The 2022 Hyundai Santa Fe is now available in a new XRT trim in the US market. The newly added variant of the SUV imparts a bolder and more rugged appearance to the vehicle that should be appreciated by customers, especially true enthusiasts.

The matte black front grille adds to the masculinity of the new trim whereas the XRT-exclusive side steps and 18-inch wheels take things to a next level.
