Love my Hyundai Santa Cruz I first saw one about 10months ago and knew its whAt I wanted. I’m a 73yo woman getting lots of people asking me about it. My 30something sons love it too. Youve told me a couple things I wasn’t aware of (like locking trunk) so I’m headed out to play with it.
Your video is really helping me...I love the Santa Cruz..I drove one two years ago at the dealership..and tomorrow my 2024 limited is being delivered..so thanks..!!...wish it had the hologram speed on the front window..I also have a 2022 Sante Fe which I also love driving
Heck I own one of these (Sage Gray Limited here in the US) and I'm learning some new things - I've messed around with most of these settings already but some of the descriptions aren't 100% clear so this is great info. The no physical buttons is a downside regardless when you do have to adjust something you have to look away from the road - I was sort of used to it having owned a Ford Edge Sport that used the same capacitive touch "buttons" - they weren't as good as these but it's still a downside. Loving my Santa Cruz though and am very happy with the cartruckthing!
Great to hear. I’m undecided between the gray and the light blue but the more I watch videos I’m thinking gray is the way to go. That blue is nice but a little to light in color for a dudes truck I think 🤔
Your not boring and you are better than others. I have picked up 4 sheets of plywood and it was no problem. The guy was laughing but not anymore! All the guys were amazed ! Another secret. Just bounce the rear and it pumps it up ! Very kool
I love my Sage Ultimate ...but I'm still in the camp who wants buttons and knobs in the center stack!! I can live with it, because I loooooooooooooooove this vehicle, but buttons and dials would make me happier. I get why they have it though .. if it was all controlled through physical buttons and knobs, all of the automated software-based controls would be lost. So I accept the trade-off, even if it's not my personal preference. My first thoughts on the 'cube' display were that it's weird. Turns out, it's the one I use all the time now. It's the only mode that gives me a digital speed readout while still being able to use the center of the display to show other vehicle information. I normally leave it on the adaptive cruise display. I find it interesting to see how the ACC spots vehicles and adjusts based on where you set the follow distance. I do still find both dash displays a bit too bright at night. They're fine at night if you're somewhere with street lights, but when you're up in the vast nothingness of NW Ontario in the dark ... they're still quite bright at level 1. I've seen some reviews complain about "wasted space" next to Android Auto/Apple Car Play on the 10.25" display - and that's because the "use split screen" option is off by default. Turn that on and the little side display is actually quite useful. Especially if you're using say Google Maps while listening to SiriusXM/FM/AM radio - it's displayed with your song info on the side. Weather/forecast info, clock, compass with lat/long/elevation ... I really like having all of that stuff there. I wish there was a mini settings screen available on that split too though. That would be sweet. Or that it gave you a way to flip back to Sirius/FM/AM if you are streaming audio from AA/CP. Still have to flip back to the radio display and then back to your phone projection. If it's there while you're listening to the radio, having it there - with your presets - when you're not would be fantastic. Got my winter tires/wheels ordered last weekend, went with 18" wheels since that's what I wanted in the first place. Could not convince the dealer to swap the 18s off their Trend demo for the life of me. LOL Still pretty tough to find rims that fit the specs of the Santa Cruz, and it really doesn't show up anywhere under the "select vehicle" options. If anyone is looking, the pattern is 5x114.3, offset is +49.5, and bore is 67.1mm. That's on an 18x7.5 wheel. Even searching online I could only find a handful, none matching the offset. Should have them next weekend, just in time to beat winter up here. Keep doing what you do, Peter! I always appreciate these videos that go into more than, "There are 7 of these little Easter eggs molded into the trim," reviews. LOL I'm still pretty sure that two weeks in I haven't found or adjusted some of the options. It's really quite extensive. The infotainment "quick reference" (English only ... French version is separate) is a good half-inch thick book. Almost half as thick as the entire owners manual!
Hi Peat always a day late and a dollar short lol .We drove our Santa Cruz From Chester Va to Cocoa Beach Florida and back! 2 ,236 miles total according to the Trip computer! It got us home ahead of the Hurricane a day before it hit . Our Cruzer now has 19k on it ! I discovered a new trick she will do . Change Dash colors and save them. I Love the Teal green or blue. The more I drive in the more I Love it. But ! I still hate the frinkin phone wires. My 19 Soul Plus didn't need that
Thanks for your kind words. The latest crop of vehicles have a lot of really interesting technology. There's a lot to learn, but I keep telling people that vehicles are headed to a space that cell phones currently occupy. We can both use the exact same phone, but do very different things with them. In this case, few people are going to need to know ALL of what they can do, but you may really value features A through D and I may really value features C through G. So I like to explain as much as I can so that people can see what matters to them and make an informed decision about the vehicles.
NOT boring [22:47] excellent content - in the U.S., was looking at the Ford Maverick, but I think I just changed my mind. Thanks for the content, great job! Now, I wish I could actually even see one in a showroom, they are sold before I can even get in for a test drive in New Hampshire. Reminds me of the Baja from years ago.😀😀 It was on my Christmas list - new subscriber here cheers!
I'm in the US too and I test drove a Maverick a customer ordered but changed their mind on. If you're looking for utility and price, the Maverick is a decent truck. If you haven't already ordered or found a Hybrid Maverick, you won't be able to order one until August 2022. But the technology in the Lariat model seems dated already. I'm telling you this because I searched for a couple months for the perfect truck, which to my standards was a smaller (than a Ram) truck that's good on fuel and optioned well. After much deliberation and many test drives (Ranger; Maverick; I owned a 1st Gen Gladiator), I just bought a Santa Cruz two days ago. No regrets. If you're on the fence, my advice is go for it.
Really disappointed we didn't get what you got. My next one I am coming to Canada if it doesn't change! It would be worth it. But ! Can I do that Pete. Rely serious! Love Rusty Clarke
Very informative! Wow, I just added a hitch for my motorcycle hauler. I’m so thrilled I won’t have to do anything with the rear shocks to handle a 400lb motorcycle hanging off the back. I didn’t know this before watching this video!
I am in BC and have one on order ($500 deposit). I checked today ( June 22) and was informed I am #146 on the list and should get it in about 2 or 3 months (hopefully 🙄. They said I should be getting a 2023 model..
Interesting. That’s what I didn’t like about the black, I feel like the Black cladding adds to the styling, and you don’t see the contrast as much with the black paint. I bought mine in white, but I know a lot of people who like the Black too!
Did you notice the T-Slots next to the tonneau cover rails down both sides of the bed. You can slide the right size bolts in the rails up next to the cab and use them to mount other accessories.
I did notice those, and I pointed them out in a previous video. I'm still waiting to see actual accessories. We know that the tonneau cover can support the weight of 220 lbs, so that should be plenty strong enough for some cross rails and a bike rack or two. I'm actually surprised that I can't find any accessory companies for this. As I begin to see these in use, I'll start to point them out. As of now, there isn't anything to show, so I'm assuming, like you, that they can be used for accessories, but I want to see the rails in use to make a video about how they're being used, and the potential for what we could see in the future.
I wish I had a dollar for every time someone said it’s a Subaru BRAT. Sigh. Pull up a picture of a BRAT. It looks nothing like it. Besides the BRAT was replaced by the Baja. But nobody remembers the Baja. Non car people just like saying the word BRAT. One legit criticism is Hyundai should have had split fold-down rear seats with a pass-through to the bed. Would’ve eliminated a lot of complaining about the 4’ bed.
Do you have a part number for the mud flaps on that particular SC? I bought factory ones but they’re WAY too small to keep rocks kicking up on the roads I take daily…I need more protection. Thanks!
I am now getting 34mpg with the Filter You don't need a after market Cold air system with this Vechical Hyundai really did their homework. Love yall Pete
Been watching these new car videos since you did the new Tucson and have been more eager to get my OMVIC license started the automotive certification course today
I test drove one at the Owen Sound dealership. Jody was very helpful and let me see if I could fit into it ( I am very tall ) and let me go for a test drive. Loved it but I am an EV guy. When they come out with a FULL EV version then I will be sold. Also no wireless CarPlay with the larger display makes no sense whatsoever. Excellent video and thank you for making this. Much appreciated.
Thanks for watching and for stopping by Owen Sound Hyundai! I've submitted some questions to the Kia head office about the wireless Apple CarPlay situation. I hope to find out more soon.
@@BrantfordKia Do you think it is something as simple as a software update? There are wireless CarPlay/Android Auto adapters out there to add that functionality but who wants a bunch of adapters all over the place when it can be built in. 😁
@@Digikidthevoiceofreason At one point it was told to us that it was a software update. I don't know if that person was mistaken, or if things may have changed, so I'm not sure anymore.
My Limited doesn't have forward warning sensors. It doesn't brake if I approach the car or a pedestrian in front of me. The dealership told me that some Limited's don't have that feature. It's basic. How can I activate it?
My understanding is that many of the initial units went out with blue letter plates (in Ontario) but that they have changed that to reflect that this is an open bed vehicle, and that they will be equipping these with black letter (truck) plates from now on.
I have a 2023 Sonata SEL and i have tried a 256gb,128gb,64gb and a 4gb flash drives from sandisk and PNY ,bot any cheap junk and have formatted with windows file explorer to fat32 and only a few of the songs that are on the drive are recognized. I have wrote to Hyundai and they were quick to respond and told me to see a local dealer and i did that but no one there seems to have an answer to help me . I don't know what to do,i miss having a CD and have thousands of songs on my PC ,but the car audio system does not recognize hardly any of my music.
Went to a dealer and they said oh here's $500 off for military BUT since this is high demand we're adding a $2,500 market adjustment to charge you more. I called another dealership in front the sales person they were not doing that BS so the one I was at lost the sale.
I have a 2022 Santa Cruz Preferred trend and would like to make some of the adjustments you are demonstrating but my menus are not the same as what you show ie vehicle settings. I am in Ontario Canada.
Great informative video! I was wondering, in personal settings, can the seat position and outside mirror settings be saved? Are these mirrors folding? What is the exterior width, including mirrors? Thanks.
In the Santa Cruz, they can't be set as you say. If the car doesn't have memory seats, than it won't save the seating position. The mirrors are MANUAL folding, not power, and to be fair, I don't have the car with me today, so I'm not sure of the exact width with the mirrors. I will have to check next time I have the vehicle.
I thought on the SEL premium and limited trim levels the sideview mirrors, besides being body colored and having integral turn signals were also power folding? If not that's a deal breaker, with all the other tech you'd think that would be a no-brainer
Good job as always thks , ordered one on the 23/09/21 here in Red Deer , how long does a normal order take?, it is the best of both worlds for sure. Test drove it and I could sit behind my wife and I am 6'2". Does the bed extender come stock or can you order one?
Hi Troy, the bed extender is an accessory, you can order it with the vehicle. The last that I checked, an order placed in late August will show up as early as late October. It's tough to predict the wait today. I would assume that it's similar, but the dealer won't be able to be fully accurate until the order is placed and the vehicle receives a VIN. Once the VIN has been created, the vehicle will have an actual production schedule, and the dealer will be able to accurately communicate how long to produce, ship, and deliver the vehicle. I hope that helps!
It's to bad the user settings can't be tied to the key fobs #1, #2... Like my Lincoln does. REALLY to bad there isn't user 1 / user 2 on the door. I love this truck. I have the limited / USA
@@BrantfordKia I wonder if this could be a firmware update? Setting the driver seat position and mirrors to a user profile seems like a no-brainer. Tying user profiles to fobs 1 and 2 again seems like a no-brainer heading into 2022. I love everything about this vehicle but that oversight annoys me.
@@perilouspursuits692 It seems to be available on some cars that have separate seat memory buttons. It seems to be unavailable on vehicles without memory seats.
If I buy one from Canada will it offer the different drive modes and terrain modes will it be based on the km system-metric system or can I configure it for the states since That’s where I live
This is a two-part question. I just want to be clear that it's against the franchise agreement for a Canadian dealer to sell a new Hyundai to a U.S. resident, so that may complicate any plan you were thinking. The last thing is, you can customize the dash to show MPH and miles etc. It won't read identical to the U.S. models, because the DIAL will change to MPH but there will be a digital display that will always read KPH in the dial.
@@BrantfordKia had a feeling it would read that way, as for the dealership aspect wouldn’t be an issue I could have a let’s say a Canadian wife/ family member gift it to me. But that dial kills it for me. Hopefully the US eventually gets a updated model with the various drive/ terrain modes
Do you happen to know what the manufacturer recommended maintenance schedule is? For example, every 10,000 miles or every year (which ever comes first)?
It's best to check your owner's manual. In Canada we follow the "severe service schedule" which is laid out in the manual, but it may be different where you live.
Just bought my new Santa Cruz. Loving it. Drives amazing and the turning radius is great. Question can you load on top of the tonneau cover? If so recommended weight? Love the videos.
The tonneau cover is rated to hold over 200 lbs... But I think there's a difference between "can" you do something and "should" you do something. I'd be careful what you put there. I once considered putting cross rails across the bed using the slots on either side as mounting points. I may still consider that in the future.
Love my Hyundai Santa Cruz I first saw one about 10months ago and knew its whAt I wanted. I’m a 73yo woman getting lots of people asking me about it. My 30something sons love it too. Youve told me a couple things I wasn’t aware of (like locking trunk) so I’m headed out to play with it.

The recirculation function is best for city tunnel use. If you regularly drive through tunnels it will automatically move to recirculation mode.

My understanding is that many of the initial units went out with blue letter plates (in Ontario) but that they have changed that to reflect that this is an open bed vehicle, and that they will be equipping these with black letter (truck) plates from now on.
I have a 2023 Sonata SEL and i have tried a 256gb,128gb,64gb and a 4gb flash drives from sandisk and PNY ,bot any cheap junk and have formatted with windows file explorer to fat32 and only a few of the songs that are on the drive are recognized. I have wrote to Hyundai and they were quick to respond and told me to see a local dealer and i did that but no one there seems to have an answer to help me . I don't know what to do,i miss having a CD and have thousands of songs on my PC ,but the car audio system does not recognize hardly any of my music.
Can't find any info on the transmission is it new or proven technology
what's the best color?
Yall are awesome. Can I buy a Canadian Santa Cruz next time?
How dry does the bed stay when the tonneau is closed? I have guitars and amps...
I got a night edition love it
Now if I can find a Phantom Black Limited anywhere close that the dealership isnt jacking the MSRP I'll be good to go
Our dealers don't charge over MSRP, but I'm assuming that you're in the U.S.
@@BrantfordKia yep
Went to a dealer and they said oh here's $500 off for military BUT since this is high demand we're adding a $2,500 market adjustment to charge you more. I called another dealership in front the sales person they were not doing that BS so the one I was at lost the sale.
@@chanceoneal1258 We don't charge over MSRP at our dealers! I just want to put that out there for customers who may think that we do this. We don't.
Does this have that trailer system that Ford has where you can see behind your trailer while backing up?
Did they add wireless CarPlay to the limited version yet? Or maybe next year?
Does the Homelink allow you to set up different driver's seat position?
I have av23 santa cruze when I'm in normal it switches to snow mode 9n it's own can you tell me why it will do this please
Are there drain plugs in the bed?
Extremely useful video! Thanks a lot
You're welcome!
I have a 2022 Santa Cruz Preferred trend and would like to make some of the adjustments you are demonstrating but my menus are not the same as what you show ie vehicle settings. I am in Ontario Canada.
That's because the vehicle that I'm showing is the Ultimate trim. It has a few more features.
Mine came with Nice Mud guards with my activity package.
I am having a HUGE problem with my radio ID. I tuned to 0 and typed in what's on the screen and it keeps saying my radio ID is wrong. Help! 😢
Why does the remote start not work all the time? Am I doing something wrong holding it?
Great informative video! I was wondering, in personal settings, can the seat position and outside mirror settings be saved? Are these mirrors folding? What is the exterior width, including mirrors? Thanks.
In the Santa Cruz, they can't be set as you say. If the car doesn't have memory seats, than it won't save the seating position. The mirrors are MANUAL folding, not power, and to be fair, I don't have the car with me today, so I'm not sure of the exact width with the mirrors. I will have to check next time I have the vehicle.
I thought on the SEL premium and limited trim levels the sideview mirrors, besides being body colored and having integral turn signals were also power folding? If not that's a deal breaker, with all the other tech you'd think that would be a no-brainer
Why Always the Premium or Limited?
Are there drain plugs in the bed. I know there’s one in the trunk.
Kia has in my opinion the coolest looking key fob
Good job as always thks , ordered one on the 23/09/21 here in Red Deer , how long does a normal order take?, it is the best of both worlds for sure. Test drove it and I could sit behind my wife and I am 6'2". Does the bed extender come stock or can you order one?
Hi Troy, the bed extender is an accessory, you can order it with the vehicle. The last that I checked, an order placed in late August will show up as early as late October. It's tough to predict the wait today. I would assume that it's similar, but the dealer won't be able to be fully accurate until the order is placed and the vehicle receives a VIN. Once the VIN has been created, the vehicle will have an actual production schedule, and the dealer will be able to accurately communicate how long to produce, ship, and deliver the vehicle. I hope that helps!
It's to bad the user settings can't be tied to the key fobs #1, #2... Like my Lincoln does. REALLY to bad there isn't user 1 / user 2 on the door. I love this truck. I have the limited / USA
Yeah, I would have liked it to be tied to the keyfob too.
@@BrantfordKia I wonder if this could be a firmware update? Setting the driver seat position and mirrors to a user profile seems like a no-brainer. Tying user profiles to fobs 1 and 2 again seems like a no-brainer heading into 2022. I love everything about this vehicle but that oversight annoys me.
@@perilouspursuits692 It seems to be available on some cars that have separate seat memory buttons. It seems to be unavailable on vehicles without memory seats.
If I buy one from Canada will it offer the different drive modes and terrain modes will it be based on the km system-metric system or can I configure it for the states since That’s where I live
This is a two-part question. I just want to be clear that it's against the franchise agreement for a Canadian dealer to sell a new Hyundai to a U.S. resident, so that may complicate any plan you were thinking. The last thing is, you can customize the dash to show MPH and miles etc. It won't read identical to the U.S. models, because the DIAL will change to MPH but there will be a digital display that will always read KPH in the dial.
@@BrantfordKia had a feeling it would read that way, as for the dealership aspect wouldn’t be an issue I could have a let’s say a Canadian wife/ family member gift it to me. But that dial kills it for me. Hopefully the US eventually gets a updated model with the various drive/ terrain modes
When is the KIA KIA Truck coming out Please
Merci beaucoup
J’adore tes vidéos
Thank you so much. I wish there was a video like this for every vehicle I own. I have a Porsche that's still kind of a mystery.
I love my Santa Cruz
Do a vid on how to do radio pre-sets
Do you happen to know what the manufacturer recommended maintenance schedule is? For example, every 10,000 miles or every year (which ever comes first)?
It's best to check your owner's manual. In Canada we follow the "severe service schedule" which is laid out in the manual, but it may be different where you live.
Just bought my new Santa Cruz. Loving it. Drives amazing and the turning radius is great. Question can you load on top of the tonneau cover? If so recommended weight? Love the videos.
The tonneau cover is rated to hold over 200 lbs... But I think there's a difference between "can" you do something and "should" you do something. I'd be careful what you put there. I once considered putting cross rails across the bed using the slots on either side as mounting points. I may still consider that in the future.
When is this coming out as a PHEV?
Vem para o Brasil 🇧🇷 Santa Cruz 😍
Will the sand and mud options be available in the US anytime soon?
Unfortunately we don't have access to that kind of information :(
i heard say in another video tha the AC can be set to blow out of other slots on teh dash other than just the main vents.. if that makes sense. u
Does this have auto stop/start?
Thanks for this and props to you!!!
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment! I appreciate it! We have more planned for this vehicle!
Is there any trim model of the Santa Cruz that offers memory for the drivers' seat?
Great video!!
How to get the cube display? Cannot figure it out..
Thanks!
Go to the CLUSTER menu and choose THEMES and it's the 4th theme.
Will there be a manual stick version being offered in a future version of the Santa Cruz?
Not that we know of
