The Hyundai Santa Fe will be popular with taller drivers and passengers in the front seat, due to its greater front head- and legroom than the Hyundai Tucson.
Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Hyundai Santa Fe as you will with the Hyundai Tucson, as they are both able to travel similar distances on a tank of gas.
Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The Hyundai Santa Fe is somewhat more expensive than the Hyundai Tucson.
Dimensions
The Hyundai Santa Fe is a little wider than the Hyundai Tucson, so getting in and out of the car in a crowded parking lot may be a little more of a squeeze.
For some people, bigger is better. If that's the case for you, then you'll be happier with the Hyundai Santa Fe, which is slightly longer than the Hyundai Tucson.
Handling
The Hyundai Santa Fe has a smaller turning radius than the Hyundai Tucson, allowing you to more easily maneuver in and out of tight spots.

In terms of horsepower, it's a virtual tie between the Hyundai Santa Fe and the Hyundai Tucson.
Powertrain
With similar torque, the Hyundai Santa Fe and the Hyundai Tucson are about even in transmitting their respective horsepower to the wheels.
Utility
