2025 Santa Fe vs 2025 CX-70 in Brooklyn, NY

2025 Santa Fe vs 2025 CX-70
When selecting an SUV, many brands can compete to get your attention. At Plaza Hyundai, we’ll be taking a look at two vehicles in the SUV category that stand out: the 2025 Santa Fe and the 2025 CX-70.
Both are mid-size vehicles that feature a stylish, reliable, and efficient drive. However, if you want something to last and that gives you options to heighten your driving experience, you’ll be hopping into a Santa Fe by the end of this.
Interior Comparison
You and your passengers will appreciate the spacing and comfort the Santa Fe offers for trips around Brooklyn and beyond. The Santa Fe welcomes passengers with seven-seat availability, convenient high-power USB charge ports, and proximity key entry with a push-button start available. Convenience and comfort couldn’t get better than the Santa Fe.
The CX-70 has a quality exterior, but it falls behind when you need more from your interior. With only two rows and a five-seat capacity, with a cargo space 4.3 cubic feet smaller, the CX-70 still needs some growing before it can match the Santa Fe.
