More about the Hyundai Santa Fe
Cutting-edge technology is at the heart of the Santa Fe, featuring a sweeping panoramic display that merges two 12.3-inch screens into a modern digital cluster, fully compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The Hyundai Digital Key 2 adds even more convenience, enabling access via smartphone or simply on approach. Safety is equally prioritised, with ten airbags now included to provide enhanced protection for passengers across all three rows.
What's my Towing Capacity?
The new Hyundai Santa Fe supports up to 2,000kg maximum towing capacity, making it ideal for trailers and caravans for the family alike. To check your Santa Fe’s exact towing capacity, please refer to the vehicle’s VIN plate, which is usually located in one of the door frames.
Which Towbar is best for my Santa Fe?
The fixed flange towbar is one of the most traditional and versatile towbar types, where the towball is bolted to a flat metal plate permanently attached to the vehicle. This design makes it compatible with a wide range of towing accessories, such as bumper protectors and bolt-on cycle carriers, which can be mounted between the towball and faceplate. However, its bulkier profile is more visible than other designs and can sometimes interfere with parking sensors, making it less discreet compared to swan neck alternatives.
The fixed swan neck towbar is a permanently mounted option that combines the towball and neck into a single, streamlined piece. Its slim design gives a modern, discreet appearance and reduces the chances of triggering parking sensors compared to bulkier alternatives. The towball is also compatible with ALKO stabilisers without the need for a separate towball, as with the flange.
The detachable variant of the swan neck towbar delivers the same sleek look but with the convenience of being removable when it’s not needed. The neck locks firmly into place for safe towing and can be quickly detached afterwards to avoid potential interference with parking sensors.
Will it need a bumper cut?
The towbars for the new Hyundai Santa Fe do not require a bumper cut, allowing for towbar fitment with minimum impact on the vehicle's appearance.
