If you’re looking for a capable family SUV to improve your Corvallis adventures, look no further than the 2025 Hyundai Santa Fe. With an efficient engine and available AWD, the Santa Fe can be equipped to tackle a wide range of situations, so you can rest easy and drive with confidence. 

In this overview, we’ll consider the 2025 Hyundai Santa Fe specs, including performance-related specifications like the Hyundai Santa Fe mpg rating, and basic engine specs like horsepower and torque. We’ll also let you know what the Hyundai Santa Fe towing capacity is, in case you find yourself needing to haul. Let’s get started!

2025 Hyundai Santa Fe Engine Specs

We’ll begin by taking a look at the 2025 Hyundai Santa Fe engine specs. All 2025 Santa Fe trims run on a 2.5L turbo I4 engine, and you can replace the standard FWD with AWD (except on the XRT trim, which is AWD-only). Check out the Hyundai Santa Fe engine specs below: 

Smartstream 2.5L Turbo GDI + MPI DOHC 16-valve Inline 4-cylinder

• 277 hp @ 5,800 rpm
• 311 lb-ft of torque @ 4,000 rpm
• Standard FWD drivetrain
• HTRAC AWD drivetrain optional (Standard on XRT)

All Santa Fe models also come equipped with an eight-speed wet dual-clutch transmission that has SHIFTRONIC® manual shift paddle shifters, and Drive Mode Select is standard across the lineup. With it, you can choose from Eco, Comfort, Sport, or Smart driving modes to fully optimize your Philomath driving experience.

2025 Hyundai Santa Fe Towing Capacity & Fuel Efficiency

Next up in our overview of the 2025 Hyundai Santa Fe specs are towing and fuel efficiency. Check them out below, and contact us if you have any questions! 

Hyundai Santa Fe Towing Capacity

The maximum amount that you can trailer with your 2025 Santa Fe varies based on whether you have trailer brakes equipped or not. Without them, you’re limited to a maximum load of 1,650 pounds, which may enable you to tow a small, unloaded travel trailer or a few kayaks (but not much more). This can be useful, but your capabilities are certainly quite limited.

On the other hand, if you do equip trailering brakes, you can push your maximum capacity to 3,500 pounds. Now, your trailering options become far more flexible, and your Santa Fe can, for example, take on the role of a moving vehicle if you want to avoid the hassle of hiring and paying professional movers!
