=== VERSATILE, WELL-MAINTAINED, NO-ACCIDENT, NONSMOKER, SPORT ADVENTURE TRUCK READY FOR ANYTHING! === This 2022 Hyundai Santa Cruz SEL arrives as one of the more distinctive vehicles on the market, a genuine unibody crossover-pickup hybrid that blends car-like ride comfort with real open-bed utility. It's a formula Hyundai calls the ''Sport Adventure Vehicle,'' and it's carved out a following among buyers who want small-truck usefulness without the size, ride harshness, or fuel economy penalty of a traditional body-on-frame pickup. Front-wheel drive keeps this SEL efficient and easy to live with day to day, ideal for a buyer whose truck-bed needs are more about weekend gear and hardware store runs than serious off-road work. === WHY SHOPPERS BUY THIS MODEL === Buyers choose the Santa Cruz because it solves a real problem: wanting occasional truck-bed utility without committing to the size, ride quality compromises, and fuel costs of a full-size or even a traditional compact pickup. Its car-like unibody platform delivers a smoother ride and more confident handling than body-on-frame trucks, while the integrated lockable bed and available bed extender make it genuinely useful for hauling gear, not just a styling gimmick. The Santa Cruz has also drawn buyers simply looking for something different in a market saturated with look-alike crossovers and SUVs. === AUTOMOTIVE PRESS AND INDUSTRY RECOGNITION === The Santa Cruz was widely covered at launch for carving out an entirely new niche in the North American market, and reviewers have consistently praised its car-like ride and handling relative to traditional pickups, along with the practicality of its integrated, lockable bed storage. It's frequently cited as one of the more interesting and successful attempts to reinvent what a ''small truck'' can be. === WARRANTY === This Santa Cruz shows 58,232 miles on the odometer, and its CARFAX history reflects regular oil changes consistent with attentive upkeep. This vehicle's factory New Vehicle Limited Warranty is set to expire within approximately one month of this listing, on October 20, 2026, based on an original in-service date of October 2021, and it's also within roughly 1,700 miles of its 60,000-mile cap. Given how little time and mileage remain either way, no meaningful factory coverage will realistically carry forward to a new owner, and this should be treated the same as a vehicle with no remaining factory coverage. An extended service plan is worth serious consideration for a buyer who wants protection going forward. === STANDARD FEATURES === SEL trim brings a solid step up in everyday convenience and comfort over the base Santa Cruz, and this particular truck adds a handful of dealer-installed convenience accessories, including a cargo net, mud guards, and wheel locks, small additions that add day-to-day practicality without meaningfully changing the truck's core value. === MECHANICAL FEATURES === The Santa Cruz's unibody construction is the key to its car-like ride and handling, tuned more like a crossover than a traditional pickup while still delivering genuine bed-based utility. Front-wheel drive keeps the drivetrain simple and efficient for a buyer who doesn't need the added cost and complexity of all-wheel drive. === EXTERIOR FEATURES === Finished in Phantom Black, this Santa Cruz wears its distinctive, angular styling with confidence, from its split headlight design to its integrated bed rails. Factory-style mud guards add a practical touch for keeping road spray and debris off the lower body panels. === INTERIOR FEATURES === The cabin blends crossover-like comfort with genuine everyday usability. SEL trim's upgraded materials and features give this Santa Cruz a noticeably more finished feel than the base trim. === INFOTAINMENT & TECHNOLOGY === A touchscreen infotainment system anchors the dash, with standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto keeping smartphone integration simple for daily use. === SAFE
