=== RUGGED, VERSATILE, NO-ACCIDENT, NONSMOKER, UNLIKE-ANYTHING-ELSE CAPABILITY AWAITS! === The 2024 Hyundai Santa Cruz SEL continues to prove that a pickup truck doesn't have to ride or drive like a traditional body-on-frame truck. Built on a unibody platform shared with the Tucson, the Santa Cruz delivers genuine open-bed utility with a noticeably smoother, more car-like driving experience than conventional compact trucks. Finished in Phantom Black, this Santa Cruz pairs Hyundai's bold, distinctive styling with a genuinely comfortable, SUV-like cabin. Standard HTRAC all-wheel drive keeps this Santa Cruz ready for a wide range of weather and road conditions, all while retaining the open-bed versatility that sets it apart from every crossover in Hyundai's lineup. === WHY SHOPPERS BUY THIS MODEL === The Santa Cruz has carved out a genuinely unique position in the market by delivering real open-bed pickup utility without sacrificing the ride quality and everyday comfort of a crossover SUV. Its unibody construction gives it a noticeably smoother, quieter ride than traditional compact trucks, while still offering a genuine bed for hauling gear a crossover simply can't match. Buyers are also drawn to the Santa Cruz for its clever bed features, including a lockable tonneau cover and sealed underfloor storage bins that keep gear secure and protected from the elements. Rather than simply shrinking a full-size truck, Hyundai built the Santa Cruz around the idea of a genuinely usable bed paired with everyday car-like manners, which is exactly why it continues to draw buyers who want something different from the compact truck and crossover norm. === AUTOMOTIVE PRESS AND INDUSTRY RECOGNITION === Reviewers have consistently praised the Santa Cruz for riding and driving more like a well-sorted SUV than a traditional pickup, with several outlets specifically noting that it handles bumpy roads with a composure that few compact trucks can match. === WARRANTY === The odometer is hovering around the 7,824-mile mark, and it is STILL COVERED by the factory. === Remaining Transferable Factory Coverage === * Basic Limited Warranty * Covers repairs for defects in materials or workmanship across nearly every system on the vehicle. * Expiration: 07/22/2029 or 60,000 miles, whichever comes first. * Powertrain Limited Warranty * Covers the engine, transmission, and drive axle against defects. Please note that Hyundai's longer original-owner powertrain coverage does not apply here; for a subsequent owner, powertrain coverage matches the 5-year/60,000-mile Basic Limited Warranty term. * Expiration: 07/22/2029 or 60,000 miles, whichever comes first. * Anti-Perforation (Rust) Limited Warranty * Covers rust-through of body sheet metal panels. * Expiration: 07/22/2031 (7 years from the original in-service date, unlimited mileage). Extended service plans may also be available to provide additional peace of mind throughout your ownership experience. === STANDARD FEATURES === As the SEL trim, this Santa Cruz comes generously equipped from the factory, including an 8-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, dual-zone automatic climate control, and Hyundai's comprehensive SmartSense safety suite. These upgrades give the SEL trim genuine everyday comfort well beyond the base SE grade. === MECHANICAL FEATURES === Power comes from Hyundai's 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine, producing 191 horsepower and 181 lb-ft of torque. This engine delivers smooth, dependable power that suits the Santa Cruz's everyday mission well, whether commuting or hauling gear in the bed. An 8-speed automatic transmission keeps the engine in its ideal power band, while Hyundai's HTRAC all-wheel-drive system adds genuine traction and confidence in rain, snow, and other low-grip conditions. This Santa Cruz is rated to tow up to 3,500 pounds, giving owners useful flexibility for small trailers or recreational equipment. ==
