If you don’t need the bulkiness and expense of driving an SUV, but you want to have a comparable level of comfort and versatility, Hyundai’s crossover lineup is where you should look first.
Read this overview of Hyundai’s three crossovers to see which one best matches your wants and needs.
Tucson
With bold style and heaps of standard equipment, the Hyundai Tucson crossover is one of the most talked-about compact crossovers in the segment. Drivers can expect 165 horsepower from the standard 2.0-liter engine, and up to 176 horsepower from the optional 2.4-liter engine. Other features that distinguish the Hyundai Tucson are its confident handling, tight turning radius, and smooth six-speed automatic transmission.
Santa Fe Sport
For more space and power than a Hyundai Tucson, check out the Santa Fe Sport, a five-passenger crossover that was completely redesigned to give it more expressive style, more features, and improvements in performance and fuel-efficiency. Standard on the Hyundai Santa Fe Sport is a feature that lets you choose between three modes—Normal, Comfort, and Sport—for a customized driving experience. Under the hood you can have either a 190-horsepower inline-four that achieves 29 mpg on the highway or a 264-horsepower turbocharged inline-four that earns 27 mpg on the highway.
Veracruz
The largest crossover that Hyundai currently makes is the seven-passenger Hyundai Veracruz. It’s quiet, luxurious, and stylish. A 260-horsepower V6 and rear climate controls are standard, while luxurious options include a power liftgate, a 314-watt stereo by Infinity, and a Proximity Key that allows you to lock or unlock your car without taking your key out of your pocket.

Find out more about the new Hyundai Santa Fe to see why it’s the best compact crossover of Texas.
Fuel Efficiency
The 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport boasts best-in-class fuel economy rated at 33 mpg on the highway with the 190-horsepower 2.4-liter engine, and 31 mpg on the highway with the optional 264-horsepower turbocharged 2.0-liter. The three-row Hyundai Santa Fe, on the other hand, comes with a 290-horsepower V6 to help carry the extra weight.
Reliability
The Hyundai Santa Fe has a fantastic reputation for reliability and quality. If you maintain a Hyundai Santa Fe well, you can drive it for an exceptionally long time without having to worry about it breaking down on you. To back up this high-quality crossover, Hyundai offers a 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty.
Functionality
In the Hyundai Santa Fe you have the option of carrying up to seven passengers in impressive comfort. But if you’d rather haul more stuff than people, you can simply fold the rear seats of the Hyundai Santa Fe and open up to 80 cubic feet of cargo space.
Safety
If you are ever in an accident, you can expect the Hyundai Santa Fe to protect you and your family with its award-winning safety features. In the meantime, you’ll have exceptional peace of mind knowing that you’re protected in the event that anything should happen.
