2024 Hyundai Santa Fe vs 2025 Toyota Camry
Which is bigger, the 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe or 2025 Toyota Camry?
Key dimensions: length, width, height
With just 8.5 cm separating them, there’s little to distinguish the 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe and the 2025 Toyota Camry in terms of overall length. The 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe is significantly wider, which may offer more shoulder room inside but could make tight parking garages more challenging. There is a staggering 33.5 cm between their rooflines, with the 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe looming high above the 2025 Toyota Camry. The 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe sits 4 cm higher off the ground than the 2025 Toyota Camry, providing a helpful extra margin of safety when driving over gravel or light debris. There's a negligible 0.9 cm gap in wheelbase, meaning both the 2025 Toyota Camry and 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe should handle motorway cruising similarly.

Parking
Will the 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe or 2025 Toyota Camry fit in a standard parking space?
2024 Hyundai Santa Fe parking fit score
DriveSize compares the car's width and length with typical parking-space sizes by region.
Vehicle dimensions are rounded up and available side or length clearance is rounded down.
Side clearance is based on body width where available; real spaces can vary because of mirrors, walls, pillars, kerbs, bay markings, and nearby cars.
For an average USA / Canada space: body side clearance is 42.5 cm per side, and length clearance is 33.5 cm at each end.
