What Hyundai Santa Fe do most buyers choose?

Should I buy a used Hyundai Santa Fe now or wait for the next model?

Buy now if:

• Price trend: The 2025 model is at −12.46% versus a year ago, and the 2024 model is at −11.72%.
• Deal availability: The 2024 model has 35.4% good and great deals.
• Sweet-spot year: The 2020 model has the most listings at a current average price of $20,116 CAD. The Hyundai Santa Fe offers a roomy, family-friendly cabin with useful space and a strong everyday comfort focus.

Consider waiting if:

• Powertrain/efficiency: Our test Santa Fe had the standard 2.5-litre turbocharged engine with 277 horsepower and 311 pound-feet of torque. The Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid, classed as a separate model, combines a 1.6-litre four-cylinder engine with an electric motor for a total of 231 hp and 271 lb-ft of torque.
• Tech: In Canada, every version of the gas-powered Santa Fe gets a 12.3-inch touchscreen for infotainment duties and a digital gauge cluster of the same size, and standard wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are included.
• Safety: The top trim gets a blind spot avoidance feature that will apply the brakes if it thinks you’re about to change lanes into another vehicle, and the top two trims get the Blind View Monitor that displays a video feed of your blind spot directly in the gauge cluster when signalling.
• Starting price: For the 2025 model year, the MSRP for the gas-only Santa Fe XRT starts at $51,039 CAD.

If you're buying used today, the 2020 model year offers the best mix of value and availability. If you want the latest tech and features, it may be worth waiting for the next model year's inventory to build up.
