The top of the line

The luxurious essence of the limited is found in the front bumper to the power tailgate

Santa Cruz

After 4 months of ownership my Santa Cruz has been outstanding in all categories, I replaced the tires with a better brand of tire---that improved dry and wet stopping and handling in general , also ride comfort.

A great girl truck

Upgraded from 2020 Sante Fe, good vehicle choice for my second Hyundai. Response is excellent, good pick-up thanks to turbo option. Hope to remain a Hyundai buyer

Hyundai 2025 Santa Cruz Limited

Overall, I am extremely pleased with the car. Best value I have ever had for a car I paid for considering options and everything I have.

So far, I love it.

I bought the top of the line model. Well worth the extra cost. Plenty of power.

All Aboard the Santa Cruz!

I love this vehicle! Fun to drive, plenty of passenger and cargo room, good fuel economy, rides and handles great! I had a guy following me one day on a backroads in southern Maine-35-40mph, windy curves and several rises in the road. This guy is flashing his lights, beeping his horn-I finally stop. I get out and meet this elderly gentlemen in a Subaru Forester. I ask if everything's alright? He says, "oh yeah, everything's fine. I have that wagon over there and miss my truck-tell me about this thing you're driving! So I sold him on the virtues and gave a "walk around " in the middle of nowhere! He is a retired police officer and was very impressed watching the Cruz handle the road with ease!

Vehicle is just so - so ...

Between the crummy DCT and jerky clutch issues, to the less than decent air and heating of the HVAC system, the small truck is transportation.. Wish it were better !!!

So, so good.

We made our decision based on the towing capacity of the Santa Cruz, but we have not used it for towing as of today but are confident in it's ability. To our surprise we have been pleased with the vehicle's quality, the comfort and safety features.
