The 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe Calligraphy is more luxurious than a Range Rover or G-Wagon.

Hoovie really has a keeper. April is one of the sweetest, most charismatic women out there. Love this channel
Facts! She definitely seems to be Wifey material: genuine, pleasant personality, all female in every pleasant way and seems do love to laugh with a down to earth vibe….dang; she seems like a keeper!!😍😍💯💯
What.??! You don’t feel the same way towards Mrs Wizard 🧙?? 😂
that's why got married got kids.
Loll. You see someone on yt and think you know the real them lmaooo. Simps
@Fony_turgeson you never know someone online truly, but if you're an adult with adequate social experience you're typically accurate when determining authenticity. I don't see any sign of inauthenticity with her. This doesn't make one a simp.
The dealership who loaned it to you did a very smart thing. Also, April just broke the internet with her “let’s check out the back seats” deployment.
my laptop glitched. exactly then. I think too many people were pausing/replaying. smh. great vid though
Bet the dealer puts this vid on loop in their showroom.
She's taking over daddy Dougs job of forcing oneself into the backseats 😂😂
Relax
I love what you guys are doing. Sometimes at the studio desk, sometimes out in the field. Sometimes cars, sometimes pop culture. A little different every time...Also April's humor is fun.
Yeah amp it up a little in the field and have that tension like between Bruce Willis and Cybil Shepard in MOONLIGHTING
I really like the new approach , and both of you reviewing the cars! Well done!
Ditto
So ugly!
Yup solid format
Have her CHEK the oil and under hood and stuff get her hands firty
I would enjoy seeing Aprils garage become a regular Saturday feature.
April has incredible presence in these videos. 🙌
April is an incredible presence.
Especially at 7:49 😂
True and not only for innuendos and backseat jokes. 😅
Her hips are as high as the hood ! So yea 😂
April garage is the greatest thing 🎉🎉🎉
I’m really liking it!
😒
The greatest smartest car channel in all of TH-cam
How big is her "Garage", will it fit the entire Hoovie Fleet?😮 Actually, I do like them together.. fun for all
I want to park my car in April’s garage
I like the way April reacts quickly and says sorry Sorry!
I love the addition of April Rose to Hoovie’s channel ❤❤❤
I have a 2023 Santa Fe Calligraphy and everyone that rides in it is in awe of how quiet it is and comfortable . It’s my first Hyundai and it’s been amazing
When we bought our first house in northwest suburban Cary, Illinois in 1981 our realtor drove an Oldsmobile Cutlass 4 door with THREE ON THE TREE!
April can crawl through any car she wants.
That's right. Plus crawling into the back seat is a good thing. Wake up Hoovie.
nice view for sure
April is mad funny 😅
She's definitely not boring
Not going to lie after I just watched jrs review of these and for the price of them I started looking into buying my wife one. Pretty cool and decently loaded for around 36k and up to mid 40s
That rear end is hideous in white
@@jewelz6647 I don’t like this color combo but I think it would be a good family mobile
@TKsGarage405 yeah probably idk about Korean reliability tho haven't read or been told good things
The turbo 4s from Hyundai/Kia have been sketchy at best. My wife has a palisade with the V6. May be worth checking out also
@@daywalker4029 I think most cars are junk these days but this is half priced junk. Good until off warranty lol
Look how much fun you can have in the back...
My Uncle bought the first Hyundai ever sold in Virginia for $3,600, and it went 260,000 miles before a truck totalled it, and my Uncle still walked away from the accident!
So when my ex gf asked me what she should replace her JEEP with?
I said, go look at the Santa Fe.
She didn't like anything about it.😢
And then she drove it.😂
So she bought it.🎉
Her Jeep needed gas every week.
Her SF, every 3 weeks.
She even took it back to the dealership, because she thought the gas gauge was broken.😂😂😂
She's on her 5th one since 2001, and has loved every one of them.❤🎉❤🎉❤
It sounds like it also did her laundry and made her breakfast
@@MrPensiveThinker
All but. lol!
I owned a first gen Santa Fe. It was a cool capable SUV. Hoovie obviously drank some koolaid.
@@RedLP5000S
For $16,000 bucks you couldn't beat it.
Real 4 wheel drive. Not for off roading, but for getting to work. Philly can suck in the winter, and she's never missed a day of work.
So they only last 4 years? Sketchy quality.
I like the occasional new car reviews
April was one kick away from a backflip in the beginning 😂😂😂
This is the best car couple combo on TH-cam. I love this
that COLOR holy crap! i really like that rig. dash is nice, lots of tactile controls but still nice screens. seats look good, but that color is absolutely fantastic
If someone said "would you like a brown car" the answer should be "no way", but this one works great. No idea how they did that.
Great chemistry between you 2 love nuts ❤️❤️ it's great to watch as it's so genuine and not fake like most shows etc
April is SO excited!
.
Careless Whisper being your go to stereo test song is so much different than my Kickstart My Heart go to lol
You have found a new niche reviewing cars together!!! Great job
This is the greatest car of 2024 for sure 🔥
My favorite TH-cam channel!
Good video. Love the Saturday shows out of the studio. Y’all keep it up this channel is one of my favorites. With that being said Hyundai/Kia has had a lot of issues with engine failures. And I mean a lot. Had a friend had his engine replaced under warranty a few weeks back rod bearing failure. When they dropped off their Santa Fe at the dealership they drove around back there was pallets and I mean pallets of blown 4cyl engines that had to be replaced under thankfully warranty.
That engine issue has been going on for over a decade at this point. They faced a class action lawsuit because of it. Steer far away from any Kia/Hyundai product.
yeah loving the car reviews like this you two. That is a good way to take the channel A&T. desk stuff and these here and there! good stuff! spot on on this vehicle analysis too :)
Yes! Now we're talking! The female perspective is interesting and April is great out of the studio... Keep this kind of thing coming... 😊👍
My wife and I picked up a White Calligraphy last month and regret nothing. It is so comfortable, drives amazing and we are already planning bigger road trips than before.
We have a Pallisade Calligraphy and its awesome
Just got our Calligraphy Santa Fe a few days ago in the same color but with black interior due to 3 kids under 11 lol. It's a great car and it actually gets some turned heads while out driving as there have barely been any delivered in our area in Ontario Canada.
This is your guys' best show yet. You've found the formula
JR and you guys reviewing the same car in the same week? Good to see Hyundai putting their marketing dollars to good use.
Exactly my thoughts. These must not be selling well so they are shoving money at TH-camrs to try and fix it.
Um, if this were an ad, they would have to disclose that fact.
@@ShaunTate Whahahaha, ........ IF .............
@@berryrijnbeek5938 Yes. Whahahaha... if... what part is confusing you?
Atleast Hoovie didn’t pretend that “his sister was shopping for a car”.
Your video pushed my wife over the top on purchasing that exact vehicle. We just got home from the dealer with it. FYI she traded in a KIA EV6 because we feel the writing is on the wall for electrics. That market is crashing fast.
This got me to rent one on Turo for my trip to Raleigh! It looks absolutely gorgeous and the color emphasizes the curves but still being boxy. LOVE IT!
So much thirst in these comments, get a grip y’alll!! lol.
love the review, KIA and Hyundai have stepped up over the years, it’s a pretty fancy mini van
This is one of your better videos for this channel. I'd try to find a way to make this a new car review channel on occasion. The banter here is better than the normal podcast format
April is absolutely right, that vehicle is a great car.
That's a nice black W126 Benz in the background.
Solid review. Especially since April being a "Non-TH-camr"! I beg to differ ha! Great review. My fiance' has a Black 22' HSE Sport with the Diesel--30mpg, gobs of torque and it is a very nice place to be. It is pushing 80k. So far it hasn't been terrible with the service part. Extended warranty has been paying off. The cliche' is accurate--she sells high end real estate lol! For ballers on a budget--this Hyundai is your ride!
I'll say it - for those of us who remember when Hyundai debuted in the late 80s, we will always associate them with cheap cars of questionable quality. But, the fact of the matter is that for the past decade or so they've upped their game significantly and now they actually make extremely high quality, darn near luxurious vehicles. Ask someone in their 20s and they'll look at you like you're nuts if you claim Hyundai equals garbage.
As a 15 year Hyundai loyal family with the oldest in the fleet rolling 200k miles and just received a new engine under warranty, their price/features is unbeatable, however their service department often misses the mark when it comes to basic maintenance and offering a good customer experience. Would definitely buy over the Rover though!
Its confirmed...April is a big hit. Congrats!
Glad I watched @WatchJRGo's video on this Hyundai yesterday, otherwise I wouldn't know how that side handle worked 🤓 Also, that "reflective" bar across the front is also a light (learned this from JR's video, too 😉).
Hoovie did say it was a light bar.
@@garys9694 April said it, and Tyler "corrected" her. Either way, we saw it in action, along with the proper way to use that side handle, on JR's video.
No need to spend on the Calligraphy. The 2nd or 3rd trim level up from the base model is where it's at with the Hyundai/Kias as far as best bang for the buck. You get most of the goodies for a much lower price. No one needs stuff like the remote control of the car.
The handle behind the rear door up the top on the side is for reaching the roof racks, and its lockable inside the door, yours was locked when you tried to use it. When you open the rear door you will see near the top a little key hole.
I agree with Hoovie, Hyundai certainly did hit a home run with this iteration of the Sante Fe! Almost(only almost) tempts me to trade in my Sonata for one. BUT, we don't NEED an SUV, even one as cool as this Santa Fe! Plus, the Sonata has ALMOST the same level of high tech gadgetry(even tho it IS 4 years old now...lol)..
I'm not a fan of Hyundai but I like this Santa Fe. Great job bringing this vehicle to another level.
The most funny stuff ever when tyler walks the santa fe like it was good doggie 😂😅😂😅
Also more content like this, you guys have great chemistry in the car!!
Tyler and April make a great duo. Great video guys. I really like the Palisade, and the price is on point.
Apparently we all watched JR's video except April and Hoovie.. The handle on the side has to be unlocked from the side, in the door jam before it will push inward to expose the opening. These do look really nice though.
Who is JR?
Another you tube channel called watch Jr go.he's a friend of hoovies
@@stefanfalldorf6573 WatchJRGo another TH-camr from the Wichita Kansas area.
@@stefanfalldorf6573 WatchJRGo, another Kansas car youtuber whose part of Hoovie's circle
@@stefanfalldorf6573 www.youtube.com/@WatchJRGo Another you tuber from the same area as Hoovie is. Great channel too, he should have way more subscribers than he does, always putting out content almost every day with good variety, mostly car related stuff.
What is going on in Kanas? First JR and now Hoovie gushing over The Santa Fe. Hyundai spreading the ad buys around the Kanas TH-camrs
If two TH-camrs say something positive about a vehicle in the same week, it must be an ad! 😅
Ha! You guys are spot on. I have two realtor neighbors and one drives an Escalade and the other drives a Mercedes GLS.
Great review you two and great job Hyundai on this car
Thats a much cooler color than the one JR had.
I still think they got inspiration for the back from the Geo Metro.
ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
I'd take a Geo Metro in a heartbeat over this pile.😏
@@thatfordguy2268 pointiac aztek has more angles than this!
Did April just floored a non broken in engine?
Have to give Kia/Hyundai props. They've come so far and now they make some of the best cars in both the EV and ICE categories. But anyone who is buying a Cybertruck, Range Rover, G wagon are doing it for the image, not the quality of the auto.
For real. Hyundai is the best manufacturer right now. I have a fleet of cars but the one hyundai we have is my favorite to drive
I worked as a Kia/Used Salesperson over a decade ago. The Sportage I sold to myself, due to the over 12 month wait time...
It lives in my area again, over 120,000miles for the less developed countries... no issues.
While I had it...Landcruiser had a new engine, Audi had 4 gearboxes...
They're good cars...they lack character...but you don't want a characterful vehicle to discover it's personality in the middle of nowhere, loaded up...
Kia has the 7 year unlimited warranty here...I think Hyundai have matched it now. But it's all down to styling...and the Sportage has a full size Alloy spare still...which is a BIG deal if you're on a trip with a lot of gear...
Completely false. They make the worst vehicles on the market. Faced a class action lawsuit for over a decades worth of knowingly building failed engines.
April gun noises! The best!
April is breathtakingly beautiful, very knowledgeable, bubbly and fun!!
The Hyundai is actually very nice and seems well put together!
The only things I’d be missing is AWD and a more potent engine!
Best wishes ❤
Almost 300 ps? What do you need more for? Worse gas mileage?
you can spec it with AWD but no other engine options
@@JohnDoe-zr6bk Just my personal preference. I actually drive a Range Rover and 2-3 other well motorized cars, and simply prefer larger, stronger, less stressed engines.
Best wishes
@@ertgb_ Oh…ok!
Guess I slightly misunderstood what Hoovie said. I thought he mentioned that model/version is only available with front wheel drive and that engine.
Cheers
When April thinks of secret things to hide...
"Fire Crackers?!"
She's a Keeper Hoovie !
I think you guys are finally finding your groove. This is good content April and Tyler.
Hyundai killed it with this car! Absolutely in love with it!
It’s more minivan than SUV. It seems like a lot of car for the money, but I wouldn’t want to own it. If you could get a good deal on a lease with a service contract, it might be worthwhile.
My wife drives a Tucson Hybrid and we love it. A great car.
The rear hatch will open automatically if you have the key fob on you and the car is unlocked, also the little grab handles on the exterior have a little lock on the inside of the second row door jamb.
I just saw one of these for the first time in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia it’s really a beautiful car and wow that’s a great price for it too!
I'm still driving/enjoying my 2nd Generation Hyundai Santa Fe❤
this is a gorgeous car, and you and april saturday is the best!, this car is too big for us in the UK, but wouldn't mind a slimmed down version though
Great show guys. Keep up the good work.
now that is an upgrade Hoovie ! Not talking about any vehicles. Hoovie /Wizard for President 2024
My wife has a 2020 Santa Fe as her company car. Pretty much a base model, but an acceptable transportation appliance. It's okay, and we can't complain cuz it's free. But this new Santa Fe is a huge improvement! I actually like it!
I was in the market for a new car last October, saw pictures of the 2024..... and bought a 2023 Santa Fe Calligraphy, Hate the square design, Love what we got.
Props to April she is looking mighty fit these days, not easy, takes a lot of dedication. You and Hoovie are magic. Great channel!
I am a huge Hyundai fan, but getting tired of them putting the 2.5t in EVERYTHING. This truck is beautiful, but so underpowered when compared to the SUVs in this class. Keep it up April you are doing great
Look around, V6 are gone. 2.5 turbo is for emissions standard. Maybe 5 -10 years ago it would be underpowered. This is all you get now from any car maker for a mid size suv
I love theese reviews! :)
Just coming from Doug DeMuro's profile of the new(ish) Range Rover Sport Autobiography, I'd say this Santa Fe is clearly the better move if you don't have money to burn - initially or over the course of ownership. (Also, April digging all the hidden compartments...let's just say I love her thinking, and you're one lucky guy. )
Yes. April's Garage. More of these
The thing is, nowadays luxury car makers are lowering their quality so much, that a good quality Hyundai seems like a luxury car.
Even if they were reviewing a Yugo, there would be just as much love in there lol
I think the new Hyundais and Kia’s are much better now than they were before. My cousin has a 4th generation Hyundai Santa Fe, and her husband has a Hyundai Santa Cruz. I think they are a 2021 or a 2022 model year, both are very nice. This new generation 2024 Santa Fe looks very expensive and luxurious.
Completely loving this channel. Was a bit sceptical at first but I’m in boots and all.
I love how these look, even the controversial rear lights. One of these on CPO would be pretty compelling.
April made that suv look good. Even more reason we need 1440p+ uploads from you Hoovie!
Car Confections own one, had already a new dct and have now problems with the 2nd dct. But all brands have problems with their dcts. So take one without dct.
LMAO April kills me! She is going to hide fireworks in the center console.
This type of gear selector was first used in BMW i3 in. 2013. Then VW ID3, maybe in more cars. It kind of makes sense.
And the signs are most probably not on GPS, the car just reads the signs.
Love the nerdy intro April!
I grew up in Calabasas California where status is king and as a master mechanic I have worked on a lot of very expensive cars that are truly just $ pits. Currently I call San Luis Obispo home and our sleepy little college town got a Porsche dealership and Tesla dealer along with multiple Sprinter conversion shops. Status status and more status symbols. I’m guilty myself with our 2 cars 2017 Mazda 3 (Baller) pimped out and a 2009 Porsche 997.2
I did not buy many cars because of stiff non bolstered seats! Good to hear seats are great!
Nice car review :) That new Santa Fe looks pretty sweet.
I wouldn't call the first santa fe terrible... well, it has a unique ugly-ish look to it but compared to it's competition back then, it wasn't bad at all. Also it came with a 2.7 V6 which drinks too much gas for it's size but the fact is that 2.7 V6 (and the same generation 2.0) is honda reliable. (I owned a 2002 Elantra with the 2.0, a tucson with the 2.0 and a tucson 4x4 with the V6... Very reliable cars.
Santa Fe should be 2024 car of the year. It’s that good. There is t another vehicle on the market where you get so much for the price. Best value hands down and it’s just a beautiful vehicle. Nice to see some Genesis styling move down to Hyundai. Also the self driving in the Santa Fe is just as good as any other model.
The taillights are reminiscent of the Suzuki Swift from the 90s.
Great looking car. I'd love to see you two do more new car reviews.
April’s shoe game rivals the best of C6 corvette owners.
All jokes aside, I couldn’t be happier for both of these two.
What a great couple!
Wow... They got to April and Tyler too..... Jesus...first WatchRJGo.....now these guys....
They got to them? 😂
Great review, as usual
