70 plate, 2x2. The label in the door says to inflate to 60 for towing. We have never bothered before, but went up to 40. So much conflicting advice online, any Santa Fe owners who can point me in the right direction please?

Our 2016 4wd Santa Fe has tp33 all round according to the door sticker.
No difference for towing.Maybe because it is 4x4. 60psi seems high.
I didn't know they did 2x2 models. We are considering a new naughty diesel awd to replace ours.
I prefer to tow with awd having done for years.

Ours is 2.2 diesel. Yours is the later model than ours, my brother in law has one but doesn't tow with it.The info is also in the rather thick handbook!

The handbook states "refer to the label in the door". At least I can't find any more info.

60 is way to high for a car tyre, that is the normal caravan (single axle) tyre pressure) even on our 4x4 the rear tyres are only 35 when towing

Santa Fe, I keep pressures at 35 psi all year round whether solo or towing. In 50 years of caravanning I have never ever increased tyre pressures on the many motors I have towed with.

Same here, but I run at 35psi as I've found that is better for tyre wear. Over 40k on the original tyres and still 5+ mm left on them with evan wear across them.
When towing I add 2psi to the rear as I find this more stable.

60psi is way too high!
Do you have a "get you home" spare as that may have a 60psi inflation pressure?

As for towing I'd advise an extra 2-4 psi on the rear and see how the car & caravan handles. I have a 2016 2.2 diesel Santa Fe.

Its all about the weight on axles and speed used, what tyrepressure you need.
But for cars nowadays often 35 or 36psi is recomended, the maxloadpressure of a standard load tyre.
So not calculated for weight and speed.
If they would calculate it probably would come below 30 psi, for Max Permissable Axle Weight. Even with my extra tight system.

So then when towing speed is lower, max 75mph, wich you wont go over for even a minute. Then higher weight on rear axle, but a little less on front axle.
Then because of the lower speed then 160kmph/99mph more weight allowed before tyre overheats, wich is main goal of tyrepressure determination.

So 35 psi most likely good, but need to calculate it to be certain.

If your car has a space saver spare,the highp ressure s5ated could be for that- if they can be used for towing.
Ours has a full size alloy spare, looking at the spec of a 2023 they don't have a spare. Just a repair kit,like our Mini!
Our neighbour has a Tucson hybrid, she bought a space saver spare and tool for it online.

On both my 14 reg and now the 21 reg Santa Fes, I keep the tyre pressures the same, whether solo or towing.
