The Hyundai Santa Cruz is an all-new vehicle from Hyundai. The Santa Cruz has the power and efficiency of a midsize truck combined with the comfort of a passenger vehicle. Although the Santa Cruz has some truck-like qualities, it is also agile and efficient enough to navigate easily down city streets around Tonawanda.
The Santa Cruz can be customized in just about any way you see fit at Northtown Hyundai, and it is equipped with a wide array of safety aids and creature comforts. A strong turbo engine is also available for the Santa Cruz to provide extra power and strength when you need it.
Power and Performance
Currently, the Hyundai Santa Cruz offers two gasoline engines. More engines may be available later, but the two engines provide plenty of power for the 2022 Santa Cruz. The base engine on the truck is a 2.5-liter engine with four cylinders.
The second engine is virtually the same but is turbocharged while the base engine is not. For power, you will get a total of 191 horsepower and 181 pound-feet of torque using the base engine. The second engine adds a turbo charge to the base engine's capability to provide even more power and torque. The second engine on the Santa Cruz increases its power rating to 281 horsepower, producing a respectable 311 pound-feet of torque.
An automatic eight-speed is the Santa Cruz's standard transmission. The transmission is also quick-shifting and has dual-clutch technology for convenience around Williamsville. The Santa Cruz tows up to 5,000 pounds, and it comes with precise and responsive steering and handling. The Hyundai Santa Cruz also has all-wheel-drive and a multi-function gate on the tail end.
Interior and Components
The Hyundai Santa Cruz has a standout interior that includes various nice features and components. The Santa Cruz also has comfortable seats and a relatively smooth and quiet ride. Unlike many trucks, you can enjoy a smooth ride with the Santa Cruz even when choosing the larger wheel size. High quality materials add to the seat comfort level on all trim levels, although you'll find various seating materials depending on trim.
The Hyundai Santa Cruz has a standard 8.0-inch display screen to start with, but you can get a larger 10.25-inch screen for better visibility and easier use. Hyundai is also a leader in technology, and the Santa Cruz shows off all the latest that the automaker offers. The Santa Cruz is decked out in infotainment features that include standard wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto to keep you connected around Buffalo.
Safety Features
A number of safety aids are standard, including forward collision avoidance, lane-keeping assist, pedestrian detection, and a driver-attention monitoring system. The higher-end trims add more technology and safety aids such as a safe-exit feature, rear cross-traffic alert, and blind-spot monitoring.
Bluelink, voice-controlled infotainment, and a Hyundai Digital Key are all conveniences that you can add to any trim level of the Santa Cruz for additional comfort and convenience.
