How much does the 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe cost?

Prices have softened 12.83% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 1,814 listings available, which gives you a solid pool to compare prices and equipment.

Is the 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe a good car?

Yes — the 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe earns a 4.85/5 user rating and an 8.17/10 expert rating. The model scores 9/10 across Technology and Safety.

Owners consistently praise its value, safety features, comfort, spacious interior, and ride quality. That lines up with its role as a value-focused crossover that sits between compact crossovers and larger midsize SUVs, so you get a useful size advantage without moving up to a bigger family hauler.

With 35.2% of listings marked as good or great deals, you have a decent chance of finding a competitively priced example.

Is the 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe reliable?

Owners rate it 4.85/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The owner feedback points to a vehicle that feels dependable in daily use, with many drivers highlighting comfort, value, and a trouble-free ownership experience. The expert evaluation also emphasizes solid value and composed driving manners, which supports the sense that this is a crossover you can count on for regular family duty.

The main long-term ownership risk for used buyers is that some owners mention occasional reliability concerns, particularly with the battery, so a careful pre-purchase inspection matters.

What should I look for when buying a used 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe?

At 72.9% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a vehicle history report and then prioritize a thorough inspection of bodywork, panel alignment, and any signs of prior repair. It also makes sense to focus on how the cabin, electronics, and safety systems function, since this model leans heavily on convenience and driver-assistance features.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base SE trim comes with 17-inch alloy wheels, high-beam assist, power heated side mirrors, LED daytime running lights, manual seats, and remote keyless entry. Higher trims add fog lights, power seating, heated front seats, push-button start, parking sensors, rear-occupant alert, dual automatic climate control, a premium audio system, full LED lighting, a panoramic sunroof, leather seating, rain-sensing wipers, memory settings, heated rear seats, and ventilated front seats.
• Powertrain: All trims use a 2.4-liter 4-cylinder engine with 185 horsepower and 178 pound-feet of torque, while the Limited and Ultimate can be had with a turbocharged 2.0-liter 4-cylinder making 235 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque. The base engine is described as sluggish, while the turbo is praised for strong acceleration.
• Safety package: Hyundai Smart Sense includes forward-collision avoidance, blind-spot monitoring, lane-departure warning, and adaptive cruise control that can stop and go with traffic. It also adds rear cross-path detection and Safe Exit Assist System, which helps prevent rear passengers from opening doors into traffic.
• Infotainment: The base SE gets a 7-inch touchscreen with Bluetooth, a USB port, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto. SEL and above add satellite radio, HD Radio, and BlueLink with Alexa integration, while the Ultimate upgrades to an 8-inch touchscreen, a head-up display, and wireless charging.
• Fuel efficiency: The front-wheel-drive 2.4-liter version is rated at 22 mpg city, 29 highway, and 25 combined. The AWD turbo version is rated at 19 mpg city, 24 highway, and 21 combined.

Which 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe trim should I buy?

The 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe is offered in 5 trim levels: SE, SEL, SEL Plus, Limited, and Ultimate.

Here's the short version:

• SE: This is the value pick if you want the lowest entry price and still want a lot of standard equipment, including Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and the full Smart Sense safety suite.
• SEL: This trim adds useful everyday upgrades like heated front seats, push-button start, and an 8-way power driver’s seat, making it a smart step up for comfort.
• SEL Plus: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it adds 18-inch wheels, parking sensors, rear-occupant alert, dual-zone climate control, and the upgraded Infinity audio system.
• Limited: Choose this if you want a more premium feel, with full LED lighting, a panoramic sunroof, and leather seating.
• Ultimate: This is the most feature-rich choice, adding rain-sensing wipers, memory settings, heated rear seats, ventilated front seats, a head-up display, and wireless charging.

The safety package is standard across the lineup, so you do not need to move up a trim just to get the core driver-assistance features.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe?

The market looks selective rather than overheated, so you can shop with some leverage if you stay patient.

• Deal availability: 35.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 1,814 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 12.83% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 72.9% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $15,013, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe's resale value?

The current average of $15,013 sits slightly below last year's $17,223.

That decline suggests the market has already adjusted downward, which can help you buy at a more favorable point in the cycle. If you plan to sell later, the current pricing environment means your future resale value will depend heavily on condition, mileage, and equipment.

Well-kept examples with desirable features should hold up better than average because shoppers still respond to the Santa Fe's value, comfort, and safety reputation. Strong demand for clean, well-equipped listings can help support resale value over time.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.85/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe safe?

The 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe earns a Top Safety Pick rating from IIHS.

It earns a 9/10 safety score from our experts.

Hyundai Smart Sense is the standard driver-assistance suite, and it includes forward-collision avoidance, blind-spot monitoring, lane-departure warning, adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go capability, rear cross-path detection, and Safe Exit Assist System. That gives you a broad set of active safety features without needing to move up the lineup for the core package.

Should I buy a 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2019 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2019 if:

• 35.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 72.9% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 12.83% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.85/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It adds a modern two-row layout, strong value, and standard Smart Sense safety tech.

Consider the 2018 if:

• At $14,431, the 2018 costs less than the current year's $15,013 average.
• It is a bargain-focused, safe, roomy three-row family crossover.

Consider the 2020 if:

• At $16,810, the 2020 costs more than the current year's $15,013 average.
• It simplifies the lineup and adds useful updates like a rear-seat reminder and Blind-Spot View Monitor.

The bottom line: If you want the best mix of price, modern features, and safety, the 2019 is the sweet spot. If your budget is tighter, the 2018 can save you money, while the 2020 makes sense if you want the newer updates and are willing to pay more.
