My impression of the 2024 Santa Cruz SEL with tech pkg

Please see all I wrote and detailed about this vehicle. Overall its a cute lil truck but with poor visibility due to its style design, also very slow outside mirror defrosting unless I am doing something wrong. I have been manually defrosting it.

DCT Transmission problems since delivery

I am not happy that I purchase a brand new vehicle with problems. I feel the honest thing for Hyundai to do is to buy it back and sell me a replacement but I know that will never happen. You live and you learn

Best overall vehicle

I’ve had many vehicles over the years and the Santa Cruz is overall the best one. I don’t pull a camper any more so I didn’t need a huge towing capacity though this trucklet will pull 5000 lbs. I tow a trailer with my ATV and I don’t know it’s back there. It’s loaded with features and extremely quiet/comfortable on the highway. Trouble free so far. Love it!!

WOW, Unbelievable value.

Bought it for my wife, she calls it her "forever vehicle". Great styling, awesome safety features, and a fantastic comfortable ride. Gas mileage ratings were 23/26, we're averaging around 32 MPG. You owe it to yourself to at least give it a test drive.

2024 Santa Cruz

I purchased a 2024 Hyundai Santa Cruz from Walser Hyundai Coon Rapids MN. It was a pleasant and low stress process and the sales person Vincent was helpful and knowledgeable of the vehicle. Overall I was very satisfied.

okay

I am still waiting for a refund on a part returned to Koji Kimora. The tow harness was never available for installation, but was refunded. The brake controller ordered was incorrect and without the harness, not refunded yet. I am waiting be refunded since October 3, 2023 on the brake controller. Not happy. Robert

Fits my needs

One reason for picking the Santa Cruz over the Honda Ridgeline was the space in my garage! And the Santa Cruz was a better value over the Ford Maverick! All other small trucks were either too long or did not have the features that I wanted!

Sant Cruz review

Need to make turbo engine standard in these cars to make exterior match the fun to drive aspect. Currently with base engine it is just dull and boring, Yes, gets you where you need to go but engine AGAIN does not match the style you are pushing the car to be.

2024 Santa Cruz Limited

Really fun, comfortable truck. Fast and agile and I really like the utility of the bed. The technology packge works well and syncs up easily with my phone. Fuel economy so far has been excellent. I am very satisfied.

Santa Cruz Limited

Love my new Santa Cruz! It’s the perfect blend of form and function. Perfect family vehicle that is versatile and fun to drive. With the ability to tow 5000lbs, carry items securely out of sight with the lockable tonneau cover, and water proof compartment, I couldn’t ask for more.

Santa Fe

Love the truck!! Price was fair, inside and out the truck looks expensive and very sporty. Heated seats, climate control, leg room very nice. The truck bed is large enough to do all the things I need or want to do.

Great vehicle inside and out

I have the SEL AWD with activity pkg, Sage Gray with gray interior, love the color, interior is great, very comfortable, excellent mpg, can still haul 8' long lumber. Everyone that I have given a ride is pleasantly surprised. Lot better mpg than I expected.

Love this Vehicle

It had the perfect options and mix of features. I was going to buy a truck then a car then a suv so this was the perfect mix of all. It has every feature and did not cost as much to add the features as the other options. It had a good mix. Wish this model had air condition seats but thats about it!

Ideal Urban Pickup

I have had several pickups over the years, a full sixed Crew Cab with an 8-foot box to a Mega Cab with a diesel but now that I am getting older my need for a large truck is gone. I still needed some kind of pickup and along came the Hyundai Santa Cruz. I put a deposit on a Limited model before it was even delivered and since taking delivery on it, I have not been disappointed. I think it is the ideal urban pickup. I haul my bags of leaves to the collection site with it, took my snowblower in for service with it and hauled some miscellaneous household items with it so far. It is very comfortable to drive and yet it is perfect for all of the small truck things that i need to do.

You are the best in class.

Very beautiful Vehicle. Unique in class. Custom-fit to my needs. The Blue Link remote watch is what I still in owe. Technology is amazing and this car has it all. Thank you for your hard work and time.
