Carivo independent review & score
The 2022 Hyundai Santa Fe S. Carivo rates it 7.8/10 — middle of the pack. It does enough right to be a reasonable choice, but the scores don’t make a compelling case for picking it over class leaders.
Safety leads at 8.5/10. Crash-test results and standard driver-assistance coverage push it ahead of most suv rivals on occupant protection — a real differentiator for families. Performance (7.4/10) lags behind class leaders — not a dealbreaker, but a clear weak link.
In the mid-range suv market ($36,466–$42,452, 24 MPG, 5 passengers), it gives buyers what they need without forcing trade-offs. At 4 years old, this model predates meaningful updates to the Hyundai Santa Fe S lineup. Check how the current generation scores differently before committing to the older version.
