2026 Hyundai Santa Fe in Lebanon, TN
Discover the 2026 Hyundai Santa Fe at Wilson County Hyundai
For years, the Hyundai Santa Fe has been a real family SUV, but the 2026 Santa Fe’s complete redesign makes the already well-regarded SUV even better. With a bold new exterior design, more space, and more technology, the new Santa Fe has something for everyone. For drivers in Lebanon, it is built to have the right amount of comfort for daily trips down I-40 or a weekend getaway to Old Hickory Lake. The 2026 Hyundai Santa Fe is available in:
- SE
- SEL
- XRT
- Limited
- Calligraphy
Stacked against rivals like the Honda Passport, Toyota Highlander, and Kia Sorento, the Santa Fe makes a strong case for itself with its upright design, roomy third row, and excellent list of features at a competitive price.
Interior Features
The interior of the 2026 Santa Fe prioritizes comfort and functionality. Now classified as a three-row SUV, the Santa Fe has room for up to seven occupants. Second-row seating can be configured as a full bench or as captain’s chairs, and the third row fulfills its purpose with enough room for kids or small adults, thanks to its 30 inches of legroom.
The cabin has quality materials that give it a premium feel, even with the entry trim. Cloth upholstery is standard, while higher trims benefit from leather seating, quilt stitching, and heated and ventilated front seats. The driver’s seat can be enjoyed with available power adjustments with memory, and dual-zone or tri-zone climate control ensures everyone’s ride is comfortable.
Cargo capacity in the Santa Fe is impressive as well. With the second row up in place, you will have 40.5 cubic feet of cargo space; with the second and third rows folded, the space expands to 79.6 cubic feet. The tailgate opening is very wide, making it easy to load strollers, camping gear, or a large Costco grocery run.
Exterior Features
The 2026 Santa Fe is more rugged and adventurous than ever. Its upright stance, squared-off shape, and expressive H-shaped LED headlights and taillights give it a presence that demands attention. The Hyundai designers embraced a boxier shape, which looks tough and maximizes space inside.
The wheels on the Santa Fe come as small as 18 inches on the lower trims and up to 21-inch alloys on the higher trims, and roof rails are standard for carrying bikes, kayaks, or whatever else you need to carry with you. With this new design, it is just as at home parked downtown or at the trailhead in the Smokies.
The available exterior colors include:
- Phantom Black
- Serenity White
- Hampton Gray
- Terracotta Orange
- Atlantis Blue
- Earthy Brass Matte

The 2026 Hyundai Santa Fe gives buyers a strong gas powertrain:
