Hyundai Santa Fe
Santa Fe is one of those names you hear less often in Joburg traffic, but for families who don’t want to follow the Fortuner herd, it’s worth a closer look. Hyundai’s offering slots in neatly where you’d expect: seven seats, all-wheel drive, and a badge you can trust—without lurching into Prado territory on price. Right now, forget about ordering new: this is a used-only reality, and the local classifieds paint a picture that’s all over the map. I found just four examples, priced from R79,500 to R279,500, with most hovering around the R217,700 mark. That’s a wide gulf, but it tracks with the age gap in stock. Petrol and diesel options, automatics across the board, and all the variety you’d expect from a model that’s been around for over two decades. Zoom in and you’ll spot everything from a 2001 2.7 petrol auto at R79,500—basic, but honest—all the way to a late-model R2.2 diesel Elite AWD 7S at R279,500, which brings the full suite of toys. There’s also a five-seat Elite auto at R249,900 if you pack smart and don’t need the extra pair of seats. Mileage averages out at 175,501 km, and while that’s not low, it’s par for the course with these family haulers. What I’ve always liked about the Santa Fe, especially compared to a Fortuner, is how much more car-like it feels—both on the freeway to Durban and crawling in Sandton school runs. The R2.2 diesel in later models is quiet and doesn’t drink like a rugby team, which matters, because a Fortuner diesel at this age will cost you more for less spec. On paper at least, the Santa Fe has always offered more kit for your rand, and that’s the point.
Hyundai
Hyundai’s presence in South Africa isn’t just about filling showroom floors with generic metal. It’s right there in the thick of things, slugging it out with Toyota, Volkswagen, and Suzuki for the wallets of real people—families, first-timers, and small business hustlers who can’t afford to buy badges or empty promises. On paper at least, those 245 used Hyundais—priced from R64,500 up to a wild R888,888—offer a spread that takes you from basic i10 hatchbacks through to a Staria van that’ll swallow an entire youth soccer team and still leave change for a tank of 95. The median sits at R219,995, which is the sweet spot for most buyers out there. Hyundai’s pitch isn’t all marketing gloss, either. They consistently undercut Volkswagen’s price tags, and if you pack smart, you’ll notice the Hyundais often come loaded with more kit than Suzuki equivalents, especially in the segments that matter. On the ground, it’s the i10 and i20 stealing the hatchback limelight, with i10s dipping below R80,000 and i20s stretching to R309,995 depending on how much life’s been squeezed out of them. The Venue and Creta mop up the compact SUV crowd, while Tucson listings push you into mid-size territory with some asking up to R519,500. Then you get the Staria, living in its own universe between R589,500 and R888,888—a 16-seater slab of practicality that no Polo or Swift can touch, because no one else even tries. Petrol is still king, though you’ll spot the odd diesel in bigger models like Tucson. More than half of Hyundai’s used stock is made up of SUVs and hatchbacks, which is exactly what South Africans want. Toyota may have the numbers, but Hyundai’s mix of affordability and equipment is what the competition really needs to worry about.
