2026 Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid at Gettel Hyundai of Lakewood

For 2026, the Santa Fe Hybrid carries all the functionality and flair of the gas-powered SUV, but with superior efficiency. With rugged boxy styling, room for three rows of passengers, and high-tech features, the Santa Fe Hybrid makes a good argument for your consideration if you’re looking for versatility. Here are the trim levels available:

  • SE
  • SEL
  • Limited
  • Calligraphy

It goes head-to-head with electrified competitors, including the Honda CR-V Hybrid and the Toyota Highlander Hybrid, but the Santa Fe Hybrid distinguishes itself from the rest of the pack with its high-quality features and competitive power. It finds itself in the perfect spot between the smaller Tucson Hybrid and the larger Palisade, providing enough maneuverability without sacrificing space in the vehicle for Florida families.

Interior Features

Inside, the 2026 Santa Fe Hybrid blends modern styling with family-friendly practicality. The SE and SEL provide standard seating for seven, and the Limited can be configured with both six and seven-passenger options. The Calligraphy offers seating for six but adds a standard massaging driver’s seat.

Cargo space is generous: 14.6 cubic feet behind the third row, 40.5 cubic feet with the third row folded, and 79.6 cubic feet with both rear rows down. Storage solutions include a dual-level console, large door pockets, and hidden compartments under the load floor. Rear passengers get dedicated climate vents, optional sunshades, and up to six USB-C charging ports. An available panoramic sunroof brightens the cabin, while configurable ambient lighting boosts its premium feel.

Exterior Features

The 2026 Santa Fe Hybrid’s design is bold and upright, with squared-off proportions that give it a rugged SUV presence. Its wide H-shaped LED lighting signature front and rear make it instantly recognizable, while vertical grille slats and sharp body creases emphasize its adventurous look.

Standard 18-inch alloy wheels provide a balanced stance, with 20- and 21-inch wheels available on higher trims. Practical features include roof rails, skid-plate-style bumpers, and a hands-free power liftgate. The updated proportions make the Santa Fe Hybrid look equally at home in Lakewood Ranch or on a Florida beach road.

Available exterior colors include:

  • Serenity White Pearl
  • Abyss Black Pearl
  • Earthy Brass Matte
  • Rockwood Green Pearl
  • Hampton Gray
  • Cyber Gray Metallic

Power & Performance

The 2026 Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid provides smooth performance with that electric assist. The hybrid system includes a 1.6-liter turbocharged inline-4 engine combined with an electric motor to achieve a combined output of 231 horsepower. The Santa Fe Hybrid shifts the power through a 6-speed automatic transmission for a natural driving experience, and front-wheel drive is standard. All-wheel drive is available for the entire lineup.

Acceleration is strong for its class, allowing the Santa Fe Hybrid to merge onto highways or pass slow-moving traffic confidently. The Hybrid has a maximum tow rating of 2,000 pounds when properly equipped, which is plenty of power for a small trailer or the weekend-warrior gear. Fuel economy remains one of the standout features, making it an ideal choice for Florida commuters.
