ANCAP Safety Report (PDF)

The tested model of Hyundai Santa Fe was introduced in Australia during 2006. Vehicles tested after 1 January 2008 will require Electronic Stability Control in order achieve a 5 star rating. This vehicle was tested prior to this date and may or may not meet this new requirement.

The diesel left-hand-drive European model was tested by Euro NCAP. Australasian specifications may vary and therefore models sold in Australasia might provide different levels of protection to those described on this page.

Safety equipment, as tested, not standard on all variants. Dual front airbags are standard equipment. Antilock brakes (ABS), electronic brake distribution (EBD) are also standard. Side airbags, head-protecting side curtains and electronic stability control (ESC) are standard on the SLX and Elite variants but are not availabe on the SX variant. This package is standard on all New Zealand variants. An audible seat belt reminder is fitted to the driver seat but it was not eligible for a bonus point. The front seat belt buckles are mounted on the seats and the upper anchorages are adjustable. These features improve the fit of the seat belt. Pre-tensioners are fitted to the front seat belts to reduce slack in the event of a crash. A three point seat belt is fitted to the centre seat in both rear rows. This provides better protection than a two point (lap) seat belt.
