Since how your vehicle performs is so crucial to your daily drive, let’s start our comparison with a look at the powertrain differences between the Hyundai Santa Fe and Toyota RAV4.
Kicking things off, the 2022 Santa Fe offers an available 2.5-liter Turbo 4-cylinder engine. This motor delivers 281 horsepower and 311 lb-ft of torque for sleek and dynamic gear changes on the open road.
The sole powertrain in the 2021 RAV4 comes up short, though, with only 203 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque, so you may notice a difference in the way these two SUVs perform.
As you cruise around feeling the supreme power of your selected engine, relax into your expansive cabin. Both the Hyundai Santa Fe and Toyota RAV4 have roomy cabins, but there are some notable differences.
As you can see, the Santa Fe and RAV4 offer similar rear headroom with roughly 39 inches to enjoy. However, when it comes to more space overall, clearly the Santa Fe has more to offer, leading in:
Additionally, the Santa Fe has some extra cargo space with a maximum of 72.1 cubic feet when the rear seat is folded down. It may be a tight fit for your bulkier items in the Toyota RAV4, though, with only 69.8 cubic feet of maximum cargo space.

In both SUVs, you’ll find an available Surround View Monitor, which utilizes cameras placed all around your exterior to provide you with a comprehensive view of your surroundings when backing in and out of parking spaces.
When roaming the ever-changing road, the 2022 Hyundai Santa Fe offers a Heads-up Display, which projects essential driving information on your windshield for easier visibility. Since this system isn’t available in the 2021 Toyota RAV4, you’ll have to tear your eyes off the fast-paced highway to view your current driving speed, equipped safety system warnings, and navigational instructions.
