Hyundai Santa Fe gets a facelift for 2010

The biggest change to the 2010 Hyundai Santa Fe is the new 2.2 litre turbo diesel engine that produces 197bhp, while the off-roader also gets minor exterior and interior tweaks to keep the model fresh for the 2010 model year.

The Santa Fe range has also been simplified, with just two trim levels available in the UK, the basic Style and the top-line Premium levels. The Style level has 17-inch alloy wheels, reverse sensors, electronic stability control, a new CD/RDS radio with an AUX/USB connection and full iPod control as well as carbon black interior trim, which replaces the wood of the outgoing model, as standard.

The Premium trim level meanwhile has 18-inch alloy wheels, dual climate control, heated leather seats with electric adjustment for the driver and automated lights and wipers in addition to the equipment already featured in the Style model.
