Green Features of the 2023 Hyundai Santa Fe Plug-In Hybrid

Hyundai is an automaker dedicated to manufacturing green, environmentally friendly vehicles that also provide excellent value for drivers. One such favorite among drivers at Kearny Mesa Hyundai is the 2023 Hyundai Santa Fe Plug-In Hybrid. Here are some of the green features that you’ll find on this family-friendly SUV.

The Best of Both Worlds

Under the hood of the 2023 Hyundai Santa Fe Plug-In Hybrid is both a 66.9kW electric motor and a 13.8kWh lithium-ion battery, along with a 1.6-liter turbocharged engine that outputs 261 horsepower. This powertrain is connected to a smooth six-speed automatic transmission and standard HTRAC All-Wheel-Drive.

For short-range driving, the 2023 Hyundai Santa Fe Plug-In Hybrid even lets you avoid using gas entirely, with an estimated all-electric range of 30 miles.

Smart Ways to Power Up

Charging the battery of this new Hyundai hybrid is simple. If you have a 240-volt outlet at home, you can go from empty to full in an estimated four hours. When you are charged, the regenerative braking converts the wheels’ mechanical energy into electricity, sending it back into the battery and saving you extra charging costs.

Finally, you can utilize the Hyundai Bluelink® mobile app to schedule charging remotely. The Bluelink app features both Charge Indicators and Charge Scheduling so that you can remotely set your SUV to charge during off-peak hours when the rates are lower, helping you save money.
