For a light truck it’s good

For a late truck it’s good. It’s not meant to be a heavy truck. It’s very comfortable handles well as great options in with a turbo it’s powerful although I don’t think it should have a duel clutch transmission or at least you should have a choice between that and heat speed out automatic.

Best upgrade for an SUV

I have driven smaller SUVs for years. The Kona N was my last, and I loved it. Except there's not enough hauling capacity. So I drove the Santa Cruz and fell in love. It's essentially a medium sized SUV with a 4 foot truck bed instead of the hatch. It rides well, looks great, and fits my life.

Santa Cruz - I will trust this truck for my children’s first vehicle

I love this truck! Everything about it is great, although the space in the back seat is a bit tight. There are many features that make driving a safe experience. The truck bed is designed so well. Love the sun roof. Appreciate all the extra details inside. I recommend the warranties and life long oil changes. Hanford Hyundai is a blessing to work with.

Not dependable and it looks like the 2024 will be more of the same.

Well, this is my second one, the first a 2022. No improvement. An overpriced box on wheels. The dealer gave me the '24 plus a few bucks for this '24 Had no miles on it, but neither did the '22. Dang little things are fun to drive, no doubt. They're cute, and rather puzzling. They're not much good for, anything except maybe, grocery getting and getting around town, short trips and such.

Almost perfect all-around vehicle

Everything I hoped the Santa Cruz to be. Only real complaint is that it's not offered with a hybrid drivetrain.

Should have waited a few more months and bought 2025 model

I purchased with tow hitch and harness that was to be installed by dealer. There was a recall on hitch harness that was not disclosed to me, and it took 14 months to get resolved

IDK about the Santa Cruz I would pass and buy an F150

The vehicle keeps on over heating on longer trips and I just did a coolant flush just to help this truck stay cooler. I kinda wish I didn't buy this but and buy an F150 instead.

Great Small Truck

Have had this for a year. No it’s not a truck, yes it’s more versatile than an SUV! Rides very smooth, peppy turbo 4 and great gas mileage! Like it a lot!
