Love my little truck!

Couldn’t find another affordable front wheel drive truck. It was perfect for what I needed. The electronics are wonderful and use. Drivers seat is very nice! Only things I wished it had that it doesn’t have on my truck is heated steering wheel and non-white seats.

2025 Santa Cruz

I only have 550 miles on it so far, but so far I like all the safety features. Still learning what all the buttons do. I went from a Toyota Sequoia. This truck has enough power for me.

Santa cruz

Matrock has just a little over 3000 miles. It's only a year old I've had just manner glitches and went over. I have taken it in to have it service. The service department, it is wonderful.They take up a lot of time with me.And explain everything. I have an appointment next week because there is a recall on my truck that I feel like will fix the small problems that I have plus I am getting mud flaps install.

My 25 versus my 24

Overall the vehicles are almost identical. I am disappointed that the 25 even though it has the activity package as a trim level not an option as on the 24 did not have built in navigation, or the ability to upgrade. My wife purchased a 25 Tucson Hybrid SEL Convenience with the same glass dash and display and it is equipt with it. Every time I start the truck I have to set the display like it. After 2 months I am beginning to miss the seat covers of the 24.

Great truck for a mature woman!

I needed a small truck to take trash to the dump. I also am an animal foster and I sometimes have to carry kennels and crates to different places. The Santa Cruz is perfect for me- easy to drive and park in parking lots, easy to get into and when I take my 99 year old Father places, it is very easy to put a wheelchair into the bed of the truck. I am very glad I bought it.

I researched and reviewed and studied what was available. It is perfect for me and I love how the display is and how many people tell how sharp it looks

It's a fun entry level truck to own.

I've always wanted a very light duty truck to own. SUVs are nice but the cargo space is limited. I know you can fold seats down but you want to protect the interior from damage. The tech keeps getting better with newer Hyundai cars.

Wonderful little truck!

I have owned a 25 Santa Cruz for about 3 months now. It is my daily driver and it has been great. I have hauled a handful of things with it already and though it was tight with some watch straps I made it work. The technology in it is all you need right now I will be happy to own it for 10-15 years.
