Limited to just 500 units, Hyundai dealers across Canada will begin accepting requests for the Santa Fe NHL Edition now.
As the Official Automotive Partner of the NHL and NHLPA in Canada, Hyundai Canada released pricing and more information for the 2024 Santa Fe Hybrid NHL Edition SUV.
This made-for-Canada variant of the all-new Santa Fe has a starting M.S.R.P. of $56,998, and through its partnership with rookie superstar, Connor Bedard, Hyundai will provide each customer who purchases one of the 500 units with a signed jersey from the hockey phenom currently in his rookie year.
In collaboration with Bedard, Hyundai Canada will also donate $500 U.S. for every unit sold to the Chicago Blackhawks Foundation. As the official charitable arm of the club, the Chicago Blackhawks Foundation works to create a healthier, smarter, and more secure world for children and families in its local area.
Involvement with the NHL
“As our involvement with the National Hockey League and the National Hockey League Players’ Association grows, it’s important that we stay true to the commitment we made to hockey in the first place, and that is supporting the game at a grassroots level,” says Christine Smith, Director of Marketing at Hyundai Auto Canada. “We are proud to be part of Connor’s journey as he takes the League by storm, and that means supporting his local NHL community in a way we know well at Hyundai—investing in youth and supporting local families and drivers of hockey to nurture talent wherever it may be.”
Customers interested in securing this exclusive model are encouraged to contact their local dealer.
“The partnership with the NHL and NHLPA has opened up a world of opportunity for us to add a personal and fun vehicle offering to Canadian customers,” says Steve Flamand, Director of National Sales and Digital Strategy at Hyundai Auto Canada. “The reaction to the Santa Fe Hybrid NHL Edition so far has been tremendous. We’re excited to help Canadians show their team pride, giving them that feeling of fandom every time they get behind the wheel.”

2024 Hyundai Santa Fe
The fifth and new generation of Hyundai Santa Fe stands out for its robust and adventurous design. The large opening of its tailgate allows increased versatility and a longer wheelbase compared to the previous generation provides generous interior space, with a three-row seating configuration now fitted as standard.
Santa Fe’s all-new interior complements the exterior design language by emphasizing horizontal and vertical design elements. Reflecting the exterior design language, an H-shaped design motif is further applied to the upper instrument panel and air vents, enhancing a sense of openness and cohesive design balance.
The 2024 Santa Fe is fully equipped with an available dual wireless charging system for smartphones, a powerful USB-C terminal with a maximum charging rate of 27 watts and an available third-row USB port. In addition, an integrated UV-C sterilization compartment is available for the top of Santa Fe’s glove compartment, providing ultraviolet light-based sterilization of frequently used items, such as cell phones, wallets, glasses, and similarly sized items. Also with an available Bose 12-speaker premium sound system ensures customers enjoy a premium audio experience.
The 2024 Santa Fe is available with two powerful and efficient powertrain options. The standard powertrain is a 1.6-litre direct-injected, turbocharged hybrid (Gamma III engine family) linked with a six-speed automatic transmission, providing an estimated combined output of 231 horsepower and up to 271 lb.-ft of torque. Also available is a 2.5-litre direct-injected, turbocharged engine (Theta III engine family) mated to an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission with an estimated output of 277 horsepower @ 5,800 rpm and torque of 311 lb.-ft. @ 1,700 – 4,000 rpm.
