The Hyundai Santa Fe is the mid-size family SUV that undercuts the Japanese establishment without feeling like a compromise. We have 4 listed in the UAE.
What to look over on a used Hyundai Santa Fe
Every used Hyundai Santa Fe we list comes with its CarSwitch inspection report. Go to the mechanical section first.
Our closed UAE sales put a 2022 Hyundai Santa Fe at about AED 77,000, a 2021 at AED 67,000, a 2020 at AED 46,000 and a 2015 at AED 22,000. Choosing used over a new Santa Fe saves roughly 22%. Listings run from AED 56,000 to AED 99,995.
Mechanical wear is the thing to price in. A fault in the engine, gearbox, suspension or steering shows on 32% of the Hyundai Santa Fes we inspect in the UAE, against the 21% we would expect for SUVs of the same age and mileage here — mostly suspension and bushes on cars that have covered serious distance, which is what a family SUV does. The Nissan X-Trail is the cleaner car on electrics, with a fault on 2% against the 11% expected for its class.
The RAV4 is the safer, more frugal choice; the Santa Fe gives you more space and a quieter cabin. The Hyundai Tucson is the smaller sibling and the right call if the third row was never the point.
2021 to 2023. The fourth-generation car arrived for 2019 and was heavily reworked for 2021, when it gained the T-shaped daytime running lights, a new eight-speed automatic and a much better interior. The 2024 car is a complete change of direction, boxy and far larger. The 2013 to 2018 generation is cheap and honest but a long way behind on cabin design.
Slightly below the class — about 47% of its value after five years, against roughly 51% for SUVs it sits against. The Toyota RAV4 is stronger at 56% and the X-Trail at 54%, so the Santa Fe's case rests on being the more comfortable, better-equipped car for the money rather than the safest place to park it.
