Our Verdict
A strong recommendation for buyers seeki
Because this is a high-specification PHEV (Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle), your primary focus should be on the charging documentation and the health of the battery system. Ensure the manufacturer's warranty is transferable and check if any software updates have been performed on the hybrid management system.
While the MOT history shows no mechanical defects, you should still verify the service intervals have been met, as high-tech hybrid systems require strict adherence to manufacturer schedules. Negotiate based on the fact that the vehicle has covered 34,564 miles in roughly two years, which is higher than average for a 2024 registration.
Running costs for this 1598cc hybrid will vary significantly depending on how frequently the battery is charged. If driven primarily on electric power, fuel costs will be low, but regular petrol use will align more with standard SUV consumption.
As a 2024 model, it likely falls into a modern tax bracket, though PHEV tax benefits vary by specific CO2 output. Insurance groups for 'Ultimate' trim Hyundais tend to be mid-to-high due to the high specification and technology. Expect typical maintenance costs for a premium SUV, though regenerative braking often reduces wear on brake pads.
Inspect the charging port and the supplied charging cables to ensure they are present and undamaged. Since the MOT history shows no defects at 34,564 miles, the mechanical components passed inspection, but you should still check for any signs of uneven tyre wear which can occur with high-torque hybrid motors.
Check the hybrid system's integration with the infotainment, as the 'Ultimate' trim is heavily reliant on electronic interfaces. Given the mileage, ensure the tyres have sufficient tread depth, as the weight of a PHEV can accelerate wear compared to standard petrol models.
This 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe Ultimate PHEV is a relatively recent registration with 34,564 miles on the clock. The MOT history is notably clean, with two passes recorded in 2026—one at 7,505 miles and a more recent one at 34,564 miles—neither of which resulted in any defects. Given its status as a plug-in hybrid, it offers a modern Euro 6 compliant powertrain suitable for various driving environments.
There is currently no aggregate MOT data available to establish a long-term reliability pattern for the Santa Fe Ultimate PHEV model.
