Review Santa Cruz

Great vehicle and power the drive is great how ever the infotainment screen went blank after 130 miles and was told 2 months to repair replace. This is the only reason for not giving a 100 percent. The new style is great how ever

My Santa Cruz is exactly what I wanted

My Santa Cruz perfectly meets my needs for a small pickup truck without the harsh characteristics of a larger vehicle. Toes extremely well, fuel economy is much better than anticipated. Everything I need and sat a very competitive price point while retaining the Made in the USA Hyundai Quality I’ve come to rely on!

Fun to drive

Fun to drive, like the styling. Comfortable ride. I have not driven much on the interstate so not sure about that mpg. As of now city mpg is about 19. A little low than expected. Still getting broken in, so may improve

Good ride quality. Versitily, performance

Good vehicle for every day life. Ride is form but smooth. Engine response is lagging and transmission may take a second to engage from a stand still. Front seat is comfortable. Interior is quite.

Bad customer service

I complained some questions to Hyundai consumer office. The customer service asked me to find the financial department. The financial department asked me to find customer office since I paid the cashier check, not a loan. I had to submit a complaint to Hyundai consumer office. The consumer office asked me to contact with dealership. I called tons of time. The Kendall Hyundai of Miami manager is no more response because I already paid full. After paying, the customer will not get any service again. They kick off the ball. Until now no response, no solution. They force me to go to the court.

Great vehicle

It’s a great and good vehicle to own I am going to put it through its paces since I live in Alaska. My only complaint is the fuel economy. I would like to do another review during the winter to see how this vehicle handles arctic conditions.

Great Little Truck!

I Purchased a Santa Cruz because I needed something to carry some tools and supplies for work and I wanted good gas mileage. I was trying to do it with a Hyundai Kona, which has great mileage, but the tools and other stuff was messing up the back end. So far the mileage is fair but the room is much better and the ride is wonderful. I believe the mileage will get better as time goes it did with the Kona. I purchased the SE which is the base model not all the bells and whistles but it still has a lot of features more then I use.

Great little Ute!

Waited for years since the concept was released. Been very thrilled with this new Santa Crew Limited. Think Hyundai hit it out the park. For anyone considering it or on the fence, it will exceed your expectations in this category of vehicle. Look forward to next 10 years with it.

Home Run

Somewhat of a niche market for this vehicle, but the first one to offer an exciting choice for us to move from luxury sports cars, work pick-up trucks, and family SUVs to a sporty, well designed, mixed-use, SAV that is perfect for our active senior lifestyle - ready for cross country trips, hauling a load to the dump, going out on the town, or just running to the store. I keep getting unsolicited compliments on the Stone Blue color!

Good with some quirks

Santa cruz is fun to drive and practical. Nice and functional interior and comfortable. Standard transmission seems to get confused while shifting sometimes, MPG is not as good as most other 2022 vehicles. Infotainment is functional but quirky, rear speakers are reduced to less than 50% compared to the front, no bass, and scrambled indexing when using usb stick or ipod. Wind noise from the front doors when driving over 45 mph.. Overall I like it, but feel it is a little over-priced for the quality you get

Sporty and Affordable

Smooth ride, love all the features. Not too big, not too small. Sporty look and lots of front seat leg room. Love the sunroof and bed cover. great for the beach. Enjoy driving every day. Hope it lasts for many years.

Overall I really love my Santa Cruz

Performance is better than I expected. Ride quality is much better I expected. The 10 minute test drive I originally took didn't give me a full feeling of the truck or enough time behind the wheel. But that was my choice to not extend it longer. I bought it anyway and appreciate it more.

Blue Stone Santa Cruz Limited

Love my goldilocks SAV. It's the superman vehicle... it's a car, it's a SAV, it's a truck. It's everything all in one! It's fun to drive, handles great, good gas mileage. It's the perfect car for someone who needs a truck bed not a trunk. It even has a small hidden trunk in the bed. Perfect vehicle for me!

A spectacular vehicle

It is a vehicle that brings together many great features, such as driving assistance, cabin design, aggressive lines on its exterior, creative arrangement of the headlights, tires according to its design, outstanding elements such as the cooler inside the trunk. But the trunk filters the water. Impossible to safely carry items there, as they will surely end up wet. Either by rain or washing the truck. And after approximately 50 miles per hour there is a whistling noise that for me is unbearable.

Ok truck, poor performance.

Eats fuel like a bigger more powerful vehicle. Poor acceleration on the highway!!! Range is way too short for highway driving. locked storage/cooler in bed doesn't keep ice cold. Refuses to download contacts from phone.
