Fuel Economy Update for May - 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe Long-Term Road Test
We added 1,500 miles to our 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe in the month of May. Here's an update on its fuel economy.

14 MPG! Might as well be driving my 2005 Trailblazer.
Right in line with the EPA combined though.
The Santa Fe is basically getting the same mpg I get on my AWD CX-9 which I got in 2009 but is essentially a 2006 vehicle. I've never achieved 25 but I also never did as poorly as 14 on a tank. I'm surprised that, with all the fuel economy gains in other segments, 3 row CUVs are doing about the same as they were 5+ years ago. Maybe the new Highlander will raise the bar.
