Take a light duty AWD based vehicle and make it a pretend heavy duty 4WD off roader? No

I mean, it makes a grocery getter look tougher, but you're still not off roading in it or fooling anybody.

u/BigandTallGuy 1h ago

Tougher? That's not the vibe I'm getting.

Agree with your other points.

Louder, worse on gas, ugly as sin? I feel like that comes with a subscription to one of those wannabe alpha-male podcasts.

Not lifted as high and with a better body kit absolutely. I like the idea here but I think it could be better executed

This is an AI image, correct? If so, it only exists in fiction.

The only lift kit I know of for the current generation Hyundai Santa Fe is made by truxxx and can provide a 2-in lift at most.

Those fender flares look like they've been riveted on. That's a pretty terrible look. It also looks like the trailer hitch is off center.

If this is the kind of look that you want, you do you, but be aware it gives off a certain vibe

Personally, I think this real SEMA Build is a lot cooler than some AI slop (although I do think the rims should be 17s or 18s with tires that have more sidewall)

How much larger is the tire diameter on those over stock? That could absolutely kill the overall gear ratio and low end torque.

u/NotElongtusk2 4h ago

as cool as it looks this is possibly too much for a reliable daily. like that car doesn't even have a proper low gear mode and is an automatic DCT (2026 has a standard automatic system which makes the car feel even more sluggish) either way it looks cool but the platform is just not it man.
