Kanaan began to compete in the Champ Car Championship Series in 1998 for Tasman Motorsports in the No. 31 LCI International Reynard 98i-Honda HRK. Kanaan made his debut at the season-opening Marlboro Grand Prix of Miami Presented by Toyota at Homestead Motorsports Complex. In the race Kanaan started in 18th place and finished in 29th (last) place due to a crash after 29 laps. Kanaan later achieved a pair of third-place finishes at the Honda Grand Prix of Monterey at Laguna Seca Raceway and the Texaco Grand Prix of Houston on the Streets of Houston.

For 2000, Kanaan began to drive for Mo Nunn Racing in the No. 55 Hollywood Cigarettes Reyanard 2Ki-Ilmor-Mercedes-Benz IC108F. The season was a struggle for Kanaan as he could only get a best finish of a trio of eighth-place finishes at the Bosch Spark Plug Grand Prix Presented by Toyota at Nazareth Speedway, the Motorola 220 at Road America and the Honda Indy 300 on the Surfers Paradise Street Circuit. At the Tenneco Automotive Grand Prix of Detroit at Belle Isle State Park, Kanaan was injured prior to the race and missed the race and the three races following it. Kanaan's best start of the season was a third place at the Target Grand Prix Presented by Energizer at Chicago Motor Speedway. Kanaan finished the season ranked in 19th place in points with 24 points.

In 2001, Kanaan returned with Mo Nunn Racing to drive the No. 55 Hollywood Cigarettes Reynard 01i-Honda HR-1. Kanaan got his first podium since winning at Michigan in 1999 when he got a third-place finish at the Firestone Firehawk 500 at Twin Ring Motegi. Kanaan later qualified on the pole position at the Target Grand Prix Presented by Energizer at Chicago Motor Speedway. Kanaan finished in ninth place in points with 93 points.

Kanaan returned with Mo Nunn Racing in 2002 to originally drive the No. 10 Pioneer Corporation/WorldCom Reynard 02i-Honda HR-2. Kanaan's highlight of the first three races of the season was a second place start at the Bridgestone Potenza 500 at Twin Ring Motegi. Kanaan's best finish in these races was a 15th-place finish at Motegi. Following Motegi, at the Miller Lite 250 at the Milwaukee Mile, Kanaan switched chassis types to a Lola B02/00.

Kanaan competed in the Indy Racing League in 2002 for Mo Nunn Racing in the No. 17 Hollywood Cigarettes-sponsored G-Force GF05-Chevrolet V8 in one-off race at the Indianapolis 500. Kanaan was the highest-starting rookie in the race with a fifth-place starting position. In the race, Kanaan led for 23 laps when on lap 90 both Jimmy Vasser and Bruno Junqueira had mechanical problems and slowed on the course. An oil leak was on the track and was not caught by Indy Racing League officials and Kanaan crashed, finishing 28th. Kanaan finished 50th in points with two points.

In 2003, Kanaan drove for Andretti Green Racing in the No. 11 7-Eleven-sponsored Dallara IR03-Ilmor-Honda Indy V8 HI3R. Kanaan got consecutive pole positions at the Toyota Indy 300 at Homestead-Miami Speedway, finishing fourth, and the Purex Dial Indy 200 at Phoenix International Raceway, where he would go on to win his second Indy car race after leading for 79 laps. Kanaan then led the point standings after Phoenix. At the Indy Japan 300 at Twin Ring Motegi Kanaan was involved in a crash with Scott Dixon on lap 178 and finished 14th. There was a question whether Kanaan would be able to compete in the Indianapolis 500. Kanaan was able to participate and qualified 2nd and led for two laps, eventually finishing 3rd behind countrymen and Marlboro Team Penske teammates Gil de Ferran and Hélio Castroneves. Kanaan regained the points lead and held on for the next eight races, with the exception of the Belterra Casino Indy 300 at Kentucky Speedway where he dropped to second-place, based on consistent finishes. Following an 18th-place finish at the Firestone Indy 225 at Nazareth Speedway Kanaan dropped to 3rd in points.

The car Kanaan used to win the 2004 championship at the Honda Collection Hall

In 2004 Kanaan returned with Andretti Green Racing to drive the No. 11 7-Eleven Dallara IR03-Ilmor-Honda Indy V8 HI4R. At the season-opening Toyota Indy 300 at Homestead-Miami Speedway, Kanaan started and finished eighth. At the second race of the season, the Copper World Indy 200 at Phoenix International Raceway, Kanaan started second and led for 191 of 200 laps to win. Kanaan also took the points lead. At the Indianapolis 500, Kanaan qualified in fifth-place. In the race, Kanaan led for 28 laps and was battling with teammate and friend Dan Wheldon and Buddy Rice. Kanaan was running second to Rice on lap 174 when the caution came out for rain. The race was then stopped permanently on lap 180 with Kanaan in third. Kanaan went on to win both the Bombardier 500 at Texas Motor Speedway and the Firestone Indy 200 at Nashville Superspeedway. Kanaan also qualified on the pole position at the Michigan Indy 400 at Michigan International Speedway and the Honda Indy 225 at Pikes Peak International Raceway. Kanaan clinched the championship with a 2nd-place finish at the Toyota Indy 400 at California Speedway. Kanaan completed all 3,305 laps during the season. Kanaan scored 618 points to win the championship.

For 2005, Kanaan returned with Andretti Green Racing in the No. 11 7-Eleven-sponsored Dallara IR05-Ilmor-Honda Indy V8 HI4R. Kanaan started off the season with a third-place finish at the season-opening Toyota Indy 300 at Homestead-Miami Speedway. At the Indianapolis 500, Kanaan qualified on the pole position. In the race, Kanaan battled early with Sam Hornish, Jr. for the lead. Kanaan led for 54 laps, only to drop to an eighth-place finish in the final 50 laps of the race. Kanaan later won the Argent Mortgage Indy 300 at Kansas Speedway and the Argent Mortgage Indy Grand Prix at Infineon Raceway. Kanaan finished second in the point standings behind his teammate and friend Dan Wheldon with 548 points. In September 2005 Kanaan tested a BAR-Honda Formula One car for British American Racing at Circuito de Jerez as a reward for winning the 2004 IndyCar Series championship in a Honda powered car.

Kanaan returned with Andretti Green Racing in the No. 11 7-Eleven-sponsored Dallara IR05-Ilmor-Honda Indy V8 HI4R in 2006. The entire season would be a struggle for the entire Andretti Green team compared to previous seasons due to in part Marlboro Team Penske and Target Chip Ganassi Racing beginning to use Honda engines due to Toyota withdrawing after 2005. Kanaan's only win of the season was at the ABC Supply Company A.J. Foyt 225 at the Milwaukee Mile. Kanaan's best start of the season was a second at the Watkins Glen Indy Grand Prix presented by Tissot at Watkins Glen International. At the Indianapolis 500, Kanaan qualified fifth and in the race led for 12 laps. On lap 190 Felipe Giaffone crashed in turn 2 while Kanaan still had to make his final pit stop; as a result, he pitted under caution and dropped to fourth place. On the final lap of the race, Dan Wheldon passed Kanaan. Kanaan finished in fifth-place behind Sam Hornish, Jr., Marco Andretti, Michael Andretti and Wheldon. On 28 May 2006, Kanaan's friend Rubens Barrichello wore Kanaan's helmet livery during the Formula One Monaco Grand Prix and Kanaan wore Barrichello's helmet during the Indianapolis 500. The two of them created a charity offering financial and technical aid to institutions within the voluntary sector, the Barrichello Kanaan Institute.[1] Kanaan would have an issue with another of his long-time good friends and a former teammate from his time at Tasman Motorsports, Hélio Castroneves. Kanaan and Castroneves had developed an intense rivalry that has resulted in some hard feelings. Castroneves accused Kanaan of costing him the 2006 series championship by racing him too hard for position in the final race. Kanaan countered that he was not paid to let other people pass him for position. The two started to patch up their differences at 2007 Indianapolis 500. Kanaan finished 6th in points 384 points.

Kanaan's car on pit lane at an event during the 2007 season

Kanaan had his best season during 2007 (based on wins) in the No. 11 7-Eleven-sponsored Dallara IR5-Honda Indy V8 HI7R for Andretti Green Racing. Kanaan won his first race of the season at the Indy Japan 300 at Twin Ring Motegi. At the following race, the Kansas Lottery Indy 300 at Kansas Speedway Kanaan qualified on the pole position and dueled with eventual winner Dan Wheldon until Kanaan made contact with teammate Danica Patrick in the pit lane (Kanaan was leaving his pit stall as Patrick was entering hers just in front of Kanaan's). Kanaan finished 15th, eight laps down. At the Indianapolis 500 Kanaan won the Scott Brayton Award for showing the spirit of the late Scott Brayton, who was killed while practicing for the 1996 Indianapolis 500. Kanaan qualified 2nd and in the race he led for a race-high 83 laps. On lap 113, while under caution for a crash by Phil Giebler, the race was stopped due to rain and it began to look as if Kanaan would be declared the winner. Shortly after 6:00 p.m. the race was resumed. On lap 151 Marty Roth brought out the caution for a crash and it was becoming apparent to several teams that rain was coming and the race would end soon. Kanaan and several other cars made pit stops (mainly for tires) while several other cars that had been contending for the win, such as teammate Dario Franchitti and Scott Dixon, along with several drivers who had not been running as competitively, such as Jacques Lazier. This meant that several cars, with differences in tires and also in competitiveness, would be battling with what was expected to be only a handful of laps left. On a lap 156 restart Kanaan came up on the back of Lazier and caused him to crash in turn 4 and Kanaan to spin into the pit lane with a blown tire. On lap 163 Andretti and Wheldon made contact on the back straightaway and brought out another caution. During the caution on lap 166 the race was permanently stopped for rain with teammate and friend Franchitti winning. Kanaan was then often referred to, along with his team owner Michael Andretti, as one of the best drivers never to win the Indianapolis 500.[2] Kanaan rebounded to win the following race, the ABC Supply Company A.J. Foyt 225 at the Milwaukee Mile, after leading for 25 laps. Kanaan won again at the Firestone Indy 400 at Michigan International Speedway after Kanaan's friends Franchitti and Wheldon crashed on the back straightaway while battling for the lead on lap 144, causing Franchitti to flip and take out several other cars racing in the lead pack such as Scott Dixon, Sam Hornish, Jr., A.J. Foyt IV, Tomas Scheckter and Ed Carpenter. Kanaan then dominated the following race, the Meijer Indy 300 at Kentucky Speedway, as he qualified on the pole position and led 131 of 200 laps on his way to victory. Ironically after the race Franchitti flipped over another time due to hitting the rear end of Kosuke Matsuura's car as he crossed the finish line to complete the race (Franchitti later said that he didn't realize that the race had ended). Kanaan got his fifth win of the season at the Detroit Indy Grand Prix presented by Firestone at Belle Isle State Park. Kanaan infamously got into a heated exchange with Hornish following the Camping World Watkins Glen Grand Prix at Watkins Glen International when during the race the two made contact and as the cars were heading to pit lane Kanaan drove into Hornish's car. Hornish then came over to Kanaan's car when Hornish's father, Sam Hornish, Sr., attempted to get Hornish and Kanaan separated and also shoved Kanaan when an unknown person (some sources claim that the man was a friend of Kanaan's then-car owner Michael Andretti) came to the elder Hornish and shoved him to the ground. By this point crew members from both Team Penske (Hornish's team) and Andretti Green Racing along with Indy Racing League officials and/or safety crew members were trying to break up the fight. Michael Andretti also entered the fight, but was held back by his son and Kanaan's teammate Marco Andretti. Jaime Camara (an Indy Pro Series driver for Andretti) was also reported to have gotten involved in the fight. It was estimated that there were 15 to 20 people involved in the fight. Despite winning a season-high number of races (5) Kanaan finished 3rd in points, 576 points behind Franchitti and Dixon, who each had 4 wins and more consistent results.

In 2008 Kanaan returned with Andretti Green Racing in the No. 11 7-Eleven Dallara IR5-Honda Indy V8 HI7R. During the season Kanaan's famed 7-Eleven car began to have other companies sponsor the car such as Frank's Energy Drink (Edmonton and Detroit) and Oscar Mayer (Chicagoland). At the season-opening Gainsco Auto Insurance Indy 300 at Homestead-Miami Speedway Kanaan started 6th and led for 35 laps. On lap 193 E.J. Viso spun directly in front of Kanaan and damaged his right-front suspension. Kanaan stayed out hoping the race would finish under caution. On lap 196 the race resumed and Kanaan moved to the inside to allow the faster cars to get by. Kanaan finished 8th, two laps down. At the next race, the Honda Grand Prix of St. Petersburg at Streets of St. Petersburg, Kanaan qualified on the pole position and led for 15 laps. Kanaan eventually finished in 3rd place. Kanaan then had 5th and 2nd-place finishes at the Indy Japan 300 at Twin Ring Motegi and the RoadRunner Turbo Indy 300 at Kansas Speedway. At the Indianapolis 500 Kanaan qualified 6th (the first time Kanaan failed to qualify in the top-5 in his Indianapolis 500 career). On lap 94 Kanaan took the lead for the seventh consecutive year in as many years of competing in the Indianapolis 500. On lap 105 Scott Dixon took the lead and moments later teammate Marco Andretti attempted to pass Kanaan in turn 3 causing Kanaan to lose control of his car and brush the wall. Kanaan then collected the lapped car of Sarah Fisher, taking both out of the race. This would be the first of several incidents between Kanaan and Andretti Green Racing teammates Andretti and Danica Patrick. Kanaan rebounded to get a 3rd-place finish at the ABC Supply Company A.J. Foyt 225 at the Milwaukee Mile and a 5th-place finish at the Bombardier Learjet 550 at Texas Motor Speedway. At the Iowa Corn Indy 250 at Iowa Speedway Kanaan started 4th and led for 71 laps, only to crash after 211 laps. Kanaan dominated the following race, the SunTrust Indy Challenge at Richmond International Raceway, as he qualified on the pole position, set the fastest lap of the race, led for 166 of 300 laps and won his first (and only) win of the 2008 season. Five races later at the Rexall Edmonton Indy at Rexall Speedway Kanaan started from 27th (last) place and finished 9th. In the race Kanaan had issues with both Andretti and Patrick (ironically the two of them had also made contact during the race). Kanaan rose above the controversy to finish 3rd in points with 513 points. Kanaan also renewed with Andretti Green Racing through the 2013 season.

Kanaan returned with Andretti Green Racing for 2009 in the No. 11 7-Eleven Dallara IR5-Honda Indy V8 HI7R with additional sponsorship from Dr. Pepper, Nestlé Pure Life and Oscar Mayer. At the season-opening Honda Grand Prix of St. Petersburg at Streets of St. Petersburg Kanaan started 3rd and finished 5th. Kanaan then had 3rd-place finishes at the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach on the Streets of Long Beach and the RoadRunner Turbo Indy 300 at Kansas Speedway. Kanaan took the points lead after Kansas (the first time Kanaan led the standings since winning the championship following the 2004 Chevy 500 at Texas Motor Speedway). At the Indianapolis 500 Kanaan qualified in 6th place and in the race was running in 3rd place when the driveshaft failed, causing him to lose control of his car due to the steering being incapacitated, hitting the turn 3 wall in an impact that was 175 G's. Kanaan finished in 27th place. The race was the first time that Kanaan failed to lead the Indianapolis 500. Kanaan suffered bruised ribs in the accident. Despite the injuries Kanaan did not miss any races during the season nor did he need any relief during any race. At the following race the ABC Supply Company A.J. Foyt 225 at the Milwaukee Mile Kanaan started 3rd and led for 25 laps only to suffer an engine failure after 132 laps, finishing in 18th place. At the Rexall Edmonton Indy at Rexall Speedway Kanaan had a pit fire after completing 34 laps and finished in 21st. Kanaan's best finish after Indianapolis was a 3rd-place finish at the Meijer Indy 300 presented by Red Baron and Edy's at Kentucky Speedway. Kanaan finished 6th in points with 386 points.

In 2010 Kanaan returned to drive the No. 11 7-Eleven Dallara IR5-Honda Indy V8 HI7R with additional sponsorship from Nestlé Pure Life, Dr. Pepper Cherry and Planters. During the off-season Andretti Green Racing was reorganized as Andretti Autosport. Kanaan's best finish in the first five races of the season was a 3rd-place finish at the RoadRunner Turbo Indy 300 at Kansas Speedway. At the Indianapolis 500 Kanaan crashed during his qualifying attempt on Pole Day and in the crash Kanaan's engine was split in two pieces. Kanaan would have to qualify on Bump Day in a back up car. During practice on Bump Day Kanaan had a nearly identical crash to the Pole Day crash. The team needed to repair the car before the end of the day or Kanaan would fail to qualify for the race. At 5:23 p.m. solidly qualified for the race. Kanaan qualified in 32nd place but moved back to his original(repaired) car and started 33rd. This also meant that Kanaan's record of having always qualified on the first two rows in each of his Indianapolis 500 came to an end. In the race Kanaan had moved into 25th place when the caution came out for a crash by Davey Hamilton out of turn 2 on the backstretch. Kanaan then moved into 17th place by lap 8 when another caution came out for a crash by Bruno Junqueira. During a pit stop sequence while under caution for a crash by teammate John Andretti Kanaan improved from 12th to 4th place. Kanaan soon moved into 2nd place behind friend Dario Franchitti. In the late stages of the race Mike Conway, Justin Wilson, Hélio Castroneves and Graham Rahal stayed out in an attempt to stretch their fuel mileage to the end of the race with no more pit stops. They all had to pit and Franchitti and Kanaan moved back into 1st and 2nd place on lap 192. On lap 196 Kanaan had to make a pit stop for fuel. This caused Kanaan to drop to an 11th-place finish. Kanaan went on to win the Iowa Corn Indy 250 Presented by Pioneer at Iowa Speedway after starting 15th and leading for 62 laps. Kanaan's next best finish following Indianapolis was a 3rd-place finish at the season-ending Cafés do Brasil Indy 300 at Homestead-Miami Speedway. Kanaan finished 6th in points with 453 points. In October Kanaan was released from his contract with Andretti after sponsor 7-Eleven announced it would not return as Kanaan's primary sponsor in 2011. Kanaan won 14 races and 1 championship in 8 years with Andretti.

Kanaan originally was going to drive for de Ferran Dragon Racing, owned by Kanaan's former competitor and countryman Gil de Ferran. Just days prior to the season-opening Honda Grand Prix of St. Petersburg on the Streets of St. Petersburg the deal fell through and Kanaan was without a team. Kanaan then began to drive for KV Racing Technology-Lotus, also owned by another of Kanaan's former rivals Jimmy Vasser, in the No. 82 GEICO/Lotus Cars Dallara IR5-Honda Indy V8 HI7R in a car based on the Lotus 38-Ford V8 that Jim Clark drove to win the 1965 Indianapolis 500 (the first rear-engine car to win the race). At St. Petersburg Kanaan finished in 3rd place after having a race-long battle with future teammate Simona de Silvestro. Kanaan followed this result with a 6th and an 8th at the Indy Grand Prix of Alabama at Barber Motorsports Park and the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach on the Streets of Long Beach to remain 3rd in points. At the Indianapolis 500 Kanaan started 22nd and in the race he battled with Scott Dixon and Graham Rahal in the late stages of the race, running as high as 2nd place. Kanaan eventually made a pit stop and finished 4th behind friend Dan Wheldon, J.R. Hildebrand and Rahal. Kanaan started on the pole position at the Firestone Twin 275s Race #2 at Texas Motor Speedway (the starting lineup for the race was determined by a random draw) and in the race Kanaan finished in 5th place. At the Iowa Corn Indy 250 at Iowa Speedway Kanaan battled with teammate Takuma Sato, Marco Andretti, Oriol Servia and Dario Franchitti. Kanaan finished 2nd to former teammate Andretti after Sato crashed, Servia stalled after making a pit stop during the caution for Sato's crash and Franchitti dropped to 5th. Kanaan was involved in a spectacular crash at the MoveThatBlock.com Indy 225 at New Hampshire Motor Speedway with Andretti and Tomas Scheckter that had Kanaan flip down the track's back straightaway and at one he hit a portable toilet located next to the track and finished 22nd. In August it was announced that Kanaan signed on for another year with KV Racing Technology according to team owner Jimmy Vasser.[3] At the Baltimore Grand Prix on the Streets of Baltimore Kanaan finished 3rd after starting in 27th (last) place due to a crash with Hélio Castroneves when Kanaan got airborne after running over the right side of Castroneves' car when Castroneves was braking. At the season-ending IZOD IndyCar World Championship at Las Vegas Motor Speedway Kanaan qualified on the pole position and led the first 12 laps of the race when it was stopped when Wade Cunningham made contact with James Hinchcliffe in turn 1. Cunningham and Hildebrand then made contact when Cunningham swerved and Hildebrand drove over the rear of his car. Hildebrand's car became airborne and Cunningham collected Jay Howard on the inside and then Townsend Bell on the outside before crashing into the wall. Attempting to avoid the crash ahead, Vítor Meira lost control, spinning inward collecting both Charlie Kimball and E. J. Viso. At the same time Meira lost control, Scheckter was also attempting to avoid the first crash by rapidly slowing down on the outside. This led to Paul Tracy crashing into the back of Scheckter and a rapidly approaching Pippa Mann to launch over the top of Tracy after jerking to the outside to avoid crashing into Alex Lloyd. Kanaan's friend Wheldon (who started in 34th and last place in an attempt to win the race and collect $5 million from series' sponsors Verizon Wireless and GoDaddy.com to split evenly with a random fan) was running in 24th place and had slowed down from 220 miles per hour to 165 miles per hour when he ran over the rear end of Kimball's car and went airborne. Wheldon was pronounced dead on arrival at University Medical Center of Southern Nevada at 1:54 p.m. of blunt force trauma. The race was immediately cancelled and removed from the record books. The cars that survived the accident (with the exception of Alex Tagliani, who was driving the same car that Wheldon used to win the Indianapolis 500) drove five laps around the track in three-abreast style, similar to the style used at the Indianapolis 500 as tribute to Wheldon. The American ABC broadcast showed Kanaan and Dario Franchitti (friend of Kanaan and Wheldon) crying due to Wheldon's death during the five laps. Kanaan finished out the season ranked fifth in points with 366 points.

Kanaan returned with KV Racing Technology in 2012 to drive the No. 11 GEICO/Mouser Electronics-sponsored Dallara DW12-Ilmor-Chevrolet Indy V6. The Dallara DW12 was named after Dan Wheldon, who had tested the car (then known as the Dallara IR12) at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course and the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Kanaan's close friend Rubens Barrichello joined the team for his first season in the IndyCar Series. Kanaan started off the season with 25th and 21st-place finishes at the Honda Grand Prix of St. Petersburg on the Streets of St. Petersburg and the Honda Indy Grand Prix of Alabama at Barber Motorsports Park. Kanaan then finished 4th at the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach on the Streets of Long Beach. At the Indianapolis 500 Kanaan qualified in 8th place (Kanaan's best start in the race since a 6th place start in 2009). In the race Kanaan led for 7 laps in the late stages of the race (the first time Kanaan led the race since 2008). On lap 194 Kanaan was passed by Dario Franchitti, Scott Dixon and Takuma Sato. Kanaan finished in 3rd place after eventual winner Franchitti and Sato made contact, causing Sato to crash into the turn 1 wall. This was Kanaan's best finish in the race since a 2nd-place finish in 2004. Kanaan later had a 2nd-place finish at the Milwaukee IndyFest Presented by XYQ at the Milwaukee Mile and a 3rd-place finish at the Iowa Corn Indy 250 at Iowa Speedway. The results at Indianapolis, Milwaukee and Iowa, along with an 11th-place finish at the Firestone 550 at Texas Motor Speedway made Kanaan challenge for the A. J. Foyt Oval Championship with Ryan Hunter-Reay. Kanaan would also get a 4th-place finish at the Honda Indy Toronto at Exhibition Place. At the season-ending MAVTV 500 IndyCar World Championships at Auto Club Speedway Kanaan and Hunter-Reay were the only drivers who could win the oval championship. In the race Kanaan qualified 3rd and led for 47 laps while Hunter-Reay (who was battling Will Power for the series championship) was racing conservatively to finish in 5th place or better to win the championship. On lap 241 of 250 Kanaan crashed in turn 4 and finished in 18th place. Hunter-Reay finished in 4th place and won both the series championship and the oval championship. Kanaan finished 9th in the overall standings with 351 points. Kanaan also finished 2nd in the oval standings with 148 points (Hunter-Reay had 168 points).

In 2013 Kanaan returned with KV Racing Technology in the No. 11 Hydroxycut Dallara DW12-Ilmor-Chevrolet Indy V6 with SH Racing joining the team as a partner on Kanaan's car. Hydroxycut announced that they would not sponsor the car at all the races. This meant that the team would have to find additional sponsorship for the remaining races. Mouser Electronics sponsored the car at the Honda Indy Grand Prix of Alabama at Barber Motorsports Park and Itaipava at the Itaipava São Paulo Indy 300 presented by Nestlé on the Streets of São Paulo. Kanaan's best finish in the first four races was a 4th-place finish at the season-opening Honda Grand Prix of St. Petersburg on the Streets of St. Petersburg. At the Indianapolis 500 Kanaan qualified in 12th place. In the race Kanaan quickly moved up through the field and was battling for the lead with Ed Carpenter, Ryan Hunter-Reay and Marco Andretti. On lap 197 Kanaan passed Hunter-Reay for the lead on a restart for a crash by Graham Rahal with the Andretti Autosport cars of Carlos Muñoz, Hunter-Reay and Andretti right behind Kanaan. Moments after Kanaan took the lead Kanaan's friend Dario Franchitti crashed in turn 1, causing the race to finish under caution for the fourth consecutive year. Kanaan won the race at an average speed of 187.433 miles per hour, breaking the record set by Arie Luyendyk in the 1990 race. The race also broke the record for the number of lead changes in the race with 68, breaking the previous record of 34 during the 2012 race. The race meant that the friends of Franchitti (2010), Dan Wheldon (2011), Franchitti (2012) and Kanaan (2013) would have their faces in consecutive positions on the Borg-Warner Trophy. Kanaan later said "I was known for not winning and now I am known for winning. The last lap was the longest lap of my life. I get to put my ugly face on that trophy." It was his first IndyCar Series victory since his split from Andretti Autosport and the first IndyCar Series victory for KV Racing Technology. Kanaan tied Sam Hanks in being the most experienced driver in the Indianapolis 500 driver to win, both doing so in their twelfth start.[4] After his Indianapolis 500 victory Kanaan gained sponsorship from Hippino.com at both rounds of the Chevrolet Detroit Belle Isle Grand Prix at Belle Isle State Park, starting 19th in each race and finishing 13th in race No. 1 and 12th in race No. 2. The team also gained sponsorship from Sunoco (the official fuel provider for the series) and also gained sponsorship to the Indianapolis 500 film Turbo. The reason for the latter sponsorship was due to Sunoco having an endorsement for the film from producer DreamWorks Animation and distributor 20th Century Fox Film Corporation. In his first race with the sponsorship, the Firestone 550 at Texas Motor Speedway, Kanaan started 13th and finished 3rd. Kanaan then managed to finish 3rd at the Iowa Corn Indy 250 Presented by DEKALB at Iowa Speedway after starting 5th. Kanaan attempted to win the second leg of the Fuzzy's Triple Crown, the Pocono IndyCar 400 fueled by Sunoco at Pocono Raceway. In the race Kanaan qualified in 5th place and led for 15 laps and was battling with Scott Dixon for the win. When Kanaan attempted to pass Dixon the right side of Kanaan's front wing hit the left rear of Dixon's car, damaging Kanaaan's wing and causing him to have to make a green flag pit stop. Dixon went on to win the race while Kanaan finished in 13th place, the last car to finish on the lead lap. Following his Indianapolis win and several other respectable results Kanaan found himself in the top 5 in points. Kanaan's season began to have several disappointing results starting at the Honda Indy Toronto twin races at Exhibition Place. In race No. 1 Kanaan started in 4th place and finished 5th. In race No. 2 Kanaan started 6th and crashed after 35 laps to finish in 24th (last) place. Following the second Toronto race Kanaan dropped from 5th to 6th in points. At the next race of the season, the Honda Indy 200 at Mid-Ohio at the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course Kanaan started 19th and finished 24th (last) for the second consecutive race due to a loose wheel after 64 laps. At the next race, the GoPro Indy Grand Prix of Sonoma at Sonoma Raceway Kanaan tied with his then-team owner Jimmy Vasser for the all-time IndyCar Series (including the AAA Contest Board, the USAC National Championship and the Champ Car World Series) record for most consecutive starts with 211, dating back to the 2001 Freightliner/G.I. Joes 200 Presented by Texaco at Portland International Raceway.[5] In the race Kanaan started 16th and finished 13th. Following the race Kanaan dropped from 10th to 11th in points. Kanaan would get a third 24th (last) place finish in six races at the Shell and Pennzoil Grand Prix of Houston at Reliant Park. Around this time on 27 September Kanaan was announced as the driver of the No. 8 NTT Data/TNT Energy Drink Dallara DW12-Ilmor-Chevrolet Indy V6 for NTT Data Chip Ganassi Racing in 2014.[6][7] At the season-ending MAVTV 500 IndyCar World Championships at Auto Club Speedway Kanaan started 9th and led for 3 laps. Kanaan finished in 3rd place behind Will Power and Carpenter. The race was also notable for being the first race to not have Franchitti, due to his injuries at the Shell and Pennzoil Grand Prix of Houston at Reliant Park after making contact with Takuma Sato and flipping into the catchfence in a crash similar to Wheldon's fatal accident, since the 2008 Peak Antifreeze Indy 300 at Chicagoland Speedway (at that race it was due to Franchitti participating in the NASCAR Cup Series that year). Following the race, Kanaan and 2nd-place finisher Carpenter wished Franchitti a recovery when the two were being interviewed on the broadcast by the NBC Sports Network. Kanaan finished 11th in points with 397 points, making it the first full-time season in the IndyCar Series that Kanaan failed to finish in the top 10 in points (Kanaan did finish 50th in points in 2002 due to only running the Indianapolis 500). On a positive note Kanaan won the series' Most Popular Driver award.

Dario Franchitti's injuries were enough for him to announce his retirement from racing. This meant that his car at Target Chip Ganassi Racing (the team that had won the series championship each year from 2008 to 2013, except 2012, with Franchitti and Scott Dixon) needed a replacement driver. Ryan Briscoe, Alex Tagliani (who drove in Franchitti's place at Fontana and also did off season testing in the car), Sergio Pérez,[8] Sam Hornish, Jr.,[9] Oriol Servia, Justin Wilson[10] and Franchitti's cousin Paul di Resta[11] were all considered for the car at some point. Kanaan was eventually named to drive the car with Briscoe moving into the car originally intended for Kanaan (Briscoe had previously driven the car at the 2013 Indianapolis 500). In 2014 Kanaan drove the No. 10 Target Dallara DW12-Ilmor-Chevrolet Indy V6 with additional sponsorship from GE Reveal, Lexar, Energizer, Suave Professionals for Men, TNT Energy Drink, Glad and Huggies. At the season-opening Firestone Grand Prix of St. Petersburg on the Streets of St. Petersburg Kanaan started in 2nd place and finished in 6th place. Over the next five races Kanaan's best start was a 9th at the Grand Prix of Indianapolis on the Indianapolis Motor Speedway road course and his best finish in these races was a 9th place at the Honda Indy Grand Prix of Alabama at Barber Motorsports Park after starting from 23rd (last) place. At the Indianapolis 500 Kanaan qualified in a disappointing 16th place in a forgettable Indianapolis 500 for Chip Ganassi Racing that had teammates Scott Dixon qualify 11th (he had the 3rd fastest speed in the field but had to start in the position due to not being fast enough to qualify for the Firestone Fast Nine after the first qualifying day), Charlie Kimball qualify 26th, Briscoe qualify 30th and Sage Karam (in a car co-owned by both Dreyer & Reinbold Racing and Kingdom Racing) qualify 31st. On Carb Day practice (the final practice prior to the race) Kanaan and Dixon had the two fastest speeds for the session at 227.383 and 227.773 miles per hour each. In the race Kanaan was moving up through the field with various other cars who were quick but had a poor starting position, such as Ryan Hunter-Reay and Townsend Bell. On lap 66 Kanaan ran out of fuel but managed to make it back to his pit stall. The pit stop took 43 seconds and dropped Kanaan down the running order. On lap 73 Kanaan returned to the pit lane with a broken starter. Kanaan's crew managed to repair the car, but Kanaan went down 18 laps and was out of contention for the rest of the race. Kanaan would eventually finish in 26th place with 177 laps complete (23 laps down). The finishing results were also a disappointment for the rest of Chip Ganassi Racing with Briscoe finishing 18th with all 200 laps complete after being nearly taken out in a crash in turn 2 of the first lap, Dixon finished 29th due to a crash on lap 168 and Kimball finished 31st due to a crash on lap 150 (the race had been caution-free to that point). The only positive for the team was rookie Karam having a respectable race to finish in 9th place. At the next race of the season, the Chevrolet Detroit Belle Isle Grand Prix Race #1 at Belle Isle State Park, Kanaan managed to finish in 3rd place after starting in 8th place. In the second race Kanaan managed to get a 9th-place finish. At the following race, the Firestone 600 at Texas Motor Speedway, Kanaan started in 3rd place and on lap 242 of 248 the caution came out for an engine fire on Takuma Sato's car. By that point in the race there were only six cars on the lead lap: Ed Carpenter, Juan Pablo Montoya, Simon Pagenaud, Dixon, Kanaan and Will Power. All of the drivers, except leader Carpenter and 2nd place Montoya, pitted for new tires. On lap 246 the race was restarted and Kanaan finished 6th. Kanaan was poised to finish in 3rd place at the next race, the Shell and Pennzoil Grand Prix of Houston Race #1 at NRG Park, when on the next-to-last lap Graham Rahal in 4th place rear-ended Kanaan's car, dropping him to a 13th-place finish, Rahal was penalized from 3rd place to 11th place. Kanaan finished in 10th place after starting 8th in the second race. At the next race, the Pocono IndyCar 500 at Pocono Raceway, Kanaan started in 8th place and led for a race-high 78 of 200 laps after battling with Team Penske teammates Montoya, Power and Hélio Castroneves. Kanaan's team then put Kanaan on a different strategy than the rest of the leaders that would only work if a caution came out late in the race. The race only had six laps of caution due to a single-car crash by Rahal on lap 159. Kanaan and Josef Newgarden, who was attempting the same strategy after struggling for most of the race, had to pit on laps 196 and 194. This resulted in an 11th-place finish with Newgarden in 10th. At the following race, the Iowa Corn Indy 300 at Iowa Speedway Kanaan started in 2nd place to teammate Dixon. In the race Kanaan led for 247 of 300 laps and it looked as if Kanaan would get his first victory of the season when on lap 282 the caution came out for a crash by Montoya. During the caution the cars of Carpenter, Hunter-Reay, Rahal and Newgarden all made pit stops for fresh tires. On the restart on lap 291 Hunter-Reay and Newgarden quickly moved up through the field with Hunter-Reay taking the lead on lap 299. Kanaan would also lose 2nd place to Newgarden. At the next race, the Honda Indy Toronto Race #1 at Exhibition Place Kanaan started in 5th place and finished in 3rd place. In the second race Kanaan started from 9th place (the starting lineup was determined by drivers points following the first race) and nearly won his first race of the season. On lap 51 a crash occurred that involved several cars and the race was immediately stopped. The race was also a timed race with approximately 4:00 minutes left in the race Kanaan was in 3rd place behind Mike Conway, who had older slick tires, and Wilson, who had older rain tires. On the restart Kanaan was held up by the slower car of Wilson along with several lapped cars. Kanaan would eventually finish in 2nd place, his best finish since winning the 2013 Indianapolis 500. At the following race, the Honda Indy 200 at Mid-Ohio at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course, Kanaan started in 3rd place and crashed out on the first lap of the race and collected Marco Andretti. Kanaan finished the race in 21st place. At the ABC Supply Wisconsin 250 at Milwaukee IndyFest Presented by the Metro Milwaukee Honda Dealers at the Milwaukee Mile. Kanaan started in 2nd place and finished in 3rd place after leading for 14 laps. At the following race, the GoPro Grand Prix of Sonoma at Sonoma Raceway, Kanaan started in 8th place and finished in 13th place. At the season-ending MAVTV 500 IndyCar World Championships at Auto Club Speedway Kanaan started in 7th place. Kanaan led for 64 laps, including the final 54 laps, to win his first race since the 2013 Indianapolis 500. Kanaan finished 7th in points with 544 points. This was the highest position that Kanaan finished in the final point standings since the 2011 season.

When Kanaan was in the process of leaving KV Racing Technology Kanaan had an offer from NASCAR team Joe Gibbs Racing to first drive in the NASCAR Xfinity Series and later the NASCAR Cup Series.[14] During this time Kanaan wanted to remain in the IndyCar Series and negotiated with KV, Chip Ganassi Racing, Andretti Autosport and Bryan Herta Autosport for IndyCar. Kanaan stated that each team needed Kanaan to bring sponsorship to the team. Prior to the Federated Auto Parts 400 at Richmond International Raceway J.D. Gibbs stated that Kanaan was "It's way too early to even talk about that [possibility of driving for JGR]. Listen, guys, we just had a meeting, and I don't know when we'll talk to him again. If all it takes is a helmet and personality to get a ride with us [as some have suggested], I'd still be driving. And if I had $8 million [to sponsor a Nationwide team] I'd still have a ride. But he's a really neat guy and he'd be better than me." Had Kanaan joined Gibbs he would have likely driven the No. 20 Dollar General Toyota Camry in the NASCAR Xfinity Series in place of Brian Vickers who would begin to drive full-time for Michael Waltrip Racing in 2014.[15] Kanaan eventually got a team in INDYCAR with NTT Data Chip Ganassi Racing and was later switched to Target Chip Ganassi Racing.
