Other equipment changes include the 10.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system trickling down to the SEL Premium (previously it was reserved for the Limited trim).

However, it now comes standard with a blind-spot monitor and rear cross-traffic alert, which should reduce the sting of the price hike since those driver assists weren't even offered on the SE last year.
Hyundai does increase the starting price of the entry-level SE trim by $1010 to $26,745. There aren't any notable changes to the Santa Cruz for the 2023 model year. Still, the 2023 Santa Cruz shines for its balance of functionality and pleasant driving persona.Ģ Hyundai Santa Cruz STARTING AT: $26,745 What's New for 2023? The SEL Premium and Limited have the best tech and nicest interiors, but they trade fewer physical controls for less-convenient touchscreen buttons and are considerably pricier than the lesser models. While the weaker engine is available with front- or all-wheel drive, the burlier mill pairs only with all-wheel drive it's reserved for the top two trim levels. The engine lineup includes an underpowered 191-hp four-cylinder and an optional 281-hp turbo-four that invigorates the Santa Cruz's performance. After all, the two share a platform and powertrains. Instead, think of it as a Hyundai Tucson compact SUV with a truck bed. But the Santa Cruz isn't trying to impersonate those angry-looking, trail-eating, worksite-mule pickups.
Sure, there are mid-size trucks that can tow more-the Hyundai's max is 5000 pounds-and perform better in the mud and on rocky paths. Whether or not the 2023 Hyundai Santa Cruz qualifies as a true pickup truck is open to debate, but less debatable are its distinctive design and useful cargo box.
