Which Santa Cruz trim is the best value?

The SEL at $31,400 adds heated front seats, H-Tex leatherette and roof side rails for $1,650 over the SE, which is the smallest step in the lineup for the most added content. Buyers who tow should skip to the XRT, because the 5,000-pound rating requires the turbocharged engine that starts at that trim.

Webb Hyundai Merrillville currently has six 2027 SE units in stock, $33,660 to $34,400 as configured. Inventory in Merrillville and Crown Point moves quickly on this model because volume is limited.
