2022 Hyundai Santa Cruz Review – The CUV With A Truck Bed
2022 has marked the return of the "small pickup" in America. While the new Hyundai Santa Cruz and the Ford Maverick might not be as small as some of you has been hoping for, they are smaller, easier to park, and better to drive than any other truck in America right now.
