Introducing the 2025 Hyundai Santa Cruz, 🌟 with a mild refresh on the outside and some notable updates in the cockpit. The small pickup truck 🛻 retains its familiar powertrain choices, but today we're focusing on the XRT trim, which has evolved from being just an appearance package to something more substantial.

Under the hood, 🔧 you still have a choice of two engines. The standard 191-horsepower 2.5-liter four-cylinder drives either the front wheels or all four. The more powerful option is the 2.5-liter turbo, producing 281 hp and 311 pound-feet of torque. It's connected to an eight-speed dual-clutch gearbox, and on XRT or Limited trims, the turbo gives you a new towing mode good for 5,000 pounds. 💪

The 2025 Santa Cruz is expected to hit dealerships this summer, 🌞 with pricing to be announced closer to its on-sale date. For reference, the 2024 Santa Cruz starts at $28,275 with destination included, while the top-of-the-line Santa Cruz Limited has a sticker price of $42,695. 💰

But enough from us - we'd love to hear your thoughts! 💭 What do you think about the updates to the 2025 Hyundai Santa Cruz? Are you a fan of the new design or do you prefer the old look?
