Drive a Santa Fe Plug-In Hybrid

A Hyundai Santa Fe Plug-In Hybrid SUV rental gets you a 2023 five-seater that pairs a 1.6-liter turbo four-cylinder with an electric motor. Run your daily drives on electricity, then let the gas engine take over for road trips. It's a standout Hyundai rental for guests who want both.

On Turo, the car rental marketplace, you book your Santa Fe Plug-In Hybrid from a local vehicle owner. Choose the pickup or delivery option shown on the listing — whichever fits your plans.

Electric miles with a gas-powered safety net

The Santa Fe Plug-In Hybrid gives you up to 31 miles of EPA-rated electric driving from its 13.8 kWh battery. Together, the turbo engine and electric motor make 261 hp and 224 lb-ft of torque. Once the battery's spent, you still get 33 mpg combined, plus a 76 MPGe combined rating.

Room for five and their gear

The Santa Fe Plug-In Hybrid seats five, with 36.4 cubic feet of cargo space behind the second row. Fold that row down and you'll have up to 72.1 cubic feet for luggage, strollers, or a weekend's worth of gear.

The 60/40 split second row folds with power buttons, so reshaping the cargo area at the curb takes a quick press. Underfloor storage keeps smaller items tucked out of sight. AAA's review found that five adults ride comfortably on long trips — good news if your whole crew is grown up.

Tech that lightens the drive

A 10.25-inch touchscreen sits front and center, giving you a big, clear view of the controls you'll use most. Voice recognition lets you speak a request instead of tapping through menus — handy when your eyes belong on the road.

On longer stretches, you'll have Highway Driving Assist as standard equipment. It's Hyundai's driver-assist system for highway driving, built to lighten the load on interstate miles while you stay alert and in control. Before you set off, take a minute to pair your phone and learn the screen layout. You'll spend less time fiddling and more time enjoying the drive.

Stand out with a Santa Fe Plug-In Hybrid

The Santa Fe Plug-In Hybrid suits guests who want electric-mode city driving during the week and gas range for weekend getaways. It's also a strong match for families of up to five and for travelers curious about plug-in life before they buy. Compare it with other SUV rental on Turo options to find your fit.

Top Santa Fe Plug-In Hybrid features

HTRAC all-wheel drive

Three highlights set this SUV apart: HTRAC all-wheel drive, a six-speed automatic, and quick 240V charging.

Every US Santa Fe Plug-In Hybrid comes with HTRAC all-wheel drive as standard. That means extra confidence on rain-slicked roads and in changing weather, whether you're crossing town or crossing state lines.

AAA's review notes that the SUV stays planted in corners with little body lean. You'll feel that composure on winding highways, tight on-ramps, and busy city streets. It's the kind of steady, sure-footed handling that lets you focus on the trip ahead instead of the road surface. Pair it with the electric range and gas backup, and you've got an SUV that's ready for the season, whatever it brings.

A six-speed automatic

The Santa Fe Plug-In Hybrid uses a conventional six-speed automatic paired with its hybrid system. You'll feel distinct, stepped shifts as the 1.6-liter turbo four-cylinder and electric motor work together.

That pairing delivers 261 hp and 224 lb-ft of torque, so you have plenty of pull for merging onto the highway. The transmission keeps things familiar if you're new to plug-in hybrids — you shift into drive and go, just like any other automatic. Meanwhile, the hybrid system handles the hand-off between electric and gas power for you. It's an easy way to try plug-in life without learning a whole new way to drive.

Quick charging at home or on the go

The 13.8 kWh battery recharges in about 3.4 hours on a 240V (Level 2) charger, per Edmunds. Plug in overnight, and you'll wake up to a full charge for your next round of errands.

That short charge time makes the Santa Fe Plug-In Hybrid easy to live with on a trip. If your stay has a Level 2 charger, you can top up between outings and keep most local miles electric. If it doesn't, no stress — the gas engine keeps you moving. Either way, you won't need to plan your whole itinerary around a plug.

Top tips and things to know before renting a Santa Fe Plug-In Hybrid

Get to know your Santa Fe Plug-In Hybrid

Know your trim, plan your charging, and check the listing for pricing before you book. Here's what to keep in mind.

The Santa Fe Plug-In Hybrid comes in two trims: SEL Convenience and Limited. It's a two-row SUV with seating for five — not a three-row model — so plan around that for larger groups. If you'd rather skip gas entirely, check out the all-electric Hyundai Ioniq 5.

Santa Fe Plug-In Hybrid driving tips

Start in electric mode for short trips to make the most of the 31-mile range. For a full recharge, plan about 3.4 hours on a Level 2 charger. On longer drives, the 12.4-gallon tank keeps you moving between gas station stops.

Return the SUV with the same fuel and charge level you picked it up with, per Turo policy. Photograph both gauges at pickup and again at return. Bringing it back below 20% battery can add a low-battery fee.

How much does it cost to rent a Santa Fe Plug-In Hybrid?

Santa Fe Plug-In Hybrid prices vary by location, dates, and trim, since local vehicle owners set their own rates. Many listings offer discounts on trips of three days, one week, and longer. You can also save 10% with a non-refundable discount when you book four or more days ahead.

  1. * Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet. In the US, liability insurance is provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company. Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply. The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.

  2. For questions or information about the third party liability insurance for trips in the US, consumers in Maryland and the licensed states listed here may contact Turo Insurance Agency at (415) 508-0283 or claims@turo.agency. For questions about how damage to a host’s vehicle is handled, visit the Turo Support site. When a trip is booked in the state of Washington, physical damage to the host’s vehicle is covered by insurance purchased by Turo, but the Turo insurance does not change the contractual responsibilities of hosts or guests with respect to physical damage to a host’s vehicle.
