Very satisfied

We purchased our Santa Cruz after much research. We had also ordered a new Ford Maverick Lariat. However we got tired of waiting so considered the Santa Cruz more seriously. Now that we have the Santa Cruz we are glad we bought it as we like it much better than the Maverick. So, when the Maverick finally arrives we will refuse it.

Outstanding Vehicle

To have a car, AND a pickup capability is great. I have had pickups and cars, and this one rides and drives like a car, yet I still have a bed if needed. Very smooth to drive (and fun). The only downside I have is the sound keeps going off. To fix it, I have to unplug the amp underneath the driver's seat and plug it back in. The dealership has ordered a new one.

Very Satified!

While I have only had my Santa Cruz a few weeks, I love it. When I am driving it, it feels like a regular SUV but has the added benefit of the truck bed which is great for me as I love to refinish furniture and am always picking up something that would not fit in my prior SUV. I have been stopped by friends to ask my what the vehicle is as it is so cute.

great truck with ride and handling of a sports car but truck bed utility

would recommend it to anyone, i got the NIGHT model because of the color and wheel package, if that doesn't matter get the Limited which has a few more options available. the ride and handling is awesome with great acceleration and braking.

Luv it!!!!!

Completely in love with my new Santa Cruz. Beautiful refined styling on the inside. Packed with every safety and convenience feature you could imagine. The bed is just the right size for me and the underbed storage is a great bonus.

This will be our forever truck!

We absolutely love our new Hyundai Santa Cruz truck! It drives great and is very comfortable. There is a lot of room in the truck and is a 4 door and seats 5 comfortably. The large screen for navigation is great!

Good power and economy. Stylish and fun to drive. Excellent interaction with phone. Sounds cool and locking bed cover is very smart. Nice color inside and out. Smart safety features and excellent lighting.

fantastic

This vehicle is well thought out with lots of very useful features. The Santa Cruz has lots of storage and the pickup bed is large enough for most homeowner needs. The Santa Cruz has more than enough power and handles very well. I would buy this again.

Powerful and stylish.

We looked for 2 years for a new vehicle. It had to have an ability to carry our equipment we use for our disaster relief but be an everyday vehicle when we are home. Check. Check. We looked at dealership but nothing could be found. We went on YouTube and say a few reviews of the new Santa Cruz. I called a dealership but there was none to be even trial driven. We took a leap and ordered a brand new SC and put all our preferences in it. It was easy enough. (Much easier than programming the phone pairing.) There is a lot of reading there. I would ask that they offer more paint and seat options. I am not fond of the leather used.

Feels great riding it

Did not know about car when shopping for new one. Was looking at either a Palisade or a Telluride when I saw this at the Hyundai dealership. Loved the style ,ride ,and features and had great towing capacity for the turbo model. So far so good have it 3 months no problems. People like the look and have had number of comments.

See below

We were looking for a smaller vehicle (as compared to a Ford F-150) that still provides adequate cargo space for hauling items to a cabin etc. The Santa Cruz behaves like a car, SUV etc but has a well sized "truck bed". The integrated tonneau cover is easy to handle, and the bed material does not require the purchase of additional protection (rhino lining etc). The standard safety features on this vehicle are comparable to what we see in the Genesis GV80 we also own.

Great all around vehicle

Thought I was going to have to get a "Basic B" crossover. Fortunately there's an alternative out there. Just enough suv and just enough truck. The bed is incredibly versatile. Under bed "trunk" for small items that would roll around. Lots of lighting in the back for unloading at night. Pulls my 5x10 trailer with ease when taking loads to the mulch center and landfill. Wish there was a tow mode. The driver assistance features are great. The interior is very nice and comfortable. Ride quality is great. I'm very pleased with my purchase.

Not like any other

I wanted something unlike all the other SUVs and we already had a pickup truck. I tried a car but then I saw the Santa Cruz Night! Perfect! This thing is sporty, has towing capability, rides comfortably on a long trip and it doesn’t look like every other vehicle! Love it!

Looks great, feels great. Could use more features.

Better to say what it could use then type. I have ideas that would benefit Hyundai this truck is very advanced for what it is. However, again, it is better to speak it, then type it. This truck has so much potential.

Just test drive it!

This truck is amazing for its size. It feels like a sports car, with truck capabilities. The 2.5L Turbo engine is remarkable. It has great pickup and some really great safety features. The truck has its own look and style. Very smooth looking, with a really cool sparkling clear coat.

good truck

I love this truck. I purchased this for all wheel drive and a small pickup bed it took care of both of my needs. I was going to buy a Toyota pickup but I saw this on the lot and really liked the look. I took it for a drive and bought it on the spot.
