Today at the Montréal Auto Show, with the help of NHL Alumni and Montréal Canadiens icon Yvan Cournoyer, Hyundai Canada announced the addition of a Canadian-exclusive NHL Edition for its all-new 2024 Santa Fe.

'At Hyundai Canada, we are very proud to be the official automotive partner of the NHL, National Hockey League Player's Association (NHLPA), and NHL Alumni Association (NHLAA). Since the beginning of this partnership in 2022, we have strengthened our connection to hockey by securing a partnership with up-and-coming superstar, Connor Bedard, the first overall pick to the Chicago Blackhawks in the 2023 NHL Entry Draft,' says Christine Smith, director of marketing at Hyundai Auto Canada. 'Today, we are proud to bring Hyundai's commitment to hockey and our partnership with the NHL one step closer to our customers, by allowing them to personalize the all-new Santa Fe with their favourite team's logos.'

'As a lifelong fan of hockey myself, I am looking forward to offering Hyundai customers a version of one of our core models that brings our partnership with the NHL directly to their driveways,' says Steve Flamand, director of product, corporate and digital strategy at Hyundai Auto Canada. 'True fans of professional hockey teams appreciate new ways of showing their support. We hope hockey drivers across Canada – and the passengers – will enjoy representing their loyalty to their favourite team every time they go for a ride in the Santa Fe NHL Edition.'

After its first public appearance at the Montréal International Auto Show from January 19-27, the Hyundai Santa Fe NHL Edition will be presented at the 2024 Hyundai NHL Fan Fair™ at the Metro Toronto Convention Center South Building in Toronto from February 1-4 during the 2024 NHL All-Star Weekend and at the Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto from February 16-25.

About the 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe

The new generation Hyundai Santa Fe stands out for its robust and adventurous design as well as for the large opening of its tailgate, allowing increased versatility. Thanks to a longer wheelbase compared to the previous generation, a three-row seating configuration is fitted as standard.

Santa Fe's all-new interior complements the exterior themes by emphasizing horizontal and vertical design elements matching 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.

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 provides an estimated combined engine and motor output of 232 horsepower and maximum torque of 271 lb.-ft. 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.

Besides the NHL Edition exclusive Creamy White Matte, the 2024 Santa Fe is available in 7 exterior colours in Canada, including Phantom Black; Serenity White Pearl; Earthy Brass Matte; Hampton Gray; Terracotta Orange; Atlantis Blue and Rockwood Green Pearl.
