Introducing the 2025 Hyundai Santa Cruz

The sporty 2025 Hyundai Santa Cruz is a modern pickup with a playful personality, comfortable interior amenities, and a work-ready towing capacity of up to 5,000 lbs on models like the SEL Activity AWD. Explore the highlights of this sleek truck today.

The easy-going Santa Cruz is equipped with a 2.5-liter I4 powertrain with an output of 191 horsepower and 181 lb-ft of torque. This model has a standard front-wheel driveline, but you can opt for the available HTRAC AWD system if you anticipate off-road driving, heavy hauling, or driving in inclement weather conditions. An eight-speed automatic transmission and selectable drive modes round out the powertrain configuration.

In terms of capabilities, the entry-level Santa Cruz with a front-wheel drivetrain has a maximum towing capacity of 3,500 lbs when equipped with trailer brakes. A four-pin trailer pre-wiring system is also part of the standard equipment package, along with a self-leveling rear suspension to compensate for a heavy haul that weighs down the backend of the truck.

Exterior

The Santa Cruz comes with sensible exterior features, like durable 18-inch alloy wheels that are strong enough to withstand off-roading stress. Bi-LED headlights and LED daytime running lights ensure road visibility, particularly on cloudy days or when bright headlights are unnecessary. High beam assist automatically switches the high beams off when oncoming traffic is detected to improve road safety for all.

The truck bed area features a lockable storage compartment beneath the bed so you can store equipment or emergency supplies out of sight. Additional built-in storage is located in the sidewalls of the bed. This truck has a multi-functional tailgate with assisted open and close for easy cargo loading, a remote release tailgate, and integrated rear bumper steps so you can hop into the truck bed more easily.

Interior

The truck cabin is primed for connectivity with two dual USB ports located in the front and rear rows. A rearview monitor with embedded parking guidance makes it much easier to reverse into a parking space or back the truck close to a hitch. The standard proximity key enables keyless vehicle entry and push-button ignition, while a remote start system allows you to warm the engine before vehicle entry.

This model has a 12.3-inch infotainment interface that can host mirrored apps via Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. You can use hands-free Bluetooth connectivity to wirelessly stream your favorite tunes without third-party app syncing. HD Radio is also standard, along with a trial for satellite radio.

The Santa Cruz is an ideal sport-tuned truck for contemporary drivers who appreciate dynamic performance and convenient connectivity technology. Learn about current finance offers at Dorsett Hyundai in Terre Haute, IN.
