Passengers in the backseat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Hyundai Santa Fe than in the Cadillac XT4, due to its greater head- and legroom. The Hyundai Santa Fe will be a hit with tall drivers and their front seat passengers, since it has greater front head- and legroom than the Cadillac XT4.
