New LWB, Three-Row 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe Priced from $28,350* in the U.S.

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 02, 2013 |

With the new generation of the Santa Fe, Hyundai decided to split the range into two models, the Santa Fe Sport with seating for five passengers and the option of either a 190hp 2.4-liter inline-four or a 264hp 2.0-liter turbo, and the longer wheelbase model with seating for six or seven, and a 290hp V6 engine.The five-seat 2013 Santa Fe went on sale last year with prices starting from $24,450 (plus an $825 delivery and handling fee), and now Hyundai has announced pricing for the LWB version that starts at $28,350 for the FWD GLS and tops out at $33,100 for the AWD Limited, excluding a delivery charge (*) of $845.
Buyers can choose between two second row-seating configurations; a traditional bench with 40/20/40 split-folding seatback on the GLS and individual second row captain’s chairs on the Limited.
Compared to the Santa Fe Sport, the Santa Fe's wheelbase is 3.9-inches longer and the overall length has been extended by 8.5-inches. As a result, second-row legroom is increased by 1.9 inches and passenger volume by 38.6 cubic feet over the Sport.
The 290hp 3.3-liter V6 engine is linked to a six-speed automatic transmission driving either the front- or all-four wheels. The Santa Fe is tow rated up to 5,000 pounds (2,268 kg).
Full pricing and equipment details follow below.
