I have owned a Santa Fe Highlander since Feb '22. It's simply the best car I've ever owned, and I've owned 2020 Mod V8 Mustangs, Land cruiser Prado's etc etc. A few things I certainly don't agree with your 'review' - and no, I'm not associated with Hyundai in any way. Wind noise? Nope - not at all - I think your kid must have had the window down, as that's never ever been a problem - or even noticeable for me & my wife. Did you have the sunroof open and then make that judgement? 7.2 Ltrs/100kms ! Wow! You must be a led foot! I drive city & suburbs, and rarely ever exceed 6.5 ltrs/100. !! Sluggish between 1st & second gear? Huh? Somethings very 'wrong' with the Santa Fe you drove - not a problem with mine, and my last car was a new model V8 Mustang. (I know the 'Highlander' does not accelerate as a Mustang can - but it's impressive - but never ever 'sluggish'. You said you wished 'The ride' was better? - I think that's an extremely unfair comment - are you biased in any way? For those that don't know - KIA is owned by Hyundai - Hyundai is the 'Parent company'. Hyundai gets the good gear first.
Isn’t that like every review? The other ones just don’t make that obvious but the basic choice of what stats to present implies the feeling of the reviewer
Ive driven the Toyota highlander and it was sluggish in the open road although very smooth for city drive. The Santa Fe has a more luxurious looks from the inside and the driving experience compared to highlander.
Hard to dislike the Santa Fe. It's non-offensive and a good family SUV. I do think there's a touch of vanilla about it though, the interior/infotainment could do with something a bit more exciting. I'd prefer the Sorrento GT to this.

Thanks for another great review of a solid SUV packed with lots of tech features.
Thanks for watching!
I signed out at the 3 min mark. Up to that point this is a review of her feelings about the car, not about the car.

0:02 why did you use the last gen Palisade?
Mainly because Emily has experience with that one. She is due to review the new-look version very soon.
Thanks

If you are overwhelmed by buttons, you need a psychologist, you delicate little flower. Buttons are better.
Hey the Highlander is a Toyota sport utility vehicle

How is the DCT gearbox?
Amazing for no traffic / highway drive. Annoys me a little on heavy traffic in the city
Like Sunday
