Hyundai Reveals 2013 Santa Fe Sport and Santa Fe LWB for Seven at the New York Auto Show

Hyundai finally dropped the curtains on its new 2013 Santa Fe crossover today at the New York International Auto Show.

The five-seater Santa Fe Sport rides on a 106.3-inch (2,700mm) wheelbase, and has an overall length of 184.6 inches (4,690mm), height of 66.1 inches (1,680mm), and width of 74.0 inches (1,880mm).

The larger Santa Fe sports a longer wheelbase of 110.2-inches (2,800mm), with increased overall length of 193.1 inches (4,905mm), height of 66.5 inches (1,690mm), and width of 74.2-inch (1,885mm). The three-row Santa Fe’s cargo volume is 41.0 cubic feet.
