Overview
The Hyundai Santa Cruz was introduced just last year and has already made a name for itself. Essentially, there are no fundamental changes in the Tucson-based truck for the 2023 model year. However, Hyundai added some more safety and interior features as standard, new paint colors replacing the older shades, and a new Night model. The 2023 Hyundai Santa Cruz price starts at $25,700 for the SE trim and goes up to $40,570 for the Limited trim.
The 2023 Hyundai Santa Cruz Night Edition is priced at $36,060. For the above-mentioned prices and specs, the Hyundai Santa Cruz 2023 joins the list of the best trucks to buy in 2023. The Hyundai Santa Cruz towing capacity is 3,500 pounds and 5,000 pounds with the two powertrains, respectively, competing with the likes of the Ford Maverick, Honda Ridgeline, and Jeep Gladiator.
