2017 Hyundai Santa Fe value

By the DealScan team · Updated 2026-07-11

Quick answer

A 2017 Hyundai Santa Fe in good condition with average mileage (about 112,500 miles) is worth roughly $12,350 in a private-party sale — a fair range of $11,350 to $13,350, or about $14,200 at a dealer. Note: 2017 is a flagged year for this model (2010–2019 (undocumented Theta II)) — Rod-bearing failure and fire recalls are the defining risk. Without campaign paperwork you are buying a lottery ticket. Expect to pay at the lower end and budget for that risk.
