Hyundai SANTA FE Hybrid XRT Option Packs Now Available, Enhancing Off-Road Capability

Oct 14, 2024 2:59 PM

Hyundai has introduced the off-road-ready XRT Option Packs for the SANTA FE Hybrid. These Genuine Accessories, developed in collaboration with the Hyundai America Technical Centre, are available in two variants: XRT Peak and XRT Adventure. The packs are designed to improve the off-road performance of the SANTA FE Hybrid with enhanced suspension, wheels, tyres, and other accessories.

Both XRT packs provide an increased ride height of 30mm, resulting in improved approach, departure, and breakover angles. This makes the SANTA FE Hybrid more capable on rough terrain, with the XRT version boasting a ground clearance of 210mm compared to the standard 177mm. The XRT packs include specially tuned Mando dampers, suspension knuckles, stabiliser bars, and a 17-inch all-terrain tyre setup.

The off-road tyres were developed in conjunction with Pirelli, selected after rigorous testing to offer optimal balance between off-road capability and on-road comfort. The two pack options come with different features. The XRT Peak includes a roof platform, bonnet protector, and integrated side steps, while the XRT Adventure focuses more on rugged essentials like skid plates and suspension kits.

Both XRT Option Packs are covered by Hyundai’s 5-Year, Unlimited Kilometre Warranty when fitted by an authorised Hyundai dealership at the time of purchase. Pricing starts at $6,990 for the XRT Adventure and $9,990 for the XRT Peak, both including GST and fitment.
