Santa Cruz 2023

Perfect everyday car. Use it for everything from driving into the office to using it moving large things/ dump runs. Bed of the truck never gets water in it with the package I went with so I can fit everyone in the cab and still fit everything I need in the bed without worry. No blind spots easy to drive, compact enough it's a perfect in-between of an suv and a truck. I tell everyone even if I could buy any car I'd still buy this one. It's a little unique compared to other vehicles. It is a small pickup but so far its never not handled what me as a homeowner would need my truck todo.

Unable to commit as only had a month.

The vehicle is beautiful and loved the color. Only wished my husband was able to enjoy it as much as he loved it and Korean make as I am Korean born and he finally bought this for me after 54 years of being married.

The very best!

Best ride and convenience, safety and more! First new vehicle in 25 years and I'm so thankful I chose the Santa Cruz. The color (Sage Gray) is the beautiful, although I think it should be Sage Green! Oh, well!

My experience was Awesome!!!

The vehicle is a great vehicle there are some things I wish it had. When I bought it. But all in all I love the vehicle. Ok for example wish it came with the weather mats, better head lights these are very dim, digital heat controls, and the diver and passenger windows tinted.

Excellent

I am very happy with my truck. Did not consider any other vehicle after seeing this and driving it. I would go back to the dealership again if I needed another vehicle. I have recommended the vehicle and dealership to others.

Santa Cruz limited is a vehicle that hits your eyes and pulls you in to look at closer.

Looks was first that hit me. Noise control was next. Comfortability was a must. Steering wheel adjustment was superb. The amount of space in the rear bed is just right for a retired person needing just the right amount of space to carry items in.

2023 Santa Cruz

Live my Santa Cruz. I would only change the headlight to xenon lights and the grill needs to covered more to repel road debris. Style, comfort, ride. All perfect. I get a lot of compliments and people wanting to know more about it.

Great Vehicle with minor issues. Super Fun

Minor interior and reliability issues. Roof rack whistled and ultimately I had to remove it. After a year the fans start to make noises on cold starts and the edge to the window is a bit uncomfortable on my elbow but not too bad. It’s super fun to drive and I feel safe and confident on the road. I love the styling and look forward to further improvements on the model as a whole.

Awesome Drive

One of the best vehicles that I have had and I have had a ton of them. Smooth ride, sturdy and very quiet inside from the outside noises. I absolutely love it except the gas mileage could be a bit better.

Love this vehicle

Fun to drive. The truck is smooth, quiet, and comfortable. The seats are the most comfortable of any vehicle I have ever owned. The performance is very good. All trucks have poor milage but this one high for a truck.

Santa Fe

Bough the Santa Cruz SEL Premium and love it! Have owned it for a year now and have put over 18000 miles on her. Still like new! This has all features of the Limited except leather and ventilated seats, which I did not want. Really enjoy the performance of the turbo and all wheel drive. Tows my boat easily. Just wish the bed was 5' long...

Good Blend of SUV and Truck

Bought a new 2023 SEL, overall happy with it although biggest complaint is that the non-LED headlights that came on it are terrible, huge safety issue. They corrected this on the 2024 models but have not made it possible to change them in my 2023. Have been happy with its versatility, good storage, rides well and is fairly quiet for a Truck/SUV. Handles well and plenty of power if your not a hot rodder. Pretty good in winter weather/roads but definitely need to use snow setting and will be putting better tires on it once factory one's wear out. Really like the looks but wish it was available in different colors (RED). Has been reliable so far but only 1 year old with 7500 mi's. Has met our need of an SUV and a Truck very well. Milage for mixed normal driving has averaged around 22/23, could be a little better and wish it would kick down to a lower gear when using the pedal like it does when using the cruze control. Assuming it maintains its reliability and durability we would consider another one down the road.

Works for me

I like the looks of the Santa Cruz. It drives and handles really well. Gets decent gas mileage. I have used it haul items for several projects around the house. Was impressed with how well it handled hauling several bags of concrete and gravel. I was getting 20 60 lb bags of concrete at a time. About the same of gravel. It was nice to have low tailgate level made it much easier. I like you can reach right over the side to get to things in the bed. I have used it to tow a Harley had no problems. I have had several trucks over my life from old small ranger to 1 ton trucks. For me this is right truck for what I need.

Just what I was hoping for

Like everything about this vehicle. MPG has excided my expectations. If I could improve one thing I would give it a little more rear seat leg room. No vehicle is perfect but I struggle to find anything wrong with this one.

Happy Traveler

I get complements all across the nation. There don't seem to be many in the East. I have people ask me about my vehicle all the time. Great style with an aggressive front end, very comfortable on long drives, love the smart cruse control.

One year anniversary

Vehicle continues to perform well. Performance and styling were critical in my purchase decision. Dealership was easy to work with, so much so that 3 months later I purchased a brand new Hyundai Elantra limited.

Santa Cruz Early Impression

Love the appearance and the interior leg and head room but surprised with the mediocre quality of sound system and integrated control capabilities. Difficult to learn the Bluetooth capabilities and operation.

They call this a truck?

since purchasing this Santa Cruz, I have been impressed with almost everything about it. The ride is smooth; the response is spectacular; and the quality is impressive. My wife fell in love with the looks of this vehicle the first time she saw one.
