The 2025 Hyundai Santa Cruz Makes Cruising a Pleasure

2025 Hyundai Santa Cruz

Whether you want to cruise down the road or help out at the job site, you’ll enjoy doing it behind the wheel of a 2025 Hyundai Santa Cruz. A pickup that offers the convenience of an SUV, the dual-natured Hyundai Santa Cruz is a standout in its hotly competitive class. To see how versatile and well-appointed the truck is, schedule a test drive at Kearny Mesa Hyundai.

Available Engines

When you road-test a Hyundai Santa Cruz, you’ll have multiple trims and two engines to choose from. The truck’s base engine is a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 191 horsepower and 181 lb-ft of torque. This powerplant pairs with an eight-speed automatic transmission and either front- or all-wheel drive.

An eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission and all-wheel drive are the perfect complements for the pickup’s turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine. The turbocharged engine generates 281 horsepower and 311 lb-ft of torque. Pickups with this powerplant can reach highway speeds quicker than trucks powered by the base engine.

Capabilities

The Hyundai Santa Cruz can tow and haul gear without breaking a sweat. Pickups with the base engine can tow up to 3,500 lbs with the appropriate equipment. Stepping up to a Hyundai Santa Cruz with the turbocharged engine increases the truck’s towing capacity to a maximum of 5,000 lbs.

Every Hyundai Santa Cruz comes with a four-foot-three-inch bed and a retractable, lockable tonneau cover. Even when the tonneau cover is closed, the truck can still haul as much as 27 cubic feet of cargo in its bed. A lockable storage box located under the bed serves as a cooler thanks to its built-in drain plug.

Standard Features

2025 Hyundai Santa Cruz Interior

New Hyundai vehicles have desirable amenities that increase their value proposition. Having undergone a refresh, the 2025 Hyundai Santa Cruz now has a curved dashboard display that features a 12.3-inch infotainment touchscreen and a 12.3-inch digital gauge display. Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ connectivity are standard, which is great news for tech enthusiasts.

As you’d expect, the Hyundai Santa Cruz is outfitted with laudable active safety equipment. A lane departure warning with lane-keeping assist is standard, for example. A forward collision warning and intervention system and a blind-spot monitor with a rear cross-traffic alert are also standard.
