For Hyundai the competition in the SUV segment has always been tough with all other brands gaining appreciable sales and the brand itself starving for what it deserved. Ever since the brand brought the Hyundai Terracan and Hyundai Tucson to the Indian Market, its been a while that we saw any other SUV coming from the same.
Now after a long time Hyundai is back with another chunky and massive product targeted at the SUV segment, the new generation Hyundai Santa Fe. The car is already popular in the west and now is expected to help Hyundai make a mark in the desired segment.
