The 2018 Hyundai Santa Fe range of configurations is currently priced from $12,499.
Our most recent review of the 2018 Hyundai Santa Fe resulted in a score of 8 out of 10 for that particular example.
Carsguide Family reviewer Nedahl Stelio had this to say at the time: The Hyundai Santa Fe was a great family car for us this week. It drives really well with enough power for short or long trips, and I was confident driving it. There’s enough space for the whole family and those two extra seats will definitely come in handy when you have visitors. I gave it a family rating of eight out of 10, because I found it a really easy car to drive and fit into my lifestyle. My children gave it an 8.5 - they love that back row.

The 2018 Hyundai Santa Fe carries a braked towing capacity of up to 2000 Kg, but check to ensure this applies to the configuration you're considering.
It sounds to me as though you’ve only talked – at this stage – to your Hyundai dealership. I’d be taking the time to contact Hyundai Australia’s customer service division and asking for a firm timetable of when the work will be carried out and when you can expect to be driving your own car again. There’s always the ACCC to talk to if you don’t get a satisfactory answer, but give Hyundai Australia the chance to make things right. Hyundai is a brand that is very serious about its reputation and sometimes enquiries at dealership level don’t always get straight through to head office.

The key difference is the Tucson is a medium-sized five-seater while the Santa Fe is a large SUV that seats seven. Both have similar equipment levels, safety features, and powertrains. You haven’t told us what your boat weighs, but the Tucson is rated to tow up to 1600 kg (braked trailer) while the Santa Fe will haul up to 2000 kg (braked trailer).

You’re very close to the limit at 1920 kg, but it is within Hyundai’s maximum for the Santa Fe. That said I would be conservative and try and lighten the load on tow somehow.
