Cool looking and easy to live with, great on gas too!

It does a lot of things right for a good price. The cool styling is a bonus. Great all-around family vehicle.

Overall a complete disappointment.

The Blue link has never worked and has taken months to repair. Awaiting replacement hopefully this week. The towing ability is non-existent. The vehicle is not able to tow. There is no available towing wiring harness. The owner's manual, online Hyundai videos and the dealership all ,lied. This vehicle is not able to tow anything.

great mid size truck

a wonderful solution for me, in which I only do light hauling. I have the limited version, which I do wish the interior were closer to a calligraphy line. The vehicle fits in the garage nicely and has a very smooth ride.

A true utility vehicle

What I believe is important about the Hyundai Sant Cruz XRT I purchased a mere five months ago is that it is a true utility vehicle for any family, outdoorsman, off or on-road use. While it would take some time to go over all the attributes that make this vehicle the amazing truck it is, all you need to know is that you can tow a boat, put a tent on top and sleep in it, drive 4-5 people to a baseball game with full equipment, carry supplies for home improvement, or go off-roading just about anywhere except the extreme. It is the everything truck and I am happy I bought it. Couple that with the fact I'll basically never have to worry about repairs because of the amazing warranty and we have a winner.

Fun little truck

My Santa Cruz is a fun little truck to drive. There's plenty of room in the back seat for my large dogs and the bed is big enough for most hauls. I am planning to purchase a bed extender for my kayaking trips though

Lots to love.

Lots to love. Nice interior. Up to date tech including Bluelink app. Love the design and the little touches with the bed. Vehicle is exactly what I was looking for and I've put it to good use, hauling bikes, etc.. Vehicle does feel underpowered and some of the driver assist systems seem a little quirky.
