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

So far, I love it.

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

I'm really enjoying my new car

Rides great, get compliments on that. A lot to learn about it and enjoying doing it, and love the Sage color.

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!
