There are three hitches compatible with your Santa Fe XL. All three hitches have a capacity that meets or exceeds the towing capacity of your vehicle, so capacity isn't an issue.
The Curt Class III, part # C13153 is constructed of square tubing. The receiver opening and the entire crosstube would be visible from the rear of the vehicle.
The Hidden Hitch # 87637 and the Draw-Tite # 75776 are identical. They are made by the same parent company, have the same capacities and would install in exactly the same manner. They are constructed of round tubing that many folks find more pleasing to the eye. The receiver opening and a portion of the crosstube on either side of the receiver would be visible from the rear, but the rest of the crosstube would be concealed by the bumper.
If you're looking for the most inexpensive hitch, you can go with the Curt model without sacrificing anything.
