Hyundai Santa Fe vs. Nissan Murano Review

Utility
The Santa Fe will most certainly prove friendlier than the Nissan Murano for those of you with frequent child-cargo.

Dimensions
The Hyundai Santa Fe's tank is about the same size as the Nissan Murano's, though the Nissan Murano's is a little bigger. The Hyundai Santa Fe and the Nissan Murano compete for the same parking spaces.

Convenience
You most certainly won't have to visit your friendly gas station more often with the Hyundai Santa Fe than with the Nissan Murano, as both offer similar mileage ranges.

Cost
The destination charge is a standard charge for transporting the vehicle from its point of origin to the dealer. It costs almost the same to get the Hyundai Santa Fe to the dealership as the Nissan Murano. The Hyundai Santa Fe doesn't pale in comparison to the Nissan Murano in terms of fuel economy. There honestly isn't much of a difference in gas mileage here, but if you must know, the Hyundai Santa Fe is somewhat more economical than the Nissan Murano. The Nissan Murano isn't much pricier than the Santa Fe with respect to MSRP.

Handling
With their similar turning radiuses, the Santa Fe and the Nissan Murano quite certainly handle almost the same into and out of tight spots.

Drivetrain
The Nissan Murano's engine is significantly bigger than the Santa Fe's. Remember that more sizeable engines may use more gas than smaller ones. The Hyundai Santa Fe could learn a lesson or two from the Nissan Murano regarding pickup. The Nissan Murano packs quite a wallop compared to the Hyundai regarding torque, which is the force that lets you accelerate quickly.

Comfort
While the front cabin in the Hyundai Santa Fe offers a bit more head room than the Nissan Murano, there frankly isn't much of a difference. While the rear of the Hyundai provides a bit more head- and leg-room than the Nissan Murano, there really isn't much of a difference.

Overview
The basic warranty that comes with the Nissan Murano isn't quite as generous as the Hyundai's.
