Great features and price

I have been looking at the Santa Cruz for about one year. After owning a 2022 Hyundai Santa Fe Limited for one year I decided that my almost 100,000 mile Ford Fusion Hybrid needed a replacement that was similar to the Santa Fe but had more utility. I am glad that Hyundai has this truck available.

Love this vehicle

Highly recommend this vehicle it's comfortable. Very sharp looking and fun to drive. It handles really well on the road and had a number of great safety features on it. The four cylinder turbo has plenty of power. Love it!

Hyundai Santa Cruz

I was having difficulty deciding between a car and truck. The Santa Cruz provided the perfect mix of both - comfortable and roomy second row seats and a truck bed for hauling those items you dont want inside your vehicle. In addition, it is smooth running, easy and fun to drive. I had my first experience on snow covered roads last weekend and it handled very well. It was not a major snow or ice event so I did not need to engage the four wheel drive but did use the "snow mode". I felt very safe and secure and suspect it will be able to handle a major snow event as well. Very pleased with my purchase.

Great vehicle

This vehicle meets all my needs and is a well designed truck. The performance is outstanding and the all wheel drive is great to have. The night edition is truly a work of art and really shows how well this truck was designed!

Very good vehicle

I love my Santa Cruz. I had a Jeep Cherokee that I replaced with the Santa Cruz and everything is so much better than the jeep. Loe the look of it better than the ridgeline, or the Maverick. Have had several people stop and ask about it.

Santa Cruz

This is the only car truck combo I could find that is low enough to get in and out. I have always owned a pickup. I traded a Ram for this truck. Reliability on this Santa Cruz I gave it a 5 I only have 800+ miles on it.

Dont know what you asking here

for the price i would have liked power seat for front passenger seat, I had to take the tow package and i am not ever gonna use it, ( i have a truck), you should ask the customer Hey do you want running boards or tow package, let them decide after all he is paying $47,582 of hard earned money, he should get some say

Lots of fun to drive. A smaller version of my Ford Sport Trac, only way better mileage.

I was looking for a small truck, and the Santa Cruz checked all the boxes. It had to be a good commuter vehicle, but also able to haul a small trailer when needed. Also had to have good ride qualities for long road trips. This vehicle delivered all that, plus it looks different from the other small trucks on the market.

Fills a void for utility vehicles!

Very practical, fun, and unique. Love the look, color and ruggedness. The only thing I miss is not receiving my bed mat. Love the step rails. They add to the overall look and purpose. The grill is as beautiful as they come.

What a great little truck!!!

Ethan our salesman was generous with his time and knowledge. Never pushy very informative and polite. We did a little research online but really found out much more of what the Santa Cruz had to offer at the dealership. The evening we purchased ran late. Ethan offered us time to come back to go over the Santa Cruz system phone link etc. We received a fair price for our trade. Love the truck and all it has to offer. I will add I was never interested in the Hyundai until this Santa Cruz was presented!

Great experience

I am simply disappointed with the scratches on the rea driver quarter panel. When the vehicle was delivered I noticed very little that was wrong with all of the features and aspects ofthe vehicles I was inspecting. I am now noticing that there are scratches, silk web scratches, the are lightly engrained along the rear quarter panel of the driver side. These scratches are ina swirling pattern which leads me to believe that the person(s) that were preparing the vehicle for delivery to the dealership, or the ones delivering to me, were trying to buff marks from manufacturing in order to prepare the vehicle for inspection. The scratches being in a pattern, and only on the rear quarter panel, should be rectified and it is my belief that they can be rectified with the proper buffing equipment.

Great vehicle, Santa Cruz rocks!

It has great styling inside and out. Storage is great, cabin is comfy. I love the bed, it's not as big as most trucks, but it's perfect for me! I saw the Santa Cruz at a car show it Atlanta before it was on the market.

Santa Cruz

I love my new Santa Cruz. Brian from Hyundai El Paso did an awesome job answering all the questions I had about the vehicle. The overall experience trading in a used vehicle was tough but the Hyundai team was embers accommodating and we were able to meet somewhere in the middle. I just glad I got myself a Santa Cruz, it was definitely the vehicle I was in the market for.

Absolutely LOVE my Santa Cruz SEL Premium!!

I am extremely pleased with my purchase! Its a bit of truck with all the comfort of a high quality,smooth riding,sleek design! Turns many heads! Has all the bells and whistles and I just LOVE it so much!! The turbo is awesome too! I cannot say enough good about my Santa Cruz!! Phantom black is accented with iridescent glitter which is beautiful and helps hide dirt better than a traditional black!!

Fun and Exciting

I did alot of research and watched many YouTube videos when deciding which vehicle I was going to purchase. I had my choice narrowed down to a Ford Maverick and the Hyundai Santa Cruz. Much was being said about how inexpensive the Maverick was but it comes with nothing so when you start adding everything up the price is right there with a Santa Cruz. I have owned a 2012 Hyundai Tucsan and it was great. So given the Mavericks appearance is “blah” and it’s also a new unpredictable vehicle the choice was a no brainer. With the extensive warranty and the clean fun styling of the Santa Cruz I jumped in and let me tell you I’m loving this SAV. I’m actually thinking of selling my wife’s car and buying another.
