Used 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe for SaleNationwide

How much does the 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe cost?

Prices have softened 11.72% compared to this time last year, making it a favourable time to shop this model year.

There are 486 listings available, which suggests you have a reasonable amount of inventory to compare.

Is the 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe a good car?

Yes — the 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe earns a 5/5 user rating and an 8.2/10 expert rating. The model scores 9/10 across Look and feel, Form and function, and Technology.

The Santa Fe’s appeal is rooted in its fully redesigned look, longer wheelbase, standard third-row seats, and “terrace” approach to passenger and cargo space. It also stands out for its brash styling and impressive technology, which makes it a strong fit if you want a family SUV that feels fresh rather than conventional.

The trade-offs are worth weighing: the third row is cramped, performance is pedestrian, and top trims can get expensive. Even so, the Santa Fe’s combination of style, space, and tech makes it a compelling choice if those priorities matter more than outright driving excitement.

With 35.4% of listings marked as good or great deals, there are still some attractive opportunities in the market.

Is the 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe reliable?

Owners rate it 5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The Santa Fe is presented as a substantial redesign rather than a simple refresh, and Hyundai’s vehicles typically fare well in safety evaluations. Its standard all-wheel drive and broad feature set also point to a well-rounded ownership experience, while the expert road test found few flaws in the loaded version’s safety tech.

The powertrain lineup includes a hybrid entry point in Canada and a gas turbo-four for upper trims, giving you flexibility depending on how you plan to use the vehicle. The gas model is rated at 12.1 L/100 km city, 8.8 highway, and 10.6 combined, while the hybrid is rated at 6.8 city, 6.9 highway, and 6.9 combined.

Hyundai also includes a maintenance perk in the broader ownership experience: the first scheduled maintenance visit is on the house.

For used buyers, the main long-term risk is that higher-trim complexity and premium features can raise repair and ownership costs if anything goes wrong.

What should I look for when buying a used 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe?

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base Preferred trim includes the core safety and convenience equipment, while higher trims add more premium features such as a 360-degree camera system, blind-spot view monitor, parking sensors, remote automatic parking, and a widescreen head-up display. If you want the strongest value, the Preferred trim with the Trend package is the one to focus on.
• Powertrain: In Canada, the hybrid powertrain is the entry-level choice on Preferred models, while other trims use a 2.5-litre turbocharged four-cylinder with 277 horsepower and 311 pound-feet of torque. The gas model uses an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, and all-wheel drive is standard.
• Safety package: The base Preferred trim includes a reversing camera, stop-and-go adaptive cruise control, forward collision-avoidance assist, intersection assist, pedestrian and cyclist detection, blind-spot monitors, rear cross-traffic alert with automatic emergency braking, safe-exit assist, lane-keep assist, lane-following assist, driver-attention monitoring with hands-off alert, and a rear-occupant reminder system. Higher trims add more advanced camera and parking features.
• Infotainment: The cabin centres on a curved panoramic display, and the system includes wireless Apple CarPlay, wireless Android Auto, a 12-speaker Bose stereo, dynamic voice recognition, and six USB ports. The Preferred trim uses a simpler 12.3-inch touchscreen.
• Fuel efficiency: The hybrid is rated at 6.8 L/100 km city, 6.9 highway, and 6.9 combined. The gas powertrain is rated at 12.1 city, 8.8 highway, and 10.6 combined, while the XRT is rated at 12.2 city, 9.1 highway, and 10.8 combined.

Which 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe trim should I buy?

The 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe is offered in 4 trim levels: Preferred, Luxury, Ultimate Calligraphy, and XRT.

Here's the short version:

• Preferred: This is the trim to target if you want the strongest value, especially with the Trend package. It adds desirable equipment such as 20-inch alloy wheels, leatherette upholstery, a dual-pane power sunroof, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, a wireless charging pad, third-row USB ports, Hyundai Digital Key, and upgraded ultrasonic rear occupant alert.
• Luxury: This trim steps up to a 360-degree camera system, blind-spot view monitor, rain-sensing windshield wipers, parking sensors, reverse parking collision assist, and remote automatic parking. It suits you if you want a more upscale daily driver without going all the way to the top trim.
• Ultimate Calligraphy: This is the most luxurious choice, with a widescreen head-up display and upgraded blind-spot and forward collision avoidance systems. It makes sense if you want the most premium Santa Fe experience and are comfortable paying for it.
• XRT: This is the rugged-looking choice, with dark chrome and black cladding and trim, plus off-road modes and settings. It also gets extra ground clearance and all-terrain tires, so it suits you best if you want the Santa Fe’s most adventurous character.

The safety package is especially generous on the base trim, while higher trims add more advanced camera, parking, and driver-assistance features.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop carefully and still find worthwhile listings.

• Deal availability: 35.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 486 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 11.72% compared with last year.

If you find a listing below $40,604 CAD, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe's resale value?

The current average of $40,604 CAD sits slightly below last year's $45,994 CAD.

That softer pricing can be good news if you’re buying now, but it also means future sellers may face more competition if the market stays well supplied. The Santa Fe’s broad appeal, strong technology, and distinctive redesign should help support demand, especially for well-equipped examples. Still, top trims may be harder to recoup fully because they start from a higher purchase price.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe safe?

The 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe has not yet been crash-tested by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) or National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

It earns an 8/10 safety score from our experts.

The base Preferred trim includes a reversing camera, stop-and-go adaptive cruise control, forward collision-avoidance assist, intersection assist, pedestrian and cyclist detection, blind-spot monitors, rear cross-traffic alert with automatic emergency braking, safe-exit assist, lane-keep assist, lane-following assist, driver-attention monitoring with hands-off alert, and a rear-occupant reminder system. Higher trims add an upgraded rear-occupant reminder system, forward-attention warning, side-view mirrors with turn signals, a 360-degree camera system, blind-spot view monitor, parking sensors, reverse parking collision assist, remote automatic parking, a widescreen head-up display, and upgraded blind-spot and forward collision avoidance systems.

One notable safety feature is driver monitoring across the lineup, which uses an infrared camera and steering-wheel sensors to track alertness and hand placement. If the system senses you are not paying attention or are incapacitated, it can escalate warnings and bring the vehicle to a stop while notifying authorities of a potential emergency.

Should I buy a 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2024 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2024 if:

• 35.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 11.72% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The 2024 brings a full redesign with bold styling, standard third-row seating, and standout technology.

Consider the 2023 if:

• At $29,638 CAD, the 2023 costs less than the current year's $40,604 CAD average.
• It offers strong value, standard safety features, and easy-to-use technology.

Consider the 2025 if:

• At $43,721 CAD, the 2025 costs more than the current year's $40,604 CAD average.
• It adds even more interior space and family-friendly features.

The bottom line: If you want the freshest design and the strongest mix of style, space, and technology, the 2024 is the best path. If price matters most, the 2023 is the smarter budget-friendly alternative.
