Buy Santa Fe Cruz and you will not be disappointed!

This little truck is very comfortable to ride in and to use. It has great gas mileage. The storage space is more than adequate. We love its overall appearance and many people have commented on it too.

Love the looks and how fun it is to drive

I would highly recommend the Santa Cruz. It's versatile and has great styling. It drives smooth and very little road noise. You will be happy with your purchase if you get the Santa Cruz. I think the limited is the best value for the money.

Bru's View

This is a fun vehicle to drive. With just enough room to give a comfortable run. Decent gas mileage. Beautiful styled inside and out. A style that looks good camping or a night on the town. Enough space the haul what you need, with decent storage.

My Santa Cruz.

Love the styling, Love the performance and durability.. It's fun, it's an suv a truck and just everything I need in a vehicle. I feel safe, and gas mileage is good. Fit and finish, the paint is flawless and comfort is great. Long drives are easy, and gauges and screens are very eye friendly. It's just the right height for entry and exit. Sound system is incredible... I love love love my Santa Cruz.

Loving the Santa Cruz

Since I've bought my 2023 Hyundai Santa Cruz LMTD, I couldn't be happier. It fits the deal of what I need perfectly, and I love the design of it. Overall, it has been an amazing daily driver and incredibly reliable. The only gripe I have, is that the base model of the Santa cruz recieved wireless android auto, and somewhere along the lines the higher trims lost it. Not a deal breaker for me though.

perfect combination of truck and sedan

I like a truck but didn't need a mid size pick up. I also needed rear seating. The Santa Cruz fit the need perfectly and it has a full range of optional features. Color choices are limited as is the interior color pallet. Overall a fine vehicle.

I love my Hyundai Santa Cruz

Everything about my Santa Cruz is awesome. I love it and have recommended it to my friends and family. It fulfills all my needs for a truck and rides like a car. It is very comfortable and fun to drive, and I can haul stuff. I also love the blue stone color.

Great 4 door pickup

My new Santa Cruz is stylish, comfortable to drive and peppy. Happy I got the turbo! After driving a smaller car, I’m very happy with the ease of getting in/out of the vehicle and comfort when driving.

Sharp and Highly Versatile

This is a great unibody truck. It is stylish and very versatile with great storage. The inside is very intuitive to a user's needs and all controls are easily accessible. Gas mileage is good for this type of truck. I am very impressed with the Hyundai warranty and service.

Fast

This girl is F A F. I have the limited with the turbo all wheel drive. Wow talk about quick! It’s also for me, just what I needed. I get so many compliments on the way it looks. I’d buy a second one.

I am very happy with the vehicle

I was very happy with the way Grant the salesperson helped me out. My Santa Cruz is a great truck for my wife. She loves the color and how easy it is to drive. It drives like an SUV not a truck and that is why she enjoys it.

Love it

First, I want you to know that before I purchased my Santa Cruz I hadn't seen anything that I really loved. I really love the Santa Cruz, and apparently lots of others as well. I get compliments everytime I'm out. People love the look and color, and say they never saw my truck before. They then ask if it's a new model? I know the Santa Cruz is still pretty new to the truck scene, and I love it. Great job Hyundai!

Fun and useful

I thought that replacing a Honda Ridgeline with a smaller truck would cause me to make concessions about how much I could carry in the bed. Surprisingly, the Santa Cruz allows me to carry as much as the Ridgeline. I purchased a bed fence for whenever I need the extra space. Also, four adults are very comfortable in this vehicle. I made a great choice!

Great compact truck

Gave the Santa Cruz a look after not being able to get a Ford Maverick Hybrid anywhere. Glad I went with the Santa Cruz. It's a much nicer vehicle over all. More.stylish and comfortable. The Turbo engine really has some.kick and it's a fun drive.

Santa Cruzification!

This is the BEST vehicle I've ever owned and I've owned many. I don't need a full size truck and this Santa Cruz is the best blend between truck and comfortable sedan. There are too many features to list here but my main favorites are all of the safety features. Cameras and alert sensors everywhere that display and/or react to my driving mistakes and the mistakes of other vehicles. Hyundai wraps all that around a spacious, comfortable, well designed awesome interior and exterior lines. All of the technical features are well designed and easy to navigate either from the touch screen or the steering wheel controls. There's too much to list and it drives like a dream. I highly recommend the Santa Cruz to anyone who may be interested in this class of vehicle. You won't be disappointed!!

2023 Santa Cruz

I have owned my Sage Green 2023 Hyundai Santa Cruz for 3 months now. I have found it to fit the needs of my lifestyle perfectly! I can fit four adults & four sets of golf clubs easily. I also find it to be perfect for a four person trip to the nearby beaches! I am more than happy not to fill the back of our Santa Fe up with sand from the beach now that I have my Santa Cruz! It is very enjoyable to drive and I love the safety features that come stock with my SEL model. I haven't had a truck for over 10 years and this is as close as I want to be since this drives more like a car!

Awesome vehicle

Get compliments every week in this truck. Very fun to drive. Rugged truck feel and futuristic styling outside. Extremely comfortable inside and rides like a cloud. All the comforts of an SUV but with the benefits of a pickup bed!

Great looks and work great

It was a great idea that Hundai created a mix of SUV and pickup. The price is still on the right range for someone that want a powerful pick up but dont have 100k. the interior and flatbed has great spaces. Runs very smooth.

Towing capacity is deceptive.

The vehicle is great unless you want to tow the advertised 5000lb towing capacity. You need to add a brake controller that Hyundai does not make to tow more than 3500 lbs. The dealer also says if you add the aftermarket brake controller it voids the warranty.
