The2021 Hyundai Santa Festunned the world when it was unveiled in October with its heavily refreshed exterior styling. The interior received attention as well thanks to several significant upgrades. Earlier this week we found out the fully-loaded Santa Fe Calligraphycosts about the sameas aBMW X3, and today the South Korean automaker has revealed full pricing for all trim levels.

The base model Santa Fe SE carries a starting price of $28,025, including the $1,175 destination fee. That's an increase of just $575 over the outgoing model. Adding all-wheel drive increases the price to $29,725. Moving up the trim ladder, the SEL with FWD starts at $29,825 but there's a significant increase from there.

Starting at $39,775 ($41,475 with AWD), the Limited comes powered by the turbocharged 2.5-liter with 277 horsepower and 311 lb-ft of torque instead of the naturally aspirated 2.5-liter four-cylinder with 191 hp and 182 lb-ft found in the lower two trims. Both engines are paired to an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission.

Lastly, the top-of-the-line Calligraphy, only available with the turbo four and AWD, begins at $43,275 with 19-inch wheels and $43,475 with the optional 20-inchers. As we noted the other day, the Santa Fe Calligraphy costs nearly the same as a new 2021 BMW X3 sDrive30i, which has an MSRP of $43,000 and $45,000 for the AWD version. Granted these are the base X3s, but still; a Hyundai has reached BMW pricing.
