Great little truck. Turn off the steering wheel camera!!!

I really like just about everthing about my Hyundai Santa Cruz. It looks great, handles great, and is very comfortable to drive. But the steering wheel camera can't recognize my full face when I wear dark wraparound sun glasses. So it shuts off my safety features.......... dumb!

No power

Does not have enough power for me, rides like a low end 4 cylinder vehicle, for being brand new you would expect some power drive behind it, cant imagine how it will run 2 years from now

Hyundai Santa Cruz

We are leasing this vehicle and have had it for almost a month now. We are enjoying the ride and the technology. I always get compliments on the color! Blue Stone! I loved the color and it is one of the reasons I picked this particular vehicle as opposed to all the white Santa Cruz's out there! It is very comfortable. The mirrors and cameras made parking a breeze.

Wiring harness for trailer

For the most part this is a great truck. But hooking up a wiring harness for a trailer is insane (should be preinstalled on any truck). First you can only buy it straight from hundai for $240. Then you must connect 1 wire under the dash which involves alot of work. Very bad design for something made to pull a trailer

Santa Cruz

It is a nice ride but we have had parts falling off we have had it less than. 3 months and the wheel wells are separating and the black strips on the top of the truck came off about a month ago ago. We went to Hyundi of Yuma and the gave us attitude to start and where upset we didn’t purchase from them. But we live in Yuma and their Customer service has gone way down lately.

Retired Cinderdick for the Railroad.

The most important thing about this vehicle is the safety and reliability that is the standard for Hyundai Motor Company. I also like the fuel economy that this vehicle has and the fact it has a very good warranty.

Love my 2025 Santa Cruz

I bought my 2025 Hyundai Santa Cruz a couple months ago. I am loving it. It has such a smooth ride. The interior is beautiful. The sound system is amazing. The display panel is huge and I love that since I use my gps a lot! It’s perfect for me. If there was one thing I would change is, when you have the cruise on and get to close to the vehicle ahead of you it doesn’t slow you down to a set car length like my Santa Fe did. I liked that feature. But regardless, I’m loving my new Santa Cruz!!
