Santa Cruz

From the color to the premium features are all well thought through by the engineer staff. No complaints thus far.

Good, practical but comfort is a question

I do like this car and enjoy having a truck bed, the comfort for long drives is lacking, after driving for about an hour or so, you will start to notice how uncomfortable it is. The cabin is noisy, specially when breaking, you will hear a weird buzzing sound. The infotainment system is ok, I constantly get a black screen and brought this up to hyundai and they ignore it. The drive is somewhat smooth, it will stahl and I have brought this up as well. It has often been giving issues with the throttle and the dealership has brushed it off as well. The car is average, with a lot of room for improvement, it is perfect for a person living a single life, definitely not a family car.

Absent dealership maintenance because I purchased the vehicle

The Santa Cruz should be perfect but there are flaws that could be repaired under factory maintenance but because I purchased the vehicle I got zero factory maintenance under my warranty intentionally at Matt Bowers Hyundai Slidell. This is a team of con artists.

California Sand

I have never made a recommendation on a vehicle. It is a very personal decision for people in my experience.

All great except…

I bought my vehicle as it came off a 12 month lease I was only given one key fob As it turned out, my wife lost the only one. The cost to replace, purchase a spare and have programmed by the dealership was $1,500 Why so much??? My other car, a Subaru was only 230 with same functions

Santa Cruz

The Santa Cruz handles beautifully. I love the acceleration from a stop. The driver seat is comfortable and easily adjusted. The passenger seat would be more comfortable with additional features for adjustment. I would definitely add front end warnings. It would be much easier when pulling in or out of a parking space if warned when too close to next car. Also when pulling up to the car in the opposing parking space.

The does most everything for everyday life vehicle.

The Santa Cruz does a great job of giving you the comfort of a compact SUV, and the utility to haul large(ish) and dirty cargo in an open bed, all in a stylish package.

Fun to Run

Great little whatever it is. Get to run with the Jeeps one day and pick up trucks the next. The turbo kills your mileage but still kinda makes it worth it.

Great little truck!

2024 Santa Cruz, great truck. Smart driving mode is best for performance. Daytime running lights are great. Headlights at night could be better-seems hood lid extends over highlights, making lights not shine at correct height. Bright lights are good. Inside is comfortable, driver seat adjustments are great, along with all safety features.
