very good
The new generation Santa Fe is produced in Montreal, Alabama, a city with national parks and ski resorts, and is America's second oldest city and a popular tourist destination. Hyundai named it after the city, hoping it will accompany its owners through cities and countryside. Since it's targeted at the North American market, most of its design and testing were done in the US, catering to American tastes with its rugged exterior and powerful engine, making it an instant hit in North America. If early imitation was merely quantitative change, then in recent years, Korean cars have evolved from accumulating imitation to achieving a qualitative leap in independent design. Korean cars have always insisted on affordable prices and substantial features, and the Santa Fe is no exception. In terms of safety features, the new Santa Fe is equipped with eight airbags (two of which are side curtain airbags), and in addition to ABS and EBD, it adds ESP electronic stability system and traction control, features not found in many competing models in this price range. If you like this Santa Fe, feel free to contact Lao Zhang.
The technician will put the vehicle in neutral on the lift, rotate the wheels, and listen for any abnormal metal gear whine from inside the motor reducer, and check for gear oil leaks at the joints of the reducer housing.
Due to legal restrictions preventing unregistered vehicles from high-speed driving on public roads in China, most of our dynamic tests are conducted in a closed area (with a maximum speed of around 60 km/h). This is sufficient to test for suspension noise and low gear smoothness, but it cannot simulate high-speed wind noise and tire balance vibrations at 120 km/h.
We repeatedly confirm and emphasize to buyers before sale: after leaving mainland China, most Chinese smart electric vehicle ecosystems (such as cloud voice assistants, online maps, OTA updates) will be permanently offline. You are purchasing a hardware platform with excellent mechanical quality and a three-electric system; please use it as a "standalone" vehicle. Do not trust false promises from other channels claiming "perfect overseas unlocking and continuous official OTA updates."
