Great purchasing experience

Purchased when new vehicles were difficult to find but my Santa Cruz was sold at the sticker price, while other vehicles I considered were only being offered for sale (when finally available) at 30% over sticker price. What a scam, so I won't consider a Ford in the future! The agent I dealt with was pleasant, professional and accommodating. I've owned a Hyundai in the past and was pleased with the quality.

Love it!

I love everything about this vehicle especially having a truck bed with the comfort and space of a SUV. I have had numerous people honk at me at stoplights and ask what kind of vehicle I’m driving and if I like it.

No help from Hyundai on issues

Vehicle is good as a daily driver which is why I purchased. Needed something alittle higher off the ground. My previous vehicle had gotten to uncomfortable getting in and out due to the height of the vehicle.

Was hoping for better...

The engine issues really hurt my views of the Santa Cruz. A car this new should not have engine troubles. I like the uniqueness of it. Good comfortable ride. But, it all boils down to whether I can trust the vehicle. After this latest issue of oil in my air filter...how can I?

Santa Cruze SEL

Great new little truck for older guys like me ! But I wish I had purchased the NIGHT Edition!!!!! I plan on a trade in to the Night Ed. As soon as price/interest rates go down significantly…some day.

I love driving this vehicle

Vehicle is great to drive. I love everything about it. I get a lot of people asking about it. My co worker saw it and bought one of her own. I think I chose wisely. I love driving my Santa Cruz. I've had it for a year and am still getting used to it.

Android Auto worthless

Was overcharged for built in car accessories from manufacturer Window sticker. No one would take responsibility for the error and reimburse. Had to buy a separate Navigation system. 3 different cell phones wouldnt work. Have had few issues with sluggish/surges. Trunk wont open if running. Bluelink alerts delayed

Hawaii Santa Cruz Experience

Excellent overall experience. The customer service has been excellent. I like the style and have had numerous positive comments from friends and strangers. I have used it to haul an engine and also donsome rubbish dump runs. It has performed well.

Love my Santa Cruz

I love the unique styling and overall look of my Santa Cruz. There isn't much that I don't like about this vehicle. I love the functionality of having a truck bed, with the comforts of an SUV. It has more than enough power for anything I need it for.

Gutless

I was seriously looking at a new Maverick but dealers wanted 2-3+ over MSRP. I then started looking for a Santa Cruz. I drove one in San Antonio and really liked it. They stuck 2k worth of unwanted or needed stuff and that cancelled that idea. I went to the Hyundai dealer in New Braunfels and they weren't doing the add on $$$ and they had one with the right exterior color and grey interior that I was interested in. It didn't have the turbo engine as the one I test drove had but it had most of the right stuff. They had one of a different color but it was about 10k more. I wrote them a check and out the door I went. Too soon too old, too late to smart. It didn't have near the power of the one I test drove but I thought I could learn to like it. NOPE! I really do love everything about this little truck aside from power. The transmission is doing strange thigs as well. I can highly recommend the truck but not the non-turbo engine. I'm going to try to sell it so I can get the turbo and dual clutch trans. We'll see.

Best small truck

I’ve had two full size trucks and this hauls air just as good as the other two and I can get close to 30 mpg out of it. I can still get a dirt bike in the back and it handles my mountain bikes fine. Ride quality is better than a truck as well.

A great choice for our primary vehicle.

We have not been disappointed in our decision to purchase a Santa Cruz. It provides the unique styling, comfort and options that we were looking for in our car. We get stopped, almost on a daily basis, as to what kind of vehicle it is and how they love the appearance and styling.

2022 Santa Cruz SEL

The ride and performance of the Santa Cruz exceeded my expectations. The utility of my small truck has proved useful on several occasions. I like the hard retractable tonneau cover and locking tailgate. The styling of the Santa Cruz is more pleasing than other small trucks I considered.
