Best new car I’ve owned

The funnest vehicle I’ve ever owned. Overall value, warranty, customer service are all completely above and beyond with Hyundai. The value of the technology is stupendous, compared to similar brands and models.

overall good ride

This is a good all-around vehicle. The wife can use it during the week for daily transportation needs. The interior is pleasant, and the ride is smooth. The husband can use it to haul materials for his light DIY projects on the weekends.

Turns heads and gets many compliments

Eye catching from every angle. Fun, fun, fun to drive. Very comfortable and pleasant to ride in. Back row is spacious. The unique looks drew me in. Towing capacity was a surprise. The safety features and cameras everywhere had me seriously wanting one. Was the price reasonable? Yes, yes it is! Great gas mileage, visibility while driving, handles really well, fast acceleration if I want it, fantastic warranty. Got one! Love it! Getting many compliments and questions.

Fun to Drive

This is a good looking quality vehicle. Some of the storage space of an SUV is lost because of the "truck" nature of the vehicle. One feature that would be very useful is a slide out shelf for the pick up bed to make it easier to get to any items in the front of the bed.

Question is somewhat vague and unclear

Vehicle has now been purchased for over 4 wks and has fewer than 350 miles. Only been driven for a few minutes at night so we still have a lot to experience. I can sy that so far we are extremely pleased with the the purchase.

Great work & play

This is a great car ... Sport Activity Vehicle ... for the inspection business I own, and light work around the house. If I need to carry more, I hook it up to the trailer and make it happen. Otherwise, I like the luxury look I get when on my personal time.

This is the one!

I have wanted a Santa Cruz since I first laid eyes on one. I told myself that they were impractical but that didn't work . Once I drove one it was just a matter of getting the deal I was looking for and I bought it. Not sorry, I Love It!!!!

Looks great and easy to handle

Great for a weekend getaway to the mountains and fun to drive on the freeway when you need to get somewhere fast. Great features like built in cooler in truck bed and outlet. Driver assist and rear cross traffic warnings work great.

I like the styling, engine and maintenance gurantee.

The vehicle rides nice, its quiet, the controls are easy to use and it has many safety features that I like. It has nice styling, all wheel drive, and I can hall some items that I couldn't with my old vehicle.

Perfect vehicle for everyday!

Perfect to get around town, great comfort for long trips perfect for weekend beach and camping trips All the features that come with for the price is the reason we chose the Santa Cruz. We love it. Gave us everything we were looking for

Excellent Vehicle in every way!

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this truck! She HANDLES GREAT, is VERY COMFORTABLE and has a VERY SLEEK interior and exterior design. I've leased from Toyota, Jeep, and Nissan over the last 15 years, never rented the same model a 2nd time - but as soon as I drive this gal it was love - I had to own this beauty!!

Vehicle and service is of the lowest quality. Mine is a lemon. Don't know about the rest.

Was excited to get my Santa Cruz, but Rubbed and burnt wires and bad vibration from lane centering keep assist is horrible. Stuck tonneau cover. The service department is (very bad word here). Won't return calls. Cant get straight answers. They have had my vehicle more than I have. Waiting for fix.

Fun and practical with good room and features

Good looking fun truck with good connectivity and lots of sensible features. Driver assist features and the level of comfort makes long trips less tiring. Fuel economy is gre4at for a small truck, especially considering it's turbocharged. It's also nice that the engine is powerful and only requires regular, not premium because of the dual fuel injection system. The 8-speed wet clutch gearbox is tuned right and the throttle isn't laggy. Highly recommended!

Love this Truck!

I love the way the truck looks, and it drives great. I have had many favorable comments. Paint job is cool with the sparkles in the paint and exterior door handles & mirrors. The bed of the truck is engineered for easy use.

Easy to purchase easy to drive

So this is just a winner! Great color, performance, and a 5 year warranty? People stop us to comment on this car all the time. Price is reasonable too. You will not regret this purchase! Also, I never drove a truck before, but this rides like a car.

A Great Buy

This vehicle replaced another crossover and this is a great vehicle. It has lots of features, is stylish, fun to drive, and a great deal. The Hyundai warranty is second to none and we got awesome financing.

My Santa Cruz SEL Premium is better than most therapists :)

The Santa Cruz SEL Premium is a tech loaded, practical, sporty, comfortable vehicle... frankly, buying it from Jim Click my local Hyundai dealer, and owning and using is the most enjoyable vehicle experience of my life, and I've had many. The purchase experience was fair, professional, informed, and stress free. As to the vehicle itself, I love everything about the Santa Cruz, but here are the stand-outs: I love the voice command enabled nav system to find addresses... I no longer worry about finding or navigating to destinations. I love the lane keep, following distance, cruise control combination... that has noticeably reduced a lot of the stress of driving for me. I love the flawless Bluetooth integration with my phone... super convenient, and again stress reducing. I love the hands-free voice command capability for calling and dictating texts... did I mention stress reducing? The bed adds practicality that meets my hauling needs perfectly... I've hauled dogs, a hide-a-bed couch, a recliner, entertainment center, groceries, yard supplies (not all at the same time, lol).
