in recent years, the demand for replacement has been gradually increasing. data shows that the replacement ratio in the auto market has increased from 23% in 2016 to 51% in the first half of 2024. since it is a replacement, consumers' demand for models is certainly not limited to basic transportation, but they pay more attention to large space, comfort, safety and functionality. the use of vehicles is not limited to one person's commuting within the city, but to start a new life with the family.

as the auto market shows a relatively high-end trend, it has become a "touchstone" to test the strength of automakers. in the past, some automakers made cars in a "fast food" style in order to quickly cater to the market. the models made in this way not only had constant driving problems, but also lost the responsibility and original intention of making cars. a truly good car must be supported by the strong technical strength of the automaker and the test of the global market for many years, rather than just relying on the popularity and traffic of social platforms. this is the "pitfall avoidance" option when choosing a replacement car.

it is for this reason that the newly launched fifth-generation santa fe stands out among a number of "traffic" models at the ongoing chengdu auto show. santa fe has gone through five generations, with cumulative global sales exceeding 5.7 million units. backed by the world's top three strength, beijing hyundai introduced the domestically produced fifth-generation santa fe, which, as always, synchronizes core technologies, maintains global quality, and fully meets the car needs of replacement consumers.

the fifth-generation santa fe is available in two versions, the "explorer edition" and the "connoisseur edition", with a total of five models, with a price range of 195,800 to 268,800 yuan. it also specially launches the "qingye 10,000 yuan discount gift" and "qingye 10,000 yuan replacement gift", with the exclusive replacement price starting at 185,800 yuan (please contact your local authorized dealer for details).

although the word "revolution" is frequently used when new cars are released, it seems to lack "gold content". however, after a deep understanding of the various thoughtful details of the fifth-generation santa fe, you will find that the fifth-generation santa fe has met all the needs of consumers. the new car not only interprets the strength of beijing hyundai's transformation and upgrading, but is also expected to lead a new round of "revolution" in the medium and large suv market.

the first hard box of the joint venture

in terms of design, the automotive industry is very similar to the fashion industry. if there is a popular element, everyone will flock to it. for example, in the past year, a number of new cars have adopted a square box shape. however, although the square box shape looks very "hard" visually, it is not very friendly to wind resistance. even the mercedes-benz g cannot avoid high driving noise and high fuel consumption.

as the first "square box" model among the mainstream joint venture brands of the same level, the fifth-generation santa fe is not a "stitched freak" that follows the trend. the new car adopts hyundai's global one model square box shape, but the drag coefficient is only 0.3cd, which is comparable to the drag system of some performance coupes.

the square box shape of the fifth-generation santa fe is not just a retro shape, but also incorporates modern fashion and practicality. for example, the exterior combines the h element unique to the hyundai brand with the body lines, with the shortest front overhang in the same class and the longest rear overhang and body height, making the whole vehicle highly recognizable while also giving the "square box" a new charm.

the fifth-generation santa fe has put more thought into its exterior design. must there be a ladder to get on the roof? this design is not only cumbersome but also old-fashioned. the fifth-generation santa fe has a hidden climbing handle at the c-pillar, which can bear a maximum load of 200kg and has multiple drainage holes inside, which not only meets the needs of climbing to the top, but also does not increase wind resistance or block the view inside the car. and it can be locked with a key as needed to ensure safety. there are many other similar "masterstrokes" of the new car that are both fashionable and practical.

three rows of seats are comfortable to sit anywhere

when buying your first car, you usually do it for yourself, so it’s fine as long as you like it. but when you trade it in, you need to consider the whole family. the interior design of the fifth-generation santa fe is not only exquisite in materials and luxurious, but also refreshing in terms of user experience. for example, the newly launched dual 12.3-inch panoramic curved screens on the center console reconstruct the center console and instrument panel, which is more in line with the human-machine perspective. at the same time, it supports carlife and wireless carplay.

the new car's hud screen size is 2.6 inches, the imaging size is about 10 inches, the brightness can be adjusted in 20 levels, and the maximum brightness is 10,000cd/㎡ (nit), which is five times the maximum display brightness of the iphone 15 pro.

it is said that the car computer system of joint venture models is "lacking", but the fifth-generation santa fe can break this prejudice. the new car is equipped with ccnc (connected car navigation cockpit), which is a new generation of cockpit system specially improved for the chinese market. the architecture uses nvidia chips and can realize the wake-up and command of the driver and the co-driver. in addition, more than 30 small programs covering chat, car maintenance, life, etc. provide a more convenient and comfortable in-car experience.

the fifth-generation santa fe has a length, width and height of 4830mm/1900mm/1780mm, and a wheelbase of 2815mm, which not only ensures that the daily driving is not difficult due to the large size of the car, but also fully guarantees the three-row passenger space in the car. the new car offers 5-seat, 6-seat and 7-seat models, which are unique in its class.

at the same time, all three rows of seats have "unique skills". the main driver supports the most abundant 18-way electric adjustment in the same class, and the front row has one-touch zero gravity. the 7° relaxation mode of the second row seats brings the best sitting posture for the human body. the 14° backrest adjustment of the third row seats relieves back fatigue. the second row has 1075mm of legroom, and the third row has 978mm of headroom + 761mm of legroom, which is leading in the same class. in addition, the trunk volume reaches up to 2046l, and the maximum depth can reach 2.05m after the second and third rows are laid flat, which is a reflection of the size and level of the fifth-generation santa fe.

the fifth-generation santa fe has some black technology in some details, which makes people more impressed. for example, the digital key 2.0 used not only supports the traditional remote control function, but also supports three different methods: nfc, bluetooth, and uwb. it can also be used in extreme cases when the user's mobile phone is out of power and turned off. the new car is equipped with bose audio. not only does it have 12 speakers in the whole car, which is the highest in the same class, but it can also realize real-time update of the sound effects and sound sources of the audio system through the wireless upgrade (ota) function.

the new car is not only equipped with dual wireless charging stations with a 4.9° humanized tilt in the front row, but also uses a cooling fan to prevent the smartphone from heating up. the co-pilot storage box has a built-in uv sterilization function with a sterilization rate of up to 99.99%. the fifth-generation santa fe always allows users to feel its technical strength and charm without realizing it.

being strong naturally makes you tough

as a truly technically capable model, it never follows others to squeeze into a certain track, but opens up a new track on its own. the fifth-generation santa fe is just like this, opening up a new track of "high-end urban comfort + light outdoor soft play", which also reflects the "hardness" of beijing hyundai's technical strength.

compared with the adventure of deep gullies and unpaved roads, outdoor light off-road is more common for family travel. light off-road does not mean flat and boring roads, but comfortable and safe reunion time, which has higher requirements for vehicle technology.

the fifth-generation santa fe was born on hyundai's most advanced i-gmp platform, equipped with a third-generation 2.0t engine and an 8at transmission. it has a maximum power of 182kw, a maximum torque of 353n·m, a maximum speed of 210km/h, the highest in its class, and a wltc comprehensive fuel consumption of 8.05l/100km.

in terms of chassis, the new car is equipped with htrac full-time four-wheel drive system, covering 7 driving modes for more outdoor scenes (standard/economy/sports/personalized/snow/sand/mud). it is worth mentioning that the new car's shock absorber uses a high-performance sfd valve system for the first time, and a new frequency sensor is added inside, which can automatically open and close according to the different bump frequencies; the front and rear subframes use hydraulic bushings for the first time to improve user riding comfort.

although it is a fuel-powered vehicle, the fifth-generation santa fe is not inferior in terms of intelligent driving. the vehicle has 22 high-precision sensors, including 5 millimeter-wave radars, 12 ultrasonic radars, 4 360° cameras and 1 1.7-megapixel multi-function camera, which is comparable to the 30 adas intelligent driving assistance systems of new energy smart cars, and achieves full coverage of highways, urban areas, parking and other scenarios, defining a new standard for intelligent driving systems of fuel-powered mass-produced vehicles.

new cars can also achieve wireless upgrades of the entire vehicle's electronic control unit (f-ota). the product will continue to be optimized and improved throughout the vehicle's life cycle, and the controller firmware in the vehicle's power domain, chassis domain, body domain, intelligent driving domain, and cockpit domain can be upgraded. the traffic for the entire vehicle domain upgrade is free for five years.

what the fifth-generation santa fe has done is exactly what beijing hyundai has insisted on, with quality as the core of car manufacturing, and it is also the core of winning consumers. with the powerful technical support, the new models represented by the fifth-generation santa fe will drive beijing hyundai to regain the initiative in the new track, which will also become a new "model" for joint venture brands to break through.
