great little truck once (or if) kinks are out

Could be a good vehicle but has some annoying flaws. Hopefully Hyundai will fix flaws

Hyundai Cruz pros and cons

What you’re able to do with the app., makes it so convenient when it comes to starting the vehicle and locking your doors, very nice. The fact that it can drive by itself is nice. The style, the comfortability, only adds to how nice this vehicle is. It’s very economical. I don’t know what else does it have that you like. Love the heated seats! The size of the LCD screen makes it easy to read and use.

Blue

I love my Santa Cruz. I call it my girl truck. I am 68 years old and I have been wanting one for 3 years. My husband finally gave me one for my birthday 9-12. I am disappointed that they told me it had a phone charging pad but it turned out after about 3 weeks of not getting it to work I never had that feature. Not good!! I love driving my girl truck. This is my very first Hyundai. I have always been a Nissan girl. I hope it doesn’t let me down.

Overall excellent

I love it, there is 1 feature i can't turn off that's annoying-the 1 suggesting I take a coffee break when I weave off the main rd a bit. I live in NH, lots of windy roads. It happens a lot.

Great Vehicle

I have not put a lot of miles on it yet just 800 but I Love it. For a Four cylinder it has really good pickup. And all the technology and alerts make me feel safe.

Habitual Hyundai

This is our twelfth Hyundai since 1996, and if my Santa Cruz retains the Hyundai reputation, we will retain it.

Love the Santa Cruz - Dealership not so much

The vehicle is everything that I thought it would be. Like the way it handles, access, controls and over all appearance. It would have been a great experience if the dealership was not so hard work with. The first salesman did not listen, could not find the vehicle, and also did not return phone calls. I contacted Key Hyundai after 8 to 10 days of not getting responses. The General Manager actual talked to me connected me with a sales manager. The second salesman was very good (Freddy Duran). But the dealership could not find the second set of keys and the sales manager was rude. The finance manager was very good and went through everything with us. We also ordered and bed extender that took some time to come in, and when it did, it had deep scratches into the metal and showed sliver through the paint. A second sales manager told me that if I accepted the bed extender, they would refund me $250. It has been over a month since the last meeting and I have not seen a check or an email related to the money.

Great small truck

Fun vehicle to drive, truck body is small but works when needed ( like hauling 4x8 sheets of plywood) On long trips interior is fairly quiet and seats are comfortable. Santa Cruz has plenty of power in passing. Dash layout could be better. Would love to have multiple screens with phone, map, radio, clock and compass, but it’s not an issue as is.

Stylish pickup for people who do not like or want a pickup truck

The limited is powerful, very handy, seats 4 comfortably for long drives, has great tech (with one caveat), and looks cool
