2027 Hyundai SANTA FE Hybrid Preferred in Brantford, Ontario
The 2027 Hyundai SANTA FE Hybrid Preferred is built for drivers who need genuine family-SUV
versatility but want to reduce fuel consumption without changing the way they travel. With three rows

interior in person and arrange a test drive. Our team can walk you through its hybrid system, technology
and family-friendly features and help you decide whether the SANTA FE Hybrid is the right SUV for your
driving needs.
Hybrid Efficiency Without Plugging In
For many drivers, the appeal of a conventional hybrid is simple: improved efficiency without having to
change established driving habits. The 2027 SANTA FE Hybrid uses a Smartstream 1.6-litre turbocharged
four-cylinder hybrid powertrain paired with a six-speed automatic transmission. Combined output
reaches up to 231 horsepower.
Because the hybrid battery charges as you drive, there is no need to plug the SANTA FE Hybrid into a
charger. The gasoline engine and electric motor work together automatically, allowing the vehicle to use
electric assistance when appropriate while maintaining the flexibility drivers expect from a gasoline-
powered SUV.
That makes the SANTA FE Hybrid especially appealing to families who regularly travel beyond Brantford.
Whether the day involves school runs and errands or a highway trip across Southern Ontario, drivers can
benefit from hybrid efficiency without planning their schedule around charging stops.
Standard HTRAC All-Wheel Drive
Ontario driving conditions can change quickly, making all-wheel drive an important feature for many
SUV shoppers. The 2027 SANTA FE Hybrid Preferred comes with Hyundai's HTRAC all-wheel-drive
system, which can distribute power between the front and rear wheels as conditions require.
Multi-terrain control modes provide additional flexibility when roads become more challenging.
Combined with the SANTA FE's SUV proportions and confident driving position, the system helps make
the vehicle a practical year-round choice for Brantford families.
The hybrid system is not focused solely on saving fuel. Electric assistance also contributes to smooth
power delivery, particularly during everyday acceleration, while the six-speed automatic provides a
familiar driving feel for motorists moving into their first hybrid.
Three Rows and Seating for Seven
The SANTA FE Hybrid Preferred comes standard with seven-passenger seating, giving families the
flexibility of a third row without stepping into a much larger SUV. That extra seating can be invaluable
for carpools, visiting relatives, or simply keeping siblings from negotiating the same square metre of rear
seat.
When passenger capacity is not the priority, the cabin can be reconfigured for cargo. Standard power-
folding second-row seats and a manual fold-flat third row make it easier to create additional carrying
space for luggage, sports gear, home-improvement supplies and other bulky items.
Hyundai has also incorporated practical details throughout the SANTA FE. Its wide, upright shape helps
maximize usable interior room, while the centre console can be accessed from both the front and rear, a
small detail that becomes surprisingly useful in a busy family vehicle.
Technology for the Whole Family
The 2027 SANTA FE brings a modern digital experience to the cabin. A standard 12.3-inch infotainment
touchscreen provides a large, clear interface for entertainment and vehicle functions, while wireless
Apple CarPlay and Android Auto make smartphone integration straightforward.
Hyundai Bluelink connected services add useful remote functions, including remote vehicle start with
climate control, remote locking and unlocking, vehicle diagnostics and other features available through a
compatible smartphone.
Safety and driver-assistance technology is equally important in a three-row family SUV. Hyundai
SmartSense technologies are designed to help drivers stay aware of surrounding vehicles and potential
hazards, adding support during commuting, highway travel and busy family schedules.
A Distinctive Take on the Family SUV
The SANTA FE's exterior design is deliberately different. Its upright profile, broad stance and geometric
details give it a rugged appearance, while standard 18-inch alloy wheels complement the Preferred trim
without sacrificing the practical priorities of a family vehicle.
For drivers comparing conventional gasoline SUVs with hybrids, the SANTA FE Hybrid Preferred offers an
appealing middle ground. There is no charging routine to learn and no need to give up three-row
versatility, all-wheel drive or familiar long-distance capability.
