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.

2025 Hyundai Santa Cruz

Very nice vehicle that has great gas mileage, provides you a fairly quite on the interstate and is comfortable on the long drives; but if you plan on doing any camping or using the Santa Cruz to haul anything, then you will be disappointed as the towing limit is weak 3500lbs and payload is only 1100lbs with 2 people on-board.

Could be better.

Attention to detail is lacking. Hastily put together. No parking sensor. Could be a better vehicle at the price point for the higher trim.

This vehicle is suited for a person who is under 6 feet.

The vehicle is close to the ground and you do not need a step up to get in. Very comfortable to drive around town or going on trips. Several people wish to see inside and ask what features I am most impressed with. It hard to choose but I rate the electronic display as one of the best. The heat seats and steering wheel are very comfortable with someone with joint pains. The weather has not been hot enough to check out the air conditioning seats and temperature control, but I think it will rate as good or better than the heating.

Does what I need it to do, but is lacking a few things that would've made it a perfect "10".

It’s a wonderful little car.

It’s a great little car. Fun to drive. I went from a Chevy Silverado and this is perfect for me. I’m getting around 34 miles a gallon.
