MY2025 Hyundai Santa Cruz small pickup truck details
Hyundai has just revealed its latest iteration of the Santa Cruz Sport Adventure Vehicle, marking a significant update for the 2025 model year. This announcement was made at the prestigious New York International Auto Show and was complemented by a digital unveiling. Hyundai’s design and executive teams, including Brad Arnold, José Muñoz, and Olabisi Boyle, highlighted the vehicle's extensive updates and emphasized its strategic importance to Hyundai’s product lineup, underscoring the company’s commitment to innovation and customer satisfaction.
The 2025 Santa Cruz distinguishes itself with a host of enhancements both inside and out. Notably, the vehicle boasts a redesigned exterior and interior, cutting-edge infotainment systems, and advanced driver assistance features. Set to hit dealerships in the summer, this model was conceived in California, encapsulating a blend of bold design and functionality.
A focal point of the new Santa Cruz is the XRT trim, which elevates the vehicle's off-road capabilities with features such as all-terrain tires, front tow hooks, and an improved approach angle. The trim also introduces exclusive aesthetic elements like XRT-specific front and rear bumper fascias, a new grille design, and unique 18-inch wheels.
Internally, the Santa Cruz steps up with a panoramic curved display that integrates both a driver information cluster and an audio-video navigation system, each spanning 12.3 inches. The design refresh extends to practical enhancements, including more intuitive center stack controls and increased storage options, enhancing the vehicle's ergonomics and utility.
Technological advancements are at the forefront, with Hyundai introducing wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto across all trims, alongside Over the Air updates for software and firmware. Additional features such as Hyundai Pay, a digital key, and a fingerprint scanner, alongside new safety technologies, position the Santa Cruz as a leader in connected and secure driving experiences.
Under the hood, the Santa Cruz offers two powertrain options: a standard 2.5L direct-injected engine and a more powerful 2.5L turbocharged variant, both designed to deliver a blend of power and efficiency. The introduction of a new towing mode for models equipped with the turbocharged engine highlights the vehicle's utility and performance capabilities.
With its comprehensive updates and new features, the 2025 Hyundai Santa Cruz is set to redefine the Sport Adventure Vehicle segment, offering an enticing mix of design, technology, and performance.

Most upgrade pickup truck Hyundai❤

[@JD-dm1uj]

I own the 2024 XRT, absolutely love it, amazing vehicle!

[@pashedmotatos]

Definitely a step up in terms of looks. The front still kinda needs some work though.

[@Ngoakomaphoto-y6g]

This pick up is sexy and i would like to order one

[@Greenwashedhipppie]

I dig it. Make one 15% bigger. V8 and 7,000 pound towing and I'd be a buyer

[@heaps.]

That's not what this vehicle is for, there are plenty of other vehicles for that.

[@vladimirrudenko352]

Полный привод есть ?

[@eddiemokgatlhe8145]

You guys must bring this car to South Africa, I wanna change to it when I trade Kona in

[@LonelyTigerGrowl]

Thee 2024 grill looks a lot better. On drawing the 25 looks great, but seeing it in 3D doesn’t do it justice.

[@williammceachern1791]

I think the more rugged/ macho look is the wrong direction. Aren’t you aiming for the smaller more economical truck market? The bigger blocky front end takes away from the sleeker more aerodynamic look. When will Hyundai get the hybrid version out?

[@ed-tM]

👍👍

[@ntznbgzt]

Need this for SEA market, maybe ev version would be great.

[@maxpower6658]

Some of the uodates sound ok. But hi5w about figuring out why their transmissions are giving owners issues after only 20,000 miles

[@Nagluka]

You have logo of lada on main 😂 rly

[@drewsterwa]

Is there any chance this will be available in the UK?

[@fportobr]

Might be difficult. Here in Brazil, we've been waiting for it for a long time in order to fight against many models in its size and class, but Hyundai builds it in the USA and is selling so well, they can't fullfill all orders in the US alone. They say it's impossible to build enough units for export, unless interested markets can build a factory for it.

[@bittertruth0000]

They are building it for US only .

[@CarAddictUK]

I think its likely. I reckon this may give the Ford Ranger a run for it's money, would be good to bring it to Europe.

[@choosealongerhandletocontinue]

Nope lol go to the us to get one. Honestly this is disappointing anyways because the maverick is way better

[@piotrkosinski3714]

❤❤❤❤😍😍😍🥰🎆🎆🩵

[@Crazypostman]

I would order one in a heartbeat if it was electric.

[@JM-xu3cr]

I doubt they'll make that mistake.
