Hyundai Santa Fe Horsepower by Year
The Hyundai Santa Fe’s catalog horsepower ranges from 138 to 290 hp across the years covered here. These figures provide a quick way to compare the engine power listed for Santa Fe models, but the range alone does not identify the rating for a particular vehicle.
The catalog covers model years 2001 through 2023. Horsepower varies across those years and by engine, so the minimum and maximum should not be read as the rating for every Santa Fe or for every trim. Check the entry for the relevant year and engine when comparing vehicles.
If a specific horsepower figure is not listed for your vehicle, confirm it in the owner’s manual. The vehicle’s door jamb is another place to check vehicle-specific specifications; do not assume the catalog range gives an exact rating for a particular trim.
