Best of both worlds

This vehicle has all you need, great handling, good power, technology and also versatility. If you're not working in construction or any other job that requires loading big stuff this truck has enough space for you.

Everything I need in a vehicle and more.

I believe this is the do it all vehicle for any size family carry the kids their stuff for games and some of their friends to.For us we always buy stuff that don’t usually fit well in a car but the small box is a god set for not having to tear up the inside of the car.

Vehicle is just average

Vehicle is average, nothing fancy for what they charge for the car, hugely under powered and way too small of gas tank, spend more time at gas station than driving. Mileage is way worse than advertised as any wind, hill it can not climb. Back seat too small to fit adults so don't plan on having and back seat passengers over the age of 10....Car seat may not even fit

Hyundai needs to correct possible deadly malfunction.

Serious problem. May cause death and serious injury. Needs to be seriously addressed by a trained mechanic. Computer did not find any problem. Almost in an accident due to problem.

Perfect vehicle for me.

This vehicle is smaller than my past pick-up trucks, that kept getting larger. So, is perfect for me as a smaller person. The bed is perfect size too for hauling wood pellets, going to the recycling center and similar tasks.

Great vehicle for my needs!

I needed the bed for smaller item hauling but didn't need a full-sized work bed. I wanted the comfortable ride and reliability. The Santa Cruz met my expectations, and with the turbo, exceeded them.

Forward radar.

So far I am very pleased with my Santa Cruz, I do have one complaint. There are warnings for left and right sides but no forward warning or slowing down in cruse control; nor forward radar. Other than that I am very happy with the vehicle.
