How good is a Hyundai Santa Fe off road?

How good is a Hyundai Santa Fe off road?

I am thinking of buying a new Hyundai Santa Fe, mostly I'll be driving it in the city, but sometimes I may take it on the beach or in the desert (no crazy rides though...just sightseeing).
Do you think it'll be fine for that purpose? I heard it's not that good off road, and I just don't want to take the chance of being stuck in the middle of nowhere with it...

It's not too good at all. Avoid sabka and soft sand though and you should get away with it!

mmh oh no.... as I expected...
Anybody out there more positive about the Santa Fe ?
Otherwise, which other suv 4x4 would you recommend... on the same price range?

I assuming these posters do not own one. I have used it off road and it is fine. Look .. you are not spending on a Landcruiser so do not expect one but they are good value for money and I have been fine in the dunes when a Toyota was stuck.. all about tyre pressures .. go as low as you can.

It's not bad and more than good enough for the Desert.
