5 Reasons the 2025 Hyundai Tucson and Santa Fe Hybrid Leads Canadian Sales
April 14 2025,
The numbers don't lie—Hyundai's hybrid SUVs are taking Canada by storm. The 2025 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid has achieved an impressive 38.6% sales growth compared to last year, while the Santa Fe Hybrid has shown extraordinary momentum with a staggering 16,775% increase. As electrified vehicles now account for 29% of Hyundai's total sales, these two models lead the way in this transformation. Here's why Canadian drivers are making these hybrid SUVs their vehicles of choice.
Superior Fuel Efficiency Without Compromise
Both the 2025 Tucson and Santa Fe Hybrid deliver exceptional fuel economy without sacrificing the performance Canadian drivers need. The Tucson Hybrid pairs its Smartstream 1.6L Turbo GDI engine with an electric motor for responsive acceleration and reduced fuel consumption. Similarly, the Santa Fe Hybrid offers impressive efficiency at 6.9L/100km combined while still delivering 231 horsepower.
The standard HTRAC All-Wheel Drive system on both models ensures you maintain confidence in all weather conditions—from summer heat to winter snow. With Drive Mode Select featuring specialized terrain modes for snow, mud, and sand, these hybrids prove that efficiency and capability can coexist perfectly.
Spacious Versatility for Every Lifestyle
The 2025 Tucson Hybrid provides ample space for five passengers with flexible cargo options thanks to its 60/40 split-folding rear seats. For larger families, the Santa Fe Hybrid steps up with available 7-passenger seating, making it one of the few hybrid SUVs that can accommodate larger households.
Both models feature thoughtfully designed interiors with premium materials ranging from durable cloth to luxurious leather options. The Santa Fe Hybrid also offers captain's chairs in its Ultimate Calligraphy trim for those seeking a more premium experience. This versatility allows you to configure your vehicle based on your specific needs—whether transporting people, cargo, or both.
Advanced Technology That Simplifies Your Drive
The technology integration in both the Tucson and Santa Fe Hybrid enhances every journey. Standard 12.3" infotainment touchscreens provide intuitive access to vehicle functions and entertainment options, while higher trims feature matching 12.3" digital instrument clusters that present customizable information displays.
Wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay come standard, ensuring seamless smartphone integration without cables. Available features like wireless charging pads, premium Bose audio systems, and dual or tri-zone climate control create an environment of comfort and convenience. The Santa Fe Hybrid Ultimate Calligraphy even offers advanced features like a fingerprint recognition system and head-up display that puts vital information directly in your line of sight.
Safety Features That Provide Peace of Mind
Both hybrid SUVs come equipped with Hyundai's comprehensive safety suite. Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist, Lane Keeping Assist, and Blind-Spot Collision Warning systems act as additional eyes on the road. The available Highway Driving Assist maintains a set distance from vehicles ahead while helping keep you centered in your lane.
The Santa Fe Hybrid Ultimate Calligraphy adds even more advanced safety with Forward Attention Warning and Remote Smart Parking Assist. These features not only protect you and your passengers but also reduce driving stress on long journeys or in challenging traffic conditions. With these advanced safety systems, you're empowered to drive with greater confidence and awareness.
Exceptional Value That Grows Over Time
The 2025 Tucson and Santa Fe Hybrid models deliver immediate value through fuel savings, but their advantages extend much further. Both vehicles maintain Hyundai's reputation for reliability, backed by one of the industry's best warranty programs.
Available in multiple trim levels with various feature packages, both models allow you to select the exact combination of features that match your needs and budget. The initial premium for hybrid technology quickly pays dividends through reduced fuel costs, while potentially stronger resale values protect your investment over time.
