She actually liked the idea, and we ended up getting the 2025 Santa Fe Calligraphy. Couldn’t be happier.
Kind of funny how the new Santa Fe looks a bit like a Grand Cherokee, while the newer Jeep models just look like every other round SUV… even the older Santa Fe looked more unique.

Honestly, I think it looks more like the Commander with the boxy shape and third-row seating. We’ve got both the Commander and Cherokee, and the Santa Fe definitely feels bigger and boxier.

Nah, it’s more like a lifted Ford Flex to me.

Yep, that’s exactly what I thought too. Cracks me up every time.

It really does look like a Ford Flex!

Totally agree.
Never really got why people buy Jeeps, but I have to admit Chrysler has kept my dad’s shop busy for years.
Congrats on the new ride! I wasn’t a fan of that color myself, but Terra Cotta Orange is pretty cool.

That’s actually the color she really wanted. We almost settled for the grey/blue, but she just wasn’t into it. Luckily, they tracked down the Terra Cotta for her.

Love that color! I’ve got the grey/blue hybrid, but I really wish they made the Terra Cotta version in Canada. Had an orange VW before this one and still miss it… Easy to spot in a parking lot!
I’d be a bit nervous convincing my wife to switch cars like that… If something goes wrong, it’s all on me. Hopefully, the Santa Fe lives up to it. My 2024 Calligraphy has been great so far though.

Well, coming from a Jeep, even if it’s just okay, it’s still an upgrade!
We thought about selling both the Commander and Cherokee to get the Santa Fe. Ended up keeping the Commander for my husband to take hunting. No way am I letting the Santa Fe go off-road. Also got 66 mpg today.
Don’t get the Santa Fe… Trust me on this one.

Yeah, I agree. Going through the buyback process right now.
That color was my first choice too, but we couldn’t wait around for it. Ended up with the Earthy Brass Calligraphy that hit the lot first.
Had to rent a Grand Cherokee once. Honestly, hated every minute of it.
Her mechanic’s probably not going to be too happy about this…
Does it have that camera on the steering wheel that watches your face?
