Great driving truck

This is a great driving truck! So far it’s been reliable with no issues. I like the extra storage spaces under the rear seats and truck bed and the 120v outlet in the bed! It’s quite on the road and I love the styling!

Great suspension, smooth ride. Good on gas. Needs USB for rear passengers. No electric passenger seat. Automatic brights! Comfortable seats. Good design. Does well in the snow. .......................

Love this vehicle

Hyundai nailed it with the Santa Cruz. It’s the coolest looking vehicle on the roads. Handling and performance is flawless. ( Fortunately) I have not had the opportunity to see how it does in the snow. I have had so many double takes and positive comments on the appearance

A blast to drive!

The Santa Cruz drives like a sports car and is great looking. Very nice interior and fantastic infotainment system. The bed is very useful unless you have large, very heavy loads. For almost any other task the bed is perfect.

A real head turner

Almost a day doesn’t go by that someone stops me to comment on the looks of this truck. The main reason I bought is that my wife would never drive a truck, but as this is basically a Tucson cut into a truck, she is very comfortable in it. The truck features are really cool, and the horsepower is amazing. It will really get up and go.

Everyone is always checking it out and asking how I like it!

I've been a Tacoma owner for decades. I was not expecting to make anew purchase for another couple of years - and that would be a new Taco, or so I believed at the time. My wife brought me with her while she was making a deal on a Tuscon and I saw the Santa Cruz in the showroom. I was curious, so I came back the next day for a test drive. I really enjoyed the responsiveness, I felt like I was driving a sports car! With all the technology, carrying capacity, and COMFORT, I was so impressed I traded in my Taco on the spot! I have not been disappointed with my Santa Cruz since.

Like a modern day El Camino

The Santa Cruz is a wonderful modern car, that feels like driving a sporty car, but is easy to get in & out of, and has a small truck bed like an old El Camino. That allows you to haul large items that won't fit in a trunk, without needing a full size truck.

Santa Cruz Limited

I had many vehicles. Usually a truck and sporty car or a truck and an suv. The Santa Cruz combines all that into one cool vehicle. Performance of a sporty car, ride of an suv and utility of a truck made this a no brainer for me. The icing on the cake is the cool look of the SC. People stop me all the time to ask about it. I have to say its the best all in one package I've ever seen for someone who only wants to maintain one vehicle.

Head Turner

Beautiful vehicle. Constantly gets looks and compliments. Modern technology and design. Not the best gas mileage, but smooth ride. Acceleration is a little choppy at times, but great vehicle none the less.

Love the Santa Cruz. Glad I purchasedit.

I've been looking at the Santa Cruz since it came out. Loved the looks and concept. When I decided to start the buying process, I went online and couldn't find a bad review. My wife absolutely loves it. Win Win for me.

I enjoy the driving the Santa Cruz. The use of the truck box is great!

I had a Hyundai Sonata for the past 17 years and really liked it. I was looking for a small truck and Hyundai had the Santa Cruz, which will fit my lifestyle since I go the city dump quite a bit and can get at least 4 containers in. I'm sure I'll enjoy this car/truck for years to come.

Never thought I'd say this, but...I love my truck.

I agonized before buying. Zero regrets. I love the color, and the functionality, and the trim package, and I love how I now have a vehicle that drives like an SUV, but delivers like a truck. Thank you, Hyundai!

Had I know at the time of purchase,I would bought 2.5t

Ok I'm satisfied with my Santa Cruz, haven't taken it on a long ride,I must admit the vehicle is too advance for a car guy 65yrs old , (too much technology) lol 😂,I would recommend that the door for the bed should swing open,to make room for longer objects to lift or extend, make a rear spare tire on to swing door thus making deeper /more space for hidden compartment..

Good All Around Vehicle

The Santa Cruz to me at least is a combination car and small truck with the benefit of better gas mileage. The bed has room for my usual stuff needed for household stuff like potting soil and small boxes without the gas guzzling you get from a bigger truck and the car has enough room in the front at lease to be comfortable when going on long trips. The back seats are a cramped but I haven't had anyone use them yet. The Santa Cruz is a good choice for someone who likes something in a jack of all trades without paying an arm and a leg.

Great Truck, very pleased with the comfort of driving it. Love the automatic tail gate. Has all the bells and whistles you need on it. Would highly recommend if looking for a smaller truck. Automatic bed cover.
