A truck that rides as a near luxury sedan.

Albeit ride quality doesn't quite match my previous luxury sedan, it comes awfully close. Very comfortable, quite zippy but smooth. The technology works flawlessly. I am enjoying the 2025 Santa Cruz very much, as has near luxury ride with a truck bed.

Everything I expected it to be

Perfect little utility vehicle for me. My business truck is a Ford F350. The Santa Cruz saves me money on fuel when I use it for estimates or just to throw some tools and a ladder in the back for minor work. It's comfortable and handles well. Even though it's only a low budget SE I'm just fine with the way it's optioned.

My truck

I love it. I like its sleek lines and its pickup. I can do almost anything. I don't worry about whether something will fit inside. It's just enough for me. Handles well in wet weather. Easy to maintain.

Good with a few quirks...

This truck is just the right size for my application which includes mostly commuting with some light duty chores. Good looks, performance, and value and is very comfortable to drive daily.

Hyundai has come a long way, but I don’t think they’re there yet

Overall, I have a positive experience with my Santa Cruz, however, I think there are a few things that Hyundai could do to improve the vehicle

Smooth, quiet ride

Just took the truck on an out-of-state trip. The gas milage was pretty good. The ride was smooth and quiet. I love sitting up higher. Having some trouble with the bluetooth automatically activating my Spotify on my phone whenever I get in the car.

A great all-arounder

The Santa Cruz is a right-sized pick-up that has all the refinement of an SUV but with the flexibility of an open bed.

2025 Santa Cruz Limited

Smooth stable ride, quiet interior, excellent safety features, love the rolling cargo cover that can be locked. Dashboard is easy to work with and has all the features you would expect in a top of the line vehicle.
