Car Forum / Hyundai Cars / April 2005Tucson roomier than Santa Fe?
Looking at the specs on Hyundai's web site, it looks like the Tucson is roomier in the front seat (where it really matters to me) than the Santa Fe, even though Tucson is a slightly smaller vehicle. Has anyone here tried on the Tucson yet? Does it feel bigger inside? The Santa Fe's B pillar was obnoxiously located for me, ruling it out immediately. Maybe there's hope for the Tucson... My 6' husband is quite comfy in the front seat as a pasenger since I drive usally. He was quoted as stating how roomy our 2002 Santa Fe is. > Looking at the specs on Hyundai's web site, it looks like the Tucson > is roomier in the front seat (where it really matters to me) than the > Santa Fe, even though Tucson is a slightly smaller vehicle. > > Has anyone here tried on the Tucson yet?

Maybe there's hope for the Tucson... Me too. More head room would be nice also, my hair keeps getting messed up as it rubs against the top.

That sold my wife on the Tucson over the Sante Fe.

I understood the Tuscon had more width for the driver/passenger too....Good for you fat folks<G> I'm also glad I'm only 5'8"....my Santa Fe fits me well but I can see how it might be a bit cramped for over 6'.... > Yes, more leg room.

Maybe there's hope for the Tucson... Following up myself, I went and tried a couple of Tucsons on today, and with the seat adjusted correctly, I fit into it quite comfortably. There was even enough headroom in the LX with the sun roof! I now have two vehicles of this type on my list of eligible machines: the Tucson and the Honda Element. Because its drivers' seat is more adjustable, the Tucson has a scoche more legroom than the Element, so it's in the lead as of now.  SignatureGeorge Bush's War of Choice on Iraq is a totally unnecessary war. Every life lost, every limb lost, every disfigurement, every disability caused there is more blood on George W. Bush's hands, and on the hands of everyone who votes for George W. Bush. > I now have two vehicles of this type on my list of eligible machines: > the Tucson and the Honda Element.

Over the weekend I tried on a Kia Sportage, and with its lower center console and better shifter placement, it's even more comfortable... with the same warranty as the Tucson. Same adjustable driver's seat, too. Signature"I am afeard there are few die well that die in a battle; for how can they charitably dispose of anything when blood is their argument? Now, if these men do not die well, it will be a black matter for the King that led them to it; who to disobey were against all proportion of subjection." - W.S. i prefer the tuscons look over the sportages >>> I now have two vehicles of this type on my list of eligible >>> machines: the Tucson and the Honda Element.
