The current Hyundai Santa Fe can tow up to 2,000 kg braked. Figures below are the strongest variant in each generation — lighter trims and engines tow less.
Unbraked (no trailer brakes): 750 kg.
| Years | Braked | Unbraked |
|---|---|---|
| 2000–2007 | 2,300 | 750 |
| 2006–2010 | 2,200 | 750 |
| 2010–2021 | 2,500 | 750 |
| 2016–present | 2,000 | 750 |
| 2021–2024 | 1,650 | 750 |
Towing capacity is the manufacturer-rated maximum for the model's strongest variant in each generation, not an average across trims — a base engine will tow less than the figure shown. Cars with an implausible source-data towing figure relative to their own kerb weight are excluded rather than shown with a guessed correction.
