Hyundai Announces the Updated 2026 Santa Fe for Australia
Hyundai has revealed the updated 2026 Santa Fe range, confirming minor specification changes and a small price adjustment across the board. While this refreshed model won’t arrive in showrooms until later, you can already start planning for Hyundai’s next-generation family SUV — and in the meantime, shop the current Santa Fe range at Tynan Hyundai Kirrawee.
What’s New in the 2026 Santa Fe?
The most noticeable change is the fitment of 18-inch alloy wheels on the entry-level Santa Fe, replacing the previous 20-inch design. Hyundai has also created a clearer styling split between hybrid and petrol versions:
- Santa Fe Hybrid – flat-faced five-spoke alloys
- Santa Fe 2.5T petrol – detailed split-spoke design
Every 2026 Santa Fe will also gain Hyundai’s Digital Key 2 entry system, which allows secure unlocking and engine start directly from a paired smartphone.
Engine Choices
The line-up continues with two proven powertrains:
- 1.6-litre turbo-petrol hybrid (172kW, 367Nm, 5.6L/100km)
- 2.5-litre turbo-petrol (206kW, 422Nm, 9.3L/100km)
Front-wheel drive is available on the entry model, while all-wheel drive is standard on higher trims.
Grades and Features
The 2026 range will again be offered in three familiar trims:
- Santa Fe (Base) – Seven seats, heated front seats, 12.3-inch touchscreen, cloth trim, and advanced safety features.
- Santa Fe Elite – Adds 20-inch alloys, leather-appointed trim, 12-speaker Bose audio, satellite navigation, and Smart Parking Assist.
- Santa Fe Calligraphy – The flagship with Nappa leather, dual sunroofs, ventilated seats, a head-up display, and an available six-seat captain’s chair layout.

The 2026 Hyundai Santa Fe has been announced, but it’s not yet available in Australia. That means now is the perfect time to explore the current Santa Fe range at Tynan Hyundai Kirrawee, which already delivers premium features, seven-seat flexibility, and award-winning safety.
