Across the model’s history, it has also earned praise for a smooth ride and practical cabin space.

For used buyers, long-term ownership risk is generally manageable, but you should still check service history carefully on older examples and prioritize well-maintained vehicles.
What should I look for when buying a used Hyundai Santa Fe?
Across all model years, accident-free inventory is solid at 84.7% — always verify the vehicle history report.
| Model Year | Accident-Free % |
|---|---|
| 2026 | 94.2% |
| 2025 | 93.3% |
| 2024 | 90.4% |
| 2023 | 88.4% |
| 2022 | 87% |
| 2021 | 78.7% |
| 2020 | 75.1% |
| 2019 | 72.7% |
| 2018 | 68.7% |
| 2017 | 59.6% |
| 2016 | 56.4% |
| 2015 | 55.6% |
| 2014 | 54.5% |
Older model years carry meaningfully higher accident rates, so always verify the vehicle history report on pre-2020 models.
Key things to evaluate:
- Safety package: Highway Driving Assist on higher trim levels, including the XRT test car
- Infotainment: a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
- Fuel efficiency: The Santa Fe XRT isn’t as aerodynamic as other trim levels, so the EPA fuel economy rating drops from 23 mpg combined for other AWD models to 21 mpg for the XRT. The Santa Fe Hybrid, in contrast, is rated at 34 mpg combined with AWD.
Which Hyundai Santa Fe trim should I buy?
The 2026 Hyundai Santa Fe offers these trims:
- SE: Entry trim with a 2.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a strong value focus.
- SEL: Adds more equipment while keeping the same core powertrain and tech setup, making it a sensible step up for shoppers who want more features without moving too far up the lineup.
- XRT: The rugged choice with standard all-wheel drive, all-terrain tires, a raised suspension with 1.3 inches of extra ground clearance, greater approach, breakover, and departure angles, and off-road drive modes; best if you want the most adventurous version.
- Limited: Adds the larger 12.3-inch display, a Bose premium audio system, and a more upscale feel for buyers who want more comfort and tech.
- Calligraphy: The luxury-leaning trim with the most premium presentation and the highest price in the lineup.
What Hyundai Santa Fe do most buyers choose?
The Hyundai Santa Fe years with the most listings are 2024, 2023, and 2022.

| 2026 | 2,932 | 33.9% |
| 2021 | 2,520 | 33.3% |
Those higher-volume years tend to be popular because they offer a strong mix of availability, pricing, and feature content. When more listings are on the market, you usually get more choices in color, trim, mileage, and condition.
What is the Hyundai Santa Fe's resale value?
| Model Year | Current Avg. Price | Year-Over-Year Change |

| 2014 | $9,292 | +5.84% |
Most model years are down year over year, which is good news if you’re shopping used because prices have generally softened. A few years are holding value better than the rest, and one recent year is essentially flat, so the market is not moving in just one direction.
The 2023 model year is holding steady, with prices close to flat year-over-year.
The 2014, 2023, and 2021 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.

Hyundai equips the Santa Fe with Highway Driving Assist on higher trim levels, including the XRT test car.
For the safest used buy, the 2020 and 2022 models both post 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:
- Price trend: The 2025 model is at −11.55% versus a year ago, and the 2024 model is at −10.09%.
- Deal availability: The 2025 model has 33.5% good and great deals, and the 2024 model has 34.5%.
- Sweet-spot year: The 2024 model has the most listings at a current average price of $30,430. The Hyundai Santa Fe offers a roomy, family-friendly cabin with a distinctive design and a strong mix of practicality and features.
Consider waiting if:
- Powertrain/efficiency: A standard 2.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine produces 277 horsepower at 5,800 rpm and 311 pound-feet of torque at 4,000 rpm, and the Santa Fe Hybrid is rated at 34 mpg combined with AWD.
- Tech: Standard tech highlights include wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, SiriusXM satellite radio with a free trial subscription, and Bluelink+ connected services.
- Safety: Hyundai equips the Santa Fe with a long list of standard safety features, plus a junction turning detection system, front and rear parking sensors, and safe-exit assist.
- Starting price: Hyundai sells the 2026 Santa Fe in SE, SEL, XRT, Limited, and Calligraphy trim levels, with prices ranging from $36,650 to $49,400, including the $1,600 destination charge.
If you're buying used today, the 2024 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.

It was the Calligraphy trim and so it had every safety and convenience feature. Great value for the price

We bought this car primarily because of the value, in terms of what we get for the money. We looked at many other manufacturers like Honda, Toyota, Subaru, Kia, Nissan and the Hyundai Santa Fe, in the Calligraphy trim level had the most and best features for the price.

Reviewed a 2025 Hyundai Ultimate Calligraphy AWD on Aug 2, 2025
I absolutely love how the outside of them look. The lights on the back do look a little funny, but I think that the inside and features that it comes with makes up for that.

The car is a great upgrade from years before. The third row is very nice and a great size for teenagers. The ride is smooth and quiet.

Hyundai Santa Fe test drive
overall
Form follows function with the 2026 Hyundai Santa Fe.
The Hyundai Santa Fe is a midsize, three-row SUV that sits at the smaller end of the segment, while the Hyundai Palisade lives among the larger players in the class. Nevertheless, thanks to its boxy shape and thoughtfully crafted interior, shoppers might decide bigger isn’t necessarily better. The 2026 Santa Fe gets a new transmission, added safety features, and minor equipment and packaging updates. The Santa Fe Hybrid returns, too, but we’ll cover that in a separate review.
Verdict: Polarizing design aside, the 2026 Hyundai Santa Fe is a brilliant, family-friendly crossover SUV. We tested the XRT version, which trades fuel economy for off-road capability, so buyers who don’t need that should pick a different trim level.
