Driver Insights
Independent testing presents the Santa Fe Hybrid Calligraphy as a comfort-focused family SUV rather than a performance or off-road model. Its cabin packaging, storage, equipment and low-speed hybrid assistance are the main strengths.
Independent international testing portrays the 2026 Sportage Hybrid as a comfortable, reasonably quick and practical compact SUV. Its petrol-electric powertrain, conventional automatic gearbox and generous interior space are recurring positives.
