Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid Depreciation & Resale Value

Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid keeps an estimated 61% of its original MSRP after 5 years — #189 of 530 cars VINdown tracks. See the full depreciation curve.

Per VINdown's modeling, the Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid retains an estimated 61% of its original MSRP after five years, ranking #189 of 530 cars we track. That is 4 points above the 58% five-year average for SUV in its class, so it holds value better than most rivals.

Most of the loss lands early: the Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid sheds about 9% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $36,400 it falls to around $22,349 by year five — a five-year loss near $14,051, about $7.70 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 2, a lightly-used Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid bought at 2 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
