santa

fe and we're focusing specifically on the sel packages because as is tradition I don't just start at level one of the package, We move on to step number two, which is the sel, now to answer the biggest question I've been getting on my Santa Fe videos, yes they are. on sale right now at least in my location, so if you live in Orlando and are interested in this or any other Hyundai model, click on the first link in the description below that says schedule with miguel that way, you will I can guarantee it, but once you get here.

You'll go tame so we can move on and have some fun, but if you can't buy me a car, don't worry, subscribe and share that way you and I can continue to grow this channel big and strong. and let me feel comments, what else would you like to see in this? But without further ado, let's go ahead and talk about the Santa Fe SEL now, starting with the aesthetics, I think the designers hit it out of the park, they took the best parts. the outgoing generation and I went ahead and improved them. I'm also a big fan of this little trim piece down here, this little brushed aluminum look of the car really makes it look a little more aggressive because it's like I said before in a The video above makes it look like a little fang and I don't know why , but I like it quite a bit and, again, since it's a Hyundai, you have the familiar, big, bold chrome waterfall grille, letting you know it's a pride to be a Hyundai and with the daytime running lights they went ahead and upgraded them to that seemed much more connected, from the top to the headlight assembly, so that it would look much better that way.

Now you're probably saying it's all show. What's happening? Well, I'm glad you asked because in the 2021 generation you have the 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine that gives you 25 miles per gallon in the city and 28 miles per gallon on the highway and yes, it is still a gasoline engine with direct injection. giving you the best performance without having to sacrifice miles per gallon and if you ever wonder what this smart little stream means, it's Hyundai's own design. Yes, Hyundai is trying to get rid of dependence on suppliers, they now make their own engines. How about that and the other half of the powertrain component is the Santa Fe's eight-speed automatic transmission?

That way you could go at a faster speed and the engine doesn't have to rev as high again, maximizing your miles per gallon and where the rubber meets the road, you will be pleased to see these 18 inch alloy wheels with this textured appearance, where most other manufacturers try to put hubcaps on their cars. Hyundai designers are trying to make the Santa Fe look as nice as possible. It's called baby santa fe style. Now, looking at the car from the side and moving to the rear, you can see that these brushed aluminum trim pieces are around the car pulling the look together no matter what angle you're looking at.

And when you go ahead and open the tailgate with the seats up, you get 36 cubic feet of cargo space, but if you need to go ahead and move some bigger stuff, you can go ahead and throw those seats down and get a bunch of space. 72 cubic feet so we can go ahead and throw all but the largest items in the house in the back, so unless you have one of those Narnia cabinets, almost anything else fits in the rear of the Santa Fe, but wait, there's more and I'm talking about space because when you go ahead and open the floor storage you can see that right next to the door there is a small, thin area that can go ahead and house the tonneau cover. cargo, the first aid kit and all that, but if you go to the other, larger storage compartment under the floor, you could fit close to anything in that small area, so if your friends see this video and find out that you have a Santa Faith, they may call you to help them move, now they open the back doors you can see all the space that your rear passengers will be able to take advantage of and travel with you and design one of the most spacious cabins in its class and in case you live in a hot state like me you can go ahead and get your own air conditioning vent because you have air conditioning vents in the second row of your santa fe and don't worry if you are charging your phone and need an extra outlet you actually have two USB charging ports on the back.

Great, I think that's enough general stuff. Let me go ahead and dive into the details of what makes a scl and sell well. First, exiting the scl is the first level of Santa Fe that comes with the smart key with remote start, so all you have to do is lock the car and press and hold the button that says wait and then your car will go ahead and It will start up now. The second thing is to put the smart key in your pocket and in your bag, there's a little button here on the handle, so with the key.

It's up to you, all you have to do, go ahead, press the button, the door unlocks, you open it and then take a look inside your santa fe now, just like the back seats, they are comfortable, the seat front is actually very very comfortable and another difference with the scl is that it is the first level to go ahead and bring the electric driver's seat so if you live in a household where there are multiple drivers driving the same car you can set it up at their comfort level, they could set it to their comfort level without having to go ahead and do that little dog butt on the mat that you have to do in a manual seat, which makes life much easier and more elegant compared With the other way, another interesting thing is that you also have blind spots, so someone is next.

For you, the little lights here go ahead and come on to let you know that there's someone next to you, and as we've talked about in several videos, if you have a blind spot, you also have rear cross path detection, what that means. is that if you ever back out of a parking lot and can't see behind you, if the car detects that another vehicle is approaching, it will warn you so that you can avoid hitting them or them hitting you and me. favorite part. is that the santa fe sel is also the first to bring safe exit assist what safe exit assist does is prevent the rear doors from opening and let me tell you why that is very important let's say you are parked on the side of the road and traffic passes if someone in the back decides to open the door and traffic is next to you, guess what traffic might hit your door and remove it or worse yet, safe exit assist allows the door to lock until traffic to pass, so that way they can open the door and get out of the car much more safely and that's why safe exit assistance is so important, especially nowadays, and one of the most interesting things for the technicians of the scl is that it comes with the hyundai blue link.

Free subscription service for three full years. It's like Hyundai's version of the monster, but taken to a whole new level. Let's say you're at the mall and you forgot if I locked the Santa Fe. Go down here to check the vehicle status and see the status. of your vehicle if it is unlocked you just come here to the remote functions and then go ahead and lock your car without having to leave the comfort of the food court which is really smart now let's say you left the mall and are wondering where exactly Did I park it?

Go down here to the car finder and it will show up a map of where you are and where the car is. That way you could walk in the direction and find exactly where you left it. Oh, and did I mention it's free for Three years, yeah, how much better can it be now? You can't please everyone, but I haven't heard a single person complain about having the following feature. You have Apple Carplay and Android Auto, but it's even better than that because now in the Santa phase. The convenience of sc sel and seo is now wireless so you don't need a cable anymore, just plug in your phone and project it on the touch screen, it will be your navigation maps which is absolutely phenomenal and a huge step forward because BMW had Apple wireless.

Carplay, but it was like a subscription service unless you paid $300. This is free with Hyundai, so it's something next level and you get it with Hyundai. Now, from that beautiful touch screen, you see the new dashboard. de santa fe is very reminiscent of the palisade and is something that is tremendously beautiful, especially not only from an aesthetic point of view but also from a practical point of view, because since you have the cable shift, now you just go ahead, press the corresponding button if you want to go to reverse, neutral or park, now you have plenty of room under the center console so you can put whatever you want, ipad wallets, it doesn't matter, go ahead and put whatever you want in there for extra storage now, if you look just under the knob Driving mode in the Santa Fe you also see another difference with the SCL because it is the first level to go ahead and bring the heated seats, which, if you have lower back problems or it's just cold outside, is magical when Continue and activate it and trust me it won't take long to work and keeping with the whole future theme, when you go ahead and open this little cubby you will see an extra cup holder and another USB charging port so this way you can go ahead and plug in your phone or have the person next to you plug in their phone, but if your phone is capable of wireless charging, you have a wireless charging pad in your car in Santa Fe Seo, all you have to do is swipe.

Place your phone in this little cutout and then voila, it will start charging without needing a cable, so again, the 21 Santa Fe is absolutely technical and borders on that, maybe too technical, but like I said, I don't really think there is much Good. tech, I hope you're paying attention and if you're still watching the video, please click the subscribe button so you can get the latest content when I post it and keep in mind that it's just normal SEO. let's go ahead and update to the scl with the convenience package, let's go and let everyone be the santa fe scl 2021 with the convenience package and it brings a lot of updates that go far beyond the scl that I just showed you and if you you know, where to look, you can tell that, first of all, it's a little bit different.

If you go ahead and look at the side mirrors with turn signals, you will see that there is now a signal in the mirrors, like I said, if someone is next to you. Hopefully, they can see that you're about to change lanes without accidentally walking in front of you. Another big advantage of the SCL is that it is the first level to go ahead and bring the power lift gate and of course you get a power one. liftgate that can open and close on its own. My favorite part is something called the smart liftgate because as long as you have the smart key with you and activate it in the cluster, all you have to do is get within three feet of the rear bumper. you don't have to kick or anything just stay here and it opens no need to dance for the santa fe sel with the convenience package and still standing back here i just want to take a moment to appreciate the LED tail lights that you will find on the convenience package because they will last much longer and shine much brighter compared to the standard incandescent bulbs found on basically every other SUV, just take a moment to appreciate the detail, now remember on the regular stl you had. to press a button to get into the car with the smart key in, guess what in the convenience package there is no button to press, all you have to do is come here with the key in, you grab the handle, it unlocks and then You can sit inside the Santa Fe without having to search for a button, the entire handle is the button now and that's exactly what you deserve and what you'll get in the comfort of the SEL.

Now, here's something interesting about the scl. Even on the regular SCL, the rear window tints aren't actually tinted, the glass is actually darker, so let's say you're going on a long road trip and you're getting too much sun to get through those dark windows. get the convenience package and you're sitting in the back, you also have these little sunshades on the side windows, all you have to do is hang them there and you'll get a lot more shade and a lot more comfort on your long distance road trips, how wonderful! is that and since we are still in therear, of course, here's another thing that you get with the convenience package and it's actually this little assembly here, which is the ultrasonic sensors, so if you ever close the car and there's someone in the car and they start to moving the car will go ahead and send alerts to your phone and start honking to let you know, hey, someone's in the car, handle that because of course Hyundai wants everyone no matter how big or small they are. be as safe as possible that's another great feature and why the santa fe is such an amazing car especially for a family now something i like that you will also like in the stl with the convenience package is that If you look at the steering wheel, you'll now notice that it's leather-wrapped, so when you go ahead and put your hand on it, it'll feel a little more upscale than it would if you came from regular SEO to comfort, but My Favorite Part is that convenience is the first level to bring the digital cluster, which means that if you decide to pair your cluster with your drive mode knob, you can go ahead and cycle through the different drive modes and the whole cluster will change or you can go ahead and select the themes yourself, so if you prefer to have theme b instead of theme.

Leave it on theme b or my personal favorite, if you go down here to theme d, you'll see these little tron ​​that look like cubes there and I don't know why I like that because it makes me feel like I'm living in the future and with all the technology in convenience, you will feel exactly the same way, another phenomenal thing and I stress this every time, I think it's because my car doesn't have it personally, I love the fact that when you opt to get the convenience package, you will also get dual zone climate control so as a driver if you want to cool down your side you can go ahead and cool it down and as a passenger if you want to go ahead and warm up your side you can go ahead and warm it up and none of the two has to suffer because they are both quite sitting at the temperature you selected, love, you now know that in the selection.

I told you you have a blue link, well this one does. also but it has something else that is integrated into the blue link and it is the hyundai digital key and I'm just going to tell you that I had a client who came to buy a g70 for her son and then I showed him the key. he says oh this has a key, well I have a 70,000 bmw x6m and my phone is my key, well guess what, now you don't have to go ahead and spend 70,000 because with the Hyundai digital key you do have an Android with Android. phone, you can make your phone the real key so you can go ahead and just press a button and unlock the car, start it and drive it all through the power of your phone and the best part is you can actually share It's so If you have people from out of town and you don't want them to go ahead and rent a car, just share your digital key with their phone so they can use their phone to drive your car, which is so smart and something that is new to them. hyundai santa fe sel 21 with the convenience package, do you see why no matter how much popularity I gain, I still sell these cars?

They are absolutely amazing and packed with the best features ever. not only in high-end cars, but they are now being integrated into cars that are affordable for normal people like you and me, but let's say the convenience package is still not enough for you, well, there's just one more place to go and so. it's the premium package and that everyone is the 2021 hyundai santa fe with the premium package and let me take a moment to say that I love this hampton gray color. This is the first time I've seen this color on the Santa Fe body style. and I'm a big fan and another good thing that I'm a fan of is that you can tell it's premium just by looking in one place, all you have to do is look at the roof and if it has this glass on top, that means that It's premium because the premium is the first model to come with the panoramic sunroof and if you think it looks good on the outside, go ahead and dive in and check it out from the inside because all seating positions have a clear sky. view of everything that is right above you which is absolutely magical now the santa fe premium is not just magical to look at or look through it is also magical to sit in because it is the first level to go ahead and bring in seats lined in leather, no No matter if you are driving, caught a shotgun or if you are in the second row back, yes you will enjoy the leather comfort that you expect from premium models and another premium feature of the premium package is the premium sound because it is the first level that includes harman kardon premium surround sound audio and I know I've said it many times but that's just to emphasize how good the sound system really is, head to your local dealership and if you're in Orlando. come and look at us and you can listen to it together and another great thing is that it's also the first level that comes with the 10 and a quarter inch touch screen, that way if your phone goes off and you're in a strange part.

From the city you've never been to before, don't worry, you now have factory navigation to help back you up and now there are a few more secrets talking about the touch screen. If you go ahead and swipe right, you'll see a full menu filled. with options, but I'm going to go ahead and tell you about two, one is the silent mode, so let's say you go ahead and drive to pick up the kids and you're really vibing to the music that's playing, but when you pick them up, you have to go ahead and turn down the volume on the radio, now with silent mode all you have to do is press a button, it turns off the speakers in the back and turns down the speakers in the front so everything is nice and quiet and then , when you're ready to go ahead and vibrate again, just go ahead, turn off silent mode and now you're interfering.

That was still in the 2020 versions, but a new feature for 2021 is passenger conversation, so if you're driving down the road and you don't. you want to turn your whole body to talk to the people in the back, all you have to do is come here, press silent mode and then the best thing is you look at this, your voice is projected to the back, you can hear that, like this. way you can go ahead and start communicating without having to take your attention away from the front of the car because that's not really that smart, especially at highway speeds, but now, in the 2021 Santa Fe, you now have a intercom like the one I had in the stockade so that that way they could be as safe and technical as possible, so guys, these have been the 2021 hyundai santa fe s e ls and no, I didn't talk about every little detail of the car because it would take too much time and I'm too far away for that but if you like these videos please subscribe and share them that way you and I can continue to grow the channel big and strong and tell me what else you would like to see in the comments below so my name.

It's McGary Car Guy and this thing has broken down so until next time let's go ahead and
