Santa Cruz 25

This is the vehicle I have wanted for more than a year. And for the most part it is everything I had hoped it would be. There are just a couple of vaguely incomprehensible items that are annoying. 1) the safety warnings are vibrational and do not provide enough detail as to there warning. 2) too often there is either a warning that I am straying from the road surface when in fact nothing could be further from the truth 3)a moderate amount of warning that perhaps I should pull over and take a coffee break-not true4) the radio has slight infrequent cutouts where it sounds like a skip on scratched vinyl record

I love the looks, ride and comfort of my vehicle. I've driven it on a 15hr road trip and was not disappointed in it!

Great all around vehicle

Great balance between comfort, efficiency, size, and utility. Whether it’s driving your daily commute, or taking a trip to the local hardware store and picking up some mulch. It can get it done. I do believe it needs more horsepower though. Vehicle really seems lacking, especially when you turn the ac on. Little nervous on that. I did not want a turbo, especially paired with the dual clutch transmission. All in all I’m very happy with it and love this Santa Cruz SEL Activity.

Bbbbbbbbbbbbb

I would not have bought the vehicle if I knew it did not come with parking sensors. You should have a shut off for parking sensors when towing It an important feature also key fob to big takes up half my pocket!!! Customer care number is useless they read from a manual and can’t troubleshoot tried three different agent with no results. USELESS!!!!

Dual Clutch.

I like the truck, but do not like the dual clutch. It is the worst when you back up and then try to go forward. It hesitates. I don't trust it to go off-road or tow anything, even though they say you can, due to past breakdowns. On the other hand, the truck is very fast and fun to drive. I would buy another one if you get rid of the clutch.
