Excellent

Overall excellent, memory seats is the only feature that I would add. I would like to see a slightly larger fuel tank and possibly a hybrid version. This is a great looking vehicle and very functional. I will recommend to everyone

Love the santa cruz

Awesome vehicle. As with any vehicle it has pros and cons. The pros outweigh the cons 10 fold. The power is amazing with the 2.5 turbo and all wheel drive. It's very comfortable to drive and ride in. The only real con I would say it has is the bed lights don't come on when you let down the tailgate. I'd love to see this in the future.

Beautiful ride with just enough storage.

Hyundai Santa Cruz is something people really needed. A truck capacity without the trucky feel. It's a perfect size & drive for people that don't want an oversized, under used truck. Hyundai understands how much of a vehicle will really get used vs. too much.

Loving my new ride!

I test drove a lower model with without the turbo. I elected to purchase the Limited with the turbo for better performance. I also wanted the features that included heated seats and steering wheel. I am impressed with the overall design and functionality.

Great styling, smart and comfortable !

Couldn't get a Maverick so I bought this as the dealer had a few on lot. Its better than the Maverick ! More solid and better quality. Nice interior styling and smart storage solutions. Feels way more expensive than the Maverick. And I get around 30 MPG so fuel economy is pretty good too !

Love my Santa Cruz

I fell in love with the Santa Cruz design when it was just photos of the concept vehicle. I waited impatiently for the Santa Cruz to be actually produced and I am absolutely thrilled. It is exactly what I hoped for and more.

All positive so far

The total package is great to look at and great to drive. The turbo engine has more than enough power to get you out into busy traffic. Interior features including the Bose system make trips enjoyable. Safety features help keep you aware of your surroundings. The truck bed allows transport of loads but is short enough to allow the truck to fit in the garage.

Excellent

Couldn’t have found a better vehicle for the price. Styling and vehicle warranty are the best in the business. Having a 2015 Tucson currently, made my decision that much easier. Was going to purchase a Ford Maverick but when I saw the Santa Cruz and started to compare both, the Santa Cruz blew the Maverick out of the water in all phases.

Sporty and efficient

Purchased this for my primary work vehicle. I'm in outside sales and use this to visit job sites and haul small amounts of materials to my work crews. This is a great improvement in comfort and efficiency over my previous full size pickup truck. I really enjoy the roominess of the inside of the vehicle as well as the styling. It has all wheel drive so traveling in central Ohio during the winter will be no issue. Anyone looking for a great vehicle to commute and haul a marginal amount of stuff in an open bed will be happy with this vehicle.

Love this vehicle. Have been following it since it was a concept vehicle. I’m 6’4”, wish it had just a little more leg room for rear seat passengers. Safety features vs price a huge plus in choice of this manufacturer.

It's as cool as it looks!

The 2023 Santa Cruz limited is actually a reasonably powerful truck as well as being a comfortable SUV. For the price the mileage is also reasonable for being able to tow 5000lbs. Best feature is the cruise control with automatic steering. Honestly I look forward to driving this car on the highway just to use that feature.

Pretty Good

First of all, I like blue stone color. About my car, so far so good. However I don't appreciate one thing. When my car is unlocked, announce me every 4 min!! It should be depending on a person or location or a person's habit. Tx

Fun, functional, and beautiful!!

I love this compact truck! Not only is it stylish, but its safety features are amazing. In addition, this truck pulls my boat beautifully. I don't even notice it's there. And the gas mileage is out of this world. I drive in SMART mode and have an average of 30mpg! When I go camping, I fill the under bed storage with ice, food and beer! It's the little features like the built in "cooler" that make this truck so much fun!

Small Truck Meets my Current Needs

Bought new, traveled to another state 220 miles to avoid the local market adjustment of $5000. Home Skelton Hyundai, Olive Branch, MS, doesn't add market adjustment. Local dealership has ordered a new antenna for my vehicle which will hopefully allow my radio to receive FM stations. I haven't had FM since delivery over a month ago. I'm thankful for the SiriusXM trial period otherwise I would be driving a quiet Santa Cruz. Factory should check radio function before shipping vehicle to dealer. I do like my Santa Cruz and that's the only problem I've experienced.

I don't have to many complaints about this santa cruz. It's my first new ride and I love it so far. The style sets it apart from anything else. Lots of get up and go with the turbo. Decent gas mileage. My new favorite color, hampton gray.
