The Hyundai name<\/a> is one that we admire and enjoy on the market as a brand that brings us quality and affordability. Most of the time, the vehicles we see are built to be right for families to own and fit into the part of the automotive spectrum that allows us to have easy to enjoy and pay for models that can be easy to drive. It appears that Hyundai is ready to take a chance and offer us a crossover SUV that has the ability to enjoy the open air feeling of a convertible when you drive.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

A Santa Fe Cabriolet Could be on the Way<\/h2>\n

Recent views of a Hyundai Santa Fe<\/a> without a top have shown up to give us a look at what this impressive three-row SUV will be for the drive desired. This might be a great way to take the family out and allow everyone to enjoy the drive or to be the perfect way for you to show off with your friends on the road. Imagine how cool it would be to drive around in a large crossover SUV that has the top down on a sunny day.<\/p>\n

Just a Publicity Stunt<\/h2>\n

If you\u2019re wondering if I\u2019ve lost my marbles and have fallen in love with vehicles that shouldn\u2019t be made, you might be right with the Santa Fe Cabriolet. Thankfully, this is truly just a publicity stunt that\u2019s aimed at gaining our attention regarding the Santa Fe and what it has to offer. The photos of a Santa Fe without a top on it were found in the Australian market and it was created to only be a way to promote this new version of the Santa Fe that will certainly be offered with a roof and carry forward the feeling we have of this excellent SUV.<\/p>\n

An April Fool but Not in April<\/h2>\n

Every year, we look forward to the different jokes that automakers are playing on us with the beginning of April pranks. The Santa Fe team waited until now to give us a look at a great prank that would never come to fruition in a Cabriolet model of this SUV. Thankfully, they aren\u2019t going to make this SUV and it won\u2019t be one that we have to try and figure out, but it is pretty funny to think about with all the possibilities.<\/p>\n

What We Will Get in the Santa Fe<\/h2>\n

The Hyundai Santa Fe that we\u2019ll see on the market when it\u2019s time to drive will have either a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine that gives you 185 horsepower or a 2.0-liter turbocharged version that asks you to love having 235 ponies under the hood. Both are attached to an eight-speed automatic transmission and AWD is an option for each one. I can promise you that, unless the Hyundai team loses their proverbial minds, you\u2019re going to have an excellent drive in a Santa Fe that has a full roof over you and your passengers for the drive you enjoy.<\/p>\n
