What Hyundai Santa Fe do most buyers choose?

The Hyundai Santa Fe years with the most listings are 2020, 2024, and 2023.

These higher-volume years tend to be popular because they give you more inventory to compare, which can make it easier to find the right trim, price, and condition. They also often sit in the sweet spot between newer features and more accessible pricing.

What is the Hyundai Santa Fe's resale value?

The table shows broad downward movement across the Santa Fe lineup, which can work in your favour if you are shopping used. The declines are double-digit across every listed year, so buyers are seeing meaningful price relief rather than small adjustments. That makes the Santa Fe especially attractive if you want newer features without paying new-vehicle pricing.

The 2024, 2021, and 2017 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.

Is the Hyundai Santa Fe safe?

• 2025: 7/10

• 2020: 10/10

The latest Santa Fe includes adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go, blind spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, front and rear parking sensors, forward collision avoidance assist with pedestrian, cyclist, and junction turning detection, lane keeping and lane following assist, a driver attention monitor, and safe exit assist.

For the safest used buy, the 2020 model posts the highest confirmed score of 10/10.

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

Buy now if:

• Deal availability: The 2024 model has 32.8% good and great deals.
• Sweet-spot year: The 2020 model has the most listings at a current average price of $20,183 CAD. The Hyundai Santa Fe offers a practical, family-friendly cabin with strong everyday versatility.

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, while the Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid 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 the 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.
