Comparison Review

Comfort
Rear passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Hyundai Santa Fe than in the Toyota Sequoia. 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 Toyota Sequoia.

Convenience
The Toyota Sequoia requires fewer stops at the gas station than the Hyundai Santa Fe, making it more convenient to drive.

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). Clearly, the Hyundai Santa Fe is a better financial choice over the Toyota Sequoia, when considering MSRP.

Dimensions
Since the Hyundai Santa Fe is much slimmer than the Toyota Sequoia, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot. If you go with the Hyundai Santa Fe, you'll have a much easier time finding a large enough space to park than you will with the Toyota Sequoia.

Handling
The Hyundai Santa Fe has a smaller turning radius than the Toyota Sequoia, allowing you to more easily maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
In terms of towing capacity, the Toyota Sequoia is clearly the choice over the Hyundai Santa Fe for pulling heavy loads. When it comes to horsepower, the Hyundai Santa Fe has a lot less horsepower than the Toyota Sequoia.

Powertrain
The Hyundai Santa Fe has much lower torque than the Toyota Sequoia, which generally means that it won't feel as fast or powerful.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Hyundai Santa Fe and the Toyota Sequoia. The Hyundai Santa Fe has less cargo space than the Toyota Sequoia, which is okay if you don't need to move a lot in one trip.
