The 2024 Hyundai Santa Cruz is a genre-bending compact truck, combining the efficiency, great looks, comfort, and easy handling of a midsized SUV with the utility of a pickup truck. It is offered in five trim levels, so you can pick the one that best suits your style and needs.
Trim Levels of the 2024 Hyundai Santa Cruz
1. SE

Hyundai understands how to do base models right, so expect your Santa Cruz SE to come well-loaded off the line. It eschews the boxy designs of trucks and instead offers a one-of-a-kind, sporty design you’ll fall in love with every day. Under its hood, a 191-horsepower 2.5-liter engine stands ready to power all your journeys, be they on city roads or highways.
Inside its SUV-inspired cabin, you’ll find a well-thought-out interior featuring a premium dash, stain-and-odor-resistant cloth upholstery, and a user-friendly and responsive infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Google Auto integration. In the back, a versatile 4.3-foot composite molded bed plus an under-bed storage compartment provide ample space for hauling family gear or any other essentials you might require.
2. SEL
The next model in the lineup, the SEL, unlocks extra features, including heated side mirrors with LED turn-signal indicators, a push start button, dual auto climate control, heated front seats, and available onboard navigation with real-time traffic updates. It’s also equipped with the Bluelink+ Connected Car Service, which allows you to use your phone to remotely start your vehicle, lock and unlock the doors, and warm or cool the cabin before you even get inside.
3. Night
The Night trim takes the distinctive styling of the Santa Cruz to a whole new level with its sporty, blacked-out theme. From the wheels to the seats, every detail is dressed in black, giving this model a sharp look that stands out on the road. What’s more, the Night trim features a more powerful engine (281 horsepower), wireless charging, paddle shifters, roof side rails, and a tonneau cover to keep your stuff dry and dust-free.
4. XRT
The XRT brings a rugged look and more towing capacity to the Santa Cruz. It builds upon the SEL and adds side steps, a 2.5-liter turbocharged engine, wide fender cladding, bed rails, larger display screens, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and leatherette seats, among other enhancements.
5. Limited
The Limited is the ultimate Santa Cruz experience. It comes with deluxe features, including leather-trimmed seats, a premium sound system, rear USB ports, and ventilated front seats. It is the car to get if you want to go all out.
Fully loaded and ready for action, the Santa Cruz is a top pick for your next vehicle. To see how it performs, contact Coughlin Hyundai of Heath in Heath, OH, for a test drive.
