The All-New Hyundai Santa Fe Marks Hyundai Motor Malaysia’s First Launch

Hyundai Motor Malaysia has officially made its local debut with the launch of the 5th generation Hyundai Santa Fe, a bold and versatile SUV that signals a new chapter for the brand in Malaysia. Priced from RM225,000, the all-new Santa Fe comes in three variants — HEV Prime, HEV Prestige, and the top-spec 2.5T Calligraphy — and offers both hybrid and turbocharged AWD powertrains.

Built on a longer wheelbase with a wider tailgate opening, the new Santa Fe combines urban practicality and outdoor adventure readiness in one package. Its striking design features a high-shouldered stance, H-shaped LED lighting, a chrome-finished grille, and a tailgate that doubles as a terrace-like space.
