• Sweet-spot year: The 2020 model has the most listings at a current average price of $20,143 CAD. The Hyundai Santa Fe offers a practical, family-friendly cabin with useful space and a well-rounded everyday character.

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: Every version of the gas-powered Santa Fe gets a 12.3-inch touchscreen and a digital gauge cluster of the same size, plus standard wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
• Safety: The latest model adds blind spot avoidance that can apply the brakes if you are about to change lanes into another vehicle, along with the Blind View Monitor on the top two trims.
• 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.
