For 2019 this model is called the Hyundai Santa Fe XL and it is priced from $30,850 MSRP.
For that you get an elongated Santa Fe with seven seats, an enhanced navigation system and HD radio. The Hyundai Santa Fe XL is available with front or all-wheel-drive and comes in four trim levels, all powered by the same 3.3L GDI V6 engine mated to a six-speed SHIFTRONIC automatic transmission. Among the car’s top family-oriented features that come as standard on the base model, one can mention the reclining second row with 40/20/40 split folding seatbacks, sliding second-row seats with cargo area releases, stain-resistant cloth seats, sunvisors with illuminated vanity mirrors and extensions, BlueLink, rear seat HVAC and vents, dual zone air con, roof side rails, and trailer prep package with 5,000 lbs. towing capacity.
