Call Kelly Shirley About This Great Vehicle at 954-607-0260!

1 OWNER - ONLY 5K MILES - FLORIDA DRIVEN 2013 HYUNDAI SANTA FE SPORT SUV - 5 PASSENGER - POWER OPTIONS PACKAGE - AIR CONDITIONING - CRUISE CONTROL - MUCH MORE!

This SUV is nicely packaged with features including steering wheel controls for the Bluetooth hands free calling, driver information system, cruise control and audio system, AM FM stereo CD player, power windows, locks and mirrors, seat back storage pockets, 12 volt power outlets, air bag safety, rear door child safety locks, durable protective rear cargo area mat and so much more!

This Santa Fe is a Florida driven, Florida maintained vehicle and has never been exposed to the harsh winters, roads, mountains, or overall harsh conditions of up north driving.

Vehicle Overview

Hyundai redesigned the Santa Fe for 2013, splitting its SUV into two variants with separate sizes and styling: this is the two-row, four-cylinder Santa Fe Sport.

Santa Fe Sport
This Santa Fe Sport gets a turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder. It slots between the smaller Hyundai Tucson and the larger Santa Fe. Competitors include the Ford Edge and Nissan Murano.

Exterior
The latest car to receive Hyundai's "fluidic sculpture" design, the Santa Fe has a large, vertical grille that looks a bit like the one on a Subaru Tribeca. The tail recalls those on many large SUVs, from the Mazda CX-9 to the 2013 Nissan Pathfinder. Dual tailpipes sit within bumper-integrated openings. The Santa Fe and Santa Fe Sport share the same platform, but the Sport is about as long as a Ford Edge, and the Santa Fe is 8.5 inches longer. It's about 2 inches longer than the Pilot and 4 inches shorter than the Explorer.

Chrome trim along the grille and door handles is standard, as are body-colored mirrors. Nineteen-inch wheels


Interior
Total passenger volume in the new Santa Fe is 146.6 cubic feet, which is equivalent to the Highlander but falls short of the Pilot and Explorer by more than 7 cubic feet. The adjustable second row includes 40/20/40-split folding sections with releases in the cargo area.

Stain-resistant cloth upholstery is standard. Hyundai says the Santa Fe offers another 1.9 inches of second-row legroom and 5.9 inches of extra cargo room versus its Sport sibling.


Safety
Seven airbags, antilock brakes and an electronic stability system are standard.

Hyundai/Kia's Prius rival to arrive by 2017

Fri, 31 Oct 2014

The Toyota Prius is the undisputed king of the hybrid market, but Hyundai and Kia are hoping to challenge its reign in the coming years with their own dedicated model. However, in all likelihood this is the same technology being shared between them. "We will take the lead in the future by raising the competitiveness of our environment-friendly cars like hybrid-only cars, plug-in hybrid cars and fuel cell hydrogen cars," Hyundai Motor CEO Kim Choong-ho said to Reuters, during the launch of another vehicle in South Korea.
While Kim didn't say when the model would be ready, Autocar in Europe spoke to people at Kia, who said that the company's own hybrid was two years away and codenamed the DE. The initial vehicle is reportedly a five-door hatchback that's about 169-inches long, with more conventional styling than the Prius. Its powertrain is reportedly based around a 1.6-liter engine with electric assist. A plug-in version might follow later, and other bodystyles on the platform are possible. A recently spotted test mule might show the current state of development on the project (pictured above).
According to Reuters, the decision for the new vehicle comes in order to meet tighter emissions in some markets. However, it seems like a challenging move for the US market. Hyundai already sells its Tucson fuel cell in limited quantities and the Sonata hybrid, and Kia has the Optima hybrid and Soul EV. Industry analysts are also predicting that hybrids might have a hard time versus internal combustion engines in the coming years. In addition, Toyota is rumored to get fuel economy close to 60 miles per gallon for some versions of the next Prius. All of these factors make selling the models here a potentially difficult undertaking.

2013 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport

Thu, 18 Apr 2013

The Crossover For The Kardashians Of 1895
My wife and I are holdouts among our friends and family in the offspring department. Our heir-free lifestyle, however, affords us the opportunity to travel this great land, and road trips are our favorite. So while I'm unqualified to remark on how well the new 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport will swallow an infant son and stroller, I can pass judgment on this two-row crossover's talents for carrying people and cargo over great distances.
The lady and I recently drove a new 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport to one of this country's national treasures: the Biltmore Estate in Asheville, North Carolina. The Biltmore was built between 1889 and 1895 by George Vanderbuilt, grandson of Cornelius Vanderbuilt who was one of this country's earliest captains of industry. Despite the Biltmore being the largest privately owned home in the United States, which it remains to this day with a footprint of 178,926 square feet, George and his wife, Edith, only ever had one child. A family of two parents plus one child would have made the Vanderbuilts exactly the type of people Hyundai hopes to attract with this two-row Santa Fe Sport - George's eldest brother, Cornelius II, had seven children and would've had better luck fitting his brood in the larger three-row Santa Fe (sans the "Sport" suffix).

2014 Hyundai Veloster Re:Flex brings the bling

Fri, 07 Feb 2014

Despite launching in late 2011, Hyundai has managed to keep its funky Veloster hatchback relatively fresh in our minds, with the Turbo and R-Spec, several special edition models and even a cloth-roofed concept. Here at the 2014 Chicago Auto Show, we're seeing the next iteration of Veloster creativity, the limited-edition Re:Flex.
The Veloster Re:Flex isn't a hugely different car from the standard hatchback, and the theme of this car is chrome, chrome, chrome. Hyundai has added 18-inch chrome-finished wheels, chrome door handles and chrome hood accents (yep). There's also the usual Re:Flex badging on the actual hatch itself. Inside, the Re:Flex gets full leather seating, in either black or red, and the car can be purchased in a new Ice Pearl color, in addition to Century White, Vitamin C (orange), Ultra Black and Boston Red.
Hyundai is only offering the Re:Flex edition on the base Veloster, powered by a naturally aspirated 1.6-liter inline four-cylinder engine. All Re:Flex models are fitted with the company's six-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission (sorry, manual fans).
