on my palisade and 2.5k the my Santa. I love both of them. If y'all can find one or get one get it.
Suckerrrrr born everyday, theirs no wayyyy in helllllll I would everrrr over pay any vehicle over the asking sticker price, sorry to say but they lied to you like noooooo tomorrow 😂🤣😂🤣😂
@@mlm398 well i guess your broke asss haven't buy a new car why ain't you go out there to try to buy and come back and delete your comment
I have the same car. Intermittently the radiator fan will run at full speed for 1-2 mins, Hyundai says this in normal behavior, so my question to you is do you experience this too? Also you should know that we baby the car too , Thanks - Rick
Thanks. Do you know why the 2021 Hyundai Santa Fe Calligraphy doesn’t have standard 20” wheels on both calligraphy models? One comes with FWD 20inch wheels while the AWD comes with 19inch wheels??🤔 Both trims also offer two different wheels which aren’t interchangeable. Prefer the 19” wheels look but with 20” tires/wheel size.
No idea. Possibly production issues with corona?
IS the HUD nav just for the on board NAV or will it display Apple Car play?
Just for the NAV on board.
Good to know the roadside service covers flats
True
Limited vs SEL is it worth the upgrade?
If you like technology, then absolutely
@@MiguelMyCarGuy so the SEL with the premium package is the limited or are they 2 different things?
Does the caligraphy has ambient lighting?
Yes
@@MiguelMyCarGuy can you show it to us and the colors?
When are we gonna get the calligraphy with the 20 inch rims already?! 🤔😫
Hopefully later this year.
@@MiguelMyCarGuy hopefully?! 🙄 I seen the 20 inch rims on the Santa Fe in other videos from other countries. Why is it taking so long to get them here?
Thats a question for the Factory. Maybe parts shortage?
Just got mine with the 20”s!! So they’re out there! There were a handful with pictures on auto trader.
@@aschlumper1 awesome! Where did you find it?
What is a good drive-out price for the 2021 Santa Fe Calligraphy?
Head to your local dealer and find out
I like the chrome/polished grille of the limited better than the calligraphy
It does pop a little more.
Can you get heads up display in the hybrid?
Miguel if u were closer to me.. i would buy there good info
Well you could always move to Florida. No state income taxes! 🤑🤑🤑
Subbed
Thanks a lot!
Hyundai need those fire Calligraphy rims.
Yep! Hopefully they drop soon
they have arrived with those 20 inch rims. It looks good.
Don't get a spare tire with the Limited if it is AWD.
I've heard something similar with the Kona AWD from someone up north.
Why?
So for 10K less I can get the same car with the same engine and only miss out with some gimmicky finishings I dont really care about. Thanks.
Next time tie his hands behind his back when he speaks.
🙌
Does the calligraphy have interior ambient lighting?
Yes, it has
Yes
Yes, the Caligraphy is the only Santa Fe trim package that offers the ambient lighting
