The 2027 Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid is a three-row SUV with a hybrid powertrain in every trim. Hyundai offers it in four versions in Canada, and each one comes with all-wheel drive, a turbocharged engine paired with an electric motor, and seating for six or seven people.
If you’re curious about how it drives, how much fuel it uses, how much it can carry and what tech comes with it, this guide covers the essentials in plain language. We’ll go through the key facts one topic at a time, so you can get a clear picture of the Santa Fe Hybrid before you start comparing trims.
Every 2027 Santa Fe Hybrid uses a 1.6 L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine teamed with a 59 hp electric motor. Working together, they produce 231 hp and 271 lb-ft of torque. Power flows through a 6-speed automatic transmission to Hyundai’s HTRAC all-wheel-drive system, which is standard on the entire lineup.
The electric motor draws its energy from a 1.49 kWh lithium-ion battery. There’s no charging cable to deal with, since the hybrid system manages the battery on its own while you drive. The engine runs on regular unleaded fuel, and Multi-terrain Control Modes plus an electric parking brake with Auto Hold come standard on every trim.
Efficiency is one of the main reasons shoppers look at the Santa Fe Hybrid. Natural Resources Canada rates it at 6.8 L/100 km in the city, 7.0 L/100 km on the highway and 6.9 L/100 km combined. Those numbers are the same on all four trims, so moving up the lineup never costs you anything at the pump.
With a 67 L fuel tank, the combined rating works out to close to 970 km of driving on a full tank. Your own results will depend on how and where you drive, but it gives you a good sense of how rarely you’ll need to stop for fuel.
The Preferred, Preferred with Trend Package and Luxury Hybrid trims seat seven, with a 60/40 split folding second-row bench. The top Ultimate Calligraphy Hybrid seats six, thanks to power-folding second-row captain’s chairs. On every trim, the third row folds flat when you need more space.
Front-seat occupants get 1,052 mm of legroom. Second-row legroom measures 1,055 mm on the Preferred trims and grows to 1,075 mm on the Luxury Hybrid and Ultimate Calligraphy Hybrid. The third row offers 761 mm of legroom and 958 mm of headroom, and both the second and third rows get their own climate vents.
The Santa Fe Hybrid gives you 413 L of cargo space behind the third row, which is enough for groceries or a few school bags with every seat in use. Fold the third row and space grows to 1,148 L. Fold both rear rows and you get 2,267 L behind the front seats.
Every trim includes storage under the cargo floor, a cargo-area 12-volt outlet and a proximity-activated smart liftgate. Walk up to the back with the key in your pocket and the liftgate opens on its own, which comes in handy when your arms are full.
The 2027 Santa Fe Hybrid can tow up to 2,000 lbs (907 kg) with a braked trailer, or 1,650 lbs (748 kg) without trailer brakes. That covers a small utility trailer, and standard all-wheel drive helps put power down on wet or loose surfaces.
Every trim includes a 31.2 cm infotainment screen with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, HD Radio and SiriusXM. Bluelink connected services and over-the-air software updates are standard too, along with heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, dual-zone automatic climate control and push-button start.
As you move up the lineup, the tech list grows. The Preferred with Trend Package adds a 31.2 cm digital gauge cluster, a wireless charging pad and Hyundai Digital Key. The Luxury Hybrid adds navigation and a Surround View Monitor. The Ultimate Calligraphy Hybrid adds a 12-speaker Bose audio system and a head-up display.
Hyundai equips every 2027 Santa Fe Hybrid with nine airbags and a long list of driver-assistance features. Here are some of the highlights you get no matter which trim you choose:
Higher trims build on this foundation. The Luxury Hybrid adds Blind View Monitor and Highway Driving Assist, while the Ultimate Calligraphy Hybrid steps up to Highway Driving Assist II, Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist and Remote Smart Parking Assist.
